Why I can't use attachmeents or create an album w/my pictures?

[VeroK]

In the FAQs says both are possible but when I login the bottom left corner says I may not use attachments, and the userPC does not include for me the option to create an album... What are the rules for this?
Thank you!

Due to the potential for abuse, attachments are limited to use by the mods only. If you want to include images in a post, upload them somewhere like Imgur and then use the IMG tag to embed them.

Yea sadly people abuse this and I see it on alot of sites!!

I guess its understandable Virge why you have it limited to staff only....


What ya could do is take the reg long time members (In the reg member group (Senior Member for example)) who dont do that and allow them attachments.. (They wont cause problems for you)

I dont know how much space you have on the computer running this site,that has to be considered also........

Yes, they will.

We have plenty of Lifers and people beyond Lifer status who abuse the forums.
