Are the attachment and PM limits gone?


Recommended Posts

One thing that had always worried me was that I was going to run out of space for attachments or PM's on this forum. As I'm not constantly active here, I didn't think it was worth buying a premium subscription. However recently I decided to check how full my PM mailbox was, and I couldn't find the indicator. Same with attachments; in fact just now the button to upload an attachment wasn't working so I clicked the link to use the basic uploader, and it says "You can upload up to Unlimited of files (Max. single file size: 50MB)". It doesn't mention a maximum combined size for all my attachments though. So are these limits gone? If so, that's certainly a change I appreciate!

So when there was a premium option, I think the limit was 10MB total for all attachments, for non-premium members.  I don't think code repository, or PMs was included in that limit but I could be wrong.  If you go to your "My Settings" then click on "Manage Attachments" you'll see the attachments I mean that were part of the limit.  I was getting close to that limit when I became a moderator which had unlimited, and same for premium at the time.  

 

I assume if there is no limit shown in the Manage Attachments page for normal members, then that means there is no limit.  Or rather no practical limit, if you upload 2TB of VIs I'm sure Michael might do something about it.
