I really wish people would read a thread before posting. I see so many irrelevant posts because we tend to read a few posts on the first page and then post a response...

I think we just get excited. If we read the first post, then say what we want in response to that topic, then seems like everyone else's will be their opinion. Guess I don't see it that way...irrelevant???? I am so glad this board is so wonderful and fun and non-judgemental. I personally don't want to have to watch my p's and q's and enjoy it.

That's true, I get so excited sometimes and start posting and then as I go it's like, oops she said the same thing. I have time to read and still make this mistake. LOL. Happens to the best of us. I just laugh and go on. Just think how many people on here can post. Oh my goodness. I'd be reading forever. Happy quilting.

I'm sorry, I'm guilty. I do read through the posts; but I'm slow and by the time I get a response typed, proof read and sent, there will be several new posts that I am unaware of until I go back the second time to see if mine posted.

There's so many times I will read a topic, go to respond, and there will be 4+ pages already there. I don't get to stay on the computer great lengths of time (well, some days I do stay on here more than I need to) so I will leave my little 2 cents worth and move on. I don't mean to aggravate anyone, but sometimes that's all I can do. Some days I don't get on here at all and there may be 10 pages or more. When I start reading a topic, I may just scan the responses or just jump to the end...depending on my time.

No guilt to be had, we all write what we feel in response to a topic and others feel the same, so we read and keep going. I get tickled when there are two close together that say the same thing. And when I post, sometimes, three more pop in ahead of me while I type. Been there...done that. ROFL
