Yes, I really do. The Escapist is damn near the only game site in the world that has some basic understanding of grammar.

Everything I say is interesting and well thought out I never indulge in silly short responses for laughs.

I usually just take something off the top of my head, but whenever it's a complicated issue, or something that really forces the poster to think, then I really put effort into my post.

This, my friend, is the most amazing post I've ever seen.
I'll be sincerely angry if you get put on probation/suspended for it.
Welcome.

On topic: I try. I've been here for a (relatively) long time, and have a (relatively) low post count. I only post when I feel I can contribute, or am really bored.

COOKIE FOR YOU, SIR!
I like ginger snaps, if you would be so kind.

And I feel your pain. So many times have I had an excellent and thoughtful post, which has been overlooked by everyone.

It hurts inside D:

Depends on my mood and the topic at hand. For example: my early posts tonight were somewhat lax because I was multitasking (a.k.a. eating oreos and milk with my free hand).

I feel I put a lot of effort into my posts. I like to think out what I am going to say before I even start typing. If it is part of an argument; I'll even add some research. When I finish a thought I'll make it a separate paragraph then start a new paragraph with a different topic. I even go so far as to profread all of my posts.

Yes. I figure what's the point of saying something if it really is not that important. And if it's an opinion post, I feel a great need to justify my position on the subject.

Yes I do, well I try my best every time. Most topics I don't post at all because everything I wanted to say had been said already, but some times I will give it a shot anyway and try to make people look at things differently.

I try to make most of my posts over a line long. Sometimes I post pages of crap that probably no one reads. I try to make most of my posts have meaning...

You have over 6000 posts in a little over 2 months. No offense, but there is no way you can put a lot of time and effort into every single one of your posts...

Yes I do spend most of my time in forum games, but when I come to Off-Topic I try and leave insightful posts

Yes. I try to keep them short, to the point and not confusing. I actually tend to read over all of my posts at least twice, before I post them to make sure they make sense and there are no errors.

Mostly I try to make my posts somewhat readable, but sometimes I do go out of my way and make rather elaborate posts, whether they be retorts or large collections of links (it took me a while to make my soundtrack gag).

somewhat. I make it so it isn't impossible to read, yet not necessarily pick my brain for awesome post
