Responding to threads posted...

I was just wondering how people go about sharing their minds and stuff in forums. Do they read the original post carefully and then read thru the responses to see what other people have to say about the topic? Or do they just click the Post Reply button and put their two cents in?
Reading thru some of the threads it seems that people just want to rush to get what they have to say in, and alot of the time it just doesn't make sense.
I'm not saying I've never been quickly reading thru something and misread something. But I try to make it a habit of hearing people out...IDK!
What about you?

NEEDED ON TOO MANY THREADS

Well, I like to read through at least the first page on the ones that have massive responses. I read through all of them on fairly short responses. Especially if I'm going to give my best response in order to help someone in their time of need. If it's a forum game I just reply whatever comes to me first and I do the same if they just want a quick opinion.

J.R.

Yes, I guess I have to agree with you about the threads that already have a million and three responses... that'd take a while, huh? And the forum games. It just seems that so many people jump to the end to put their word in.

I used to read all the responses, now i just answer the original post. Im too hackneyed to care what other people have to say these days.

Depends on my mood..

Sometimes i take it seriously and read a debate thoroughly before commiting myself to being slaughtered and other times i couldnt care a damn what others say i just want to throw my opinion out there..

I read the first 2 pages and then reply. If it's any longer I tend to lose concentration and just go straight to responding to the OP.

Both, depending on the thread.
