Default How many answers do you read

How many answers do you read before you answer? Do you search previous posts before starting a new thread? I tend to stop reading about three pages into a thread because it starts being redundant.

depends on the topic and content of the replies. if a post started a year ago of if it was just yesterday or last week. but typical until I either reply or feel I cannot add to what has already been said

Depends on what the Thread is about. I read all the Three Word Sentence posts even if they are seldom three words.

Political threads I just skim over as they do seem to repeat the same information.

Lost pet threads I will read everything.

Anything with a movie or book review I usually will read each one.

Read every Joke as I need to keep my sense of humor with the 224 613 Project. That's the only thing that has kept me grounded in the last 25 years.

Anything about Doggie Doo Run Run I will read as well as stuff about One Blood.

All it a five minute job but before I can make someone angry with my response I need to read the comments.

Many don't even bother to read the full original post! Just look at some of the smart @ss replies! (what did the manager say?...) Many times, the question was answered in the original post! Some people feel that flexing their message board muscles are more important than actual reading comprehension. Which would illustrate why they spend all day behind a keyboard instead of interacting with people!
