I dont know if im the only one but i find it irksome to type in a message and mid sentence im cut of by the chat cap and have to send and send anogther message just to finish it.

so thats why i think a chat cap that is larger than a sentence, maybe 250-300 characters would be better than the current cause really 150 or so isnt enough, and is so annoying as i have to edit what i say or use acrynyms.

for example WTB and when people pm me they ask me how much im selling for when its obviouse that WTB = want to buy and WTS= want to sell. so all this causes players to get the wrong idea all this is due to the cap not being large enough. i can understand a need for a cap but the size of the current one instead of stopping spam it creates more.

so in summary larger cap or no cap at all

    I agree. I can't get my thoughts though because of the cap and I often get missunderstood.

    They probably have that, so there is not as much traffic on the servers. Otherwise, I agree.

    Yes, the cap can be very annoying. If I'm not paying attention I keep typing and typing and about half the words aren't even typed. And when a word is cut off I lose space in my next message trying to correct it. It would also make messages more clear.

    In contrast world chat would get out of hand FAST, b:shocked which none of us want to see.

    Sounds about right
