Thread titles get cut off.
« on: February 23, 2006, 06:09:37 pm »
It seems that the max number of character you can type into the subject line is greater than the max number of characters which are permitted to show up.  The result is that thread titles sometimes get cut off, and also there\'s no way of going back and fixing it since it isn\'t an option in the edit function.

Hi

Yes, seems to be a bit faulty design on the forum side there. The maximum title I could get was 70 characters long. I believe the moderators are able to change the thread titles, if absolutely neccessary, but would be best for everyone to try and use relatively short titles in the first place.

Agreed with Cherppow - there\'s no reason to have a thread title consisting of even over 50 characters.
