    Forum post character limit increased

    Greetings!

    You’ve all been asking and we are happy to share, the character limit for forum posts has been increased to 3000 characters.

    It's as if they are still unaware it can be bypassed by editing. But hey, less editing at least, most posts wont hit 3000.

    The default setting on vB is 60,000 tho, which cannot be bypassed.

    A: [...]these older MMOs also had a system where your house would break down if you didn’t log in after a while in order to have you continue your subscription, but this is a thing of the past and we won't have any system like that.

    Well thank you, better than nothing at least. Still wished we would not have a limit at all.

    Q: Will there be any maintenance fees or other costs for housing, besides the cost of the land and house?
    A: In older MMOs, such as Ultima Online, there was a house maintenance fee you had to pay weekly, but in FFXIV: ARR we decided against this system. Similarly, these older MMOs also had a system where your house would break down if you didn’t log in after a while in order to have you continue your subscription, but this is a thing of the past and we won't have any system like that.

    Well, it's not a ton of extra characters, but I'll certainly take the progress nonetheless.

    Would have preferred a entire forum board engine replacement..but this will suffice.

    Has this actually been changed, or is it just for general discussion? After reading this post I've hit the 1k character limit twice in two different threads both times being under 2k characters. Both instances were in English Forums > Gameplay > Markets and Retainers if it makes any difference. If this change is coming in the future, can you give a date estimate?

    Because we'd have no patience with a single post that takes 10-15 minutes to read?

    Because typing 5-10 thousand words 'just to make a point' might be seen as overkill?

    Because we really don't want to read an in-depth 'rant' that is that long?
