Loooooooooooooooooong

Are any of you like me and see a topic with about ten pages of posts and do a mental-sigh at the amount of effort it would take to catch up with what is going on? Do you have any tactics to deal with these monstrosities of banal commentary?

Yeah, most opinions I see here are really of no value. Skip to the good parts, and those who have a certain credibility with me and can keep my interest long enough for me to care.

In the order of questions asked: Yes, No.

I only read the first and last couple of pages...If I miss something important, so be it.

I sigh, but I always read the whole thread through unless I am in a rush; if I'm in a rush I usually come back to the thread later and give it read when I'm not as busy. :jess:

I die a bit when I have 3 new pages to read, but I tend to read them! otherwise i just get bored faster:(

I say screw it and don't read it :p

I read the first two pages then skip to the last two pages, hoping people would have quoted anything important from the middle pages.:D
If the topic's REALLY interesting, I try to read the whole thing. But sometimes I just can't be bothered.

Set your posts-per-page to 500, then you only have one page to read instead of ten.
