Message not long enough?

I keep getting a message up saying that I have not posted enough words to contribute to a thread. Even if my message is quite long. It is not happening on all the boards, just some. Any explanations? sorry if I posted in the wrong place :(

    Yes it is strange, and annoying particularly when you have typed out a fairly lengthy reply and then have to abandon it!!!!!!!!

    Does it happen in both editors (advanced mode and Quick Reply) or just one of the editors? If you are using the Enhanced WYSIWYG editor, try using the standard editor instead (in your options)
