And what if they do become like Facebook/Twitter updates? What’s it to you?

VuTales expects its members to exhibit common sense; beyond that I don’t see a need to impose limits.

@David – meh, no need to enforce the automatic limit too much. That’ll just make people type filler text (which is easier to do against word counts anyway; “- – – – – – – – – -” counts as 10 words).

I would say a dividing line of 200 characters is fine.

Other detail suggestions:
BBCode doesn’t count toward the char limit
Block-level tags ([header], [img], [quote], [dividers] etc) don’t get parsed in snippets, and consecutive newlines are parsed into one (to keep vertical length small)
Snippets have a liked-it but don’t count toward total
On peoples’ profiles, appears in chronological order among blogs, but are categorized separately on main page

Edit: And I see there’s a new (edit) thing.

I cheated on this one. In two ways. First, I opened three terminals running infinite memory-intensive loops plus certain laggy flash games on highest graphics. Second you can see for yourself 🙂

Yeah, school internet’s usually pretty fast. It’s all shared, though, so it sucks if a lot of people are using it at once.

[Jil]

Sounds good.

What about image tags and formatting, though? Those things only work if they’re just plain text.

Never thought I’d say this, but this guy has it right.

Most of the time I just stream stuff anyway. Downloading wastes valuable disk space.

You should make code do syntax highlighting (there should be scripts for it out there somewhere). And put on some kind of background. So it’s not just

.

Edit: lol,

. even more janky :)

I’m pretty sure he meant in the preview. Any tag involving a = sign was breaking the preview before.

[14:36:11] o_O
[14:36:16] Annona
[14:36:22] I hacked the preview to make it work
[14:36:25] it’s such a hack
[14:36:30] wha
[14:36:31] I’m ashamed I did it
[14:36:34] lol
[14:36:50] but new lines and all tags now work

[Jil]

ts;dr

[Jil]

lol Captcha.

You could just put a simple text box cycling through a few simple questions like what the name of the site is.

[Jil]

Known issues:
– Newlines don’t display
– GET doesn’t like equal signs

Yeah, or change the button to do [header]. I forgot which it was, meh doesn’t matter.

Font and code tags don’t exist lul.

Oh and make it so [url]http://urlhere[/url] is an alias for [url=http://urlhere]http://urlhere%5B/url%5D.
