5000 character cap on posts
Posted by LetsShrug 12 years, 9 months ago to The Gulch: Archive
If there is going to be a cap on the amount of characters we can post can we have a counter so we know how much to cut out of what we've written?
You type: | You see: |
---|---|
*italics* | italics |
**bold** | bold |
While we're very happy to have you in the Gulch and appreciate your wanting to fully engage, some things in the Gulch (e.g. voting, links in comments) are a privilege, not a right. To get you up to speed as quickly as possible, we've provided two options for earning these privileges.
In the meantime you could compose your responses, especially one that you think might exceed the character limit, in an external text editor that shows you a running count.
I use Notepad ++ quite a bit. http://notepad-plus-plus.org/
