In the "IT will be revealed" thread... <a href="http://forums.appleinsider.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=6&t=000129" target="_blank">here</a>

the 38th post which is mine... the URL link I try to use keeps getting cut up by your end...???

do you know any reason why it cuts up the word "Title" in the post...???

it might screw up here too... I'll try it...

Hm, not that I know of. Since you say it only happens here, it must be fixable. I'll look into it.

Weird. :)

In your UBB control panel, select Miscellaneous Settings. The last setting is "String Length Limit." Change this to allow longer strings of text, like long URLs. I believe the default is 180.

As far as I know, it's in gorgonzola's hands.

I agree that it's an irritating limitation.
