I tried to post something on a thread and when I clicked save, got the message saying “Your comment is too long. Comments are limited to a maximum of 700 characters”.

Anybody else faced this today. Is it part of New QL?

Hey guys,

Yes, this has been implemented today only - it is a temporary fix to help curb the long spam that is coming through in the comments section. Please bare with us - once we have control on the spam, we will remove this limit again.

For now, this should be of more benefit for most of you.

Can't remember if I ever did copy / paste...:) Generally it is all hard work. Typed out all that by my own lovely fingers...:) Breaking it wouldn't make sense as some other comment may get posted in between.
