5 letter rule

I agree with your sentiments, but at the same time I want to be able to say what I want. Maybe your required characters can be reduced based on how much rep you have or something... haha.

I agree, with the added note that I don't think being restrictive on how we can post will help activity much.

(A perfect example. I have, with a single word, endorsed the idea that KA suggested, showing my support for it without being garrulous)

The post way back there was to prove my point. Anyone could just add random crap onto the end of a post and it would fit the requierment. I also agree with talentedhamster. Insted of someone saying
"Ya




Fuck WW"
They would say.
"Yes



Fucking fucker WW"

That's why the mods would manually enforce it, as Lenny said.

But it seems entirely pointless.

Do you not agree that at least some posts are a valid response that are under x number of characters?

Yes, but not enough to warrant dealing with the trouble of retards complaining about unequal enforcement.

Ditch the 5 letter rule and enforce signifigant post rules completely in all non spam forums.

I think if a single post fits then that rule should not be automatically enforced. Why automate the moderator's job when they can do it so much more efficiently?
