I need to add "Hearing Joe's message" to the "Things That Made Me Happy Today" thread.   So awesome and we're right there with you. 

One night I dreamed a dream.
As I was walking along the beach with the maniacs from DTF.
Across the dark sky flashed scenes from my life.
For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand,
One belonging to me and one to the clowns from DTF.

After the scene of 2023 flashed before me,
I looked back at the footprints in the sand.
I noticed that at many times along the path of my life,
especially at the very lowest and saddest times,
there was only one set of footprints.

This really troubled me, so I asked the idiots at DTF about it.
"Hey, you lunatics, you said once I decided to join you,
You'd walk with me all the way.
But I noticed that during the saddest and most troublesome times of my life,
there was only one set of footprints.
I don't understand why, when I needed you the most, you would leave me."

They mumbled something like "My precious child, there was a debate about whether Portnoy's vocals are good or notwe love you and will never leave you
Never, ever, during your trials and testings.
When you saw only one set of footprints,
It was then that we carried you."

The organiser of the retreat mentioned there were rumors of some updates in regards to the MP/DT situation so it was his duty as a DT fan to leave the retreat early, get back to his computer and wait for updates as the internet connection at the retreat was too slow and wouldn't update the news fast enough.

I don't, but I've had to split some roulette results posts. If you're over, it will tell you without losing your work. But I think the character limit is pretty damn high.
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

It's listed somewhere.  For some reason I think it's 5000??  Though, that number seems low.  I'm sure a mod knows.

A quick forum search of "character limit" suggests a few people have found out that it's 20k.

ok thanks. I'm not sure if spaces or lines factor in, but they may.

I ask this per in the 2024 DTF Release Calendar thread, if we have like 500+ albums listed, the character limit may be reached. I wouldn't normally think that could happen, but, we have some folks submitting a ton of albums, at some point, the number could lead to that limit per, we are also talking about 11+ months of adding/editing the same post.

It should not surprise anyone that I have hit that limit - it is 20k - in a P/R post.  :).   I do think everything counts, because part of the "problem" was the nested quotes.

My damn hiatal hernia has been bothering me. Rock hard and throbbing.  2 days of this.  I set up an appointment with the surgeon who preformed my bariatric surgery who will preform the hernia surgery to look at it.  It sore to the touch.  That's hasn't happened for 9 months since I was diagnosed with having them.

It's been ok until the last 2 days, the doctor's plan was to wait until after February when the weight loss completed.  Then they would preform the surgery and pull my skin up and not charge me for that while doing the surgery.
