[@RedHat] Probably find that it depends on what section the post is in and what the expectations are. There is nothing worse than starting an advanced RP where there is an emphasis on [i]length and depth[/i], and yet some people only post up a paragraph that barely makes 500 characters.

Personally, I hate free and short posts. I view them as creatively limiting, a lack of effort and limited in how someone can respond. Like I said above, there is nothing worse in my opinion than spending hours writing up a long detailed post for the person your trying to interact with to just reply with, "I am well, how are you?"—a post that could have been typed in a chat server message.
