I'm finding that our users are putting a very long title in.

I have a field set: Please give a brief description of the problem here

Well, they seem to think that brief means long....

So they go to submit a bug report, they are told by vBulletin that it's submitted...yet nothing ever shows up because the title is too long.

The way I had took care of this was go to your input textbox for the thread title and add maxlength="75". I believe the cut off is 80 but I just put 75 to be safe. This will work its funny to cause I just was asked to do this.

Has anyone gotten this to work where you must have a certain amount of post before you can do it.
