Good morning folks,
I got curious about the character max in here so I had to dig a little to check. For posts, the character limit is 50000. When you copy and paste from other places, like Word, emails, and other websites, the HTML formatting gets copied as well and counts against the character limit. That's why the character count is greater than what's visible in the post.
Also, your post might look wonky when you try to copy/paste in here. I've learned from experience to copy/paste from Notepad, which has no formatting.

Edit: I just learned something else! CTRL-Shift-V in Windows pastes without formatting; no need for Notepad.
You're welcome, lakeland4 !
OK, so I just tried this. I copied text and posted it in this message -- it was 3006 characters total and posted just fine (I'm editing it now so the big block of text is gone). I wonder why you're not able to go past that 3000 character limit. Curious.
