This format check was a response to the other problem that we had when people created basically topics with empty topics. Now it requires you to provide at least 3 characters for a topic, where a character is a-z or A-Z.
topics with empty topics.
What is one of those?
Now it requires you to provide at least 3 characters for a topic, where a character is a-z or A-Z.
I don't understand this. Can you give an example of using 3 characters for a topic?
This is the title I want to post : - No one seen God. What is wrong with the characters of this title?
I am now getting this message. : >>> "One or more participants cannot be found" .
I am not posting this new topic to any individual. So why am i now also getting this silly message?

Some people discovered that if you put in just a period "." for the Topic name when creating a new topic it would result in errors when attempting to view that topic.
To counteract this, the admin has put a form of input validation, part of which requires that the Topic name be at least three alphabetic characters. It is likely the "-" part of your topic name is throwing an error.

Actually you found a minor bug. I will try to fix it as soon as possible.
`- No one seen God` is a perfectly fine topic from the technical point of view so it should be accepted.

I messed up the regex :/

It wasn't. I had to change the first word to use three characters instead of just two.
Has anyone seen God
Regex is hard.

It's my screw up, apparently my regex requires the topic to have at least one part consisting of least 5 alphabetic characters :/
