Apolagies, I did not know which category to post this in.

Greetings.
Today I am going to talk about a question that some of you may be wondering.

Are Vast Long post better than short, Simple posts?

In my opinion, It depends what post. Wisdom posts are expected to be
long, With lots of detail and effort put in, And It is the same with
announcement posts and news posts. But just questions, Opinions and
Giving a little bit of help are not exactly expected to be very long.

Most people (including me) Think long posts are far more better, But there
are other opinions aswell. I love writing long posts, But I don't necessarily like
reading them. Sometimes they are boring, sometimes they are fun,
But take a very long time to read. If you want people like me to read
your posts properly, Honestly I recommend doing medium sized posts, Posts that
have not much imformation in, But A decent amount. If you want people to be
amazed by your posts, and think ''They put alot of effort in, Wow'' It
is probably best, To make a lovely long post.
Both are great, But which do I prefer?

It depends for me. Reading, a long post, I really don't like, But writing one I do.
I like typing fast and hearing the keys click, But my eyes go all funny and
keep reading the same lines over and over again while reading posts.
Short posts are lovely, As they say, Short and sweet, But there is actually
nothing wrong with making long posts. Alot of people enjoy long, Exciting posts,
But some find them boring and prefer short posts. It varies on the type
of opinion someone has. Don't be offended if somebody thinks your post is
to long; Take it as a tip. Maybe a bit shorter next time, Trying to still include
info, But not as detailed? Its the same with short posts; Make it
a bit longer next time, And trying add the information needed.

Its like films and books. We all have different opinions, and that is
a good thing. Things like ''A bit longer next time'' Or ''I struggled to read this''
Should just be taken as a compliment and tip to your post.
So don't freak out and say they are being mean; Dont get concerned
that somebody doesn't like your post, Just deal with it and
have gratitude for that user, For giving you a tip for next time you write a post!

Opinions and tips can be put in the comments, I appreciate it!

Until next time,

-Becky

Not necessarily since long posts could just be repeating the same thing over and over, whereas short posts could just explain what they want to say right away and get straight to the point.

I love reading long posts, but enjoy posting short ones. I think they're both equally important though. Amazing post, I've never thought of this before!

It is our choices that show what we truly are far more than our abilities.

Quality is much more important than quantity, you can find a short and good post, sometimes people make long posts just to say "it's long", and they keep talking the same thing... but on wisdom posts, you nee detail, which means it will be long, but there's no concept "Longer posts are ALWAYS more detailed".
And good posts, good topic to be debated. Also, I think this should be on the "Debates" category!
