Subject: Do You Think We'll Ever Get The Privilege To Post Pictures?

Posted by: Khirna
Images take up more space than text. I assume the site's servers can only handle so much traffic, and since everything since the dawn of time on this site is documented, everyone spamming pictures (which is what I think would happen in first month) would start slowing the site down.

Again, I do not claim to know of these things, that just seems to be the logical conclusion in my mind.
Possibly, but that's why CDNs exist, so images themselves aren't stored/served in the same place as the forum data.

Yes Costco. I need a 50lb bag...I mean sack of sugar.

Gotcha. That would keep my scenario from happening.

Still, I don't think the vast majority of members on the site can be trusted with embedding privileges. Really makes me sad that that is the case too.

I'm going to throw this out there even though I know it's probably beaten. Never. With the gross abuse of even linking that has been displayed around here the last thing I want to read through is hundreds of posts of genitalia or what not.

I firmly believe this site is better off the way it remains with the potential to give users some perks to work towards but nothing of the means of remote freedom to do as they please. Remember where many believe they will be responsible it only takes one to screw it up for all.

Yeah this is pretty much my opinion as well.
