I read those who use ellipses. The one person I think of who does it usually has very worthwhile things to say.

I wouldn't know about the poster you have in mind. There was a poster at one time who prattled on about her grandson and did so using the pesky ellipses. I took a genuine dislike of her; can't say if it was the prattle or the ellipses.


I don't remember that one. I remember a gal who talked a lot about her grandson but don't remember ellipses.

I always think posters who use ellipses instead of punctuation, don't know how to punctuate. I don't read those because I doubt anything they have to say is worth reading.

Re: Do you read LONGGGG posts??

I've never seen ellipses as something to get worked up over.
