The point he's trying to make, which you're either missing or ignoring,
is that things such as "proper use of JPEG" or "acceptable filesize" are
completely subjective (especially the former). Without absolute limits
set by the server owner or by general consensus of the community, you
have no grounds to say that a file is correctly or incorrectly encoded,
except in extreme cases where everyone would agree that the limits had
been exceeded (and since I downloaded the original image without
problems with a fairly commonplace 256kbit connection, this is not the
case), and obviously you two don't agree on a reasonable limit, or this
discussion would not be taking place.
As bandwidth and storage space increases, acceptable limits for files
will necessarily increase as well, at least until we reach a point of
diminishing returns, so historic limits may not apply either.
If there are any official rules for this server that would be
applicable, you would do well to point Eric toward them, and I'd be
curious to see them as well. Otherwise, I would likewise be curious what
the majority of community presently regards as acceptable.
