How long can a note be?

Recommended Posts

I usually leave notes around and decided to keep a log of interactions with players on a role play server I was wondering how long can a note be before I have to start a new one?

Good question...

I did know and it was talked about back in the day, buggered if I can remember now.

I'll see if I can get the info, 256 characters comes to mind but that doesn't sound right.

Thanks for the reply but I knowni have written notes longer than 256 character so it must be more than that. Will have to test this in a couple of days I guess. I'll make a 100 character note then copy and paste it till it's not showing up anymore.

So after 2 weeks I finally found pen and paper to test this out. I wrote a 100 characters non spaced. I then pasted the notes back to back until i could not read anymore. I made sure to use 3 capital letters to start it so I could see were it repeated. After pasting 10 times (1000 characters non spaced) It goes to a little over 900 characters non spaced before you are unable to scroll down or see the rest of the note. In conclusion you are safe to write notes non spaced up to 900 characters.

Any way to identify if a paper has been written on, without picking up and reading. It would be cool if description said paper when not, and 'hand written note' once someone does write on it.

I almost always leave a note on my body. I'll either write an odd twisted story, or curse whoever finds it blaming them for my death, or write a song quote. I nearly always sign it "- Death By Crowbar". Ever since cannibalism I've done a few that are simply , "Eat me. -Death By Crowbar"

Nope they are the same, hopefully they will update it to show some scribble on it.

I leave notes as well with either my RP name or if non RP contact info but have yet to recieve anything.
