Forum post character limit increased

Yaaaay, thank you Rinrin!

Ah. That’s pretty neat!

More than happy with this, as most of my posts tend to end at the 1,100-1,500 limit.

Welcome to 2018?

I just hit the 1,000 character limit in a thread in the General Discussion sub-forum with a post of 1,088 characters. Has this actually been increased?

I think it only applies to new threads, as I still hit it.

Sadly this seems to be limited to general forum only? Made a post with maybe 1.5k characters and needed to edit it..can we not have this in every part of the forum?

Edit: Or like Kisai said, maybe only for new threads? But why?

To be honest they should get rid of the limit all together and the daily amount of posts.

I went into a general forum thread that was created today and it still had the 1000 limit..

I dont see how limiting to 3k character avoid long post because... it is a limit when you post, not when you edit...

Now, why most of all other forum dont get this kind of limit?
Why it was not this limit even 15 years ago? ...

FFXIV forum is one of the less ergonomic i know... greatly due to this 1k/3k limits limit that give nothing because we can just edit to go over... (easier to cut half of your text, post, edit, paste, post... )
