I generally read a whole post, but writing skills definitely matter. Make your points, be concise, and make it worthwhile reading.

Sure, attention spans are shrinking. Part of that is due to the firehose deluge of content we're exposed to daily.

I usually read the whole post unless it's just not my thing. Regardless, there are often only specific points in the post I wish to address.

I know. It seems to me that people only read the first part of the first paragraph. I wonder if attention spans are getting shorter.

Yes, in my experience, the NPCs only read the first sentence or two, and once they realize you disagree with them, they shoot back some petty insult.

Fit what you need to say into the headline. Most people don't read more than that. But keep posting! We need you! :D

well researched and well written it capture my attention

do you have something to share of value?

or just seeking attention. click bait has no payoff..

do your posts have a point? a payoff? a reason to respond?
