Do people actually read the questions they answer?

As for my personal observations to those who responds to my discussion yes they do read first and sometime there are certain individual who are can't freely express thier thoughts but they talked with good sense about the topic. But there are some members who just answer for the sake of answering and without looking on the thought of the question at all. As if they are answering but they are not aware of what is the questions is all about. tricky lol!!!

I always do but I've noticed a lot of responses have nothing to do with the questions so obviously many people either aren't reading the question at all or can't read/understand English.

i do. i read everything before i response to the discussion because sometimes it is more than just what they put as a topic name, that they need help on.

Some people do and some don't. Lot's of people depend on only the title of the discussion and do not read the whole text, which is too bad for them. Why? Well because if they want to get the most out of their reponds, they got to answer fully to the discussion and their responses have to be relevant to the discussion.

umm....how else do you think they know what to answer...??!! kk if you mean...zbout the times...when you tend to get some totally weird ..off-track response to a discussion you posted....that means the person has just copied and pasted the same reply everywhere!! in such cases...i either report the person or give a negative marking!!

yea,,,i do, i just read urs. i usually read everything i answer accept if its super long ill just read like half of it and answer when ive read enough or sometimes i see the headline question and just answer that.

i think you should leave her, she's really not treating you well from what i can understand of your question. lol, sorry, i read the questions anyways can't answer for others. happy mylot day.

I think a lot do not. I have a friend that I thought was a good poster, but I have started noticing that she does not read them all and am ready to delete her from my list. I have a discussion about a dog that had pups, and got real mean. A couple of days later she calmed down, but people are still acting like they did not read any of the responses as they are still saying things like I hope she will stop in a while. The pups are well old enough to give away and I have replied to everyone saying she is fine, but now i just reply with please read any one of the other replies and you can have your comment from them.

haha... I am new here , I do. My english is not good ,but I will try to read out all the question they ask, because I not only want to earn money , I also want to earn my knowledge^^
