Would it be possible to ensure that a post is over X characters - like in admin panel you can set a max number of characters but I want to be able to set a minimum as well to stop one word posts like "lmao"

But then whats to stop then from posting

lmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmao lmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmao lmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmao lmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmao lmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmao lmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmaolmao

etc??
Nothing. But it stops posts like
"..." or "Smile"
which is more annoying than lmaolmaolmao. Only useful for when your forum is frequented by people who's average IQ is less than their age Smile

EDIT: If it's not in the next version of MyBB I'll make this mod.
Will have a look @ this, was already planning this Smile
Update: i got it working for new reply's. i'm adding some stuff, and need to incorparate it in new topic etc..

expect it for tomorrow (monday).

Update2: Almost finished. Just need to make some english text & make it work with quick reply
And done...
This will be my last mod for RC4 Smile
