What you lost was the storage space allotted to you by the website while being a paying member, not the ability to post pics.

When I was a paying member at the bottom there was a tab to upload now it's gone. That just means that the site won’t host your pictures. You can still post pictures hosted elsewhere. |

Non paying members can post pictures but the pictures have to be somewhere else on the net and you link to them, this site won’t host the images for you for free. |

They definitely need that $24 to pay Amazon, otherwise Brownell’s would go broke. |

Why do you expect someone else's labor and resources to pay for your entertainment? |

If you're going to post dick pics, you're gonna pay to do it.

Quoted: I think the point is that they make money off non-paying members as well who have to wade through ads that paying members don't have. That's how I read it anyway.

View Quote Well that's mildly disturbing. |

The built in picture uploader sucks and is of little use besides quick shitposting on mobile or making an EE post on the fly. It’s low res and there is a 5 image limit per post.
Third party/uploading websites are superior |

Quoted: Can anyone give me a good reason View Quote Because nobody, and I mean NOBODY, wants to put up with the absolute hell that is allowing any free, registered user to upload pictures. 99% of the people are fine, the other 1% make it absolute hell. When you have to pony up a few bucks, suddenly people get a lot more responsible, and that 1% of people drops to like 0.1%. Plus storage, bandwidth, and backups. |
