Why are pm's text limited?

[BikeSwimLaugh]

I've seen this forum lay-out over and over again. The only reason we are being limited in text-amount is because it'll prompt us to post on the open forum and make things seem more active then they actually are.

But just for the heck of it...why are we limited to just 1,000 characters?? I hate it...

You answered your Q then asked it.. lol

You want 1001 just for you

Oh sure Sara....offer a solution.

But seriously, when you get a PM it's nice to be able to answer w/o the bs of having to decide to exchange email addresses. Plus, with email addresses you can find IP addresses, and then people might discover some of us are currently residing at mental institutions.

This is America & the Internet; it's my right to Beyotch about dumb policy. I say, lift the 1k limit.

You can always just send it in parts.

well considering you already blew your cover by making that argument..

I kinda agree though.. sometimes I have had to send two PMs to say what I want to say. I don't want to start doing the email thing, I hardly ever check my email.

The 1,000 character limit really spoils the mood when I'm reading all the erotic literature Todd sends me

 

[Karky]

You guys whine too much

only because you are fully clothed... we are bored

 

[Karky]

It's probably a database constraint placed. My guess, without looking at the code, would be that the site is using databases to store and send the messages. So basically, whoever made the table in the database probably placed a 1000 char limitation on the column. However, I think if the programmer actually stores the text message inside the database is making a huge mistake. My approach would be to make a column that links to a file name, then access the file to display the text, instead of storing the text directly on the database. I'd imagine the same constraints are placed inside the actual forum text.

Is it because you're a big tit? Or maybe it's because of your big goofy teeth?

True, it might a database constraint, but it's very easy to modify that kind of constraint in the Database.
Since this forum runs in PHP, I guess they're using MySQL DBMS server, which allows these kind of constraints to be changed very easily, without causing any issues with the overall software.
So I guess the reason why there is a limit is not due to technical nature. They have their reason why not to use more than a 1000 chars.
However it's no biggie to write the message in parts.

 

[Big_Idiot]

because your fat?

Wrong.

Is it because you're a big tit? Or maybe it's because of your big goofy teeth?

Wrong again.

Its just because my pen!s length doubles Little C's and tripples Littler K's.
Its just your Genetics boys, you cant help it

Havnt you noticed a bit more air space whilst having sex with your gf's lately?

hehehehehehehhehehehehehehee

 

[Karky]

dude, c'mon, give a proper retort you gotta play with the words, not just say "wrong, my dick is bigger"

I mean, to my whole fat comment, even retorting with "yeah, my dick is" would have been better than that weak display you provided Step up your game!

Go easy on him, he's a northener, 'words' aren't his strong point. Give him a flat cap and whippet though and he's in a class of his own
