No. Searches are the single biggest drain on the board's performance. (This applies to most message boards in fact, which is why searches are usually restricted).

No !

I'm glad to see the exclamation point. I almost never have a problem with the ten-character limit, and it's very telling that it's Straha that's making this request. :rolleyes: And besides that, the last thing we need around here is a homosexual innuendo spamfest without limits.

Traitor!

Why don't you just do what I do? Put in a few ............. then highlight them and choose the 'white' color option. They're invisible.

You have to learn how to ask for things in a manner that might actually get them for you.

While the 10 character limit can be most vexing at times, Ah do declayuh it serves a good purpose. Can you imagine how many posts a certain 13-year old would have without it? :D

On the second day, the Great Ian created the 10 charater limit. And Ian looked down upon his creation and pronounced it good


One day as Ian was surveying his domain, the one named Straha dared to dispute the Great Ian over the 10 charater limit and Ian was wroth with righteous anger...

...and he cursed the imp Straha to wander the Earth for eternity, always restlessly searching for the fabled Golden Joint of Atlantis...

Nice Diamond.

And the one called Straha resented Ian's command that the sacred marijuana was to be enjoyed in moderation and so Straha gathered his followers and they smoked and smoked and smoked some more, laughing at Ian and many other meaningless things, and the Great Ian bided His time...

And He decided to appear as burning bush to them to deliver them His message. Upon reveling Himself to them Straha said: "Who folks, check this shit out. Burning marijuana plant." And he and his followers smoked the burning bush.

And thus the first Hemp Communion was created; the Great Ian said unto them: "Lo, this is my body, smoke it up!" And they smoked of his body, and said: "It is good."

People, at least stop calling it a ten-character limit... that's not what it is! It's a ten character MINIMUM!

Damn, that drives me crazy. ;)

a limit can be a minimum Tetsu e.g. a limit of 10 chars or more.
