Not a perception, but rather proven solid posts way back in CNA forum when Allco was going downhill just after IPO. I hv a good memory, but only on selective stuff and this is one of them (how we used to rib some of the gurus over there) ... :lol:

ps: hey can use more than 3 smileys here

Wow! Great! But I noticed that some of your nicks hv changed, prob min. need 5 chars. So, exchanged one limitation for another

Gurus? You mean the shorties like that chap "cxrr lxng" and his cronies who were spreading malicious lies about Allco then... it was really hilarious! :lol:

Good thing I had your help then to run circles around them... my seemingly solid posts (which I exaggerated of course) were just meant to frustrate those fellows and call their bluff..

OK lah, let us know if you are in need of donations to help support your hosting plans with adequate bandwidth...

btw, disappointed that a s/w wiz like u can't get around the 5 characters minimum for username limitation, forcing me to add a tail to mine

LOL... actually (1) I'm not a s/w wiz lah... and (2) the username limitation is .... *erm* ... put in by me. *Ducks for cover* :mrgreen:

wtf

... and 25KB limit for avatars too i guess

by **blid2def** » Mon May 12, 2008 1:09 am

Just call it IT guy's insecurities about security. 25K for avatars is usually decent enough (the default is 6K!) for a pic so small - can't remember the limit I set, 96px or 128px square. Unless one uses an animated gif.

Oh.

by **mojo_** » Mon May 12, 2008 1:16 am

yeah, i was really struggling even with the 40K limit at the other forum to squeeze in animated gifs and had to downsize the color quality, duration and size as well...

by **blid2def** » Mon May 12, 2008 1:28 am

Split this out from the Allco REIT thread as it was going OT haha. Since it's got to do with usernames & avatars, it's now placed in the Requests & Bugs forum.

Anyway, sorry about that mojo. Disk space isn't a luxury I have at the moment, so where I can squeeze, I squeeze.

We're not tipping over yet, but I'm just being prudent right now in managing it and monitoring the growth of consumption. Hehehe. When things are a bit looser, I can then relax some clamps.
