Broken return key?


Didn't succeed in making the comment take a shorter vertical space. You don't want to see me using the return key.


Line breaks aren't to make it shorter, it's to break it up so the reader can keep track of where he is in the reading. I must have reread certain lines 4 or 5 times before I actually got to the next line, even using text selection as a bookmark.


I see, sorry for that, Is too late to edit now, but I will keep that in mind.

I think you mean that the lack of line breaks is not to make the comment shorter in vertical space.

More line breaks, or at least one single line break, please, I understand you now, for readability and politeness towards other peoples eyes, would actually take more vertical space.

But I got it, better use line breaks next time. Or don't make long comments anymore, ever.

At least not in winter time.

Or if it is winter, only on weekends.

No, better just abstain from it.

:edit Now that you say it, the line breaks don't show in the comment! go to google -->Oh I need two blank lines! Dang. Ok!

Still something wrong. better give up the Internet, it's healthier overall.
