Bigger Chat Max Message Size?

Currently, the chat room has a max message size of 125 characters. Could you bump this up a little? Several of the people in chat Friday agreed with this, as we're frequently breaking up messages because of the limit, and some links won't work because they're longer than 125 chars.

As for an exact amount, the higher the better, imho.

Re: Bigger Chat Max Message Size?

Yep, it does get annoying to have to break messages up with "..." all the time. I would guess that it's just a simple setting. In this type of chat environment I would highly doubt it would be abused. Of course if it lags down the server or becomes a problem, we can always shorten it again.

Re: Bigger Chat Max Message Size?

Hm, would it be possible to make the text wrap? Currently, it just keeps going, so it's unreadable anyways. Hehe, thanks for getting on this.

Hi atto,

Unfortunately this is not possible at the moment. I have sent in an inquiry but this will require editing whats been hard coded which is somewhat of a problem. If I hear back anything I will keep this thread posted.
