    I don't know what the technical term for it is, Paul, but without "tabbed" text, ie the Tab key (I should have said, "indented"), many people will "block" their paragraphs, ie, insert a hard "return" (2 x taps on the Return key after a paragraph), the way I formatted that post. It leaves a blank line between each paragraph (like this):

    Without either, we just get a "wall" of text, like this (it's pretty ugly, & difficult to read, especially a very long article!):
    Ah - I think I finally parsed your comment


    As RunningDeer illustrated, one can distinguish paragraphs a couple of ways:
    1. Put an extra blank line between each paragraph.
    2. Indent the first line of each paragraph a few spaces.
    If you do neither, you get the dreaded wall of text.

    Lesson for the day: use at least one of these two ways.

    Since the way that posts are formatted on forums such as Avalon, "indentation" is removed, so the second way, Indenting, doesn't work.

    That means there is only one practical way to separate paragraphs in a forum such as ours, and that is with an extra blank line between paragraphs.

    For God sake, I am university educated, I have taught different management and customer related courses to adults a large part of my life, and here, I feel like the reject because of language intolerance or lack of efforts thinking of others. The contrary to my own teachings.
    When you first learned English you no doubt had to learn a whole bunch of slang and other cultural stuff from the past. Maybe your cup has just become too full with this past stuff to make room for the rapidly-changing Internet culture. For me (and Daozen too it seems) the acronyms in the OP (original post, ie first post in the thread) are things that we can take for granted as understood by most now. Or at least we assume they are, because they are used so frequently.

    I notice that many forums and other online communities have their own peculiar language too, that doesn't extend far beyond their own circles. Halfchan, goats, lobsters, LARPs, and baking bread come to mind. But stuff like tl;dr is becoming fairly universal.

    Quote When I read all the post here I am p ss ed. It is enough to discourage many many non English writers and about all those with some language handicaps.
    Now imagine how the rest of us would feel if we had to take up the burden of learning to accommodate 50 different cultural styles of communication for a relatively small minority of posters.

    Look at it this way: your frustration is a small price to pay for the "collective good" of the rest of us.

    As Voice From The Mountains says, I was not looking to alienate anyone or come off as an uber-hip hipster with all the TLAs and FLAs I used. hahaha. I honestly thought phrases like tl;dr were well known. Having ruminated extensively on the feedback I have toned down the orginal post. I write mainly for my own amusement. Phrases like leaning towers of html are fun to write.

    Look at it another way: Maybe there are advanced students of English who enjoy a little bit of slang now and then.

    Now... It is spring. We should be picking buttercups and cartwheeling in meadows. If not in body, at least in spirit.

    well Daozen looks like the loooong writers win. However getting to the point is important if you are not practicing to be a writer.
    I've written many adds and it is important to get to the point quickly for clarity. It also works well on posts.

    Quote Posted by Paul (here)
    What is a "non-tabbed or non-blocked paragraph" ?
    The standard practice for the manual typewriter was to return the carriage twice to create space between paragraphs and use the tab key for each paragraph. The tab was adjusted to five spaces, but you could change it like the sample below; either hit the tab twice or adjust the tab to 10 spaces. For formal business letters, some elected to use the block print method which there were no paragraph indentations.

    Word processors come with a variety of templates similar to what was used in the 1900’s for business, academics and the less formal writing styles.

    When I was in high school, it was a big deal when the business department upgraded to the electric typewriter. It took some getting use to from pounding the manual keys to a light touch, automatic return carriage and quicker typing speeds.


    Thank you Paula, I tend to be a visual person, so now I get it......

    Yes, If you do neither, you get the dreaded wall of text.

    Ok onward.

    That’s my point. Internet culture is not like reading business memos or something. I would have assumed they are well known too and I still do consider them well known. Also it would only take selecting the text, right clicking, and selecting “Search ___ for....” to figure it out in about three seconds in the case of not being familiar. Some of the internal lingo I see on other boards is more difficult to figure out and sometimes requires immersion in that particular community.

    What is slang today is in the dictionary tomorrow. We don’t speak Elizabethan English anymore. The Internet will change lots of things about our use of language, and already has. Adaptation is good and natural.

    Reading this thread and the acronyms, KISS comes to mind. "Keep it simple stupid".

    I think most can agree that there is one basic guideline that should be followed regardless of grammar or language differences: be generous in one's use of blank lines in large blocks of text.

    Maybe the mods could add something to the community guidelines. Something new members must read that nicely suggests that large walls of text be broken up with blank lines. Unless there's something like that already in the sign up form.

    Yes, lots of paragraph breaks and I like limited bold type. So, you know. LPB LBT.

    I opened the thread to find out what radial power meant, but then my eyes just glazed over somewhere before the end of the first paragraph.

    Testing, testing, 1,2,3. There’s an image spacer used to indent the paragraphs in this post. It’d be cool if there’s a way for an administrative wizard to work their magic by turning the 'tab.gif' into a smilie for those that want to indent paragraphs.

    (white/almost invisible space bar added here)

    Also if possible here are three space bar images: black, grey, and white. Note above the white creates the space but appears almost colorless against the white background. It’s not uncommon for me to use the space bars. I usually center them. The beauty is they create a larger space than hitting the return key.


    Note: if the wizards can’t make the spacebars or indents into smiles, another method is type a repeating symbol such as an asterisk ************************** and change/color the asterisk to white rather than black.

    I would say adaptation is a necessity for survival, so for the adaptee it is certainly good, but I don't see this (a change in linguistic norms) as an adaptation. Quite frankly I see it as a degradation. A backward step. We, as a species, are literally becoming dumber. We were not ready for (so-called) smart technology and social media. It ran away from us and got ahead.

    Was it planned, merely accidental, evidence of absorbing? technolgy from elsewhere, or is it an agenda?

    Given the research, with frequently less than ethical methods, into human psycholgy and the brain carried out in the preceding decades it is not too difficult to imagine some of this is actually planned. Admittedly only in the minds of disfunctional sociopaths - for no rational, aware, human would desire to create such a situation.

    As the human capacity for rational thought degrades and the capacity for AI to operate with increasing lucidity? improves we are on a very dangerous downward spiral.

    two words above, italicised and with question marks immediately following, indicate uncertaintly over the choice of word; apologies.

    Good night Twilight Warriors!!!
    Speaking for this Twilight Warrior…

    In the OP, I understood the web jargon such as 'HTML', because up until several years ago I had a small website designed business on the side. I created it before templates were available. Which meant I learned how to write code and custom designed sites.

    So while people were busy with ‘speaking in internet acronyms’, joining forums, snapchat, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc., I was busy with a full time profession, continuing with higher education, a side business and all the rest of what life brings.


    This Twilight Warrior has got a lotta light left.

    PS I agree with a lot of the formatting suggestions. Good thread.

Owing to its brevity and coherence, it has become widely known.

    My goal was to provide options for those interested. They aren't complicated to me. But like ‘speaking in internet acronyms’ is no biggie for some, this is second nature to me.

    I've used your method, or as I explained above, color the black symbols white: &&&&&&&&&&&


    As for the paragraph indention, it's an image that's approximately 7ish spaces. If turned into a smilie, folks click it and it creates an automatic indention. I'm cool if no one is interested. I'll still use the graphic even if it's not turned into a smilie.

    Hehe... brings back some memories ... that used to be a handy plug-in feature of QuarkXpress (once the leading "desktop publishing" (page layout) program, toppled by InDesign). If the Copywriter hadn't finished writing the copy (text), you could add "greeked" gobbledy gook Latin copy to get the "look" for the design/layout and a reasonably accurate word count to fill the space until it was finalized. )

    I digress... (sorry Daozen...)

    [...]It’d be cool if there’s a way for an administrative wizard to work their magic by turning the 'tab.jpg' into a smilie for those that want to indent paragraphs.

    Right, it'd be cool indeed, but, before getting into complications, one could have a hand at these:
    --------------------------------------
    =============================
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    My goal was to provide options for those interested. They aren't complicated to me. But like ‘speaking in internet acronyms’ is no biggie for some, this is second nature to me.

    I've used your method, or as I explained above, color the black symbols white: &&&&&&&&&&&


    As for the paragraph indention, it's an image that's approximately 7ish spaces. If turned into a smilie, folks click it and it creates an automatic indention. I'm cool if no one is interested. I'll still use the graphic even if it's not turned into a smilie.
    Sorry RunningDeer, I mistakenly assumed you were talking to us, forum "Admins"...

    One thing to keep in mind with Paula's creative solution if applied by anyone on this here forum is that such separators will be counted as one of the "9 (nine) Pictures/videos/smilies/emojis limit in a post.

    Happy page-layouts, all
