When i try to post my new turn on the DAR/AAR forums to continue my PBEM game with Gary Tatro...Exporer goes to a blank white screen and the title bar reads "Matrix Games Forums Database Error" ??? I've tried deleting my cookies and signing on and off the forums a few times but nothing seems to work.... Am i the victim of arcane voodoo spells and curses? :eek:

Status: offline 		i figured it was because i was trying to post PBEM turns for the H2H stalingrad level (the 60 turn masterpiece by jess)....and they were over 1mb

so that explains the crashing

Status: offline 		The upload limit has always hovered around 500kb(for normal users), but when the file is too large it shouldn't crash what should happen is the thread/reply will get posted without the attachment. I'm still waiting on word from David Heath on some of the forum changes as the other administrators said they haven't altered anything.:confused: :confused: :confused: (3)

Status: offline 		Common problem with the new forum version. Upload limits for normal users is ~500kb you might be able to push it to ~600kb but not much more. The white screen of death has been upchanneled to the powers that be. If an attachment is too large the post is still suppose to be posted just minus the oversize attachment.;) 1

Status: offline 		Only 500 - 600 kbs?
Thats not to friendly for a game over maybe 5000 - 6000 points... :(
Especially if you have to move a bunch of things and the rec file swells!

If it could be bumped up to a max of 700 kbs, I think that should accomodate most of the larger (~10,000 points) battles...at least from what I have seen in my own zip file sizes...

Please, please, please, please please?

You can even keep the smily limit at 3!
