Attachment size has been increased to 16mb.

Hey everyone,

We've changed some restrictions regarding attachments here. First of all, you can now attach up to 6 files per post and the size of attachments were increased to 16mb. There is a high chance that this size will get increased to 32mb soon, as long as the server handles it. Also, there is no attachment quota for anyone, even for private messages. Have fun.

Was it necessary?
Don't get me wrong, it's nice to have such a high limit, but wasn't the old one enough too? Not that the server soon reaches its limits.

How much space do you have on the server? PPM must have reached already several gigabyte, if not even terabyte.

I think it is useful, so people can upload bigger files. And I've figure out that the upload limit is indeed 32mb.

Regarding PPM, it uses more than 20gb of the server (the forum attachments alone are 12gb, TI alone uses more than 6gb). However, the server still have a lot of free space, so everything is alright.

i had already a queasy conscience with my 20mb big megamap previews on my ftp, but if the limit is really that high, then it's nice. Smile

wow, didn't know that TI is already that big. Surprised
