Does the amount of replies play a factor in whether you open the thread or not???

[pigalet42]

Yeah, it can. If a thread has too many replies, I'll sometimes skip it entirely just because it's too much to wade through. Sometimes if an uninteresting-looking thread has numerous replies, I'll open it to see what the hype is all about.

[TheMayor]

I just read every single thread.

[Chazmental Thief]

I also look for who the Author of said title is. Some peoples posts I just will not open. We are waiting for Cal to come up with a "Block Author" button.

Usually if an uninteresting topic'd thread has a lot of replies, it means the subject has been changed and is more than likely very interesting, pics, fights, etc, so its def. worth a click.

[lordxixor101]

It can. If the subject is entertaining, I will open it either way. But, if there are tons of replies, I'll click it just to see what is being said.

So, yes, it does play a factor.

[jtown1010]

It can for me, if I'm in the mood to argue with a lot of people on the internet I might look for a contraversial looking thread with a lot of replies then see what the general feeling is on the topic then take the extreme other side.

[biglu315]

Who me??? You have to packin at least 5 replies before I think about clickin.

[m4ch1n3]

Yeah it does, but I factor in the OP and the thread title more than the number of replies. There are some OTers who I will read just about any post from.

Before I look at Slugger thread I jerk off so I dont premature ejaculate when I open it...

[skisteve 2008-2009 Thread Killer Champ]

i like your style jtown.

[Da Donkey]

lol

I just pulled a jtown in the South Carolina Redemption thread for the hell of it because I am bored as shit! But that's how I am, too. If I only have a few minutes, then I read threads I feel I can contribute to, mostly sports threads. But if I am extra bored, I'll open the threads I think will be controversial just to see what's going down.

I don't know why but I still open ever WAR thread and it really needs to stop.

[Unforseen]

[Problem xX]

it helps me choose which one to open first

but i usually read them all

[OGPokerman]

i never open a thread created by someone who replies "first" in someone elses thread

[Quantum]

Yeah as some others have said I'm usually more inclined to read threads with fewer replies, unless the topic really grabs my attn.

[MissBecky if you're nasty]

I won't open a thread that has less then 15 responses, unless it is a brand new thread....(of course this is unless the thread title grabs my attn, which doesn't happen very often b/c of my ADHD) also, if a thread has an overwhelming amount of responses I will open it but then just read paticular OT'ers replys that I like and skim the rest...except for WAR's recent health inspection one...I read all of that...very rare for me.

[biglu315]

I think WAR is one of the best posters in OT. Real Talk

[XIAGuy]

Two-level filter...look at the topic and skip those that I don't have any interest in...if it passes that inspection, then I look at the number of replies. The bigger the number the more interesting it has to be in order for me to open it.

[threeven]

yes

[cmval]

Im glad there is no Block Author button otherwise no one would ever read my posts
