Twenty characters is what, five words?

You can't made a thread with five words?

no god dammit! we're not a long worded group here (save for merc) with our LOL's and OMG's we don't have time for thread titles. an ideal title to me is just a smilie that makes a face that people will go "oh shit what happened" and click it. like :buttrock: is a title to me. i can't be assed to write out a real title, and we shouldn't be made to do it. fuck the system, fuck 20 characters, fuck magna!

you have small hands, so a job any normal person could do in two seconds you'd take three years to do just because you'd have to find a tool that you could grip without it falling from your half assed clutches. i'd catch you in the act.

Dammit, it's annoying. :mad: :envy: :mad: :envy:

OK, I can remove the 20 char limit, after which I will also be forced to reduce PM boxes, and it will go under 100. If you wish me to do this, fine, and then I'll also sticky this thread for the complaints. :)

Seriously though, thats the choice. I'll give this thread a look in a little while and see what the opinions are......

Because mods don't give gifts.

If they give something, they take something.

So what'll it be, Ki? :mr_t:

The best answer you'll get is that VB has some 'issues' with the size of the backend, and its uniqueness. Beyond that, I'm not sharing what the actual issue is anywhere in public, there is already enough detail to paint a good picture.......

Remove the limit and cut the PM box space.

A bigger PM box is 1,000,000x more important than that little 20 character nuisance. Maybe not to you, but to all the people who do trades it is.

Everyone should just do what Kim did, draw ascii dicks for filler. Maybe after seeing hundreds of ascii dicks around they will fix it?

I believe it goes like:
