Lavo 785 November 13, 2013 Share November 13, 2013 We hate it, you hate it, everyone hates it. So today I'm announcing that the minimum character limit is practically dead. All forums with the exception of three now have a minimum of 20 characters, which should be pretty damn hard to not reach. The three forums that are not exempt from this change and remain how they were are Roleplay (200), Advanced Roleplay (800), and Debate Pit (100). Just remember if your post is off-topic, extremely low quality or needlessly shor we're still going to penalize it under off-topic this new change isn't a green signal to spam the forums. Also something to note is that the Character Minimum Violation still exists and will be handed out when needed if you somehow manage to not hit it or hit the limit in a forum where it is more of a problem. Now, if you don't mind. I'm going to go back and hide in my cave. 83 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Old Head 4,816 November 13, 2013 Share November 13, 2013 I'm still going to write all my posts so that they're above 100 characters, just for tradition. Means I can continue doing those long-winded posts that I love to write. Just need to get into it; loads more ideas for my posts grow from when I hit 100 characters. Oh, and yeah - behave yourself with this limit folks 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Untitled Goose Q 5,137 November 13, 2013 Share November 13, 2013 Well, I was fine with the character limit how it was before. However, I can see that this change makes many very happy. So, I suppose...... yay! 1 On 4/22/2016 at 6:16 PM, The Nightly Spectre said: One does not ask why The Questioner is awesome.

Wingnut 6,994 November 13, 2013 Share November 13, 2013 (edited) I personally would've been happy with 50 for most sections and at least 100 for Life Advice. But let's see how this works out first. I'm still going to write all my posts so that they're above 100 characters, just for tradition. Means I can continue doing those long-winded posts that I love to write. Just need to get into it; loads more ideas for my posts grow from when I hit 100 characters. Oh, and yeah - behave yourself with this limit folks I am a very proliferative wall of text writer.

Zygen 6,066 November 13, 2013 Share November 13, 2013 I feel as though i should utilize the fact that I could post a 20 character post here and be fine now, but well..... That probably won't happen xD. Comeon... you all know i'm was to long winded(And boring) to actually post a 20 charactor post.... Well except if i'm really feeling it.... which is quite rare... Or forum games. Of course i know others aren't as long winded and boring as me... SOoo yeah i'm still ok with the change, its not like its going to make it so I can't post long posts, i just don't have to. But i still will ;p. 1 Thanks to Gone Airbourne for the awesome sig!

Thrashy 2,800 November 13, 2013 Share November 13, 2013 I'm kind of ambivalent about this, myself. Yay that I don't have to go out of my way to pad out statements that only take a brief sentence, but it still was a good tool for discouraging folks who only signed up to spam the shit outta the place. I'd have opted for a min that diminishes as you ascend rank (i.e., as you prove yourself capable of making meaningful posts), but I'm not a coder, so I don't know how difficult such a system may or may not be to implement, so... 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lomk 20,663 November 13, 2013 Share November 13, 2013 I noticed that, like, five minutes ago when I was writing in a different part of the forum! I agree that it'll be pretty damn hard not to reach TWENTY characters! I get the feeling I'll still write 100 character replies because I got SO used to them bahaha I refuse to let go until you're impressed. I refuse to let go until I'm depressed.
