Hi sophiesmom,

Nothing AT ALL wrong with being concise!!!
And I certainly wouldn't say you're overly concise- if there is such a thing!! And I definitely don't think you come across as rude!!
People express themselves all sorts of different ways, and I certainly aren't going to be judging people negatively on being very/a little/not at all concise.............expression is expression and expression is good.
If people express themselves differently than others, that doesn't need to make them wrong, just different

It might mean that you get more people who express themselves concisely just the same as you do answering your threads, because they might relate better..........meaning depending on the time you're putting up threads, depending on the types of people online at the time, you might get less replies than some people putting up differently written threads, but then at other times you may well get more replies than other people putting up differently written threads.

But if it's any consultation about whether people might be disliking you because they haven't answered your threads...........of the threads I've read and not replied to, that's never, ever been because I dislike the person...........I've had no reason to dislike anyone..........it will be more because I can't think of anything that might help, or because I know people can/will reply much better than I could, because it's hard to "put myself in their place"..........whatever, but definitely not because I dislike them. And I'm sure that would be true for plenty of others on here too

But to reiterate sophiesmom , I, for one, have never, ever seen you as in any way as unlikable
