I feel empathy for this woman, and I know she's in for it. So I never participate in her posts.

if i started it, then yes, i read it.

if someone else started it then i generally do read it if the subject matter truly interests me.

if the subject matter seems like it MIGHT be interesting then i may read the first page and the last page.....if it seems good then i will go back and read the other pages.

if i read one or two posts and it fails to grab my attention then i dont read it.

if it is one of the really longstanding threads here (like pancake, for example) then no, i dont follow along with those.

so i guess my answer is.....it depends..... Smile

Did you mean long posts or threads?

The posts I do because I don't want to miss important facts..

The threads..it depends..

I don't participate either. I don't know what to make of her. ${#emotions_dlg.unsure}$

No. Hard on my eyes, especially no paragraph ones.

I read most of them if I'm interested. I will say that some of the longer posts tend to include a lot of very good information about a subject, and if other posters read it, they could make much more informed comments. Sometimes I read comments and think, if they had only read this post or that post, they would know what's going on! It does irritate me that people are so uninformed about a subject because they don't want to take the time to find out what it's really about, then they post rather dumb comments! ( not talking about opinions, as an opinion is what it is ).....JMHO

Do I read loooong posts?

Usually no. Unless it is from Gardenman.

ETA: I took the OP's question to mean individual posts not threads, so that's how I am answering...as to "posts".

Some are well written. I like those, whatever their length.

Cakers1 · ‎03-09-2010

Posts? Depends upon how far into the thread they occur. Sometimes they are just repeating what everyone else has alread said, so been there, read that.

Some I do skip over; depends on who wrote it and after a few lines can pretty much tell where it's headed. ${#emotions_dlg.glare}$
