how do you figure out what threads to read? are you judging a thread by its title, the person who writes it, by chance, or do you read them all?

no. I barely read the ones I start.

what makes you decide to read a certain thread though?

nakedpianoplayer said:

Normally, if the subject matter is a little off the beaten path or if it's interesting. Or if it's posted by somebody that makes me laugh, etc. But a lot of times, it's just random. I think out of all the threads that appear on page 1, I might click 3 or 4 most of the time unless I'm really bored. I forget conversations if it goes higher than that it it ends up looking like I ignore responses to my post, when in fact, I simply just forget to check the thread again or to respond.

Imago said:

alright, good answer.

you have been on a few of my threads today. does that mean i entertain you, or that you laugh at me? maybe youre bored or, i won you over with the broken throat from oral sex thread

No, I judge by the title but if it's someone I can't fucking stand, I skip those, too.

Why lie when the truth will do just fine?

I only read the threads that have titles that look interesting,ones that look like I could be helpful in,and the ones that I start to see the responses.

no
Most thread titles don't spark my interest.

no

being in a different time zone, a lot of threads have tons of posts before i see them....to much to wade thru.

and i never click on NSFW threads

I took a look at your profile.

PANDURITO said:

No, far from it. These days I just pop by, click on threads in 'my org' that have new reponses, then occasionally go into the main GD forum page and click one or two threads that either catch my interest or were started by or were last posted on someone I like.

I probably post, on average, on only about 3 or 4 different threads per day.

It's all about the title for me

Fauxie said:

does that mean you like me???

nakedpianoplayer said:

Of course!

The thread itself is nothing special.

Are you serious?

Id be here all night if i did!~~~

I just skim over & whatever catches my eye catches it.

Fauxie said:

We're mostly on the same threads together.

That must mean, something

nakedpianoplayer said:

Topic.
Some I just have no interest in.
Sometimes the number of responses makes me take a peek but I won't comment.
I try to track mine but sometimes forget them . . .

nakedpianoplayer said:

That's not enough to make me skip it. But my reactions can be random. Disagreeing with someone strongly on one topic doesn't mean we can't agree or joke on another thread.

sweet!!
