How about J3 includes a special tag like "J3 flood," or "J3 winrar
post?" That would make it easy to filter out the post. Or you could
just killfile J3.


Strangely enough, that approach has been used, quite successfully, in other
newsgroups.

I propose any picture (this is the sticky part, like you said) over 500KB
should have the letters HR, with a space on each side of them, as part of
the picture title.

Of course, that probably should remain as a guideline, so it does not kick a
picture 20 or 30 KB over the limit, when the other pictures of the series
are nicely under the limit, whatever size is agreed upon

Also, FL could be a designation for any group of pictures that is part of a
flood, defined as any group of pictures over (30 ??) pictures.

Just an idea that could help resolve the current strife.


Anything that allows freedom of choice while ensuring ease of
downloading/viewing is a step in the right direction...

It would seem there are "format warriors" who would prefer battle to
resolution, alas.
