Okay do not yell a me, I do not like too' lo g oes either but, I see people answering 'one line posts here that do not tell us a blinking darned tthing. How can you answer whenthere is othing to give an opinion on? I really do not get it. Would not asking the user to explain what she neans be both beneficial' to her and to us readers ? Newbies often need a bit of help so lets gilve \hat help to them. One original p ost and graphic by P Hatley copyrighted 2017

I have enjoyed some long posts....there has to be a point...some of those long posts...go on and on and never say anything. Again, most one line posts, I ignore...but every now and again,...there is a post that only requires one line.

@Morleyhunt Your answer reminds me of a couple of poems that I noted in a contest. Their five page long poem got second place while my fifteen lines long poem got honorable mention. I couldn't and can't figure the why of it. One of life's mysteries.

The discussion has to have some drive; spark to it before I notice it much, whatever length is there in front of me.

I prefer medium length posts with an interesting point of view or facts.
