Why is everyone so terrified of rambling in a post? Has there been some rule established that there's a limit to the number of sentences a person can post?

It really annoys me to see people sharing their pain and feeling ashamed of doing so or fearful of judgement. Who is making them feel this way?

Most of the time I see people apologizing after a few sentences, which seems ridiculous to me.

If someone else only wants to read three sentences and that's the limit, too bad for them! Let them stop reading and miss out on one of the best parts of the board. Let them be selfish and judgemental. They can be alone with their three sentence limit. But that shouldn't be imposed in others through social pressure on this board.

There are those of us who are interested in hearing what others have to say and our problems are complicated and require background so that people can give informed responses.

Sometimes I wonder if the people apologizing for rambling are doing so because they themselves have judged others for doing so in the past. If that's the case why is it OK for you to ramble in this instance but not others?

I say ramble away, but please hit return and break up your paragraphs with white space so they are easy to read!

I always ramble by these standards and though very few people ever answer, dozens read.
