Subject: A limit on the length of comments, perhaps?
Hi, Chucky,
I guess that by the time you read this, you'll have spotted what I'm talking about... that nearly 6MB comment that'll totally shaft anyone on dial-up
As to how long comments should be, the longest one as a comment to any of my songs is just under 1400 bytes - so maybe a 2k limit?

there is supposed to be a limit on comment length, but it's apparently not working right. I purged the annoying comments this twit left, and I'm working on preventing it in the future.

it's fixed. I also prevent the extremly long string nonsense people pull from to time too. There's one other change I think I'll make this weekend (I'd do it now, but I had to waste my lunch break solving this, which gets under my skin).
