The thread title character limit should be increased, because thread titles are the fundamental 'advertisments' of a non-commerical bulletin board.
Consider the cruciality of the thread title: It attracts the interested reader, expresses the strategy of the thread poster, and hints at the quality within.
The thread title "philosophy" is that an annoying number of people try to write out their whole question/argument in the title, which defeats the purpose of titles.

 Character Rating Titles
Raters also help keep the character rating bourd clear of thousands of threds saying to rate thier character, insted they are compiled into one big thred, this also helps the bourd not look like a big mess.
On the downfall, if people got titles for rating characters, then thier would probly be tons of character rating threds, this would casue a problem with the archnights, mods, and staff, they would probly have to delete/lock up alot of threds, wich would take some time to do.

 Marvel Comics To Introduce Homosexual Title Character
Although "The Rawhide Kid" actually made his debut in 1955 in the wake of the success of the "Rawhide" television series, his forty-seven year state of sexual ambiguity is coming to an end.
The obvious impact that such an avowedly homosexual character appearing in a traditional masculine, heterosexual role--in a comic book format aimed at children in their formative years--cannot be overstated.
With busy parents able to spend less and less time supervising their children's recreational activities, the introduction of a positively-presented homosexual character into a comic book aimed specifically at young boys is very likely to fall below the radar screen of parental concern.

This question might sound odd, but users on one of the sites that I administer are not happy about this limit, and are also not happy with the response that that is just the way things are.

 Serkis has special effect on title character of 'Kong' - The Boston Globe
Serkis's movements and facial expressions were captured for the computer-generated creation of the pale and wasted Gollum in Peter Jackson's ''The Lord of the Rings" trilogy and again for the title character of Jackson's just-released ''King Kong," a remake of the 1933 classic.
But it's his eyes that bring a humanity to the creatures he plays, a wounded look, a longing for understanding.
Upon completing his scenes opposite Watts, Serkis spent the next two months on the motion capture stage at WETA Digital (Jackson's special-effects house) giving the character emotions, expressions, and a distinct movement that animators would turn into the computer animated ape.

 USATODAY.com - Courtney Love: Cartoon character   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
Fans of the genre are talking about Princess Ai (Tokyopop, $9.99), the first of a three-part manga series whose title character is based on the troubled, real-life rocker widow of grunge icon Kurt Cobain.
Her legal and personal troubles have forced her to cancel a summer tour to promote her new album, America's Sweetheart, and last week she entered a hospital in New York hours after she was declared a fugitive for missing a court hearing in Los Angeles.
Though Ai's character is inspired by Courtney's personality, Milky says, Ai's story is different: "She is, of course, a disillusioned and misunderstood celebrity just like Courtney, but her responsibility is to save her world and her people, and that's something for which, thankfully, Courtney's not on the hook in real life."

 The Missing Title Character
RANCESCO ROSI'S electrifying "Salvatore Giuliano" (1961), just released on DVD, is usually described as a political docudrama, but the movie, like its fugitive title character, is too elusive for labels.
In "Salvatore Giuliano" every small mystery breeds another, and then another, until, in the end, the mostly absent title character seems to be no more — and no less — than the sum of the questions we have about him: his ambiguity is his truth.
Once this lucid exposition is over, however, the story just gets blurrier and blurrier, as the film jumps backward and forward in time, forcing us with each abrupt temporal shift to adjust to a new set of characters and, in effect, a whole new political reality.
