Question Is there a new cap on the number of characters able to be used in thread headings?

Maybe it is just a quirk of Hilton Forum, but there are on page 1, titles far longer than I used here:

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=395489

How many Elites started off with the FT '2000 a Q'??

I really wished to title it:

How many current Elites started off with the FT "2000 miles per Q" points update deal?

But the template would not allow the longer heading - which outlined the thread topic more concisely. And I tried a few times to get it to take.

If John nor Dan might try and see if they can try the longer one, and see if it works from admin I'd appreciate it. I'll also email Mod squeakr to see if she might be able to access it, but not sure if Mods have the same tech access as the Admin guys do?

Thanks for any help you may offer, and if there has been a change to characters used, please advise - although this thread has a longer heading than the one that would not fit.

Neat! Many thanks for testing it out squeakr. ^

Can you please edit that longer title into the existing thread please:

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=395489

and if there is space please add a "?" to end of it! i.e.

How many current Elites started off with the FT "2000 miles per Q" points
update deal?


Interesting response so far - 4 x current Hilton Plats from that 1000 free points promo out of 4 replies.

Cheers Glen
