I agree! If there are to many then I only read a couple of them.

i agree.. if there are an extreme amount of responses already.. i tend to scan the first and last couple of pages.. but i still miss alot in the middle.. sometimes i go back and look..

I will usually read it unless it is more than three pages long especially if I want to respond, because I don't want to lose my thoughts. But I try to go back and read the rest after I posted. It doesn't happen all the time though.

I usually only make it through the first page, occassionally through the second if its a good conversation going back and forth and sometimes I'll hit a third page.
Sometimes I do jump to the last page and read those as well to figure out how the conversation has evolved since it started too!

i agree.. it can be a very long process to go through 9-15 pages of others responses and in time forget your own! especially when these pages take sooo long to load in the 1st place!!!

i hear ya.. for the record.. i have started to read at least the first and last pages (especially for longer threads) only because sometimes you will see the discussion "shift" over the course of a few pages and it helps to know what types of responses people are giving by the time you get there!.. sometimes it will help in adding "substance" to your replies!

wow.. thank you very much!! do you find it very time consuming? or do you just try to choose topics with lower response levels?
