It's alright once you think about what it's there for.....so people dont give answers like 'Yes'......its so that people give explanations as well. And if you're so determined that you're only going to type one word, just go ..........

I think this is a good rule, it encourages people to write longer and more thoughtful posts. This is a message board, not a chat room. It's designed for people to leave messages for others, not 3 character replies.
There is this rule and the 30 seconds between post rules that help to deter those outrageously shallow threads about "live match discussions" with one-liners back and forth. In a chat room setting, it would be easy to follow such a conversation, but it's a pain in the butt to read on here.
After watching the Hewitt-Federer final, I came on here and saw one of those "live discussions," which was like 200 messages long. I started to read it from the beginning but simply couldn't read it all, it was all stream of consciousness drivel (well most of it).
