Do you read threads backwards or from the start?

[Alligator Alcatraz]

Sometimes, I'll only want to see recent goings-on and look at new posts. Sometimes, I'll want to see the drama from the beginning. How do you prefer to read through threads?

I do a healthy mix and switch it around a bit.

It's worth it to read the big, popular threads from the start because the 7th or 8th post is always something like "Gay and unfunny. Not a cow" and then you get to laugh at that person for being wrong.

i am dyslexic and very forgetful, and will jump around a thread until it makes sense.

yeah but 90% of posts are just filler virtue signaling and Dr. Chud MD diagnoses and my AHDH brain was fried to hard by the F5´ing the internet to got through it all

if there is some recent stuff going on ill start from the back, but otherwise i go from the start. and if it is a large thread ill stick to highlights, and if i come across a particularity good one, ill read some of the response to it.

i just flip my monitor upside down and read it

I typically jump into threads when ongoing drama is going on, so I'll start by reading the most recent few pages, backwards, then jump to the OP and go through highlights to get to the real juicy bits of what else I've missed.

Its always worth reading the OP first if you're looking at lolcows since that will generally give one the most pertinent information that dictates future discussions. However I wish OP's had more ability to be regularly updated since big name lolcows always have interesting and relevant information on like page 547 of 2346. At the very least links to specifically informative pages of lolcows sagas should be added to every OP regularly.

If you are reading Mass Debates pages than it literally doesn't matter where you start since every page in every thread is some new horredenous slap fight that falls apart at the first stitch of a seam.

threads are the part that get in the way between the title of the post and my comment, right?

 

[Grotesquependulum]

Backwards if the pages are in the triple digits

 

[Night Crawler]

I don't read entire threads because I don't have the time. If it's just a few pages I might skim over them. But most of the time I only read the OP and then whatever the most recent posts were. So that's like a page or 2 back.

 

[Poppavalyim Andropoff]

well the questions at the start so ...

 

[SSj_Ness (Yiffed)]

Usually the start, but if it's huge then I'll sometimes jump to the end and read backwards a bit.
