When people write answers to your question (or any question) that are like 14 paragraphs long! Come on, people! My attention span lasts for like 2-3 paragraphs, maximum.

A summary is better.

Don't you just hate it when people have such short attention spans, they can't take the time to read a well thought out answer?
I am sorry your attenrtion span is so short.
Maybe some Ritalin would help.

I don't mind that as much as the questions that are 14 paragraphs long.

You're very ungrateful. Someone is taking the time to truly think about and answer your question. I really hate it when people complain. If you want a short answer, then put on your question that you want a short answer or don't ask anything at all. People like you make me so angry.

Sometimes...if the information is helpful and I am interested in it then it's fine, but otherwise it's way too long- I hate especially when they keep going on and on and on, and repeat the same thing over and over again and sometimes even go way off of the subject.

Depends on what the question is and whether or not they have the consideration to break it up so you can rest your eyes and not lose your place in it.
Provided it's original material or a cogent digest thereof and not some copy paste ideological schpiel.

I prefer longer answers. If someone is going to tell me what I should do or give their opinion I want to know why they came to that conclussion. I'm one of those people that want evidence as well as an answer.

Some questions require more extensive answers, you should be flattered when that happens, it usually means they took the time to think about your question. I'll stop now because I don't want to bore you.

And also, the short answers is more proper to be the best answer, because the long answers doers usually just do the copy-paste.

Yes, I hate that, too! I like to keep it short, sweet & concise & appreciate when others do the same. Woo-hoo!

well, if it is a question i am serious about and if I put in a lot of effort, i actually APPRECIATE a long thoughtful response, as long as it has a point.
but if it is unnecessary babbling, then yes, i agree.
