Images support in answers
4
Ability to add images to an answer.
This was live for all of 10 minutes until someone started posting NSFW pictures in all the questions. Had to turn it off and change the logic.
Now only users with at least 50 karma points will see this option.
Update 3/7/14:
We're coding logic to automatically recognize if a posted image or link is NSFW. Image support be turned back on when that is live.

Interesting - make me curious. I assume the "user" in question had an account - what was the purpose, spam? Click through images? Do you think it was a bot? Does this raise questions about other functionality/security?

Spam was the issue -- the person created a dummy account and started posting a banner ad linked to a NSFW site.

Had a bunch of things planned to fight spam programmatically. I guess they need to moved up the priority list (especially since the site came close to being hammered a few hours ago from HackerNews).
