How thorough are you?






Always wondered how we all differ on this. I am guilty of option 3.
124 Gurus were better than me in BGE 2015 contest! But the best of all was DpObliVion! Congrats!
Depends.

If it's political I read them all to get a lay of the land.

If it's a game series I really like (LoZ, KH, FF etc) I read them all cause fuck yeah.

But most of the time just start and end.
What a weird question. I doubt anyone here does the exact same thing in regards to every topic they open. Like every answer in the poll has applied to me at some point

Do you have a pattern you tend to gravitate to more?

Not at all. And "over 50 posts" is pretty vague. The same topic might get a different reaction if it only has 55 posts opposed to 455

Well, I'm not worried about scientifically accurate results. Just wanted to get a feel for what the users do.

Either read them all or don't read at all
Hmm, this explains a lot in hindsight.

I like how the political topics on this board start off with something like gun control and then 100 posts later everyone is vehemently arguing about Stevie Wonder drunk driving manslaughter charges.

In short, I find it's kind of a waste to read any of it.
Okay, I rolled a 14. What's that mean? Hsu

Read first few posts to see if it's worth reading the rest
Keep reading until I find something to respond to, and respond
Continue reading and responding until I get to the end

2 + 2 = 4
depends on whether it's something with a coherent storyline

if it's a general discussion topic (transience, smfffc) then I just read the last few posts

if it's an argument about some issue then I probably want to read everything

I'm going to have to do a poll to see how much time each user spends on Gamefaqs per day.

I read through until I get to something I want to respond to and respond to it, and keep going and adding on more things.

I will either read everything or save one of my favorite Final Fantasy characters

This, especially if I'm opening a topic I've already opened before, there's a case where I might read all posts, there's obviously Save Mys where I save without reading anything but the topic title... So on and so forth.
