Do you even bother...

...reading a thread when it gets ridiculously long? Like the "Put a face on the Shroomery" thread with 650+ posts. Or the recent "Yes or No" thread with nearly 300 in just days? I just find it monotonous going back to the same thread over and over to follow what is happening so I just don't bother after a while.
But thats just me. Obviously someone keeps reading/replying to these threads. Otherwise, they'd do the noble thing and die....

If I followed the thread from the beging, I just use the go to first unread post feture... I wouldn't read it all from the beging unless I had alot of free time.

Yeah...not really. If it's long, I skip it. I've missed too much conversation anyway, so the essence of the thread is lost to me.

Sometimes I do. What usually happens is once it gets long, I'll start to ignore it and then the longer and longer it gets, I start to get curious about what the big deal is, so I'll go back and read the last page or two, skipping all the junk in the middle.

It depends on the subject of the thread.
If it's in OTD and is something like "Amazing Scat pictures" then I will just pass it by, but I did actually read the post your pic one in the pub because it's about all the people here.
I'm more inclined to read entire articles though if it has to do with cultivation or LSD information
For the most part I just do like Gdman and go the the last post, even if it's a completely new thread to me though, I just hit the last post and read about the last page to try to catch up on what is going on in conversation.

usually not. rarely i do though, and in that case it's gotta be pretty interesting to keep me captivated long enough to get me through the whole thing.
