    New Attachment Host

    Not that I used the prev attachment procedure alot, Iv noticed thrs a new "host" ala Image$hack for all the images we choose ta
    Well Image$hack TOS clearly states no nudity, pornography, or pics of the like, so Im a little confused as to using them as a host ? Dont the posts in certain sections here have all of that ?

    Just wondering but not something I plan on utilizing neway

    TY

    Thats a good question, I just read it and at least it sounds to me like not only will they delete the image but they might ban the domain the image was used on, that sounds like we could all end up getting fucked real /> All the people who used it to make posts will lose their images which mean the mods will be deleting a ton of dead/broken />
    if anyone has a answer to these questions, i'd liked to hear

    yeah, I doubt image shack will take any extreme action, they will most likely just ban this forum from using there hosting service, like they have with many other nudy /> over on the phun forum we use imagevenue and have done for a while, maybe it will be worth while switchin to them b4 we have an insane amount of dead links and evil yellow frogs!

    The thing I don't like about using the host is that you don't know how many views something

    I like to see if alot of people look at my posts, if they do I can post more of the same (if I have If nobody looks at them, I don't need to bother posting more for nobody to look />
    Just my two cents

    EXACTLY!!!
    This is one further very important (perhaps the most important) point also for This feature was the fun & satisfaction factor! I loved it to look back after some days so that I can see how often my pics are viewed or how often my files are 100 is for me the magic number; when I saw a pic from me over 100 times viewed I felt very happy and that (!!!) is the motivation to post more in this Now these hosted files have for me a kind of sterile nature; they are there and nothing changes, nothing tells me />

    I was talking about after everything is already I was imagining that one page of a thread has 20 or more posts and each of these posts has around 40 hosted preview images (this sounds exaggerated but is easily For letting display this page I have to wait a long time (much longer than before as it was always around 20 seconds) and surely not all preview images will be shown, maybe only around 60% of Ok, my example says now 800 images, but also with fewer like 100 it would be a similar />
    Thanks idspud for agreeing with that it would be better to get back to the old ways; hopefully our words will cause Unfortunately I have no news yet, but

    I agree with pretty much everything that you guys have said so I always checked the count on the pics that I posted to see what guys were looking For me that is I have over 3000 posts and on so many threads that I can't count them anymore and the number of pics that I posted was always contingent on the number of guys who wanted to see />
    Horsty is It is a bit of a thrill to post a pic that is viewed hundreds of Sometimes you find a pic or two on the web and you just know that it will be a big hit so you rush to the forum to see if you can be the guy who posts it />
    For me this has been the best forum on the web for two big 1 - each girl has her own You find that thread and you find every pic and video that have been posted from the beginning of the You don't have to search the entire forum for the multiple threads on that 2 - the forum hosts the pictures so that a month or two down the road there are no dead Nothing makes me madder in searching another forum for pics than to find an older one that I really want and then find that it is no longer That is especially true of files and

    I post a lot of full sets of Like Horsty I have a slower computer with dialup and it is work to get them on here (but a lot of fun I'll be damned if I want to go to all of that work just to see it evaporate a month or two later because most of the guys have already accessed What about newer members? Nothing could be less fun that having to go back and />
    I know of no other forum that has those two advantages so that is However, if the admin does not get the board back to something more like normal I guess that I would have to say that I have posted my last

    I must agree The thrill of seeing one of my posts downloaded hundreds or even 1000+ times is something Without it I have no particular desire to

    Posting from a dial up connection that races at 2-3 KBps is a complete pain in the arse, but seeing how many times that posting has been viewed (even if there are no replies or thanks posted) makes it a worthwhile pain in the arse! I am a member at more than a few boards/forums, none of which have the same "feel" this, so how do we go about getting it back to how it was? What are the real issues, storage, bandwidth, hosting expenses? Surely we can make a plan?
    I feel the same way about Image$hack and Rapidshare as Bill (sorry about the stolen puke ) feels about his beloved WinRAR

    While significant progress was made on the server disk situation, there was not enough time to finish the whole A safe stopping point was selected, and the remainder of the process will likely be attempted in 14-16 />
    While this might seem like a long time, it is the best that can be worked out at this
