Re: too much management maybe.

Just out of curiosity, what's to keep me from putting in one paragraph to get it passed, and then putting the rest in the first post after promotion?
If you're certain of your audience's interest and stamina then I suppose exceptionally long posts are okay, but in my view exchanges of extremely lengthy messages are very difficult to both follow and participate in. The worst I've seen is when someone responds to a very lengthy post by quoting and responding to each paragraph.
A planned feature for a future release will allow moderators to place limits on post length. These limits will be able to be assigned by forum, thread and member.
