Do you read the entire thread before replying?

In answer to the first post: I usually only read the first post. Unless there are only a couple and they're short.

Not usually, but sometimes I will if the topic is a particularly interesting one

I've been in a bunch of forums and this applies to any of them. I only read the entire thread if it is a page or two long. Otherwise, I read the first couple of posts and then skip forward to the end. Or, if it's a long, ongoing thread that I've participated in before, I just skim through whatever has been discussed since my last post (unless I have to read through a bunch of pages, in which case I just say forget it and skip to the most recent one or any posts I've been quoted/mentioned in).

If a thread has extended discussions, then I am more inclined to read the entire thread.

I usually do not fully read threads like this: threads where users tend to leave one post responding to the OP but not talking to other users who have also posted their thoughts.
