Yes, you can do that using wpForo hooks. Put this code in your current active WordPress theme functions.php file. You can change the length too. I set it 100 for you.

function wpforo_custom_notification_text_length( $length ){

}

add_filter('wpforo_notification_description_length', 'wpforo_custom_notification_text_length', 10);
