@CT075 I can’t quite put my finger on it, but something tells me this user would like to have image permissions.
It’s fine to have your policy, but afaik there’s nothing telling the user that they must request permission or how to actually do that. As they are clearly not a spam bot and it’s quite apparent that they would genuinely appreciate being given image permissions, I used the forum tool you keep encouraging users to use to bring something to the attention of staff. Do you really need them to say the words “may I please have image permissions?” to you directly?
I get where you’re coming from, but it’s not like I’m going around flagging every introduction thread made by users with accounts < 1 week old. In an ideal world I, too, would prefer new users to flag the post themselves to ask you, but I don’t expect new users to know to do that. As far as I’m concerned, asking how and commenting that they can’t has very little difference to asking if they may.
It’s like this teacher -
Student: “Can I go to the washroom?”
Teacher: “I don’t know, can you?” long pause “I think you mean ‘may I go to the washroom’.”
