Either my phone browser has decided to display a previously unseen problem it has, or I just hit the post character limit for the first time ever - something that never happened in any of my old RTDs.

WTF. The post in question couldn't be that long, surely?!
Now I have to decide what to do later. And this happened just when the creative juices were flowing nicely!

40K character limit last time I checked? No?

[Neonivek]

Gravity Falls is pretty good, and Alex Hirsch had the wisdom to end it at Season 2 rather than let it become the mess that Teen Titans is.

I didn't think Teen Titans was so bad. Its issue was that it went out on a weak season but it still had potential.

Heck the final season could have been amazing if they didn't make the villains weaker just to let the heroes win.

[A Thing]

Character limit is definitely 40k. Pretty sure BBC code bits count as characters by the way.

[Orange Wizard]

forty thousand btw

[EnigmaticHat]

Really?  Cause I heard it was .04 million.

I'm glad someone made that joke so I don't have to.

Also, re: post limit, I lost what I'd written again due to a phone malfunction, so I can't exactly count the characters.
I think I shall wait until I have a chance to post it from a computer.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

It is the 41st page. For more than a hundred threads The Toad has sat immobile on the Dank Throne of Announcements. He is the Master of Bay12 by the will of the gods, and master of a million boards by the might of his inexhaustible memes. He is a coding amphibian writhing invisibly with power from the Dark Age of Various Nonsense. He is the Character Limit of Simple Machines for whom a thousand dwarfs are sacrificed every day, so that he may never truly die.

Yet even in his deathless state, the Toad continues his eternal vigilance. Mighty battlethreads cross the kitchenbot-infested miasma of the Internet, the only route between distant forums, their way lit by the Download Page, the psychic manifestation of the Toad's will. Vast armies give battle in his name on uncounted flame wars. Greatest amongst his soldiers are the Adeptus Tabula, the Shitposters, bio-engineered super-posters. Their comrades in arms are legion: the Roleplayers and countless roll to dodge forces, the ever vigilant Mafia and the tech-priests of the DFHack to name only a few. But for all their multitudes, they are barely enough to hold off the ever-present threat from ayyys, trolls, kitchenbots - and worse.

To be a character in such times is to be one amongst untold billions. It is to live in the cruelest and most bloody postcount imaginable. These are the tales of those times. Forget the power of technology and archiving, for so much has been forgotten, never to be re-learned. Forget the promise of chill and composure, for in the grim dark future there is only character limit warnings. There is no peace amongst the forums, only an eternity of shitpost and memes, and the laughter of dank gods.

TBF's, I presume?

[SOLDIER First]

 I'm in the top five...

[Teneb]

I'm in the top five...

For now. Your postcount is less than half of his.

Bloody hell, typing 40k characters by phone sounds painfully slow and boring. _{^{This is an assumption based on my experiences with touch screen keyboards, which as far as I've seen are absolute trash.}}

[chaotic skies]

If you're good with a touchscreen, fairly patient, and have an accurately configured touchscreen, it wouldn't be too slow, but it'd still be painful.
