This has probably been discussed here (at least once or twice a year, ha) but it is new to me.

I was wondering who set the limits on the amount of characters allowed for each text entry box. I can understand limits for title boxes, and short description boxes but I wondered if the News, forum and Article section boxes could be increased. The News section seems to be the most troublesome.

I understand there has to be limits because of disk storage space limitations ($$$).

Would Bungie consider increasing the size of those text boxes a little?

Sorry if this has been discussed before.

Thanks, dave

Well, that should be enough for your posts, and if it isn't, use another post to continue. Without a limit though, spammers would just find more annoying things to do with them.

Achronos has already stated that it's a database issue.

As in, the database has a limit on the amount of data per row.
