    Announcement Disabling Direct Messages in the forums

    You've been provided answers and the reasoning. You just didn't like them or agree with them. Which is perfectly fine. However, it's not going to change the laws.

    Wouldn't matter where the servers were, as long as the site remains open to UK residents it applies. Denmark is also working to implement similar rules through an expansion of the EU Digital Services Act (DSA).

    Tour de France Tour de France 2025: Stage-by-stage analysis

    That makes sense because of how some of the images are being linked. As an example, the Climbfinder links shouldn't really be linked here eg: https://image.climbfinder.com/mont-des-cats.png?v=1644589780, they should be downloaded and hosted elsewhere, somewhere like Imgur or another image...

    Tour de France Tour de France 2025: Stage-by-stage analysis

    What server errors are you encountering? I'm guessing they are stemming from the length of your posts and the amount of images you are inputting since there are character and image limits.

    Big spam attack

    Do let me know if you run into any issues with it however, there's still room for adjustment for sure. I just wanted to have a starting point in there and if we need to adjust from there, we can certainly do so.

    Announcement Forum Migrations - 4/27

    Sorry, I thought I put the fix in place here but I guess not. I actually worked with Xenforo to fix it. It's in place now. Keep in mind, the fix only works if the images were associated with an IMGUR account and IMGUR didn't remove them.
