[Bug] Forum OPs have no character limit for edits
Mirrored from this topic, consider merging



I was able to break a thread entirely by dumping 1.8 MILLION characters at peak, and after subsequent edits, it doesn't load any longer.

What is known so far
  • Dumping about 120 thousand characters to an edit causes E502 L3
    This also extends to My Comment History until a moderator deletes it!
  • Dumping an absurd amount of characters to an edit (confirmed with 1.89 million) causes the parser to generate an empty OP, but the page does load

Edit: examples removed due to breakage



If this is officially recognised, please consider reviewing other issues I outlined here, especially the last section.
