Default I'd like to point out ANOTHER great change to this forum.

That aggravating, annoying, '1 minute' rule no longer seems to apply any more. (At least not in the test forum).

Whenever you were posting something, you had to wait at least 60 seconds after you posted before you could post again. I think it was to prevent flooding, but this is a MUCH better forum without that darn feature. Whenever we're in the mood to talk Lightfoot, we can type away and share our feelings. :D

I had that delete inabilty a while ago too.
The remaining aggravation I have found is that there apparently is a limit on the number of characters in a single posting both in the forums and in PMs (It is not listed anywhere but is I think 500: not many if like me you tend to be verbose sorry Ron!!). The trouble is it is extremely difficult to,check before posting how mamy characters your mastrerpice comprises. sure Word would do a word count but not characters
Several times I have had to retry with a lesser amount and sometimes it will accept what is obviously far more than 500

One little curiousity that I'm experiencing is that whenever I hit Quick Reply, I get the response that I've already posted the same message 5 minutes ago. Strange happening, but I figure I can live with it.
