Forum posting restrictions

Yes that has been discussed countless times no doubt, but yet the issue remains.

Why oh why is there a 1000 character limit, especially when they give us such an easy, but annoying work around? Isn't there also a daily posting limit or something?

I'm usually a pretty big user of forums in MMOs but here I barely get up to even 5 posts a day, they just make things so tedious and annoying.

Also not being able to comment on the forums unless you have an active account. Why? I can sort of understand it but sometimes I need to quit for a bit, take a break after getting burned out on it, and I like to head to the forums once a week or so to see what's new. I still like to participate in the forums even when I'm not playing. But it seems they would rather force me to find a non-official forum and sign up to that one - which with all these posting restrictions actually doesn't seem like that bad of an idea. It'll probably be more active than these ones anyways.

*edit because of the damn character limit.

How about think very well before you start typing and try resume it before write it?, i think this limitations are intended to somehow reduce the ammount of trolls on forums or force people to write only the most important stuff, no one likes to read a text of over 1000 characters from wich maybe about 200 were enough to state your point.
