-Legend- wrote Most of you have noticed that when you try to make a post of a very short length, you're getting the following error:

"The message must contain at least 20 characters."

Unfortunately, the first reaction most of you have on this is immediately adding rubbish text at the end of your post, such as:

2020202020 aaaaaaaaaa nagsdo

and bypassing the twenty character minimum. Which is really bad of course, and it annoys the staff by making them waste there time to read reports about spam.


A lot of people don't seem to understand that the post length system exists for a reason, and that is to make you, TTG users, make longer, smarter, more meaningful posts.
So if you get the error message of your post being too short, it means the post you're attempting to make is of low quality, and you should formulate it into a better quality one, or not post it at all.

But then you'd say, what about posting in threads which require short posts? Like the "what's your name" threads, or "how old are you", etc. Well if you want to be considered as a high quality member, don't post in those threads. As simple as that.


Making a post in a thread to tell someone that you PMed them? Low quality.

Answering a yes/no question? Low quality.

Just expressing gratitude without anything else to say? Low quality.

Wanting to express how funny somebody's post is? Low quality.


Just because the thread does not need a reply that is at least 20 characters does not grant you the right to bypass the system, you can easily make your post longer by adding description and longer words.

You want to be considered as a good quality member? Make smart, meaningful posts that contribute to the community. Your posts count won't go up as fast, but its quality will, and your reputation in the community.


And yes bypassing the twenty character minimum for is against the rules so here is a direct copy and paste from the rules.

"20 characters
1) in order to post on the forums your post must be 20 characters and above we have started to see a trend were users will post pointless babble or random text like /20chars we will no longer stand for this if we see you do this your post will be deleted the reason for this is if your reply is less than 20 characters that content wont add to the thread itself if we see you add babble your post will be deleted without warning and your account may receive one of its 3 warnings or just be out right suspended without warning"

Meaning that if somebody is bypassing the 20 character minimum you can report the post for spamming.

If this helped you or you think I did a good job don't just post saying thanks, thank the topic.
TL;DR go read it.

good job man, rep! you deserve some for it

lol. your so right, i seee these all the time, 20202020 lol
