I try to avoid verbosity, but do exceed the maximum length of photo comments and forum posts on occasion. (Sometime I just have a lot to say!) I don't know exactly what the limit is, but I'd like to see it increased by at least 25% (or more if feasible). |

I thought there was only a limit as to how much is displayed in the Preview Post window. |

That's possible. I always Preview my posts, and adjust them when they get truncated in that window. I guess I've never tried actually posting one that was longer than the Preview Post window could handle. Thanks. |

The clue for me was when the break came in the middle of some code, like to a link. Because the closing tag was truncated the opening tag would appear in clear text, like this:
... blah blah blah [img]//pBas..... |

I think you get timed-out when it takes to loog to write the post. If I write over two paragraphs, I always (when I remember) copy the whole post to the clipboard so I can do it over if I get disconnected. |

I just wrote about 20 page-ups of a post and it posted fine. So....if there's a technical limit, it's LONG.

I've never been times out until I pased "test" about 1000000 times, heheh. It only took about 15 seconds to write, but it was sending for about 5 minutes, then came up with "this page cannot be displayed.
