As you may already see, the forums got an update today and guess what? The Rich Text Editor that has all that JS code that brings our Macs to their knees here on MR is set ON by default.
Here's how to turn it back off!
In any message editing box on the forum you will see a gear at the far right of the editing toolbar. Hovering over it, it will say "Toggle BB Code". Click it. The RTE buttons on the toolbar will all gray out. That switches off the JS code. Kind of a non-intuitive button.
Apparently you can't get rid of the bar, but you can stop the code from executing.
