| Jan 27, 2017 at 7:08 | comment | added | Jacob Vlijm | ...I think 30.000 makes sense. It makes sure even substantial scripts can be posted (I looked, in some cases up to appr. 12000 chars were posted), while spam or insanely high amounts of code are prevented. | |
| Jan 27, 2017 at 7:03 | comment | added | Manish Kumar Bisht | That's my point. Why should there be limit of 30000? It is too high and can be kept at a low level, right? | |

No one is ever going to read 30000+ chars of code, just to answer a question. It makes a question imo unreadable. This is not the place to spam with code (which would literally be an option if there was no limit). If you really think posting such amounts of code is needed, use pastebin. However, If information on specific lines of output are needed, anyone answering a question would ask to grep for anything.
