Image Restrictions

Currently we have a limit to the amount of images we can post, the limit being three.
I understand it was implemented to limit the amount of image spam.

Effective in trade forums & general chat forums, but not effective in forums such as Computer Help, Photography, Donor Forums and several others.
I suggest a option just like the Red-Bold-Italic titles to allow you the option to buy more than the three images per post, at a price (forum gold)
Make the price high enough it doesn't get abused, and those who require it will pay the price.

Thanks Rave :p

Edit times

Once again, if we can implement a option to buy the right to edit out thread/post for a price.
Im clueless why this hasn't been implemented yet as its a massive problem in all trade forums and within any threads that require changes to be made throughout time.

The situation in all trade forums currently is a user makes a thread with a list of buying/selling of items - that user will obtain certain items and it will be too late to edit the original post.
This creates more topics, more posts and more confusion within threads. how often have you looked at a Sellers thread, seen something you want in the first post and then scrolled down only to find out the list hasnt been updated due to edit times?

Give us the option to edit out threads, if only the original. Once again make the reasonable enough to keep the abuse low.

This always applies to other forums where information needs to be regularly updated, Help threads & stickies from members.

Now you may jump to conclusions about this - may lead to scams? Nope.
Several other forums i regularly post on have this function to constant edit your threads/posts and also allows the community to view to original & edits - thus full proof.

Voted no for both.

If you have more than 3 images at times, just post the direct link and saying what that link contains will work perfectly fine.

Too many images per page will create additional bandwidth, and those with decent amounts of FG are plentiful, so the bandwidth could be greatly increased. This is one of the reasons there is a KB limit for signatures; bandwidth. The image sizes can be quite large, so limiting to 3 helps keep the number as minimum as possible for bandwidth. As far as the edits go, they are like such to create consistency for the event of a scam. The trades are all stated and will not vary much if only 30 minutes is given to edit the post.

Voted no, sorry.
