But of course, what happens when I expand my vocabulary and begin writing in essay format? I am accused of overwriting and coming off as pompous.

Tell me LiveWire, because I honestly do not know, do you want posts that a 5th grader can read? If so, then do not use my vocabulary as a measure of intelligence. If you want me to write as if I was drafting a final, then do not complain that the words are too complicated.

I'm sorry if this offends any who feel their intelligence is threatened, perhaps you should blame those who decided to land a cheap-shot by taking the eloquence of a topic as a measure of intelligence when I was told to convey the message in vernacular style in the hopes more people could contribute to the topic.

But again LiveWire, which do you want? Because this is really getting old.

Off the hillbilly hook, off the redneck chain!

But, I think you will find that finding a balance will be your best bet.

Think rough draft.

The purpose of language is communication. What does that mean? It means you use the language necessary to convey what you're trying to say. Verbosity for the sake of being verbose is not a good thing.

So many people don't get this but they need to.
