I do not think this is necessary. If we were to add more than 2,000 characters per post, it would be really hard to keep track of what exactly OP is trying to say. Whenever someone is trying to create a thread, it's always ideal to be as concise as possible so that you are able to keep the audience entertained and hooked. If I come into a thread and I see a wall of post with 5,000 characters, I can guarantee that I will be disappointed and most likely will not be able to focus on what you are trying to convey.
Now, if this idea were only to apply to anything else BUT the first post, then that's something else. The first post must be "sacred", sort of speak, due to the fact that it's what I'm going to read first (well, after the title, that is) and its content must be attractive and to the point. Other than that, I think it's unnecessary to add more characters than what we already have as it'd make it harder for the readers to stay attached to what's being shared.
As it stands, J-Mods do not have a character limit or are able to type a lot of characters in. If there is a limit, I forgot what it is, but the point is that they are able to type a lot of information into a post. I haven't seen this done in YEARS. If you do require more than 2,000 characters per post, that's why the next post is available. I just think it's easier the way it is instead of having a cluster of characters in one post.
