It doesn't really matter, just as long as long as you have 2 going kiddy corner from eachother.

I used to have really short bolts and 3 of them fell out in one session. I didnt notice the frist two though, they were opposite. I doesnt feel different until your skating around with one bolt.

It should not affect your skating at all. I've skated with much worse..

having 2 sucks, it will affect it doing tricks, you need like at least 3 in each

It doesn't take THAT long to put in 2 more tiny screws. I try to keep mine at 4 and 4 all of the time, but when I had bolts that were too short, they'd fall out often. I could do with 3 and 4...or even 3 and 3...but I'd still prefer 4 and 4.
