    Hey, so I tried recording evidence for someone who was Mic-spamming.
    I wanted to report them, so I recorded a demo of them.
    I tried uploading a DEM file to the hosting website so I could put that in the report as evidence.
    Those are not accepted. So, whoever handles that website, could they or whoever add DEM files as an uploadable file for the file hosting website?
    If there is any other way to present video evidence, please tell me.

    Thanks.

    You have to compress the dem file first with e.g. WinRar and then upload the zip file.

    As .ax said, you have to compress those kind of files into a ZIP archive.
    The problem with .dem files is that there is no distinct mime type to detect that the user actually uploaded demo files and not executables.

    Only going to close this, as there is no dedicated section for issues with the file hosting site.
