@ponderable saidEspecially when one can get 10,000 characters 800 isn't very many words. Is it too late for you to change that to words?
Indeed this is why some voted for longer formats.
Edit I misread the characters for words...🙁

@very-rusty saidThis have been 21 words using 109 characters (without the 10000 and 800 and the adjacent spaces). So you would only need about 4000 characters for the 800 words and could still use some very large words without bordering to 10000 characters.

@ponderable saidQuite clear here you did say 800 words not characters!

@very-rusty saidA minor correction: your post should be signed Ponderable, not VR. ok?

@great-big-stees saidI believe that Ponderable mentioned the word 'me', and thus referred to himself. Not that it matters perhaps. 🙂
Perhaps one in the same? 🤔

@very-rusty saidJust communicating, dear VR, no harm, I gave thumbs up to your post btw.
Yea, makes a big difference, shows it was his original post....but you couldn't wait to throw a shot my way.....>LOL<......Too Funny!!!

@very-rusty saidOh dear, you seem to be in a bad mood today. I didn't try anything, you should know me better than that, I have been around for a while, longer than you may think.
You just tried to throw a shot, I really don't need thumbs up BTW!
Perhaps next time read it closer! 😉

@torunn saidYou can deny all you want and claim I'm in a bad mood but you made a mistake, just own up to it for a change. If you been around longer than is on your Profile then you are using another name. What would be new about that, and you certainly wouldn't be the first to do so!!!

@very-rusty saidAnd I have never kept it a secret that I have. Those who know me, know that.
