Would Amazon Associates etc fall into this category, or just ads on the subs?

Do you mean that they are security concerns as in malware, or do you mean manipulation by the mods? Those posts seem to be about manipulation. I think @BBQue was talking more about security concerns.

I'm proposing a general idea but we would have to work out the specifics before implementing it. And I think you're absolutely right manipulation needs to be a top concern. Maybe have an Admin be top mod and be the only one responsible for the actual posts that could be profited from? Does anyone know if there a way to have a completely transparent Admin dedicated to this task...like private messages on display and everything?

What do you think might prevent that kind of abuse?
