Omfg, why don't people use multiple lines to formulate their statement?

I have to hear 10 pings before they are even midway through what they are saying.

Edit: to clarify - it's not the pings (or any anger or annoyance toward those generally, it's the purposeless emptiness of them, looking at then individually), it's the short messages that I read and then have to wait for the next several to even get the picture (and in between returning to whatever I was working on before, several times).

You can turn those pings off.

Lol, I know, I'm not bothered by them as such.

And I also want to respond to most people promptly.

But not sending a sensible coherent message as one message is just basic etiquette. One could choose to send emails (or even physical mail) line-by-line too, each line in a separate message.

Or even here - this reply could have been posted in 6 parts.
