Forum: topic title is too strong limited
The possible number of characters of the topic title is too strong limited in the forum.

Yes, i was also surprised that only a few chars could be used.
I think maybe they want to limit # of ideas expressed in one post?

I think so too, but the forum members can easily generalize the topic title: "PB-IDE: A few ideas", "Found some bugs" and so on.Bo Marchais wrote:I think maybe they want to limit # of ideas expressed in one post?
Most likely used the PB team the forum as a To Do list and want to mark bugs as fixed separately. Therefore, it would be impractical, if a topic describes more bugs.
The limitation, however, is too strong. The PB team must sometimes shorten the title of the topic, so that they can put their mark "[Done]" before the topic title.

Yes, this is annoying and certainly not a 2016 limitation.
Maybe they prefer to see 1 line only per topic?
