Usually. Mostly just the TC's first post, or if it's an interesting thread I'll get into the rest of the posts.

Nope, not usually, unless there is a reason to. Like seeing previous arguments and all. I do not respond until I feel the need to.

When I come across threads with around 100 posts and I have not seen them before, I tend to avoid them for failing to read the entire discussion.

It depends on 2 things... the topic of discussion, and the number of entries already made.

~-~I read them all. Even if I only get half way and quote someone I'll ge back and finish up. Thanks to that I've avoided saying, "she's kind of cute," about a pic of a guy who looks like a girl.:?~-~ ~-~Edit: Well, not always. If it's a "what's your favorite color" thread I'm not going to read 10 pages of, "red, blue, green, puke yellow."~-~

I read the TC's post, and just you know you can get modded for making too long of a quote so be careful... and then I usually read the last few messages of the post as well, so if you want to talk bad about me just do so in the middle of the thread so my feelings don't get hurt:)

What? Sure, I think two-toed sloths rule too...

Anyway, I'm the conscientious type that scans every message just to see how people responded...
