lately i have seen posts on here get longer and longer. does anyone read long posts all the way through? i tend to skim them till my eyes glaze over. i think if you want someone to read your post, keep it short and to the point. I could not agree more. We tend to want to say everything at once, when we should be listening more. ....or reading |

You KNOW the type." Yes, we all know the type. It's the type that can't type. |

Bummer i tend to write to much as my brain wanders and i add more stuff. but i will read long posts if. 1.. the topic interests me. 2.. If it is someone whose posts always amuse me.. Lex is one of them. 3..If I am bored. 4. if it is someone I have seen on other posts and want to know more about who they are, Hmmm I wont put anymore reasons as this is getting longer.. Sorry about that.. I wonder how many peole didnt bother to read this one.. And i wonder what everyone classes as a long post. Please allow me to assure you: everybody read your post. I don't suppose it will come as news to you, but a well-built, busty blonde will get her every post read letter-by-letter and all bullsy-ballsy guys will respond to that. They say, even research supports it, that females are more verbally oriented thinkers and males, more spacially oriented. I say that's bullocks. I say that that illusion is created by all good looking women being listened to by everyone, so they keep on talking, for the sheer joy of being the centre of attention. (I don't blame them, I enjoy being there too. It's not a "sin" in and by itself.) So women talk because they have positive reinforcement. Look at the guys: One line responses. Two line responses. If there are more than five lines, the guys who write them get to blow up in a trollic rage, and leave the forums soon -- they are not emotionally stable. There are two forums whose posts are clear exceptions from what I feel rules the length of posts. The two excepted forums are the Religion and the Science/Philosophy forums. There everyone lets their tongue loose. Bummer thought it was my smartness |

I hate long posts. The only time I use them is when people don't seem to be getting what I'm saying in the short posts.
Sometimes I'll read the first sentence of each paragraph to get the jest of what's being said. Brevity is the soul of wit. |
