Also there's this legit tactic https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gish_gallop that sometimes is employed by the trolls themselves to basically DDoS people. Preferring shorter comments at all become a legit behavior if there's too many comments like that. If there's long af comment, usually I'd like to see the replies or upvotes first to defend against that.
