Increase character limit of forum posts

Dear GGG,

While I appreciate that there's value in brevity, your current forum limit of 50,000 characters per post is insufficient when it comes to detailed character build posts in the class subforums, forcing writers to ruthlessly prioritize what to include and what to leave the players guessing about. (The more common class builds with a bare minimum of text and some videos do fine, though.)

Unless the 50,000 characters is an inherent limitation of your forum software and thus outside your control, I would appreciate you increasing that limit significantly.

Yours sincerely,
a perhaps overly loquacious build writer.

If you cannot explain your build in 50'000 words, then I guess there is something wrong. Keep the focus.

Seriously, who wants to read 50k-word-behemoth posts?

Characters, not words.

I don't know if there are any players that want to read all of a 50,000 character post, but once you start including frequently asked questions from players in its own section of the build post as well as an explanation of how game mechanics work and interact, and you carefully put individual sections in spoiler blocks so the reader easily can get an overview and choose what to read depending on his preferences rather than facing a massive block of text, it all adds up.

Characters, yes, but still... given how long some posts are here that I've seen already, it seems like the limit is perfectly okay.
