Run on sentences occur when someone has a variety of ideas and instead of putting them in discrete sentences, uses commas and semi colons and such to just keep going which can be very disconcerting for the reader even when words like "which" and "even" and "however" are used to try to link all those disparate things together; which in the end, does nothing to give the sentence any great clarity or to make it easier to read.

Ex: The old lady just bought a new house and planted a bunch of new flowers in her front yard the flowers were daisys.
