Based on some of the responses to many posts, I'd say that too often the original post is not read completely before the response is posted. It happens even with short posts.

I agree about conditions such as the topic or the grammar/paragraphs, but not about the OP. Anybody can say something interesting now and then. One of the most thought-provoking and useful posts I've read here was from somebody who I had otherwise tagged as an utter waste of cyberspace.

Ditto! There are also certain OPs that I will definitely check out to see what they are sharing this time...

First, I'll say I don't read every post ever posted here. I only read ones that interest me or I think I might have some insight on. Of those, I do read them completely.

To be honest, it annoys me a little that some people 'skim' and they miss the entire point completely. I've seent his twice in as many days where numerous people are missing big blatent things in people's posts not least of which the actual question the poster is asking, or the fact they made a mistake.
