Do You Read The Entire Thread...

[Gvac]

before you reply, or just the initial post?

Or just the title?

I see lots of people posting things that have already been said, or responding to a question that's already been answered.

Just wonderin'.

99% of the time I read the entire thread.... Or I just don't go in it at all.

i don't see a problem with posting your own response if it happens to parallel that of another person. without some fraction of redundancy, would these boards even continue to exist??

i tend to read the thread. unless it's over 5 pages... then i will skim it.
if, at that point, i feel i have something to offer (mindless as it may be), i do so.

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

What she said....I'm too lazy to read the whole thread.

























Kidding...I usually read the whole thing.

[Gmann]

I try not to read anything Gvac related.






oops

[LaBoob]

I read the whole thread. If I repeat anything someone's said I just must've missed the original. I actually try to be really careful not to do that..... just for you, Gvac. :wink:

That's about 94.7% of the threads on here. That must really free up your time.

[drusilla]

i read & respond as i'm reading. very rare that i'll go through the whole thread then respond.

:lol: Funny..

I read the whole thread most of the time..Then try to steal the funny stuff so the people with ADD will think I'm cutting edge and fun to be with..
I have learned however, that a post any longer then a "Haiku" is gonna be passed by like a white kid at a track meet..

[jauble]

I read Gvac,then internally hear a racist/gay joke and then double post nonsense or a stupid picture...or both

see...

[Chimee]

I usually read the first page, then see that a thread is really long and don't post anything. It's why I don't have more posts on here than I do.

Who's a sick fuck? Who are you to sit there and judge me?

[jauble]

To my knowledge nothing serious from this one.

Anyway I skipped to the part where I was quoted...whats this whole deal about?

[drjoek]

Ive begun reading all the long threads now that the people magazine subsciption at my office has expired. I still leave all the really old mags in my waiting room

Am I sitting on the toilet to crap or to jack?

You want all my old In Touch magazines? lol I have all of March
It's amazing what crap you can read when your not at work! :thumbup:

hope nobody else said that.
i dont want to rip them off. hoo hoo hoo

i skim.

[BoondockSaint]

I guess we can pry that gun from his cold dead hand now.

[Furtherman]

I have the decency and respect to read the whole thread before I answer.

Well, except any thread started by.... you know who.

[~Katja~]

depends on the length of the thread and how much time I have...

10+ pages usually only the first 3 and the last 2 get my attention...

[furie]

i just read the first post. then respond. after that i'll read the whole thread.

[Gvac]

HAHAHA!

Awesome!

[FUNKMAN]

if it's more than 2 or 3 pages long I'll just go for it after reading the initial post and 1st page. sometimes i'll be hyper( after a cup of coffeee) and just quickly do a reply without reading anything other than the initial reply. some people seem to get upset or criticize someone if they repeat someone else's reply which i feel is silly. it's something that happens very little compared to their number of replies

[Fallon]

I skim some, if I get home from work and some crazy shit happened and I'm eight pages behind, I just forget about that thread.

[drjoek]

always read the entire thread!!

[ahhdurr]

sometimes I just jump to the end and answer the the first post - sometimes I skim. I agree with Friday though - it's not like if you have the same opinion on something you can't put it up.

[Sinestro]

Yeah. If there's not too many pages to read. And if there's some type of drama going on.

[Cleophus James]

Paragraph is my limit. But I won't post on anything I don't read all of it.

[Gvac]

I should have made this a poll so I could put the people who say "no" on my ignore list.

[Mullenax]

I try to read the whole thing. It seems like the long threads have serious responses pages 1-2, poking fun at each other pages 3 on... and I like to read both angles.

Hey, anyone seen Rouski lately?

[hedges]

If I'm going to post I try and read everything.

[Slumbag]

Can anyone summarize the first page of this thread for me?

[RoseBlood]

I should have made this a poll so I could put the people who say "no" on my ignore list.
I don't know if there's a time frame in which a thread starter can start a poll, but I was able to add a poll to my post-whore thread like a week or so after i started the thread.

*edit* it was really only 2 days, but felt like a week.

[PapaBear]

I'm thinking of reading the FBA bomb shelter thread. I may be busy for a few weeks.

That quickly? Stop bragging :tongue:

[ToiletCrusher]

No, I don't really like calamari. But thanks for the offer.

[GreatAmericanZero]

depends how interesting the topic is

[Hottub]

I pretty much read every single post in this place.

*tip* If you want to slip something past me, put it in the wrestling forum.:wink:

[sr71blackbird]

Honestly, if the thread is a page or two long, I'll read it. But use the youtube thread as an example: are you going to watch 70 pages of responses to make sure you don't repost the same video? Not me. Thankfully the poster that use to complain about that stuff no longer posts and makes an issue of it.

[STC-Dub]

It depends. If there are only a few posts I will read them all, but if there is more than a page I will only respond to the question.

[britneypablo]

nope

[Sue_Bender]

I usually wade though the entire thread.

Ditto.

[Leticia]

I only read the first 2 posts in this thread. Once it passes 2 pages it's too much to read. I'll read some of the first page and some on the last.

If it's interesting enough. I'll read more.

[ToiletCrusher]

stugots wine: wait, i didn't read the thread before I made this plug.
