    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

Photo evidence in BOI has not been provided via the file attachment function

One Infraction point expiring in 365 days. No warning.

Members posting photos and screenshots as evidence need to do so using the file attachment procedure in their posts. Anything that is linked to an external source is subject to being removed at will by the poster, or possibly negated if the photo hosting service ends the ability to link to those photos from another site.

Once such evidence vanishes, then the entire thread can then be compromised and made pretty much useless to readers.

This is a long existing policy that, no matter how many times we post in threads, simply continues to be ignored. (I realize that, in most cases, people are simply ignorant of the policy...but there are some that continue to use photo hosting services on the BOI after being told to how to attach the images.) The Rules for posting on the BOI thread has been amended by Rich to include a notice of this; and I have updated the list found in the "Updates to the infraction system" thread (a sticky thread in this forum).
 
Just to point out - there has been an instructional post on how to attach photos stuck here since 3/2012
