If you had experience of running a phpBB forum then you would understand why approving every registration instantly is not a good idea.

IMGUR are reducing the size and quality of your images which is normal as websites would run painfully slow if all online images were MB in size! https://help.imgur.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000083326 The forum has a size limit for the same reason: https://gardenrails.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=1...
