| all it does is force us to hit spacebar more. my spacebar is already worn out, stop abusing my spacebar please |
 |
| why don't press space, then copy the blank space and paste it a couple of times, then copy the bigger blank space and paste it? |
 |
| Seriously guys 30 is way toooooooooo much |
 |
| No it's a good rule to eliminate the potential for multiple spams. |
 |
| It doesn't fix spam though |
|
| It discourages it. Which is the purpose behind it in any forum really. |
|
| discouraging it doesn't require a 30 character limitation as spam usually contains less than that. |
|
| It also discourages posting |

It's to discourage one word spams and such (i.e ''lol'' ''yes'' ''no'') Sherlockeb said: It also discourages posting It doesn't? they are not a lot of posts that contain less than 30-15 characters and aren't just spam |

| Even our forum posts have fillers now MAL vs Naruto vs Bleach |

It's to discourage one word spams and such (i.e ''lol'' ''yes'' ''no'') I'm saying a lower limitation does the job already. No need for it to be 30 characters (and it still doesn't really discourage spamming, as shown above) edit: typos |

| I think there should be a single dedicated thread simply titled "revert the latest change" so that people could just bump it every time something changes and go on with their day. Good idea imo, would unclutter the forum quite a bit. |

No need for it to be 30 characters (and it still doesn't really discourage spamming, as shown above) edit: typos Oh I see. I didn't encounter a 30 character limit, it's only been 15 so far for me. Of course it can be bypassed. But do you really think someone that just wants to spam one words in multiple threads in order to increase his post count would bother to do this? that's what discourages means, it doesn't prevent. That's idea behind if I'm not mistaken. |
|
| I'll always paste "fcuk 30 character req." in my posts, because it's plain stupidity on MAL. |
 |
| Erm.. I can remember someone suggesting a character limit (but it was for something else) .___. I didn't think it would actually be implemented. There are already a shit load of ways around this so I'm not even sure this is effective ( I wonder why it was implemented and the reasons that mods or users think it would work) xD But I guess its just another Nuisance that we can potentially run into if we are not in par to posting more than a sentence. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |

| different boards have different minimum character limit Casual Discussion = 30 minimum character limit Current Events = 15 minimum character limit Forum Games = 1 minimum character limit thats all i know so far |

Jokes aside, a reduction would be great. |

| I'm just confused why can't the mods just actually enforce the spam rules more? I've broken the rules before(I never received a warning for any of it), not knowing the rules. I think most people would be like me, so wouldn't giving people fair warning and do their job of enforcing the rules be more effective then just trying to make a work-around to cover up for their own laziness? don't get me wrong, but if the moderator team is spread out maybe more should be added to the team, because the rules already are either ignored or viewed jokingly |
| 30 characters seems a little excessive; already I've found myself having to fluff out my posts with needless extra characters. Some topics just do not require longer responses. |
 It's an entirely different kind of flying, altogether! It's an entirely different kind of flying. |

Was the thread deleted or was I silenced by MAL's KGB? there's one in support. I noticed shortly after I made this thread, since i only looked in suggestions. rip |
