Every character in your post, whether visible or not, gets counted towards the character limit.
Which means even things such as:
Code:
[color=ffffff][/color]
count as 22 characters, so anything you put in the post will pass the test.
I made a plugin a while ago that stripped all mybb code out of a post and ran the plaintext against the character limit, but I'm not sure if I still have it.
I'm not on the computer at the moment so I can't check.
