If you've spent a lot of time of the internet you have seen these
people. They'll take ten or fifteen paragraphs to make a one
paragraph point. Usually these twerps want to make a point to
include insignificant or irrelevant details that have only marginal
bearing on the topic at hand. There are times when you need to
include extra details to clarify something, just as long as those
details are pertinent to what you writing about.
You'll see them posting blogs or posting on forums. Usually they
are the ones that you tend to skim over what they posted in the
faint (read: infinitesimal) hope that somewhere in their meandering
text are the few pieces of information you are looking for. More
often than not you have to wade through their pointless tripe only
to discover that they haven't got a fucking clue as to what they are
talking about.
As a rule, I try to be concise in what I post on the internet. I
learned from long experience and lots of wading through crap
that no one wants to read fifteen pointless paragraphs of bullshit
when all they need is one paragraph that gives them the facts.
