A question about the site

why is there a minimum 10 character limit? and why does it matter if it’s a complete sentence
is it to prevent spam or something

Yeah i think so

but why 10 characters though
why not make it so that u can only reply every 10 seconds or something

10 character limit is to try catch people making responses like
“^ this” or
:poggerfish:
and encourage them to either like the post they liked, or write something more fleshed out

Hard to say if it works (when it does work, nobody knows), but the minimum has been steadily lowered over time so maybe we’ll give up on it one day.
I don’t know why we have a 15 character minimum on post titles. That makes less sense.

Done

To clarify what headless means by “Done”:

  • Minimum characters per post is now 3.
  • Post titles still need 15 characters, the first post in a thread still needs 20 characters.
