^^ I don't see any extra paragraphs here.

Well, I don't mean EXTRA paragraphs, just a necesary amount. Not one paragraph the length of The Lord of the Rings!

I MEAN, COME ON PEOPLE!

This should be closed because it makes no sense and it has nothing to do with lucid




dreaming!

funny.

just trying to make life esier for people...

Forget extra

paragraphs.

Let's just use decent grammar and punctuation.

i are agreeing with




raylin "/

I wouldn't call this a topic!

I think we need to learn capitals first, MIRITE?

NOT EXTRA PARAGRAPHS. Just a normal amount. It's hard to read a solid collumn of words that goes from the top of the screen to the bottom.

I totally support your point of view. It is much more entertaining to read a post that has multiple distinct paragraphs. Especially if the post is extra long. I get totally bored with posts with one single paragraph 200 lines long. They are, many times, posts that go on and on about multiple different things in one long block; very annoying.

A good practice is to create a new paragraph when the text no longer follow the thoughts previously written. It gives a chance for the reader to stop and breathe. Maybe, even, get up and get a cup of coffee and come back to finish reading the post without having to hunt down where you stopped reading.

Another annoyance I have noticed is that (some) people do not seem to want to respect the forum guidelines about posting. My pet peeve are the spelling mistakes (use a separate editor with a spell checker to write then paste your post) and the abbreviations using letters and numbers (I know, it’s surprising coming from someone with such a name). I know that, for some, spelling is not important, only the message is… But if the message is left unread because of our unwillingness to read it (because we get fed up by unreadable content) then you may miss out on good feedback.

So, with this post, I have illustrated how to split up your text in multiple-easily-readable paragraphs that are pleasant to absorb. It is hard to make the point dreamerer was trying to make without being verbose about it. I hope you get the point and don’t turn this into a "who can post the most unreadable post" thread (Oops maybe I should not have said that).

Cheers!

THANK YOU!

You're welcome!
