Do you read the previous posts before posting in a thread?

i always read the opening post. then it depends what the topic is about whether i read the rest
Yup, same. If the opening post seems interesting and the topic isn't INSANELY long, then I'll read all the posts. Otherwise, I'll just read the op and the newest ones.

I try to read every post, because when I usually post my opinion about something, someone from an earlier post debunked what I just typed. So now, I'm real careful.
But that doesn't mean it still doesn't happen though 🤣

Just because someone's head was chopped off doesn't mean they're dead. That's just silly.

I only read the whole thing if it hasn't grown to large, if it has I read the opening and maybe the last two pages

Read some of them sometimes, usually read a whole page but not all the pages if its a long thread.

I sometimes read them, and sometimes I read them because of the thread itself since a lot of them are hilarious to read 😀

Same here. It's too much trouble to read every page.

same aswell, unless it's a short thread or interesting enough to warrant reading millions of pages

I find that if you skip a lot of posts in a thread, you miss a lot of interesting things. Quite a bit of blackmail on occassion. 🤣
I go away and suddenly the spammers are the mods. Okay, I can adjust to that, but... Gorath?! And what's up with Mam's not being the top poster?

😳 I read the opening posts. I don't usually read the previous posts unless there aren't that many...like only 3 or less pages of replies. Any more and I won't even try...XD

Depends on the thread. If it's something like this, where what was said before likely won't influence what I have to say, then no (I'll usually read the opening post then). If it's a long Chatterbox topic, like some of the 18+ threads, then no. If it's a Looking for... then usually I will.
And all of that changes over time. =)
If you've ever thought or said "Nice Guys finish last" and really meant it, then you should probably read this LJ post by DivaLion. It's incredibly insightful whether you're male or female.
