Long Adventure Logs

So, some of my players have posted their first Adventure logs. Problem is, they are huge. Like three pages long.

Is this a good thing or bad thing? Should I tell them to shorten them or encourage their writing some more?

    I think it is a great thing. If you have them in their own wiki pages and not part of the actual adventure logs they could be as long as they want. I would recommend making a wiki page for each individual log so you don't have this huge page full of info. One of the biggest complaints you find on OP is that their players don't participate as much as the DMs would want them to. Consider yourself lucky!

    Also you can use :



    This will shorten it to that amount if you want to include all in one page and then they could just click on the link to extend it to read it all. Hope my opinion help.

    As someone who is lucky enough to have players write the logs, this is great news. Encourage and reward this behavior!!

    Long is good, if they are good writers even better.

    I'm currently trying to encourage my players to write *any* logs. It's awesome that you have someone willing to write such a long log!
