Seriously. I don't recall noticing it here but on the other boards there are fed posts that drag on and on and on. How can you expect someone to read your fed when one post takes 15 minutes to get through? Good God man, get to the point!!!

Keep your paragraphs to about three sentences

My results were really long when I was writing out whole interviews. Honestly, I didn't give a fuck if they were long. I was having fun at the time.
I don't care about length. It's format. You can write a novel, just do it in a nice format so I can jump through it, see the matches and get a gist of what went on.

I try to keep things short and sweet when needed, but at time certain matches or angles require some more of a write-up.

It's too long so I decided to stop posting it. Who's fed did you read that resulted in you creating this thread?

I most often view "most recent posts" on my iPhone, and I seriously had to flick down 25 times to get past a fed post. My reliance on most recent posts is laziness on my part but long fed posts and people posting tons of bootlegs or other info that eat up all the posts make me miss stuff because I don't care to search for it. On that note, what happen to expanding most recents to 25??

It's just hard for me to get excited about a bunch of characters I have never heard of. Same goes for LOW feds with bootlegs. If I don't have the game card and don't know what it looks like, I don't care what that wrestler does in people's feds.

I think long results are fine as long as the story is compelling.

I think there's a fair number of people who like long fed posts.... I mostly agree with Havoc, though.
While some of the people who do really long write ups are really good, my time for reading is often not up for it.
As far as bootlegs go, it's rarely an issue in Legends feds, since I have a vague idea of most guys out there... but I agree with CoTG bootlegs... UNLESS the person quickly fleshes them out. When it's just a name, it's pretty uninteresting.
