At the risk of reopening a closed thread, so to speak, I think there is a need for something to help us all out. I'm not disputing he 5000 character limit. Although I would like to know what is being counted towards that limit. Are the characters in the tags counted, for example. Are spaces? Something that could let us know when we are near out limit or something. An active counter would be great. But if nothing else, something that when you go to post says, along the lines of, "Your post cannot be more than 5000 characters. You used 5103 characters." That would at least help us to know how better to edit or cut our posts. This specific aspect was not addressed in the last post on the issue. It closed the issue with the character count was good, and never touched the other concern/suggestion
