Longer posts

Please people let's try to make longer posts I have seen some people just make a small reply like lol and it's sort of anoying besides you need to put effort on each post you make.

I know I have also done it but I'm getting better at it and if I can get better at ti you can too!

Well, that's a good idea.
But in fact, it's more that you have to make Interesting posts. And on that point I'm not sure you're doing so well Silver snow, because many of the topics you created are : like or hate Aleu (which we had to close), or polls which aren't really complete in the answers.
Sorry to criticize, but I have to, if I want to keep this forum in order.
I would also include Kodi, which often make short posts and overall, posts that does not bring the topics any further (useless, such as "great job", "I like it"), and without ponctuations. I also make short posts, although not every time. But Kodi, you never write more than one sentence. Please make efforts, I hate having to repeat it but it's not a chat here.
Finally, I would have to criticize people who are using big signatures or avatars, which make the forum load longer, and look horrible (there is more pictures than text!), and I can't accept animations too (same reasons, and they quickly become annoying)
From now on, I will keep watching for all that, and will send everyone PM messages to remind you if you're reaching the limits.

Yeah I know I have to start making better posts but I'm improving so I just wanna start making better posts and if it helps just let people know that post should be at least more than 6 words,

There's also another thing. Stop writing in SMS language. We don't write "great job Jenna" but "You're doing a great job, Jenna!". By doing that, you're not able to make several sentences in the messages, because you don't use any ponctuation and it's hard to read. You are at least two here to do that (lex and kodi), and I don't appreciate that. I would understand if you didn't have english for native language, but it's not your case.

ok then steet I have takein that into note. and I'm very sorry about that.

Ok then, I will stop using the SMS language, just a little hard when I'm still taking ESL, and I willtry to make longer and better posts.
