I thought the Moderator explained it pretty good and had logical reasons.

You could always start your own forum and apply your own rules.


Yea, I know...It is very frustrating though.
But asking again doesn't get a different answer.
I am curious though that of ALL these forums you cite, how many of them have anywhere near the traffic this one does? I'm sure Tom can update this number exactly, but I recall the 1,000,000th post being discussed recently. And how many total reads do you supposed that makes? (I have no idea, but it's probably x10 the postings)

The throughput and crash problems are well known by all, but that's a helluva lot of stored and retrieved data by any measure.


I give you one right here this is the snowmobile forum that I belong to. If you scroll to the bottom it shows the forum statistics. There are almost 4,000,000 posts!!!! and they seem to be able to handle things quite well.

I am not bashing RV.net, but there are better ways.....

Why don't you post the pictures you want on the snowmobile forum and just link to that post here?

I really fail to see what the big deal is anyway. Open a FREE account at something like PHOTOBUCKET and either post the link as a link, or use the handy little picture poster button in the menu and the picture will show up in the message.

Example:
EASY
or


Both come off my Photobucket page so I can post things on ANY forum, but still keep them all in the same place for organization. Just makes sense.


(edit: my easy button blowed up..)
