Hi Randy,

I was wondering if there was any way around the limitation of the number of characters in a post. Currently, it appears to be set at 10,000 characters.

I've been unofficially maintaining a post in the Mileage Run section called Mileage Run Tools - which has been stickied to the top of that Forum - it's kind of like a comprehensive listing of tools that Mileage Runners & non-Mileage Runners can use. This post (pre-new-FT) had just under 15,000 characters in it - I can't edit it now because of the 10K maximum (unless I delete a heck of a lot of stuff - 1/3 of the post - and even if I do that, I wouldn't be able to update it & add to it as new tools become available).

I was wondering if it was at all possible to figure out a way to work around this. A couple of ideas (and I have no clue if they'd work as I know very little about how Bulletin Board systems works) include not restricting the number of characters (for that post or even for all posts as it was on "FT Classic") or to possibly create another single links-only webpage in the Flyertalk.com domain that doesn't have that sort of restriction. I was thinking about getting some free webspace with Geocities, Tripod, or one of those other random free-web sites, but I figured that wouldn't be as good as having it be a part of FT because of the fact that those are owned by giant faceless corporations & this one isn't.

I'd like to continue with keeping it up (or even pass on the job to someone else - doesn't matter to me) as I feel that it's a useful thread for all FT'ers & Mileage Runners - but I'm just at a loss as how to do it. Any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks!
