I noticed that you are now no longer able to post long words in the Regional Message Board. I like the concept and now I wonder how many characters the max is? I thought 37 was a good number a while ago, but I wonder what the actual limit is.
However, I ran into a problem with pasting links to The Forum. Sometimes The Forum is bogged down, yet my region is at "war". Since I keep getting "Page cannot be displayed" errors all the time in The Forum, I have found it best to give links to the topics, so they do not have to browse The Forum, and just go straight to the topic.
How are we supposed to do this now? Take for example, this thread, which currently says: http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=87887&start=0
In the current set-up, I am be unable to post that (which is an important link to give to new players). Where should I put the spaces?
http://www.nationstates.net/forum/ viewtopic.php?t=87887&start=0
(Remove space between "forum/" and "viewtopic")
Probably works, however simply copying and pasting no longer works and will inconvenience some, and those who need the link may not remember to remove the space.
Despite this problem, I do like the idea of a limit on somebody not using spaces. Thank You.
Edit: It was way past my bedtime, stupid spilling errors...
