1000-char PM limit

1000 characters is not a lot. For example, this message alone is 230 characters. I've spent a lot of time paring mine down to fit this limit. Is it possible for this to be extended? Even 2000 characters would be much better.

I agree. I've only sent 5 or 6 PMs but every single one was over 1000 characters so I had to edit it. But none were over 2000 . . . Probably just a coincidence, but I bet lots of messages fit in that range and wouldn't need editing with a 2000 limit.

Ok, I have tenatively doubled the limit to 2000. We'll see how it works. The 1000 char limit didn't do much good since people would send me part1, part2, etc.
