Short & Succinct or Maximum Verbosity Posts

Some posts read like war and peace.  I know some of the topics are pretty complex, but think some PHd Thesis have been shorter.  & don't get me wrong - I have had some longer posts.  Seems like the longer posts don't get as many responses as the shorter ones.

Anyone else ever try for some white space and as short a post as possible?  I have been thinking of potentially breaking my posts into more posts but shorter.

"Seems like the longer posts don't get as many responses as the shorter ones."

I'm pretty sure longer posts aren't read as often or as thoroughly as shorter posts.  Shorter paragraphs help.  Avoid "wall of text."  Put thought into formatting.
