  2. Our gif only content threads have a rule where all thumbs must be posted as a static thumbnail that does not play. Currently imagebam made a change where they no longer produce static thumbs. Therefore, please do not use imagebam, or any host, that provides live playing gifs in those specific threads. If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    Just a curiosity this. Do the threads have a limit to the amount of posts in them? Like if random chat reached a million posts would it lock?

    The old ezboards locked at 500, i remember that.

    One more question...Is there a chance we change the 30.000 characters limit in posts?I know its not a problem that we face frequent but its a problem when we make megaposts...and have to do 2 posts or more.

    If i am going to make a really big post i use wordcount in MS Word to sort it out before i post. Then i try to post before anyone jumps in.

    Which is HARD!

    That's what I used to do when I was doing mega milestone threads. Paste it all from word and just post consecutively, that said mods don't have to worry about time periods in-between posts which makes it easier :D

    no problem.

    i´m one of those "lazy" model-forum-posters - these lame 20-pics-posts never endangered me to cross the 30K-character-limit - so i don´t see that an increase would be necessary.

    ;)

    anyways - ask one of the mods to discuss this with Cayne.
    technically the sky is the limit (afaik the vbulletin-max.-limit is 16MB text per post... figuratively unlimited, somehow, isn´t it? ;))
