lol at least you're honest

[madzonie]

If it is broken into paragraphs, and depending on the topic...usually. I've been know to write some long ones myself.

[faeriemoon]

Generally not. If it lacks paragraphs and punctuation, definitely not. If I start to read and find it to be one of those stream-of-consiousness posts, I stop.

Don't have time to decipher someone's nonsense.

I don't read long threads either.

Good grief, no...lol Lately, some people have been writing little novels. They must work on them for days and days...lol I don't have time for that.

I agree. And sometimes they sound so fictional.

[Peaches McPhee]

Rarely.

If the poster does not use paragraphs: never.

[gidgetgh]

You guys must be talking about the thread I started! It's a long one- LOL.

[Krimpette]

I mostly just skim over the long posts. If subsequent posts refer to something mentioned in a lengthy post, then I might go back and read that post more thoroughly. I try to keep my posts brief.
