Re: Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached

I have deleted some attachments (as has LK) and can now attach some more if desired. Is there a fix for this down the road though? The error message indicates it is a limit for the "board," which is what kromelg indicates as well with "the forum has a limit."
What if this was a new user who wanted to add a screenshot with a question? They wouldn't have any attachments of their own to delete. Word might be put out and some regular forum users could delete some things (PM attachments count too), but there are a number of users who wouldn't do so, or who are no longer around to do so.
My guess is that this issue gets revisited down the road when the overall limit gets reached again, unless there is something that can be done without relying on users to voluntarily patch the problem.
