What is [i]unnecessarily[/i] long?
[/quote]

By unnecessary I mean things like fluffing things up, which is something I see a lot. For example, there have been cases where I've seen people take from two sentences to an entire paragraph to describe a single movement in a fight scene, a situation perfect for short and to-the-point writing. Another example would be two philosophers debating, a post I'd understand if it was long due to its very nature, but again I've seen cases where the two characters discuss in such a manner that a post that'd easily and comfortably fall around 1.000-1.200 words ends up being 3.000 words long.

Bleh, I realize my general dislike of long posts is irrational and not courteous (discourteous?), but it's just one of those quirks of mine that persist.

It's funny, I've realized where my dislike of long posts comes from now.  There was once a situation when a player wrote 20.000 words, I kid you not, of their character in an empty room. Ever since that day, I find it hard to read long posts here. Maybe this marks the start of my rehabilitation? XD
