Okay.
You have as many lines as you want to make your point clear on the Boards.
In Descriptions there is a word limit, but it is around a thousand words.
I've sold stories with fewer words than that.
If you want people to read your work:
Don't use all caps. It is considered shouting and very rude.
Re-read what you have written before posting it.
Then correct the spelling, grammar and punctuation.
When you don't you appear ignorant at best, and scammers feast on the ignorant.
And there is a reason almost every sentence in my post is on a different line. That again makes it easier to read on a screen.
For my clientele of philatelists, there is a well understood jargon. So I can say a stamp is VFNH and the buyer will understand what is meant.
But I can write out Very Fine Never Hinged and the less sophisticated collector will have a bit more knowledge.
Philatelists have the advantage of internationally recognized catalogues and numbering systems, of course, which is not available to other hobbyists.
You can put the jargon in your title, and expand on the jargon in the description.
