Average words per post in this ADD forum is significantly higher than most forums I've been part of.
Pretty funny. You guys have great communication skills and must have "amazingly dexterous digits" (ADD) fingers.... !!!
:D

Very interesting and true.
It's because we start talking about one thing and then think of millions of examples and those examples take us off on all kinds of tangents...

I have seen threads on other boards that when posts are too long ADDers have a hard time following and move on to the next. Let me tell you I do not have ADD but do the same for really long posts. I do however if it is a serious post where someone is really in need I do read it more closely to help.

I should add I keep mine shorter for a reason.

I've been here two days and have already noticed the same thing. There are some crazily long, complex posts on these boards.
I think the high percentage of posters on amphetamines has something to do with it.

My poor s/o has had to suffer through probably hundreds of 1,000 to 5,000 word emails from me. In each case, I sat down to just write a line or two.
I had no idea that could be a symptom of something. Wow.

i find it funny how people who have such short attention spans write such long posts and have others ( in the same boat) read them through... i guess it all depends on if your really into the post or not.
can i make another point? for all the people who think add is attached to intelligence, there are so many incredibly long AND intelligent posts on this forum!!! i am increasingly refreshed to read well thought out, written posts with proper grammar... by very smart individuals..
in other words....
IN YOUR FACE!!!!
haha, just kidding (sorta!)

LOL...you're hillarious gafter! I know I tend to be quite verbose...and for that, my dear friends at the ADD Forums, I apoligize. But I think that people here really take an interests in other's plights and feel a genuine, altruistic willingess to help them. Which is what keeps me coming back for more.
You guys are the best!

I don't know where you usually hang out, but this place doesn't seem to have significantly longer posts than I'm used to seeing.
