Do you read the long ones?

I avoid long posts when I am tired at the end of the day.. I keep them for a part of the day when I am fresher and open to reading.. I take the long and short in my stride as I eventually get to them all.

Some of us are not very good in expressing things in short posts. Most of my posts qualify as medium sized ones. But comments are indeed much too long. I need to work on that so that I can express briefly without causing misunderstandings. And I do read long ones, especially if they are written by somebody who is from English speaking countries. I also want to improve my English. :)

It all depends on whether I find it interesting or not. Long ones can definitely be interesting. Not many people are clever enough to make a very short one interesting. I do tend to read more of the somewhere in between length ones.

It doesn't matter to me as long as it holds my interest. A short one - 'I went to the shop' sort of thing can be really boring.

Depends - if a longer item is engaging, I don't mind. There's a lot for the quickfire post though...

It doesn't really matter matter to me if the person is making sense. I've rambled on posts elsewhere in the past, so I shouldn't mind reading some of the same once in a while.

If you are asking me about my choice, I would prefer to read a shorter post than a longer post. Many users show their skills in conveying their point in few lines, while others keep on explaining everything. In my view our concentration level gets affected if it is a long post and sometimes, we may lose the crux of the post. Nonetheless, there are some users who are very good writers and narrate a post in such a lucid manner that you feel like reading it till you reach at the end of the post.

Depends on the topic in question and the mood I'm in. Also, some people are able to spin a topic to keep me interested. And some days, the topic in question could be the greatest thing in the world, but when I'm not in the mood to read it. Long posts can be pretty good and pretty interesting, but there is something to be said about getting to the point. Really does depend on the day.

It really depends on the mood I am in and what I am interested in at the moment. I don't feel compelled to read for any reason but rely completely on the latter and luck to find it! This includes comments in a thread. For example, I only read the post so far. Have a great day.

Like what they say, it's not the length, it's how you use it.

No, I do not like to read the posts that are going and going.

I love the short ones but when i am in good mood i go for all. However we got some long posts that are really cool and when you start to read you just one to go on and on until the end

If they are interesting, informative, and have a lot to offer I don't mind reading them. I get caught up in writing longer posts because I want to be helpful and supply a lot of information. Maybe that's why a lot of my posts aren't read because people like short ones less than 10 sentences. I guess I'll need to keep mine very short but at times it's hard.

Hey Hi! @Freelanzer , Well I don't actually considering anything , if it is informative , I prefer but I do read everything.

I really admire those who have the patience to read through long posts. I do not belong to that category although there could be exceptions.

@Freelanzer,Frankly speaking,I like reading short discussions.I lack time,you know.Lack of time does not allow me to get indulged in long details.

I don't mind long posts if they are interesting but usually I prefer a shorter one

I prefer short or medium. Unless it's a subject that's right in my wheelhouse (or one of them, as I have too many interests), I have a hard time reading more than maybe four paragraphs.

I prefer the short ones, but every once in a while, a longer one will keep my interest til the end.

I like many long posts. If they are interesting I enjoy them
