OK, I just installed this hack surprisingly successfully on my first try. I do have one question though... Does anyone else notice a text display delay while typing and using this hack? Or is it just my computer? smile

It'll naturally cause a slight slowdown on any computer, since the portion of JavaScript that is used to count characters is executed every single time a key is pressed on the keyboard. It shouldn't slow down much though.

Nice mod, Ian thumbsup

This was slowing down my PC, so anyone who plans on a large post (mine was 6000 characters), I reccomend you type it out before hand, and paste it in
