I don’t read them I just don’t have the focus.

Wish I could cause I’m sure some of them are good.

Yeah the long post are just as good as the short one because I read them maybe half the time every time. So keep posting long posts everybody!

I usually try to limit the length of my posts/replies, but they often come out long. I should know better, considering I have trouble reading long posts, due to my lack of focus. I see a huge amount of text, get overwhelmed by it, and often just skip over it, depending on just how long it is.

I have trouble reading long posts. It depends on how long they are, if they’re not too long, I try, but if they’re too long, I skim over the first half and then give up.

Often, posts wouldn’t be half as long if the poster would boil down what they’re trying to say.
… Although I’m guilty of making long posts myself.

I don’t like reading long posts, anything over half a screen in length and I usually won’t read it. Especially when it’s a wall of text with no paragraph breaks.

I think it helps to try and break long posts down into short paragraphs.

Some days I can read long posts but it’s like the information flies by through my head, usually I don’t have the focus to read long ones though.

I like writing long posts because I don’t expect people to read them, but some do anyways, but it feels good to get my thoughts onto paper. I kind of use this site as a blog… It’s a blog my crazy thoughts.

I don’t mind reading long posts but it’s when there over 2 screen lengths long is when I got a problem with them. That’s just too much to read especially if there are no paragraphs just one long wall of text… I’ve done it before several times but sometimes I just can’t finish extremely long posts.

Sometimes I read the longer posts, if they make sense. Problem is, a lot of times, they don’t make any sense. They are spouted by manic, nonsensical people.

Yes but i had to read a lot today and it was very taxing esp with a morning headache after driving 10miles in the dark, i just popped a couple of pain killers and managed to finish.

But on here i have to take it in small pieces at a time thats why its much easier if people break up their posts in to manageable more readable parts.

I’m weird, I have trouble sometimes maintaining attention on a very long-winded post and find myself skimming and probably missing things and then replying poorly.

I have no trouble when it comes to writing long posts, though, apart from my bad grammar occasionally.
