My eyes are spinning with trying to read some of the long long long unbroken posts on various threads.

And the word that matters there is unbroken - there's nothing wrong with writing at length, if you've got something to say. But the way this medium works, you have to break it up into short paragraphs if you want to be legible.

I know at school they tell you that a new paragraph only comes when you have a new point. Since there are some points that take quite a long time, that implies some pretty long paragraphs.

But if you do that here, it just turns into a mighty blur, and you get skipped past and ignored. Or people read you and start feeling vengeful towards you without maybe realizing why.

And all it needs to make a paragraph break is to stick in a {P} or a {BR}{BR} (except that you put a < instead of a { and a > instead of a >) And I put that in, just in case sometimes it's people who didn't know that...
