Accepted Submit Resources

We used to have the best feature on the forum in my opinion which was the ability to Submit Resources through a form.
You added the name, the content and choose which section from a drop-down then submit. This feature was golden.
For so so long it has said a new system is being made but nothing yet. I was hoping to bring this up to be pushed forward sooner.
I found it a lot easier to submit mass resources than having to make 10 threads I just refreshed, auto hide tags etc.
One of the most powerful features this forum ever had for quickly submitting resources straight to the forum.

Recommendations
The general layout should be right to the point when submitting this form to post.

Required: Title - what the leak is called.
Required: Leak contents - what this leak is.
Required: Leak section - drop-down menu with leak sections.
Optional: Prefix - If the forum has a prefix, choose one if any are appropriate.
Required: Leak url - The link to the download page.

The url should automatically be added into hide tags for the user.
When a user hits submit, a query should run to see if this leak has already been made. If it has then an error should be thrown back with a link to the already shared download.

This looks like a neat one, would definitely like to see this added.

What if the link is down does the leak get deleted ?
can we edit the submitted ressource ?
but yeah its a real good idea ^^

I support this. I want to be able to make a cleaner look for my leaks.

It was always a thread creation tool, so all you'd need to do is edit your thread.

I honestly don't see where this will be more useful than creating a thread? Unless you want to spam the forum with leaks I don't think this adds any additional features that MyBB code doesn't offer, would you be able to elaborate on that?

It's a feature we had in the past and it did more or less let us add resources at a faster rate.
I can't be bothered to spend close to an hour making 10 leaks when I could do it in 10 minutes.
It is for definite time saving and allows for the likes of me personally to be more active in other forums too.

Last suggestion definitely won't be a thing for numerous reasons. If you want me to explain let me know, but I'm too lazy for now.

We'll do this when we have time for it.
Thanks for your suggestion.
