I'm seeing people for there responses just pretty much posting nothing but this.

"123456790"

to bypass the 10char limit, they post nothing to contribute to a thread and it's pretty much spam.

I think it would be great if there was a rule against posting just a few words that have nothing to contribute to the conversation at all instead of people spamming.

I disagree. Sometimes a brief reply is far more effective and constructive than a wall of text.

I also disagree.
They should remove the character limit, as it's just an annoyance. And as you said, people will type 1234567890 to bypass it anyway.

You two forget that this is a forum not a chat messenger program.

I was wondering why people did that number thing, if I had a small replay I just padded my post with words.

I don't see what harm it does. If someone agrees or disagrees with you and wants to type a post of 'no' or 'yes' then why not? It's hard to say something really awful in less than 10 char (although I'm sure people will prove me wrong).

I see alot of posts removed by SE for off-topic and such, they can remove the troll posts, too. I do NOT envy them the job of having to read all of them to decide which are trolls and the like. Maybe a policy of 5 off-topic posts in a 2 month period leads to a 3 month suspension of posting privledges, 6 months for 2nd offense and permaban of your SE account (yes, game too) for 3rd?

Amen Rambus,you hit on main reason i quit..not only is SE letting game die,and screwing ppls that worked hard for many yrs to get ra/ex weapons...(ie bow) they make it easy for noobs to lvl so fast and get equal gear....made whole reason for working those yrs irrelivent.Crafting,questing,farming,camping,to make your own gil,pay for your own gear (w/out buying gils/charc's),took away all aspects of accomplishment the game supposedlly was made for.I myself helped thousands over all the yrs i played....now trying to get help worthless,and very few of the good ppls left in game,sad to see a good thing go .
