Roblox is changing the chat bar character limit to far lower than it currently is, this will end up making more scripts unusable in game, so if you're like me, and like to play on Script Builder and such, then you are probably going to also going to ask "Why would roblox do to SB what they did to Insert Wars?" and the answer is, who knows, What they don't seem to understand is that once they broke insert wars, everyone moved to script builders, now when they make script builders nearly unusable, Most of the people who played on script builders, and enjoyed them, will just leave to play other games, I personally only play script builder when online mostly, and otherwise make scripts FOR script builder, what they are doing frankly, is just dumb, if you want to LOSE players Roblox, this is the way to do it, if you would prefer the current chat bar to stay, or at least the current character length, then please, let Roblox know that what they are doing is only ruining the game, worst of all, its ruining a form of creativity in the game, the power to in game script, so basicly, all the scripts you can use in script builders and with admin, will no longer be usable, Thanks Roblox, You're just fantastic.

Why would you even play an SB? All it is is free models and crash trolls.

Either way, you can't run any largish scripts off the chat bar with the new one, and I'm not talking about Animus' SB, I'm talking about Script Builders in general

The new character limit is still plenty for any script you'd possibly want to use.
There are plenty of workarounds as well.

I used to troll on SBs using a bytecode exploit that shutdown the game

One of my scripts I made specifically for Script builders is about 7500 characters which is about 240 lines... 1000 characters averages me a 35 lines script.

While this won't affect me greatly, I know i used to play around in Script builders a lot and certainly helped me learn Lua....

The length of my code is more than six times the new character limit
in the number of lines.

Yeah, the character limit really got to me. I basically made this because of it:

It's because their TextBox GUI's have a silly character limit, and for some reason they feel inclined that the current chat system doesn't meet sufficient needs. (even though it works fine as is)

It works extra fine how it is. I still have the old chat-bar even when I completely and fully uninstalled ROBLOX.

(Uninstall on ROBLOX Player and Studio)
(Search through registry for anything that has "ROBLOX" or "RBLX" and removed it all)
(Removed the Application Data)
(Restarted)

And I still have it <3

At the least we should be allowed to choose what chatbar we want via settings...

Uhm sorry roblox but if this is to prevent hax, then you can just do this...

s = ""
x = game.Players.LocalPlayer
x.Chatted:connect(function(e)
if e == "e" then
ypcall(function() loadstring(e)() s = ""end)
else
s = s..e
end
end)

143 characters.

Honestly if its to stop hacking then place owns can put in the less than a minute effort to search free models for an anti exploit script.

And besides, its not like hackers cant just toggle toolbox with game:service'TestService':DoCommand('ToggleToolbox') or grabtool, orvwhat ever game cmd they want to execute, all the new chat is stopping is scripters.

I really fail to see any problem.
You could use Marketplace service and loadstring if you really needed a longer script, or even insertService...

@Arceus Not all scriptbuilders are filled with crazy lunatics ruining everyones fun... The Oxcool sb is a good example. Sometimes, there is noobs but they leave

The point is the current chat bar works fine, there is no need to change it.

Yes, we've already had this conversation with Sorcus. He basically said, and I quote here...
