Increase the reply limit.
I feel like the best compromise is 50 or 75.9999999999999999999999999999999That was a little too contradictory to connect the dots on. I recommend phrasing things to be more clear.that post basically meant support this must me added -snip-
Anyways, how high do you think the reply limit should be?
idk honestly. but a lot higher than 25

I'm in a bunch of RPS, maybe remove the limit all together?

For anyone who thinks this is unnecessary: I'm in an RP where discussions go into the 100s of comments within like an hr. 50-75 is a good idea, I'm thinking more 150 however. Still within the range where, its not going to get too laggy but its a decent number

Yes, please consider increasing or getting rid of the reply limit. I've been involved in RP threads with more than 1,000 replies before, and being limited to 25 replies is very inconvenient. Also, I dislike that we can't see the exact studio follow/curator count. I'm part of a very large studio, and we used to celebrate reaching a new 500 to 1,000 followers by doing something like throwing a Scratch party. Not being able to continue this tradition is very sad. I know that the ST did this for a reason, but there are many cons to the new update that many people aren't happy about. I understand that it may take time, but this would be something that most Scratchers would greatly appreciate. <33

I feel like 100's good, but kinda small. I've seen roleplays with thousands of replies. (I know the limit was implemented so these long roleplays don't happen, but maybe the limit could be bigger than 100.) As part of an update to scratch, the ST have decided to implement a reply limit. Part of this is to take action against chat studios. Right now, the limit is 25 replies. This is too little. I think it should be up to 50-100 due to roleplays and constructive discussions on studios. This should be a good compromise between the scratchers and the ST.
Edit: I'd rather be safe and not have people discussing it's removal. I'd rather not risk increasing the chance of this topic getting closed.

It was actually to help prevent lag, so I think 50-100 should still prevent sufficient lag and have more functionality.I feel like 100's good, but kinda small.

50 is actually already too much. Additional lag is caused when studios are frequently refreshed every few seconds (notably the roleplay and chat studios, or popular studios where comments are checked frequently by multiple people). I doubt you want to go back to the good ol' 1.x days when studio comments didn't exist, or go back to older comment limit models where the reply limit was under 20!

Maybe we can revisit the limit sometime in the future, depending on how much support we get, but with the way website activity is now now, we're unfortunately kinda stuck with 25 as the happy medium.

I would like to say it's not unfortunate and is completely fine. As I see no harm in making a new thread. I think you guys severely overestimate about how much stress that servers that rely on donation money can handle.
50 is actually already too much. Additional lag is caused when studios that are frequently refreshed every few seconds (such as the roleplay and chat studios) every few seconds, or featured studios where comments are checked frequently. I doubt you want to go back to the good ol' 1.x days when studio comments didn't exist, or go back to an older comment limit models where the reply limit was under 20!

Well, like I mentioned before, with the way website activity is now, we're sticking with a limit of 25, and any chance at an increase will need to be revisited in the future. It's way too early to tell if a 30 comment limit for studios can be handled at this point in time.What about 30?

Welp… I guess it's time to close and wait until the activity dies down or the servers get better, and would that make this rejected?

And how does a reply limit help with this? There are the same amount of page refreshes per reply on studios still, even with a reply limit – The reply limit just means that the comments in those studios will be far more unorganized, not decreasing lag in any way. Adding to this, if lag really wanted to be decreased so much they would create a bit of a larger project for fetching replies efficiently and only when needed, not loading them all at once. …Additional lag is caused when studios are frequently refreshed every few seconds…
Nobody's asking for it. What are you implying with this? …I doubt you want to go back to the good ol' 1.x days when studio comments didn't exist, or go back to older comment limit models where the reply limit was under 20!…

Support. I of course would rather no limit, but raising the limit does seem more realistic and if it is put into effect it would be a good compromise.
