I do understand that WPM or whoever made this rule that you can not post too short posts. But I it bad in game corner because there are many games where I would just write*/* (*=number) but I can not. If it is possible it would be better if WPM would make this rule not aply in sub-frums.
Why can't I post short posts?
- Thread starter PaperAirplane :F
- Start date
As you said in the thread which is about the HP, EV & EXP below our avatars, WPM will not know the answer to every question. So a forum admin's extent of control over each forum may be limited. Therefore he may not be able to apply this rule to the game corner forum unless each forum has its own set of rules.
The posts most likely have a "5char" rule, meaning that the board itself will consider it an invalid post if you have less than 5 characters in it. Board games are understandable, so if you're response only needs a number, simply post "5char" so that we know why your post was so short. I'll take a look and see exactly what you are talking about now and report back.
EDIT: No, there's no restriction on posting there. The Game Corner games are probably the one area that we will overlook short posts, as long as it still has something to do with the game. For example, the rate out of 10 games don't have to be more than 4 or 5 characters, so we understand that. We aren't going to harp on you there, but for the rest of the forums, please refrain from making short posts.

I can just tell you. http://www.pokebeach.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=4772&page=last here I did */* and just hold spaces.
In that game, posting short posts like that is fine. The other rate out of 10 games are fine as well, otherwise we'd be warning a LOT of people.
I wondered about that at some point but I just try the best I can if it is short or long so I just try and I forget about that rule alot because I try to help and stuff but I sum it up so I don't have to type a lot so I can check more threads.
