  • Uploads Suggestion

    Greetings, I would like to suggest that the upload/ view images section of Apolyton be changed such that checkboxes be introduced so we needn't delete evry file one at a time. I have 60+ tiny files in there, and I want to tidy up a bit. This would make the uploads section alot more user friendly, and possibly lessen whatever load is generated by people deleting things 60 times in 10 minutes.

    Here is a mock up of what you could do (minus the 'DEL' buttons being actual buttons)... then, merely a grand 'delete-all' button at the bottom of the list.

    Thank you for your time and consideration of my request.

    Perhaps a re-hash is more in order than I thought. I am now trying to go through and delete some files... there were a few pics I was illegally hosting before we were told not to do so. I can't seem to get them out of my uploads. I have deleted the same file 6 times only to have it continually be there and still viewable when linked.

    Anyone else having this issue?

        I find 20 MB to be absolutely plenty.

            Thats to cover himself for when whoever looks at his uploads. Yep, something illegal may be there, but he tried to comply with their rules. Intention is 9/10's of Poly law.

                Hi Field Marshal Klesh.

                There are no intentions to modify the "Upload" service interface at any time in the near future.

                Hey Comrade Tassadar.

                The 5MB space limit on individual "Upload" directories will not be increased at this time.

                  What new rule... it's been in place since the beginning
                  Maybe you weren't aware of it... but it has always been the rule.

                    Right. I meant to say there was no "NO illegal files allowed" link promenantly displayed on the uploads page. Of course I never went to this or that rules page to find out on my own.


                    So anyone have ideas as to why I cannot delete any of my files?

                      I did not mean that. I mean let us upload more stuff (such as pictures for the OT ) instead of banning us when we do so

                      My actual request: Let us upload pictures so that we can use them in the OT

                          Use something else than Crapolyton's upload service if you need more space and better reliability. It's that simple.

                              Nahhhhhh... it's ok to have an opinion.

                              but his name is getting added to the "list"

                              And, he is correct that if you need more space, you should use something else
