View Full Version : Are people honestly having trouble hitting the minimum number of characters?

I keep seeing posts ending with filler explaining that it's filler because they couldn't think of something that's five characters long. FIVE.

The whole point of having a minimum number of characters is so you don't makes posts that are useless like "QFT", "LOL" or worse of all, a post consisting of just a quote.

Try to think of something original before posting.

Thanks.

Usually, a post with a quote is all that's needed. So we improvise.

Hardly. It's already been posted, hence, it's already been posted.

Should have left it at 10 imo.

I don't think it would make much of a difference, people were still doing the same thing :(

Maybe QFT and LOL might not be useful, but NTY and others are needed...

You can also try something new. Like actually typing the words.

Which is what I'm doing right now and subconsciously do sometimes. But it's still annoying typing nty out of habit and the window pops out.

Wait, you mean like "laugh out loud" and "what the ----"?

Well, some things are better off ebing abbreviated like that, since they just sound stupid. But if all you have to say is "lol", its a waste of a post anyway.

That's why the post count was taken off cause the narbs can't handle it.
