Splain "80 characters"

[bj229r]

I'm trying to type a coherent response to a post, and I keep getting this #%%@#%%# message that said response exceeds said 80 character limit---that's about 1/3 of one (DAMNIT! there it is again )

THAT warrants the

The message exceeds the maximum allowed length (80 characters).

thingie...some sort buggy affair, seems slaved to threads

If the original thread was allowed to be started, how does that figure in?

When you reply, it adds an "Re:" - which might just bring it over 80 chars.

The original subject on that Obama thread has 77 characters.

If you look at his subject line, you may reckon the awsesome "Trunctation Trick" (tm)

They should shorten the title length to 40 characters.  What type of moron creates an 70+ character length title for a thread?

Hit enter 3 times quickly. If that doesn't do it hit ctrl alt del or alt F4.
