Reply error

I made a reply, and it was instantly deleted. No messages, no nothing. I used zero foul language, and the project was mine. What happened? It was a long reply.

Re: Reply error

If it is over 250 characters, it wouldnt work and it would delete the message.  Maybe thats why?

Re: Reply error

Yeah. I think I've had the same thing happen a couple times, in both cases with char#<250.

Re: Reply error

It is because you went over the limit in characters but, sometimes its hard because it doesnt have a counter when you reply, you pretty much have to keep it very short. Maybe they could put a counter for characters on reply's?

Re: Reply error

there is another possible reason. i had something similar to me but it was because i had gone back or something. refreshing made the message appear.

Re: Reply error

It is probably due to the length of the message. I agree, we should show a counter. We'll work on that.

Thank you Andres! Until now, I did not know there even was a limit to reply length.
