Thanks Brynn,

No, just read over it again and see if we can harmonise them; making
sure there's no glaring omissions.

No NSFW section, we don't have any age checking or viewer limiters.
Formats are up to the forum, I'm guessing no limits.

All that's needed is for a reasonable quota to exist, be set to a group
and then add the users to that group so they get to have that quota.

For example moderators are easy. 200MB for them. Prolific answerers are
a bit harder because they're not a group, but doable. Say 100MB? they
can always delete their large files later if them want to.

Say 20MB for regular users for now?
