Here's another good reason to always type your messages into your word processor first, then copy and paste to your browser, especially if your message is long. That way if you lose anything while posting to Mudcat, it isn't lost forever. Also, you can use your spell-checker.

By the way, the Mudcat's limit seems to be about 6300 characters per message, including spaces, punctuation, and HTML. That's around 1200 words.
