Seriously.
Damn near every thread posted that contains more than 10 words or 30 letters, this one included, gets a 'tl;dr' stamp from some neck bearded neanderthal with the IQ of a raisin.
So many people whine tl;dr when presented with information, and then *****, complain and kvetch, spewing ignorant babble because they refused to be bothered to read what was presented to them and instead rely on rumor, innuendo and outright wild guesses.
The attention span of the modern human is shorter than a dog with a yard full of squirrels. Not just in this game ( where it becomes GLARINGLY obvious ) but throughout the entire population.
These modern morons cant be bothered to take the time to read information intended to enlighten them, but they can most assuredly take the time to post "tl;dr" and proclaim to all with proud declarations that they are ignorant and willfully choose to be.
And most of the rabble rally 'round, pointing to that self assigned badge of ignorance and proclaim it "cool".
No wonder the world is screwed up.

tl;dr kinda means the post is boring too, if a post is long but interesting most people will feel they'll get something out of reading it and will continue.
If it seems like it's going no where after 3 or 4 lines, tl;dr
----------------------
Hope that they'll make this game fun again is the only reason i still play. |

I agree completely actually. I left EVE for a year or so only to come back to find a whole new band of phrases that the herd was following such as: "u mad", "cool story bro", "x/10 troll" and the infamous "can I have your stuff" and many more ******ed catch phrases I'm neglecting to mention I'm sure. That all being said your post appears to be intelligent and thus has no place in these forums. The sad part is a forum was a concept invented thousands of years ago as a gathering place for ideas but as you can see that concept has degraded as the stupid people began to outnumber the smart ones.
Expect flames.

And you expect random people on the internet to care because....
Why do people continue to bring their asinine pet peeves to a game forum? Are they addicted to being flamed and trolled?  Go wave a picket somewhere, I can guarantee people will find you just as irritating and you will receive exactly the same reaction as you have here.

Consider that the majority of such "information" intended to "enlighten" us is actually a complete load of *******s and utterly unworthy of memorizing.
If I'm going to be reading something painful, I would rather spend that time reading words of value and practical use. Why read another 1000 word essay on 'why local needs to be removed' followed by 15 pages of long winded replies when I could read a chapter or two of a chemistry book or slightly improve my (bloody terrible) Russian.
I'm used to briefly skimming over the forums for a brainless laugh or making a quick post here and there. It's not because I'm a moron with zero attention span. It's usually because I'm in the middle of something more worthwhile and I'm browsing to break the tedium. Pretty sure I'm not alone here.

Ok, but what about when it's time to write like a grown up, and you've forgotten how to spell common words?

I was expecting a message hidden in the middle of the OP to catch out people who just skimmed it. I am very disappointed now, would not read again.
