if that’s an option and it isn’t too hard to do I agree

Why do we need to change it in the first place? IIRC Panther's the first one to even need to split his (well written) wall of text since I've been here...

Object, people would start spamming large quantities of Chinese characters to lag computers.

Seriously though, what is this hatred against Chinese characters? This isn't even Minecraft we're talking about.

I've had to truncate log file evidence on IBR's before. But I've had to do it on flarum as well and this forum seems to have a much bigger character limit than that flaming pile of dogshit so it's a major improvement.

It's not hatred, they're just taxing to render, especially in large quantities.

But again, this is the FORUM we're talking about. It's not like people can spawn armor stands with UTF-8 names with &k and lag the forum.

No, they can't use Minecraft colour codes, obviously...

But a large quantity of Chinese characters can certainly lag a website and by extension a browser.
