My 1st question in that thread :
When you rate a post, you can add a comment. But if the comment is too long, then other people couldn't read the whole message, it is cut after 40 characters ??? The ...
Don't understand - this is your first post on THIS thread?
If not, which thread are you referring to when you say "THAT" thread?
You've not posted on here prior?
Anyway, The comment field accompanying your rating will only show up in public to I think 65 or 70 (NOT 40 only) characters; but you can write as much as you want as a Private message to the OP who you've rated, and he will get the complete message (but of course only with the first 65-70 characters showing up publicly)
If you want to let others see everything (publicly) that you write (beyond 65-70 characters), then you should just put up a reply post.
65-70 characters is usually enough to write "one-liners" - something which used to be endemic AND generally detested - and this increase in the # of characters to now being 65-70 (i/o the previous 40) have largely eliminated these one-liners.
