People!

Learn about the lj-cut. It's in the FAQ. It's your friend. One, small quiz is about as much as should be visible on your main page at any one time. Long surveys, big pictures, more than one quiz? HIDE THEM IN A FRIGGIN' CUT.

Really, it's bad enough when people don't cut pictures that only they have. I guarantee, any quiz you post, you're not the first. Nobody wants to see the same quiz 20 times on their friends page.

No, I'm not going to force you to change. I won't even keep ranting about it. But I periodically feel the need to ask people to start cutting their stuff.

It's their journal, but these are also the same sort people that throw hissy fits when I take them off my flist, or when they find out I have them filtered.

It's just really obnoxious to see long posts up on your friends page (I always scroll if they're not behind a cut), and pictures make it load at an agonizing pace. I'm not so beefed about pictures (you can use image placeholders, in case something nasty comes up) but those long wanky posts? Uncool.

I don't mind long, meaningful posts - I hate long surveys, but posts, I'm cool with. But pictures? NOT cool.

I haven't seen long, meaningful posts that aren't under a cut. Not to say they don't exist, but I think the people on my flist who are likely to make long, meaningful posts are the sort to utilize the cut.

There's one girl who goes on an emofest that would be 2 pages in word. No paragraph breaks. In my teensy half screen column.
