This Thread was created to tell ROBLOX to remove the chat limit. Please, do not spam forums nor curse about this. ROBLOX will terminate our Thread if they see us going about it in the wrong way.
Remember, we only want no chat limit

Please ROBLOX,

-- [[ TO THE ADMINS AND MODERATORS: ]] --
Please note that most of us here learned scripting from a Script Builder. Also, some of us come on ROBLOX just to script with people. Please don't say "There is no point of have no chat limit" because "There is no point of having a chat limit". I would also like to request for you to help us to just have the old chatbar back, but new chatbar with no limit is also fine.

There is no good reason to chat so many characters.

There are problems with the chat, yes, but the length limit is not one of them.

Unless the chat limit is something ridiculously small (perhaps 140 character), then whatever length it is now is probably fine. I'd assume it's 255 character just on the basis that 2^n-1 tends to show up all the time.

As long as that limit doesn't extend to GUI TextBoxes and TextLabels, I have no complaints.

you do realise that the chatbar is basically a ROBLOX GUI TextBox?

Script Builder got me interested in scripting. It didn't teach me anything.

xSIXx, it makes sense that it is, is it a CoreGui object too?

The chatbar is not well made though, I often have an issue where it capitilises words wrong or caps do not appear at all. It takes focus away in ways it shouldn't. I can name many more issues. At this moment in time the old bqr was better, but I know this new one will be eventually.

An option to remove the chat GUI entirely (no bubble, no classic, but keep the events for chat and the "/" chat bar) would be nice. There's plenty of people who've scripted high-quality replacements for normal chat, and being able to implement them without the interference of having to default to bubble chat would be convenient.

Stravant, you can't be on Sorcus's side!

Sorcus, is that a valid point you have there.....?

@Thread
I hate the new chat cause the old one was fine, and there is nothing better in the new one. So, agreed.

script builders are just filled with morons spamming free modeled/stolen scripts.

seriously, if you want to test scripts, make your own game and invite friends.

Well actually the new chat bar prevents most stolen scripts.

@sonic,

@Thread,

I have yet to encounter any problems with the new chat gui so I have no idea what you're all complaining about.

@Legend, there were a couple of issues for which fixes have been committed such as key events tunneling through the chat bar. But yeah I have no idea what the other "valid" complaints are.

I have one example, but its kinda a lame one.

Anyway, I was in a game with a friends and I wanted to show them a script, but it was 1300 characters long. I managed to get it right under 1000 characters to execute it, but by that time everyone was gone and I basically wasted time. It would have been easier if I had no limit and could have showed them before they left, and have a script that looks good.

Did you guys fix the problem about mouse events being activated while typing on GUI text boxes or the chat bar?

@Sorcus

You never went to SBs or spent a lot of time on it. So I don't think you have the right to judge. SBs did teach me and gave me interest on scripting by watching other people script. SBs is obviously not as good as studio for developing, but its absolutely more fun than studio.
