Can we allow images in the main policy PDF?

I can't even upload a single photo of the fighting or a map of the War in Ukraine, nothing at all

Can you guys seriously just let us post images while the war is still going on?

Thanks!

Honestly, I'm down for that too.

Vinegar?

Please include links for photos and maps, just like everyone else is doing. Otherwise, this thread is going to look like a messy scrapbook...

Personally, I don't quite get why the 'War in Ukraine' was moved over to Politics.

While it was still under the World News section, the discussions stayed at a decent level...
But ever since it shifted to the Politics subforum? It’s been a total disaster, to put it mildly.

And then you have people trying to dump photos and maps right into the middle of all that chaos. 🤦
Has anyone here ever heard of using links?

My question is, why on earth am I blocked from adding images under the policy PDF section? It works fine in some spots, but here? Totally locked out. Why is that?

It's allowed.

You're a legend 🙂 😘

Back when it was just on the general boards, the discussion stayed... well, at whatever level it was.

Oh, really? 😬

Thanks 😁

Back when this was sitting in the World News sub, the level of discourse was... well, let's just say it was manageable.
Ever since they dumped it into Politics, though? It’s been a total dumpster fire, to put it mildly.

Has anyone here ever heard of using links? Seriously.

But weren't you the one constantly complaining about how messy the World News section was getting anyway?

Just wait until Anthony Nguyen81 starts dumping those geography maps of his on you—you’re gonna regret it real fast! 😁

Do GIFs actually work here?

Nicholas Watson said:But haven't you been complaining about the state of this forum nonstop?

Don't you see that the quality of discussion on any topic depends entirely on the people actually participating? In terms of comment quality, this forum is miles ahead of the political boards...
It's not a moderation issue at all.

Come on...

Or maybe it should have just been posted in the Politics & Satire thread instead...
By the way, we really ought to start a dedicated meme thread for the War in Ukraine, since there's honestly no shortage of them online out there...

Open it up, I'm all for it.

Fantastic. Now go ahead and clutter this place up with mindless GIFs and whatever other nonsense you haven't managed to dump here yet.👎

It’ll basically turn into a little children's picture book. 😁

If they don't want to watch, they shouldn't bother.
Some people just aren't built for high-level content—it’s a matter of taste, I suppose. 😁
