Sometimes I read the TT Newspaper online, and I find it difficult to understanď simple reports.Some are long winded, and you get lost in a maze of un necessary explanations.

Whatever happened to KISS? lol
To be fair isn't it the Editor's job to clean it up?

What's the default limit of words per sentence?

That is not the point, it was badly punctuated with run-on sentences. Did not flow smoothly so it was difficult to follow. He basically writes the same way that he commentates. Needs an Editor to clean it up. Content and plot are good.
