I have attachments on (hence my slew of attachment related posts tonight, heh) and the users on my forum are pretty happy about it. Got the bugs worked out, looks good.
One thing I'm very concerned with is brand new accounts being able to attach images. It's not that I care about space, its that someone could sign up, hop into any old forum and attach a bunch of pornography to my server and violate my hosting agreement.
As you can imagine, that'd be bad. I made an announcement that I would immediately ban anyone posting porn, but if it's someone simply out to be malicious, well, you get the idea.
Is there an easy/recommended way to make it so that either users need to be registered for a month or (better yet) have at least 100 posts to attach things?
Love to hear some opinions on this. Thanks very much.
