Yeah, many people post in a way they want others to post which can be difficult if the styles of posting are different.In post 97, Grendel wrote:Many players don't post with the intention of making an easier reading experience, they mainly communicate info in a way they'd like to hear it.

Are you going to talk more about contrasting posting styles and how they affect the game state?
I'm interested in your perception of joke posting, and how that helps you develop reads vs serous posting.
I don't know about making topic for contrasting posting styles, i think that might be more of "how to deal with other styles appropriately?" I do expect to cover word choice as a topic.
I think joke posting is a good thing overall, especially to alleviate any tension exists in a game, because trust me tension will build in a game. Just like it can build in any interaction you have in real life, and making a joke post can alleviate and call to attention that tension and make it so that its dealt with without a "blow up", I often find myself joke posting a great deal of the time, and half of it is to continue making the game fun for myself to alleviate any tension building in me and other half is for players to enjoy the game besides myself. Of course some think I do it too much but thats another thing.
