Quote:"a prolix lecturer telling you more than you want to know"
That's stupid. That could include a fear of what is being told and hence is a form of censorship. A telegram could now be defined as prolix if it contained bad news.

Don't just assert it. Take the offending post apart then and show me the "excess". I'm a willing learner.

Another itsy-bitsy girl's school assertion. You just can't stop yourself can you? It's like an incurable disease.
Enough will have been said when you provide the evidence which you can't. It is meaningless without that-can't you see it? Is it really beyond your understanding. I can hardly believe it coming from grown men.
You grant me permission, unless you only fight people who have their hands tied behind their back, to say your post is bullshit. Then print out the dictionary on bullshit and then say "nuff said". What a pathetic position to be in. And thinking it clever as well. Sheesh. It's infantile.
Prolix has nothing to do with lack of brevity. What is being said is what matters. And there is such a thing as style which can be complained about subjectively but the effort to find one cannot be denied unless you are arguing for grunting.
Show me where I ought to have economised in words. It should be easy enough if you are correct.
In the meantime I'm watching your team play the Italians which is quite funny really. Some of your tackles seem to make an assumption that you make your own rules up and that nobody is watching.
