Would you want 1 full paragraph of pure awesome kick you in the face hardcoreness, or perhaps a full page of keeps me entertained, but could probably be written a bit better? That's my entire argument right that. Personal, 1 paragraph isn't really shit, even if it's the uberest peice of writing ever.

All in all, I'd rather read 5-10 paragraphs of sweet writing, that could use some better work rather than 1 paragraph of pwnage.

That?s oversimplification of the issue I believe. One paragraph is to small to be even convinced its writing. Any DAY give me an short thread that has an original story that?s not just ?I need to get stronger let me fight some shit!? and is well written then some tome that?s tens of thousands of words of above average ?I?m a warrior?fight fight fight.?

I think ?flow? has nothing to do with length. I?ve never read short posts and thought ?wow if it were only longer?. If I begin reading a thread and I see the posts are each 10,000 words it turns me off right at the beginning.
