If they have a point to be made, sure. But..... it would be really REALLY nice if people with long posts would use paragraphs. One long drawn out paragraph is difficult for me to read, and because of that I usually don't.

As my grad advisor said: be specific, not prolific.

I get annoyed with people who post extremely long-winded thoughts. It seems self-indulgent and narcissistic IMHO.

I like shorter to the point posts, but, a good story is not dependant on length and is always worth reading.

Appropriate length depends on content for me. If something is long simply for the sake of being long, then I'm not going to care for it, or even read the whole thing. Some things need the length to convey the entire story.

I think I am entering an ADHD phase. Or is it that life is getting faster and faster that I cannot spend too much time on one topic?

If someone’s sufficiently wound up, I’ll respect their desire to share … but sometime’s there’s a limit..

I don't think longer posts are better. But I am one of the worst offenders, because I want to be more precise than concise. ...at least, that's my claimed excuse. I also won't go near Twitter. Guess why.

Short and sweet works best for me.
My eyes start to bug trying to read a wall of text.

I suppose it depends on how tall I'm trying to make the fence.

Although I am one who appreciates economy of word and likes to be succinct in my own posts, I am always interested (okay, most of the time) in what others have to say and it doesn't matter much how they have to say it. Long. Short. In between. It's all fine.

My comments get long. I probably bore the hell out of people...lol.

A forum is better gor short blocks
of text, given how they are laid out. For long treatises, I recommend blogging.

I think it depends on the subject matter. Some posts make several points that could easily be made into separate posts, while others are intricate and nuanced and make a bigger point with several supporting facets.

My attention span isn't long. So I tend to like shorter posts. Even on FB. I'm hardly on there anymore. I spend more time here, at work, or at the gym.

Long posts don't matter to me as long as what I'm reading is interesting.
