Simply because a lot of users think that posting long topics makes it highly more likely for them to receive merits

It is true and such posters intentionally do it to hide their non sense posts. Just write as lengthy as possible and assume their posts contain something interesting. In fact, no quality on such posts.

If anything, it makes me far less likely to give merits. Just freakin get to the point without all the unnecessary fluff.

I can not disagree with you.

When trying to write quality posts, a lot of people act as though they're writing a book report for school: putting facts that we already know into their own words. Nobody wants to read that, and you will not get merit for it. Moreover, the length of your post and the quality of your English are only minor factors. In trying to write a quality post worthy of merit, you should offer new ideas, personal experiences, or perspectives that other forum users will actually find new and interesting.
