Message Length And Emoticons


Guest Leidenschaft

Recommended Posts

Hi, I tried to post a VERY long message in the Let's Talk about our Pets topic... :lol: and when I tried to post, I got an error message that I had used more emoticons than the board allowed... however it did not say HOW many I was allowed and how many I had. Anyway, after taking out a whole bunch of emoticons and trying each time to post, I finally thought perhaps my message was too long and broke it into two parts.... I didn't bother going back to insert my emoticons again, but I'm wondering for future, how long can a message be, and how many emoticons can we use?

Thanks! :D

Tammy, I had to giggle when I read your post. I can't imagine how long your post was that you had used more than 20 emoticons! :o:lol:

God bless,

:o Every time I tried to use emoticons :unsure: they wouldn't work. <_< I could only get them to go at the end of the page. :huh: Now I see that I have to put them in as I type ;) instead of after I finish my message! :lol: These are so cool! B) Thanks for the emoticons :D

I sometimes just use the shortcuts...so instead of clicking, where it might go to the end of your post, you can type a colon and a right paren. to make a smiley face or a colon and then a D to make a big grin or a colon and then a P to make the tongue sticking out face. If you click on "show all" you can see the shortcuts...I guess I've just used them a lot so I've inadvertently memorized them :lol:

      I was suffering from PF just previous to being dx with celiac disease about 25 yr. ago but have not been troubled with it since. Not sure what the connection between the two is of if there is one. But I do know it is a very painful condition that takes your breath away when it strikes.

      I have dealt with proctalgia fugax on and off for a year now. It feels almost paralyzing during an episode and they have started lasting longer and longer, sometimes 20+ minutes. I was recently diagnosed with celiac disease and wonder if the 2 are related. I did request a prescription for topical nitroglycerin for my PF episodes and that has helped tremendously!

      Hey @Butch68, I also have dermatitis herpetiformis but don't suffer from it anymore. I used to drink Guinness too but I drink Cider now when out on social occasions. I assume you are in Ireland or the UK. If it's any good to you ... 9 White Deer based in Cork brew a range of gluten-free products including a gluten-free Stout. I'm not sure if they are certified though. https://www.9whitedeer.ie/ I haven't come across any certified gluten-free stouts this side of the pond.

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/
