Yes, you can paste HTML.  That's how it's intended to work.  I did not want to disable this, since it gives ZapRead authors the ability to format their posts in creative ways.  I will, however, disable many of the more undesirable aspects of HTML on comments.  

If I remove HTML pasting all-together, it will really limit authors abilities to make creative posts.

Hopefully this is now fixed.  I'll go back and correct the previous post later.  If you try to paste into a comment, it should sanitize the comment of any "non-complaint" content.  If you paste junk, it will be junk - but prepare for down-votes.

Let me know if it is working or not.

Thumbs up for the Rammstein in the past xD
