Interesting question, I would say about 30%-40% in ATOT since I usually don't bother reading threads that don't seem to interest me, the ones I do read, I many times have a comment to add.
For P&N I think its like 5%-10% and for the rest its probably < 5%

Threads that interest me based on the title I'll be more inclined to view and more than likely reply. Unless things I want to mention has already been brought up.

It used to be relatively high, thats how i got up to the 6000s, probably somewhere like 15% but now its probably xloser to low single digits. 2-4% maybe.

less hen half. sometimes i'll open a bunch (upwards of 10-15 interesting threads) of threads and not reply to a single one.

70% if you mean threads and not posts. Plus, I actually read thread titles before clicking, and if I'm not immediately interested I probably won't click until 3-4 am. Oh, and I don't read threads that already have 50 replies of which none are mine.

prob around 5-10%. Most of the time I'll start typing something and then just say 'screw it' and move on to another thread.

Are we talking OT only or all of AT?

If it's OT only, I'd guess about 5%

If it's all of AT, I'd guess closer to 1%

Probably < 5%. Sometimes I start to type out a response but decide to trash it if it seems pointless.
