greenjoe Posted October 5 Posted October 5 (edited) Recently, Imgur has blocked access to users in the UK. This of course proves problematic for flavor text images (and records and stuff too) uploaded there, as players in the UK won't be able to see it. While a VPN can bypass this block, that isn't viable when playing on the server due to VPNs leading to false bans. While I do not imagine a formal suggestion will get accepted, I'm putting forth a request to those who do have flavor text uploaded on Imgur to upload it to another location. I have done some testing and it appears the forums can work as a location for this, including the gallery section. Edited October 5 by greenjoe 4 Quote
Arbiter_Ambrose Posted October 5 Posted October 5 Oh, so that is why I can't see those links huh. Quote
goolie Posted October 5 Posted October 5 Copy the imgur link and paste it into discord and the embed isn't blocked. Easiest way to view other people's links. Use imgbb, imageshack or postimages.org if you can't access imgur! 3 1 Quote
Fyni Posted October 6 Posted October 6 As a brit, this is very much a problem for me. 11 hours ago, greenjoe said: While a VPN can bypass this block, that isn't viable when playing on the server due to VPNs leading to false bans. Very much this, but also I am told Imgur blocks most popular VPNs. 6 hours ago, goolie said: Copy the imgur link and paste it into discord and the embed isn't blocked. This is helpful, but afaik only lets us see one image of what might be multiple. 6 hours ago, goolie said: Use imgbb, imageshack or postimages.org if you can't access imgur! These are helpful, but it requires others to do. Alternatively, you can post images to the forum here and link them, which is what I am doing. Quote
