Do you know the PM letter limit?
Why on earth would someone want to post a personal message that long?

Experience is a wonderful thing. It helps you recognise a mistake when repeated.

Re: Do you know the PM letter limit?
On another forum, each previous PM remains linked in brackets as quotes, from both sides, they can get very long unless one party starts to edit the reply.
I have received the equivelant of War & Peace in a PM over on yet another forum, it actually came through as two PM's
I had to take a coffee break half way through and do a few revisions to refresh the memory about what the actual question was 
it then came attached with a 36 page PDF file of a wiring diagram 
It took me a few weeks to finally explain the fix to the problem in a way the writer could understand, I should have attached a consultancy fee Maybe I'll get to go for a cruise on it when it's finished

Maximum characters per post/message:
The number of characters allowed within a post/private message. Set to 0 for unlimited characters.
60000
Long enough to get the message across I reckon!!!
