I have to come down on the side of no character count because I think everyone appreciates receiving encouragement, even if it is brief. This results in people continuing to post substantive info. Haven't we all seen someone post something and then get discouraged if there are no subsequent posts acknowledging their work Of course it is not good if the reply post is abused but I would prefer to see those get dealt with on as needed basis. Like many things, I think granting discretion (in this case to post) should (in theory) work better than rigid mechanical rules.
