Hi
Has anyone thought of removing this limitation?
Reasons
1. It's annoying
2. .exe can be just as harmful, infact the .exe 's code is hidden from view
3. Easy to circumvent by packaging in a .zip or asking users to rename the file upon downloading
If you think it's dangerous then is it possible for either;
users with > 200 posts are allowed to upload .bat / .cmd files
team members are allowed to upload .bat / .cmd files
Thoughts?
Also a bit of personal background, I've had a large amount of files accidently deleted by a community plugin that is in the respository, whereas I have never had any files deleted by a community forum hosted script
