Is it important for you to read what the discussion says properly and than reply to it, or do you just read few lines and post a reply?

Yup unless reading the discussion how can u answer it exceptions are the one-liners which u can straight away answer without any reasoning or logical thought...

I honestly says that for many discussions I read the discussions fully and respond it...for some discussions only I read few lines and post a reply(this is happened at the time of log out process to achieve my goal)....

If you don't read discussion before you reply then your post will not yield a good rating for you, and you will be missing alot .So is better to read then comment on the post to get high rating.

Yes I do read discussion before I reply to that topic and the reason is brain storming and one more is that I can answer all of the questions which that user has asked.

Of course i read the original post of a discussion in full before responding, I also read a few responses and comments first and may read all responses if the discussion gets my attention and wasn't too long.. replying without reading is spam and you can usually tell when the response is not really on the topic.

Depends on the topic. If it is interesting and useful I read it to have more info. I even don't post my thought if I don't have any idea on it. However for some simple topics, -what is your yada..yada..- type, I only read the first or second answer before respond it. If I want to respond.

I read the whole discussion before posting a reply. Sometimes I also read the replies of others before replying to it myself.
