I just noticed that you can't attach a file or picture to a PM. Is this the default setting or was there a specific reason for picking that setting? Ed |

My guess is: in a regular forum post the file is used by many people. In a PM, it is by just one. Space on the EEVBlog servers is limited, so attachments in PMs are disabled, because they need space, while few people benefit from it. Also frequency. |

My best guess is that it stops any possible piracy via the blog and therefore rendering dave being held responsible |

I don't want the forum server filled up with private message attachments, sorry. |

I just noticed that i can have max 5 messages in my in/outbox. In 2018 that seems to be reaaaaallllyyyyy low.... I understand that the same logic applies here too (discuss in the boards rather then via PM) but it's still really bad... can't that be higher? |
