hmmmmmmm are you thinking of the messages Admin. They have a limit and that includes the quoted message. so if like me you are long-winded you have to delete some of the quoted message to get your novel written. I don't think it works like that with posts.

Well - a message is a spoken, written or electronic form of communication to someone and a post is something that holds a fence up - innit
