It seems that a couple of members are using this forum as some kind of file sharing website. They post a message with an attachment (usually in the test forum) and some time later they remove the attachment. It is also funny to see that a lot of those messages come from members using the same IP address.

Did anyone notice the same? Any ideas how to deal with it?

Yes, noticed that before. (also the IP number being the same, but there are more users using that IP)
I also started a new thread suggesting a max filesize for uploads, but I removed it. Seemed too big a hassle for just one or two offenders.
What I don't understand is why they keep bothering. Their attachments very often get removed by mods, and they are being told to go to some free mailing site or whatever, yet they keep trying..
