Default smilies + character limit

due to the spamming recently i think it would be a good idea to limit the amount of smilies you can use, and maybe a character limit, so people dont do this:

"fnjdsjdfn;dnfsnefnsd;gn;segs;"

or this:

":qqu e:"


just an example

Currently we have a very large characters limit of 50000, because some review articles is really large and we have to make sure that the whole article fit in the post without any trouble.

We do not put limit on smiles, but we put a limit of 30 images for a single post, this setting counts smiles. That means, the user cannot create a post containing thousand of gif images and caused the visitor browser hang.

ok thats fair enough on the image limit, but is there a way of setting a different character limit for different forums? so you can set high limit for review forums and then normal limit for normal discussion forums?
