Do you read threads backwards?

[njdevilsfan87]

I'm not sure if this is "normal" or not, but every-time I'm following a thread, I'll always start from the last post, and then literally go backwards (not word for word, but just by post), and maybe even jump around, and then piece everything back together at the end.

I already trouble reading walls of text (not just on forums, but even on something like a news website). I can't help but to think this is just further screwing my ability to read anything, period. :\

No, I can safely say I've never done that.

I usually read new(er) threads from beginning onward but older threads I tend to read the first few posts then skip to the end and backtrack from there. Point being, no, you are not alone.

I do this as well.

the better question is, who reads every 10+ page threads from start to finish?

You're not alone, njdevilsfan87. At first, I thought dighn started this thread 😛
