  2. Our gif only content threads have a rule where all thumbs must be posted as a static thumbnail that does not play. Currently imagebam made a change where they no longer produce static thumbs. Therefore, please do not use imagebam, or any host, that provides live playing gifs in those specific threads. If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    I know exactly what you mean, because I've encountered the same problem with downloading as you mentioned before. Another thing is that when some people post adds to a thread they don't always request a title edit noting the fact. I try to audit each thread looking for adds - especially when there's a major event like an awards show - and pro-actively modify titles when necessary but I don't catch them all. I'll give it some thought and address the issue soon.

    If I read the posting rules correctly then the following post should have one of the mandatory file hosts in addition to Rapidgator.

    http://forum.phun.org/showthread.php?t=983554

    I'm not sure of the procedure with this, does one of the Mods contact the poster to get this rectified or should I have PM'd him/her regarding this?

    Still a Noob when it comes to some things here :)

    Really?

    Guy's been a member of this forum for 4 years and has nearly 2,500 posts and he doesn't know the rules.

    1. Has 2 of the mandatory hosts, but has 3 optional hosts. The rules clearly state that the hosts are on a "one-for-one" basis; one optional host per mandatory host.

    2. For 3 of the hosts he used, he left the file in one; for the other 2 he split them up. The rules clearly state that the same split has to be done for all hosts. Either all hosts have to be in one part or all of them have to be in split parts.

    3. The file is only 267mb, there should be no reason for the file to be split. Unnecessary splitting is against the rules.

    And according to this post, he initially didn't even have file specs or any mandatory links.

    Honestly, this post has to be the worst blatant violation of rules that I've ever encountered in my time here. And this is coming from a user who should know a LOT better.

    Actually, the only violation was the additional zippyshare links. Mediafire now enjoys a file splitting waiver [in the rules] because free users can do simultaneous downloads while non-paying users have a 200 Mb limit before splitting is necessary.

    Second pic in this thread:

    http://forum.phun.org/showthread.php?t=76424&p=6843227&viewfull=1#post6843227

    is from piclambo, which we all know is:

    ...A subsidiary of port-a-shit.

    Not the first time 'pathol' has done it, either.


    (Notice the first pic is from imagevenue, to supposedly lull you into a false sense of familiarity...) :mad:

    Ya know, I get the impression that some of these folks may be the same guy, just with multiple accounts here... :rolleyes:


    Just sayin'. ;)
