    No line spacing

    What's up with those that post without ever leaving line spacings?

    I can't read them as they turn into big blocks of letters like one of those wordfind puzzles.

    As you can see I like line spacings. I heard when emails became popular this type of layout became the norm among the savvy.

    What is/ was the reasoning behind it & are we allowed to kill those that don't leave spaces?

    I can't understand what your problem is, the brave new world of texting and the internet has rendered the use of the paragraph redundant. If you can't read what people are writing without spacing between lines then you just need to squint more. What you need to remember is that there is no tab key on a cellphone and a limited number of characters before you have to pay for 2 text messages instead of one, so any redundant characters including those that could cause you to actually make sense of what is written are omitted in the interests of saving a few cents. It's not like proper sentence structure and layout were developed over a number of centuries to make what is written understandable to the reader.

    I don't have an issue with line spacing.
    Instead I have problems with those who hit enter at the end of every sentence.
    It's really annoying.
    And I often don't bother to read such posts.
