Possibly a user group error, contact a member of the BoD (http://www.steamgamers.com/bd-members.php).

The error says that [File] has exceeded the quota of [number] MB.

there's your answer then, your file is too big. I think the maximum is 10MB. Try uploading to rapidshare (http://rapidshare.com) or sendspace (http://sendspace.com) then post the link.

Here's exactly what it says.

spamzor.dem:
Exceeds your quota by 2.39 MB. Click here to view your attachments

Bullfuckingshit!!! It's only 1.50 MB!! And then the screenshot is 113 KB! WTF?!!!!

No Daze, his problem is that every player/admins/whatever has a certain limit to the amount of files he can have attached throughout the whole place. He exceeded that limit throughout all his posts, so he can no longer put attachments down.

so.. why is this? sure, it prevents spam, but it also prevents people for reporting people :P Altough it can be fixed, like MrGall said, but it is easier to remove it? or is this something that has to be limited?

In the end, the preventing spam outweighs preventing people for reporting, as the reporting it is fairly easy to keep it going as it only takes a few seconds to upload and delete attachments.

I believe no one can upload anything. It was taken off. It will still show how much you have uploaded though.

There is megauploads, rapidshare, and many other sites you can upload and link to. The limit is there for file space.

What about 6 months down the line when the person appeals and there's no demo proof of anything because it's expired via rapidshare/sendspace etc. ?

Daze: Usually higher ups will still have the demos saved and even if they don't, the players do or the curious admins who wanted to see what's going on will.

OK to fix this...go to your User CP and go down to Miscellaneous and then attachments. This will show you every attachment you've ever added to the forums. Clean out the old shit you've attatched and you should be back to being able to attach stuff. Please keep this clean and you shouldn't have problems. Ultimatly if you upload stuff to 3rd party sites a much as you can that will help us out greatly. It will make our forum work faster and not have issues if everyone keeps up on this.
