Can someone tell me what the exact character limit is per post in the game forum?
if no one knows maybe one of the forum moderators can help shed some light on this?

Thank you.

If you are bumping up against the limit, you are talking too much.

What's the ASCII code for tldr? I think that's the answer.

you forget to know how not to be an idiot?
cant count what doesnt get posted.

it might be an android problem but I think apple players have the same issue. I managed to post a message with 320 characters but I wasnt able to post a message of 600 characters. when I try to post it the game shuts down and restarts.

I could start with the 320 character message and add characters and try and post and redo that step until I get to the cap but I figured that if anyone in here that knew what the exact count is and want to be helpful instead of the usual tools who lurk this forum 24/7 just so they can give a hard time to anyone asking a question(wow some life you guys must have!) then I could save some time

Here's a novel idea. Stop using a god awful CC forum chat and use a 3rd party app that is used for chatting.

using both works fine.

the thing I want to post is that new members need to download our communication app and how to. some people arent good with technical stuff still they are great players, they need a bit of explenation to know exactly how to do things

There's an easy way to get around the limit. Instead of writing out words, assign every word a 4-character hexadecimal number and post the translation table in the cloud. Since English words have an average of 5 letters each you'll have a 20% reduction in character usage and everyone will be happier. 00AE 01D8 0005 1AA2 0C32 211B 0041 0C32

Either that or try email.

Stop letting people in randomly. Have them get a hold of you via 3rd party chat app. I couldn't tell you the last time I looked at syndicate forum.

Im not going to limit my way of getting new members into the syndicate by chosing only 1 channel just because of a character cap lol. we get a lot of good players through the list in the game. anyways I only wanted to know what the character cap was, not tons of advice about how I shouldnt use the forum. Im using the forum and the chat app and Im going to continue to do that cause it gives good results

Anyways I only wanted to give advice about how you shouldn't use the forum, not count the letters for you. Im giving free advice on the forum and Im going to continue to do that cause it's fun and makes me feel superior.
