Max post length
Max post length should be increased to allow flg posts

Currently the max length for a post on the forum is 10k characters. I think this is in dire need of increasing - not because of my tendency for ridiculously lengthy posts, but also because of anyone wanting to post flgs to the YAVP and YASD subforums. An end game flg can easily reach 30k characters. Now, granted, I really think people should be encouraged to snip these down by removing most of the eq and kill lists, but 10k is still very restrictive. Possibly it should be increased to 15 or 20k?

Easily changed in vBulletin Options >> Message Posting and Editing Options >> Maximum Characters Per Post
(setting a value of 0 makes it unlimited - well, limited to 16 MB, but I presume that might leave the forum more vulnerable to some sort of spamming attack)
