The meaning of those long titles is just to annoy you and piss people off, and to attract attention. Their basically created by spammers.
Well yeah, we know that. Limit to amount of characters that can be used for a title? Since the really long ones usually gets renamed anyway.

When a mod gets on.
Some spammers are smart enough to post it when mods aren't online, and that's when we can't do anything about it. They don't like, do much, but I don't know what goes through those people's minds.

Yeah, I think limit characters would be a good idea.
(I just said that in my first post on this thread)

Nope, and don't ask me about facebook, because I don't go on there either. AG chat?

But seriously, did someone hack onto my account and told you I would be gone for two years?

On topic: At least those long titles don't appear that often. They usually don't cover the whole page like the 3 that appeared today.

They don't stay on very long, but they do check multiple times every day if their not busy, and there are quite a few mods...(and 1 admin)

I thought there already was a limit on titles. There should have been one a long time ago.

Wait, I need to find the link.

I don't think anyone hacked my account, or they would have changed the password. Plus, no AP changes or anything. No differences from the last time I was on.

no joke.


I believe ya.

There's only a limit for commments, they should show how many characters you have left and stop you from posting if you overpassed it.

Don't worry jond, if anyone wants to further discuss this, the AG chat will be the place.

So here are the ideas so far:

-censorship
-character limit

I already gave him the link, Ricador, on his comments.

And the comment appears to have come from a fake identity on myspace...
