I've seen other topics saying that we need a way to stop warez and illegal content, well, I am suggesting an area in the ACP where there will be a list of all types of media that gets uploaded/linked to your forum. That way admins can get to the source faster and avoid OnlineGuardian raiding your forum. What do you think?

EDIT:
While you can see them in your admin panel, you will be able to remove them, at ease.

all types of media that gets uploaded/linked ?
How do you differentiate between warez and illegal content from a URL?

I think a better idea is have it show up as where you can see the post of where the content is hosted so you can check it and make sure its not illegal.

It doesn't matter. Admins should know whats being uploaded to their site.

Regardless, the first course of action is through the admin. If its allowed, then its allowed. If its not allowed, same concept.

Nothing gets uploaded to Forumotion.

Maybe that came out wrong.

Admins should know what "media" content is being placed on their forums, ie. links, images/links, movies/links etc. Something that will log this will be beneficial, so they don't have to check every single post.

So it just gives the links, so basically it cannot differentiate between illegal things & legal things.

Thats not the real point, though is it. An admin needs to judge if they want that content on their forum or not. This just makes things easier to search and is quite time saving. Also, hotlinking is an issue, so with this, an admin can quickly remove the content, or use their own host.

Yes thats there, so its not a automatic system rather a manual system of removing illegal warez links. I got ya.

Removing is manual, but collecting all the links is automatic.

Voted yes.
