How often do you read the whole OP?

Never 6 18.18%
 
Ever 4 12.12%
 
Half the time 5 15.15%
 
25% 1 3.03%
 
75% 10 30.30%
 
Who cares? 5 15.15%
 
Total:31

If it's less than a page or two, I read every word. Otherwise if it's something like "Remedy gives more details about Quantum Break," I just look for the details.

 

I also read every comment 99% of the time before posting. When it's a long thread I read the first page comments and the last page comments to get up to speed.

Depends upon grammar, paragraph usage, etc. If you give me a wall of text, don't expect anything in return.

Every time unless I specify otherwise in my post. Usually, I read every post in a thread before posting too just to make sure I'm not repeating something someone else has said. I usually say something like "I only read the OP" or "I only read the first few posts" if I skip. Sometimes, I've read the first sentence or paragraph and I get so full of rage, I have to reply because it's so wrong. I normally specify that, too.

It's a headache sometimes but I don't want to make a fool out of myself.

I have this "bad habit" as well. But it can surely take a long time.

6 out of 10....

most of the time i get bored then skip...



 

If i intend to post then I read the OP and unless the thread is already huge I usually read every post up to that point. The only time I don't read the OP is if I realise the thread title has been misleading or the OP is just crap, which happens a bit.

thing is even if wiiU had a good couple of weeks in japan it's still way behind the gamecube. i really think, come january, it will go right back to the obscurity it came from.

Clever.



I'd say I read the OP 80% of the time. Sometimes I just skip over it and read the comments.

/lock thread... this sums the doom state of 3DS.
