Infractions

[Jantar]

All I included with the last part of your message (which is still there) was a photo of RC holding a laser. The message from Gremlin was that quoting embedded media is against the rules, but despite me reading a thread he gave as a link, I can't actually see what was wrong.

Never mind.

From the site rules which is a sticky thread in the Site Stuff forum.

Quoting Embedded Images/Media
Quoting posts with embedded images/media is also a big no-no. When replying to posts containing embedded images/media remove the image/media from your quote.

It seems quite clear to me that when you quote a post that you remove the link to embedded content before posting it.

Yes it did

I'm fucking sure when you quoted a post with a attachment... the attachment never transfered with the quote...

Attachments do not transfer with the quote as they are simply referenced. Embeded content does transfer with the quote as it is part of the post. That is why thumbnails are better than embedded as they do not transfer with the quote.

No wonder I got caught out.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhh... right think I got ya, in the old days when you added a attachment in only ever showed up in a thumnail in a seperate box under the post right? where as today I have noticed some times the attachment is like that other times it is in line with the wording, still thumnail size tho... yeah? and thats where the problem is... I think

Leave poor Gremlin alone. He'd have no purpose in life without the imbedded media crusade.

pfft, there's plenty of other rules, it's just that this one is the one people keep breaking.

It should be stored in a cache (temporary storage bin) which is on your computer so when you view the same image twice within say roughly 5 days rather than download it again using band stuff and costing kb money, it just pulls it out of the cache on your computer which costs no one any extra money.

If they're going to get fussy on bandwidth limiting they could/should stop the emoticons from coming up EVERY SINGLE TIME you reply to a thread and get rid of the adverts cause for all the clicks the adverts have got from me, the additional bandwidth to apparently "re-download" would have cost more in bandwidth than what they'd get paid.

Unless for some reason the cache system doesn't work for posts, but does for almost every single other image on the internet.

But the other rules aren't as easy to break ...

Another forum I play on hammers the 'attack the post, not the poster' rule.
Maybe they could introduce that rule here...

First time I got pinged for leaving an embedded image in a quote, I wasn't sure whether it would come through or not. It did. So I came back to remove it. In the few minutes it took to fix the problem, I had been whacked. Somebody must have been looking very hard to see those couple of minutes before correction...eh Hitch?

Infraction, funny little word that. I'd never heard of the damn thing before Kiwi Biker, I've obviously lived a very sheltered life then.

The word infringement is way better I think. It has a certain class to it, more meaning or depth I suppose...
