Increasing attachment limits

Post by Nawdic »

Morning all,
I propose an increase in the maximum attachment limit, as I have found that some people are really unnecessarily double or triple posting with more or less pictures/items of the same subject, so an increase to about 10 attachments would suffice for me and everyone else.
Very much a retired regular poster..... If you can say that :mrgreen:

Multiple posts with attachments don't bother me, most of the times it happens in screenshot forums.

Do you have examples of those practises outside the screenshot are?

I would prefer to leave the limit as 3 to keep things manageable; multiple posts for the purpose of posting more attachments is acceptable and not something we will complain about.

To be honest, it really isn't if you are posting stuff about the same subject. It just makes everything look untidy, in my opinion, when you double/triplepost.

Hyro - a prime example would be the UK Bus topic in Locomotiom Mods section.

We should smoke him out then, but this gets a bit offtopic. :P
