Do you read the whole discussion or just the title?

If it's far too long or a subject I'm uncomfortable with, I don't read it or do anything at all.

I read what I'm interested in. Sometimes I read those discussions that my friends wrote here. And it's not worthwhile to trust the name of the discussion, it can be deceiving.

It depends on the subject being discussed , if it is something that I like I read through it. Normally before responding i go through the entire discussion or else how can I comment ?

I write both short and long . . . you can just tell from some of those comments whether a person actually read it or not. But most times I will end my discussion with a question . . . and I can understand if people just jump directly to that question. It's all good . . . in most cases it's just nice that someone took the time to say anything at all (unless it's something way off!).

I just read the title and then leave a comment like, "Great post! Have a blessed day!"

I find some of the comments are reflective of the question I asked at the end of the post. I always read the entire post. I've found that the title doesn't always have anything to do with the post itself.

I read the whole discussion and then if I have something to add or say, I go ahead and make a comment.

you will know if the user did not read the discussion if his comment is not really related to the post. i have some discussions like that, comments unrelated to the topics.

I read the whole discussion. I am always curious

If do not have time to read a long one and no energy to read it I may scan it and decide if want to respond or not.

I always read at least a little of the message. But sometimes they are just too long.

I noticed some replies were funny since the writers meant differently at the end of their discussion. I could only guess the readers might have been in a hurry at the time.

I read the topics of discussion and if the topics interests me then I proceed .

if its longer than i want to read, then i usually don't comment. how about you?

it's an old recurrent issue, even way back in the old mylot

I always read the discussion. If it is too long for me to be able to read and engage then I move on.

If I stumble upon a discussion that is quite long, if I don't have time to read the entire thing or am just not in the mood for a lengthy read, I will at least read skim through the whole thing before I leave a comment. Comments have to be related to the discussion and shouldn't be generic ones, so can't really reply without at least skimming through it. I wouldn't want people to comment just for the sake of commenting, so I try not to do that either. Also, I found it that if the title of a discussion is a question, some people will just answer that question in the comments and not read the actual discussion.

I do read the whole discussion beforecomnenting

I normally read the whole discussion before responding. if I have not time to read a longer one i skip and go to the shorter ones first then will come back for them when i have the time.

Sometimes the title can be the basis of it I will read a post or not. I do love reading through though for you never, the post may end up being an interesting one.
