Please stop quoting pictures

Post by neon_chameleon »

Hey everyone, us mods have noticed that there are rather a large amount of picture quoting going on across the categories on the forums.

There isn't a strict rule against it par se, but please refrain from doing so. Please feel free to post pictures when they'd be consider either informative or humourous (something which jamin earns honours for) in a particular thread, but please avoid from quoting them. We know they are precached, but some 56K users are battling and also to have 20 pages to go through of picture quoting isn't pleasant at all.

If you have any questions on how what to do instead, please post here or pm one of the mods. The correct manner would be to :

1. Quote person's name and say "rofl @ pic"
2. Or write the picture's name in the post, file name or subject matter of the picture is fine.
3. Would be great if you would use italics of the name of the pic.

Oh please use imageshack or photbucket for large images. ie. greater than like 500x500.

Oh also this multiple quoting with these "same here" (some of you guys know what I mean) kinda stuff, is not on.

Regards

Neon, on behalf of mods. Topic suggested by jee, thanks jee.
