Do you read all of the posts of a thread before posting?

[Stalker0]

Alright, its time to come clean

Personally for me, if the thread has one or two pages I read all of the post before posting my own, but if its longer than that I often skip to the end to stick my nose in it

I didn't even read all the posts in THIS thread before posting!

 

[Mishihari Lord]

Ummm... No? What was the question again?

 

[Infernal Teddy]

I'll read it all

 

[Aust Diamondew]

I'll read the first few post and the last few post, and then if I have anything to add that is relavent I'll post it.

j/k

 

[diaglo]

no. mostly i just read the thread title.

for many threads that's all i see anyway

Yes, usually. Except for this one that is really just poll. Plus it's funny not to read this one. Though I feel quite certain I'm not the first to make the joke.

Depends how long the thread is and how interesting I find it, but for anything over two pages, very rarely will I read every post. Often I'll just look for particular posters' names or search the pages for certain key words after a certain point.

When I answer polls, though, I always do so before I read the threads they're attached to.

If it's more than a page, almost never.

Usually I just go through the posts and reply to the ones I feel like replying to. I either get to the end of the posts or get bored and move on to another thread. I did not read this thread before posting and there were only like 8 posts.
