5000 Character Limit on PMs

[U are a noob]

Is there any way that the 5000 character limit on PMs be increased? I was trying to PM some thing and it said it was to long.

It's probably possible... doubt it's going to happen, though. I ran into that problem once. I think I just sent multiple PMs.

Ever heard of "tldr" ?


Passing essays back and forth or something?

Well the problem is that its formated in HTML or what ever that [noparse][/noparse] is called.

How would making it Italic be a problem?

He means that the whole entire thing is coded using BBCodes.

No, it isn't HTML, HTML consists of less and greater than symbols, while BBCodes have "[" and "]" characters to wrap the stuff.

Just send multiple PMs, that's what Ghan did.

Well of course thats the easy solution but it think its kinda silly to have a limit. I mean what can you do thats bad with more than 5000.

Use up all available space on the server?

These limits exist for a reason.

Same goes for the infamous 'wait-between-search', etc.

Limits are good.
Especially this one.
There's no control.

I see your point and your problem, but it's not going to change.

Whoever's going to get your text will have no problem ignoring the couple BB tags, or imagining what they would look like.
Otherwise I'd rethink sending it to him...

Hm... a "pastebin" would be of use here as it would have the same "limits" as normal posts.
