Some would consider brevity being respectful of the readers’ time. I see no problem with it as long it adequately expresses the poster’s intention.

Wow.

 

[yegbert]

Just don’t read anything that’s too long, they may wither.

I have a sister that can't write just a single sentence. She has to do the english composition method
of Title , introductory, explanation, theory, observation, conclusion, ending.. or the like.

Cool story

I’ve found that many times, the longer the post, the less it actually says. People like to see their shining brilliance lighting up the internet like a super nova.

I love EH’s work but I don’t understand the wooly sweater madness. Have you ever been to Key West?

I write all day as my full-time gig, and being brief and concise is a skill. Less is more.

Righto. Long ago I was a Development Editor working on book manuscripts. Being concise is difficult for most authors. Whatever it is, *just say it* and leave out everything else.

Write like Jimmie Vaughan plays.

TL;DR LOL BRB

"Reactions" per post ratio is what works for me. Brevity is also good except when you get into a discussion on how the right tone wood paired with the optimal pickguard colour adds colour to melodic solos played on light gauge strings in the key of F#min through a vintage solid state amp.

 

[BigDaddyLH]

yup
