Asusboards Bandwidth Problem

One quick post before I go off to bed. :ZZZ:

With all the mess that's been going on today, one of the main things CJ mentioned as an issue was bandwidth. One quick and easy soltuion to at least begin helping is to remove images from signatures.

I removed the images from my signature and if you would like to help out with the AB bandwidth problem, please remove images from your signatures.

Just an idea to help.

was wondering about that, should we also remove our folding banners, and what about the avatars?

Yep, as long as signatures are not hosted on the asusboards server, then they aren't going to affect the bandwidth at all.

That's right. But in any case where you have uploaded a file to AB, you can link to it on another server instead and that will help.

Yes, you are fine!

I've posted a suggestion about disabling file attachments here, inspired by this thread.

I just want to do my part. I killed my cheetah, so I hope P.E.T.A. doesn't come looking for me. Thanks KT.
