How large is your attachments directory?

I'm curious, especially for those of you with larger boards that make heavy use of the attachments feature, how much space does your attachments directory take up? Do you do anything special to store it? I have a client with 1.7TB of attachment files, and they are paying quite a bit in monthly fees ...

Re: Discuss: phpBB Collective

Who designed the original Bertie bear? I have no experience in this sort of thing but I would be willing to try and help some how. The designer was a former team member. The company who made them isn't interested in making a run of fewer than 1000, unfortunately. I sent a message to a couple compan...

Re: Discuss: phpBB Collective

Bring back Bertie !!! I’ve always wanted one, I feel as though after the warehouse flood things came to a halt and obviously never returned which is a shame and easy way to raise cash money. I'm interested in doing another run, and have explored this possibility (admittedly not super recently). The...

Re: What is the Future of phpBB?

In short, everything revolves around money. Maybe phpBB should do the same as WordPress: wordpress.org wordpress.com They wont take money, ref my donation of 50k USD turned down. However, they will take Endurance Group's/Newfund Digital's money without explaining why and their connection. Hi, I don...

Re: Template variables: Groups

Feel free to create a ticket in the phpBB tracker if you feel it would be a useful inclusion in the software. ;) I submitted this to the tracker a while ago. But you will be kept informed, whether this will be built in or not. Because actually there is no real reaction to it. I don't even know if i...

Re: phpBB.com Website Feedback

We are trying to get it finished as soon as possible. But possible is not always the as soon as we really want. “Nothing someone says before the word ‘but’ really counts.” George R.R. Martin I might be wrong about your intentions, but this kind of post doesn't serve any purpose other than to spread...

Re: Who is the founder and owner of phpBB? What will happen next?

Marshalrusty, would you support the idea of doing a short interview with you? I invite the moderators to create and post in a prominent place a new topic in which any member of the community can ask their questions to you as the phpBB leader. At the beginning of next year, the moderators could choo...

Re: Who is the founder and owner of phpBB? What will happen next?

If there is phpBB Limited, an organization that owns the phpBB trademark, then it is no longer an individual, but an organization. I return to WordPress again, their management company Automattic Inc (in our case, the analogue is phpBB Limited) managed to keep the product free, but there are also p...

Furthermore, I have said before that I, personally, welcome folks to PM me directly if there is a specific matter that requires attention and you believe is being overlooked. You know this is the case, because you have done so, and I have always responded to you. I do not remember having PMed you h...

Re: What is the Future of phpBB?

I have said before that I, personally, welcome folks to PM me directly if there is a specific matter that requires attention I would take issue with that comment.

Re: What is the Future of phpBB?

So I can share my opinion and experience, and you're welcome to tell me if it matches yours at all. Sometime around 2004, while in high school, I started a phpBB forum for around 20 of my friends. We used the forum, much in the way people now use Facebook, to talk about everything from video games t...

Re: What is the Future of phpBB?

I am amazed that there is still no authoritative response from the administrators. You can be certain that many team members and community members have read through this topic and considered what has been said. The whole point of having a discussion is to exchange viewpoints ; if you make good poin...
