Lol, May I preface by saying I must've gotten wiped for inactivity. This is not my first post, just my first one in maybe a year. I come from the school of Paranoia-Live.net, which stresses heavily that excessive exposition prevents other people from reacting in reasonable realtime to you. Unless it's all backstory (IMHO) this isn't a prose contest, it's a game, and more technically an exercise in interactive fiction. A 15,000 word post prevents believable interaction. A few well-written paragraphs, allowing at all times for a pause between major events is more conducive to the game, I believe. Does anyone else share this opinion? If so, why? If not, why not?
