The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
The limit for reviews was recently reduced to 6000 characters. This is due to be further reduced to 4000 characters as we feel that most people prefere to read shorter reviews.
We hope to have a place for Walkthroughs soon with a much higher character limit.

6000 characters is not enough for some people. It don't bother me however.
6000 characters is ample. I don't see the problem.
Ah, you know what needs to be put here....curse the language filter.

Why should SR ban people from posting reviews here? The new lower character count will mean that people copying reviews - generally those which span the full 10,000 characters - from another source will not be able to post in the reviews section unless they shorten it - I doubt they'd have the knowhow though, seeing as all they can do is copy and paste. If they do need to post it (the cheating people) they can post in the forums, people can read, become suspicious and complain - having the cheats eliminatd from the website.
However, those, like myself and others who legitimately post longer than 4000 character reviews will find it hard to cut down in size, possibly, and may need to post in a forum. Maybe there should be a new reviews forum for reviews longer than the allowed amount? I honestly think that'd be a good idea, but then I did just think of it and someone else may have done already, if that is the case, I agree with them.
Now, as I currently type a THPS2 review, I am going to try and make it 4000 or less. Shouldn't be too hard due to all the lost modes and features in the GBA game compared to the console versions.
Anyway
Don't ban people who don't do any harm.
