Assume 100,000 users all have 70kb sig, that equates to 7gb
100,000 users with 150kb sig we are at 15gb
Are you going to look at 100,000 signatures a day? Most likely not but over a month of time even a few measly kilobytes add up and would slow things down. But to be fair I have no horse in this race either way, so my opinion is useless.
E: it’s not just about the end user data, but the website performance as well
this is one nice example.
to add another, here is a user who has a total profile size of about.. 23 MB (here id like to stress that 23 MB = 23000 KB which would equal about 153 users who all
have a signature of size 150 KB.
https://forums.d2jsp.org/user.php?i=379941(the profile gif alone has a size of 18 MB. i have reported that profile to several different staff group members
and they still havent done anything about it. when
No's mainly come from them, i expect them to take action
against such violations
immediately since increasing size of things is a big taboo / mistake - according to their posts / arguments in this suggestion. but no, users are free to walk around
with these oversized profiles while when someone is making a suggestion to allow a few more kilobytes (!) for user signatures, some responsible staff group members are
against it because they eat up "so much" data volume of users. your reasoning here is a contradiction to your responsibilities and rules in my opinion - i honestly cannot understand your dislike for this suggestion~)
