A Plea For Long Postings

[BlueToffee]

Some people on here make quite long postings, and need to to get their question/point across.

All I would ask is, if your posting is going to be long, would you please try and put them in paragraph form, with spaces between.

They would be so much easier to read.

Thank you.

I think those who use a lot of full stops should be shot........

BANG!!

[stewey]

And who'll be doing the shooting, shoota?

I agree, those posts would be easier to read. But I reiterate, if someone doesn't know how to use paragraphs, or even use spaces, to make a more readable sentence, then they're not suddenly going to be able to just because you or anyone else asks them to.
If you could, you would. If you don't, it's generally because you can't.
If you had been involved in adult literacy then you would maybe understand and have a little more sympathy.

Once, when I was in a dash to get to work, one of my tires got puctuated and I came to a full stop...Ok, I'll leave.

I hope you meant commas :)

Commas and full stops usually come when a breath would have been taken in a spoken piece.

It amazes me how many people don't use them.

Go to the pub Stewey..........lol

Soonly, shoota, soonly. Talking about punctuation, why do a lot of people on this site use slashes instead of quotation marks to indicate that they are quoting someone?

No idea.........

[gness]

I use lots of full stops because I breath heavily...sometimes...and I put kisses because I live in hope....xx

Sorry, shoota, I'm one of those ABers that use too many ellipses...

Will try to stop...

Can't promise anything...

Outlook not good...

[stewey]

Shoota, you bad boy; you used a triple ellipsis.

[BlueToffee]

Spaces between paragraphs, that's all I'm asking for, just to make long postings easier to read.

[stewey]

All joking aside, BlueToffee, I think I see what you mean. You would like a long post formatted in sort of a bullet form style. Is this correct?

[wolf63]

A while back there was such a post. It was impossible to read but I thought that I could give information. I copied it all to word and sorted out the paragraphs. It took ages and by the time that I got back to AB they had been suspended.

:-(

[BlueToffee]

Exactly stewey, got it in one.
