I feel the same way. Only if I have an interest in the OP will I read a long post, and even then... rarely.

tl;dr

depends on the topic, depends on my mood.

Varies. If it's badly punctuated and written like a raving loonie, I lose interest quickly. On the other hand, topics that consist of a title and 'Do you liek pie?' are something I also abhor. Especially if the topics in question are dime-a-dozen-per-day topics generated by someone who has this odd understanding that higher post count equals to high esteem in the community.

Depends entirely upon the content and grammar of said post.

If there are no paragraphs and it's a stream-of-consciousness block of text, then generally I won't read it. But if it's properly structured and well-written and interesting, then I will.

I shall get drunk and write a post, see what happens.

And this, grammar and structure is important

I like long posts about interesting topics if they're well-written. Otherwise, a Wall of Text will be skimmed for the tl;dr line.
