MII chat throws away text if you type more than 60 chars?

It looks like when you're chatting, if you type more than 60 characters, the rest is just thrown away and never displayed. Is this a known bug?

I don't think it's specifically 60, but the text controls will not let you type in more text than will fit in the available space. Myth's textbox control code doesn't support scrolling (horizontal or vertical), so you wouldn't be able to see the text past that point if you could type it in.

I thought it used to work better/differently. Someone else did too. Maybe it's just fond nostalgia :P Everything was better "back then".

Back then you had a smaller screen with a smaller resolution so you probably didn't notice.
