Do you read all parts of article when you give respond a discussion

I would be happy to say yes but I'm afraid to say that I usually do not read long posts unless it has some specialty. I usually limit myself replying to brief and to the point discussions.

I would read all of the article, if I don't read all of the article I may miss an important part out and then that would mean my response to the article wouldn't make sense. Even if I got the idea of the article by reading half of it I would still read all of it. It is only polite to read the whole thing since the person would have put a lot of thought and effort into writing the article, and is expecting peole to read all of it. I would be most upset and hurt if I knew someone was only reading half of what I posted as I think before I write to enable most things to make sense and to flow so people understand what I am writing about. I think it is a bit mean to confess that you don't read the whole article

I read the whole discussion responses and rate each one to mark that I'm through with it before I add mine. This is one reason why I shy away from discussion with multiple pages. There are times too that when I respond to discussion from my mail notification, I never had the chance to pre-read other responses before me. In this case I read back and mark them as well before leaving the page.
