This is going to be a really hard thing for me to learn to do, but I just noticed a pinned thread about nettiquette in here and it said that people should avoid fluff-posting. I want to learn how to not do this. The forums I've been to in the past, I've done this. I want to contribute so it comes out as one or two liners or in very small succinct paragraphs.
Ill be honest and say this forum makes my brain hurt, but that means that it is beyond my "level" of what I am normally used to reading for posts. So if I ever get used to the posts around here, the depth and be able to follow the logic within them, it'll mean I've gone up a "level". A level in what? Reading comprehension. Maybe attention span, maybe argument structure. It might be able to help me with writing papers since I got a paper back this morning with pencil marks all over it saying that my paragraphs were too short and lacked cohesiveness.
Anyways, I hope to learn not to fluff post anymore, even though at times I feel like certain threads require more knowledge than what I have to respond to. Maybe it sounds like I am a bit intimidated by this forum. Maybe I *am* intimidated. It'll be a challenge for sure.
