    why scroll? I hit "quote" and reply.

    if its an advice post i read the other comments to see if there's anything i would like to add to the discussion.
    Again, why go to the bottom? Just hit "reply" or "quote" under the post.

    depends on the amount of time I have. Sometime I just read the first couple of post and then comment sometimes I read through all of them.

    Depends, obviously. Some topics are asking for opinions on a design, a machine or notion, etc. So even if I suggest the same border design or machine as someone else, it has value to the OP that more than one person has the same suggestion. I think to say that one shouldn't respond at all unless they've read the entire thread is absurd. Now if I were posing a question, I'd read all the posts first to see if the answer was already given, but if another QB member fails to do that, big deal.

    Depends on how many pages there are.....usually I will read through the first couple of pages. After that I will usually skip postings and post my own reply. I guess it just depends on the topic and if it is one I am really totally interested in. If that is the case I will read it all before posting my reply.
