    Well, do you like to write extremely, long, paragraphs for your posts?
    Does it depend on the section? Or do you just like your post count to go up if it is a really long post?
     
    I don't have the "SHUT UP!" emblem for nothing. XD; I love typing walls of text in most posts, conversation-wise only to certain people who I know I can enjoy a deep and meaningful conversation with; for instance, I do this on a daily basis with my pair. He and I can type wall after wall after wall and it's really captivating when you're very taken in by a conversation.
     
    Hardly. Only time I'll ever tl;dr is when I'm helping a friend with something or stating something I believe in.
     
    I only write walls of text when I'm in a rant mood or when someone provokes me with an interesting topic. Most of the time, I post in OVP, and there aren't many threads that would incite discussion here. If there is a topic which I would want to type a wall of text on, then I would do so merrily. But most of the time, I write a few lines worth of text.
     
    Sometimes I make long posts, usually because I analyze things in the Pokémon General section. Other times, I like to make readable posts. I fluctuate, I suppose.

    When I'm in a ranting mood, though, I don't stop typing. Especially considering that I like to ramble and I do so very well. XD But it's not too often I make tl;dr (too lazy; didn't read) posts. Just sometimes.​
     
    I used to be the King of TL;DR on PC, seriously. :( I was known for my ridiculously long posts almost anywhere I posted. (If it was less than two paragraphs, it was a short post.)

    Now? I know how freaking annoying it is to read so many words and I try to be more concise. If I can't get my point across in a decently sized post, I won't bother sending the reply.
     
    I normally don't write long posts. I have written a few, but it was needed for me to get my point across. I do like to tl;dr when it comes to IMs, though.
     
    My posts are usually one or two liners, unless I do have a lot of things to do, then I might even hit 5 lines.

    So yeah, not a tl;dr person XD
     
    I'm not usually a tl;dr person, except in sections where it warrants it, like reviewing a fanfiction, website, or in writing. :P
     
    They should make a emblem for the shortest text then I would get that one for sure
    But I really don't like typing so much for one simple question, this isn't my AP English class so why put so much effort onto a post for?


    :t354:TG
     
    I dint think I have written too many terribly long posts here. i think when I want to and I feel like there whould be a wall of text when there isnt I just give up.
     
    The only thing worse than reading tl;dr is actually writing one.

    So yeah, I'm too lazy to type tl;drs, Many of you should know that.
     
    No, it's not that I don't like writing them but I never can find the emphasis to do so. I only ever tl;dr when I'm angry (usually it's nonsensical then) or when I'm trying to comfort someone, I've only made a few tl;drs on PC that were not related to any of the above. But I do like the outcome of it, knowing that I've made a decent contribution instead of a short one-liner. Not that theres anything wrong with those. XD
     
    I tl;dr when I'm soapboxing which happens a lot sometimes.

    otherwise it's nice to be brief. Actually I feel the 25-character-limit constrains me more often than not (though I'm not stupid enough to try and get around it).
     
    Do I think I make tl;dr posts? No. Do my friends tell me that I do? Always. I find that there has to be one person that will read a detailed post of mine. I like to be able to share as many things as I can in a post. To me, it's almost like how a child learns from their older sibling's mistakes. In posting a longer post, my goal is to share my experiences (good or bad) to everyone in hopes of at least one person being effected by it. Even something as simple as a story of how I began to love strawberries might make someone say "Hey, that's a cool story. Maybe if I try it again I'll like it too!" Posting for me is like gathering around the campfire and telling stories. The thread is the first and we're the people sitting around it. If you're going to tell your story, don't you want it to be the best that I can be?

    It also helps that I type in size one. Nothing looks as long as it is. :ppp
