Im typing my body in a new thread, like only a paragraph and i have like 8000 words left but it says you have exceeded your 10,000 character limit. Why is it doing this?

Words =/= Characters.

Characters; letters, spaces, or symbols.
Words; cheese, hot pockets.

In the word "-blam!-", there's seven characters.
1) -
2) b
3) l
4) a
5) m
6) !
7) -

I can't explain things. I hoped that helped a little. Perhaps someone can explain better.

I think he meant words ≠ characters. For example, this post uses over a hundred and fifty characters but only 28 words.

Spaces, punctuation, etc are also counted as characters.

Yea, that's what I meant. I'll go edit it.
