Is there any chance the blog posting character limit could be raised here? I ask because on several occasions, my latest blog entry being one such case, I have had to split posts in two. Having to split posts is a real inconvenience.
city-data does not have a whole lot of blog posting going on, relative to all the other activity going on at city-data.com, so it would seem that increasing the character limit or even doubling it won't have any appreciable impact on server load.
Granted that an increased character limit might motivate would be bloggers to start new blogs here or existing bloggers to write more but such would accrue to city-data's benefit in better search engine rank for the site as a whole I think. Not to mention that it is better I think to set a restriction in place to handle overwhelming participation than having restrictions in place that hinder or discourage participation such that blogging never becomes all it can be here.
