Why does this happen?

Post by db5 »

I tried to reply to a post and got this message: "The message you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 10 characters."

I lengthened it by 10 characters and got the same message. Fifty characters and the same message.

What kind of characters? I think characters that are hidden (part of the bb code and enclosed in brackets), the characters that make emoticons, etc. don't count toward the 10 character minimum. But I could be wrong.

The above was a test. It looks like bbcode does not count toward the 10 character minimum, but emoticons do.
