I vote for a word limit on secrets. If someone is gonna type a whole novel in their secret, then they should probably take it to their LJ or something. Usually they're troll secrets anyways.
While I agree that brevity is a virtue, this seems like it would be a hassle to enforce, ie it would require technophile to count the words in every secret which I doubt he wants to do.
There will always be difficult to read secrets, unfortunately, no matter what we do.
I don't expect anyone to count word for word, but you can clearly see that some secrets are bordering on journal entry rambles. I've noticed the amount of them are increasing too. Most of the content isn't necessary or it's a lot of backtracking (ex. "But I'm not really racist/pedo/an ass and here's why").
Lurking long enough people would realize that it doesn't matter what you say, there will be someone on here that will judge you. I don't think I'm alone when there have been many times I just skip over those secrets regardless if it was something I might be interested in.
Ah I was hoping my secret would be posted tomorrow so I could be early for it. Oh well. Since I'm late now, at least I can read all the wank that happened. I was totally not expecting that.
