forum size limit
Increase forum size limits to 100KB or more. Right now the limit is 50KB, which really limits forum posts to only text and can't include low res graphics. I would like to see the forum size limit increased or allow administrators to set the forum size limits in the settings.

Was just on the chat with tech support. The developers say the reason for the limitation is "to avoid bots from spamming with long messages" - so it is OK for them to spam with short messages? I'd much rather have to deal with cleaning up spam than from being unable to make useful posts. Maybe the answer is to separate the forum function from a news feed function that requires back-end privs like the current email functionality emails in order to save/post.

Wow. Nothing in five years on this. We use the forum functionality for our news feed. I send the out as emails, then want to save them as a 'forum post' (but it is really a blog post). The limit seems completely arbitrary. I can created events and emails that are megabytes in size, but I can't even add a table to a news post because the HTML takes it over the 50kb limit.
