Short Description:

Remove the 64 character minimum for physical descriptions. It is frustrating to deal with when you prefer shorter, concise, and to the point descriptions. Furthermore, it negates the use of detailed descriptions, which I have used in the past before the 64 character minimum, making most character descriptions have to be textwalls, with some not even compatible with the screen resolution of certain players.

I think it would be better if players were allowed more freedom with how they choose to describe their character, instead of it being mandated. The detailed description feature exists for a reason.

Character descriptions, in my opinion, should be short and to the point in correlation with what can be seen about a character at first glance, with more obscure features (eye color, etc.) being reserved for a detailed or genetic description.

64 characters are not a text wall. This is a roleplay server, and players should provide an adequate description that describes their character from a physical standpoint. It's elementary to reach (and even pass) 64 characters just by listing common descriptors. Height, hair color, eye color, beard, shirt, pants, shoes, gait, voice, misc accessories, and other details.
Detailed Descriptions are for far more detail - that's where text walls come in.

I'll consider lowering the minimum requirement once genetic descriptions are in. But until then, denied.
