RE: Writing Short Meaningful Posts... Works for Some, not so much for Me
I tend to be more like you I think. When I attempt a short answer, for example, I always feel like I'm leaving out something pertinent. That my response will be misunderstood unless I clarify why I said what I did. There definitely is a skill in choosing just the right words to convey a message briefly and accurately.
A lot of times (with replies) I feel like I am being snippy or flip if I don't provide some context. I guess I am also a "survivor" of message boards where so much trolling and flaming is the result of someone giving a quick answer without explaining where they are coming from.
