Dear scanlovers,
Due to the upload/attachment problem that happened recently in the forum, we have realized that our forum is running out of space. Fortunately, we have solved it by executing the pruning process in the forum. However, it's only for temporary. As we know, while the forum is growing up, with the addition of the new contributors and new materials that showing up days by days, we all know that the forum will be facing the same problem again in the future, soon or later, it's just a matter of time. Although we can't stop this upcoming issue, we can actually slow down the problem by running some attachment protocols in the forum. Scanlover, the term means people who love the scans. Scans in here would be refering to pics/images/photos. As most of you have already knew, that scanlover forum's main goal is always about sharing quality pics of asian girls. Looking into the past, we know that sharing pics would never be an easy task to do, due to the possibie issues like hotlinking, ad links, expired images, banned links, etc etc. That's why scanlover has decided to develop the attachment system so that everyone can share their pics easily without worrying about the expired issues. Granted. Other than the pics, there's lot of thing that we can do with the attachment system. Recently, members are start using the attachment to upload bigger files such as video clips, rar & zip files, from the range of 1mb-50mb. Well, we allowed it since the forum is about sharing stuff and there's no reason why we should stop it. However, that's the past. Right now, we are facing the full disk problem and we all are awared of the risk that the space will be used up very soon if we don't take some precautions about this. Therefore, we have made an important decision. Hence, I would like to make the announcement in here. From now on, attachment system can only be used to upload image files (jpg,png,gif), and torrents As for materials such as video clips, screensavers, music files, pic sets, rar/zip files and other similar files, members should not upload them into the attachment anymore. Instead, members should use the other hosting sites to share those bigger files in the forum. I know this protocol will make some members feel uneasy especially those contributors who been using attachment to upload their video clips and pic sets frequently. But please try to think about it. Forum is built for all people. In order to survive, certain sacrifices have to be done. Scanlover forum is founded, started by beautiful girl pics. And this place is unique due to the attachment system. Therefore, we will always keep the priority for the images. This is a difficult situation for us as we are facing the most common problem that any forums would encounter. One day, we may find an ultimate solution to this, hopefully. Until that day is coming, we will take any neccessary methods to slow down the full disk problem effectively. So I hope that all members can cooperate with us and together to follow this new attachment protocol. Thank you. Regards, Scanlover Staff Team.
