The forum wont let me post a one sentence reply.
« on: July 16, 2011, 01:33:51 AM »


Usually the forum lets us post a lot longer replies, this must be a bug. I tried re-loging and switching computers, keep getting the same 80 character limit. However I was able to post this thread without a problem, and it is obviously more than 80 characters long.

Thread Title exceeds 80-characters.  If possible they should maybe consider changing that warning to say "Thread Title exceeds 80 characters".

Thanks, I switched the title to "." and it worked. I guess the "Re: " made it 80 characters.

Yeah, I wish people would put the body of their post in the body, not the title; titles are supposed to be short and meaningful to what the post is about.  :D

I see people report this "bug" about once a month here.  I'm surprised you haven't seen it before...
