Contri Comments Character Challenged   Reply to topic

Sometimes “Awesome”, “Nice ass”, or even “Holy Shit!” can adequately describe a contribution. Most of the time though, my thoughts go beyond a paltry 2 lines. On top of this there is the tease. You show a comment space rich with potential but end it as abruptly as Mary Lou M. did my first hand job. 4 strokes and an “I gotta go, now”. The only satisfaction achieved was telling her older brother that I got a longer session than he did. But that is another story.
Please increase the allowable size for contri comments.

Hi there,

This is restricted to 150 characters. Which we think is adequate to get your feelings over!

If you want to let them know in more than 150 characters, simply send them a message.

Thanks.

I think that 150 is a little stingy but it would be nice to have a way to vote on it.

And some people resent getting a private message so I rarely do it.

I've got a support ticket on this but if you go over the 150 (in Firefox at least) your entire comment gets dumped without warning. I copy my comments to the clipboard before I submit then sometimes I have to paste into a word processor and whittle them down while watching the character count.
