It's not a big deal either way, but some people might be suspicious of long, polite, and articulate posts on Reddit. I guess it's fine to be a little suspicious, but it's not like it matters that much. Just be careful about what you believe online, I guess. Don't take my word for it, though. Do your own research or something.

or in pirate terms..

Avast ye scurvy landlubbers! It be understandable to be suspicious of certain types of posts on the high seas of the internet, especially if they be seemin' too good to be true. But beware, not all long, polite, and articulate posts be necessarily suspicious or untrustworthy. Some scallywags genuinely enjoy writin' and expressin' themselves clearly, and may simply have a lot to say on a particular topic.

It be always a good idea to be critical of the information ye encounter online, and to fact-check it before sharin' it or relyin' on it. But also, approach online content with an open mind and not to jump to conclusions based on superficial characteristics such as the length or politeness of a post. That be all I be havin' to say on the matter. Now shoo, I be busy plannin' me next heist."

Arrr, ye be speakin' truth, me hearty! It be important to approach online content with a healthy dose o' skepticism, but it be equally important not to jump to conclusions based on superficial characteristics such as the length or politeness of a post. A scurvy pirate like meself may have a lot to say on a particular topic, and may enjoy expressin' myself clearly. And even landlubbers can be honest and well-spoken, if ye can believe it.

So let's not be too quick to dismiss a post as suspicious or untrustworthy, just because it be long or polite. Instead, let's take the time to carefully consider the content of the message, and verify the facts before makin' any decisions. That be the best way to navigate the treacherous waters of the internet. Ahoy!
