It appears that there is a limitation to the length of a posting. Is that true? If so, what is the limit?

There is and there isn't. The following line can be found in the web.config file:
<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="50" />
You can set that for whatever size you want. The idea is to keep people from uploading 10MB images to their profile photos.
I don't understand the logic of this response.

It seems to be much more that just a forum. Once you poke around you will see that Jeff has been busy.

Seems fast.
Jeff is your goal to get a user base and then sell none branded licenses?

My goal is to give it away. I'm not interested in selling it anymore. There's too much out there. With MS giving away a forum (needlessly complex, I might add), and the .Net Framework itself making things easier (see, Whidbey), it doesn't make sense. So the fact is, the forum was developed in the first place to suit my own needs, so I might as well put it out there for others to use. The only thing I want to do is to retain copyright.
The forum is fast because so much of the data is cached. If you look at the source code, say for example, the People class, you'll see that it doesn't hit the database for user data unless the cached data has expired or the data has been changed. |

| It's C#. It's easily translated to VB.Net if need be, though really I think people should be able to read both. |
