    Yes, that is a problem sometimes. I'll open a thread and I'll be disappointed in the contents.

    But at least I'll know that I don't need to revisit it again!

    I don't. I don't even read all the new posts in threads that interest me; just don't want to spend so much time staring at a screen.

    How could you read every thread, let alone every post? You'd have to have absolutely no life.

    I definitely don't, like others I read what catches my eye after clicking New Posts.

    I've definitely quit reading OldFella's topics -- he makes interesting titles and then I get through his post and wish I had my click back.

    If I get bored enough though, I'll read a majority of the newest posts.

    No. I'd say I read maybe half of the red room threads, a handful of blue room blogs, and visit media central and the green room once in a while. For the red room, I look at who started the thread and who made the last post. If they are both people who are consistantly annoying, I usually don't bother. :shrug:

    Starting last night, in between calls, I read all the threads from the past week or so.

    A few thoughts:
    There is some good content here, and some good posters.
    Why the hostility towards "resurrecting" threads?
    :)

    I tend to skip the apostle ones, they're usually shite.

    It's amazing that I don't really much care for you, either!
