It's 20 characters just in case anyone was wondering. Good idea, let's hope that it works.

Excellent Impluo. Another way round a TFL rule - great work. Lol, just kidding mate. (Off Topic: Is your avatar of the Grim Reaper in 'The Adventures of Billy and Mandy'? I'm sure it was something like that, they changed the name from something else to that though...)

I was just telling him, I've had to use it on other forums that had character limits but the limits were set by default and the admin didn't care to remove them, I wouldn't try it here since the character restriction was put there for a reason. 
Yea it is Grim from "The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy". One of my favorite shows 
The show was originally titled "Grim and Evil" when Evil Con Carne was part of the show. The show title also differs in the place you live, I've seen a bunch of people from Europe refer to the show as "Grim".

lol, he said that somenone could just type:
"lol... characters..."
To say just lol, and to bypass the character minimum.

This would be classified as spam, which will get you a vacation if you work at it hard enough
