What if the thread titles/topics , any of those that are of interest to us were to be posted by another CS member instead (of original poster ) Would our replies differ or would we even take the time to reply ?
Me personally , I'd like to think I'd reply regardless of who the OP is .

Would you be talking about the 'Oh, I only reply to so and so's threads because they're my chum' theory?
Yeah. That's in full flow here.
I personally don't care who the OP is. If I think of a reply to it, or any of the posts should I read through it all, then I'll reply.

As I am not often on the forums I don't know many people here. I reply whenever I feel like it and who the OP is or where he/she is from makes no difference to my reply.

Hiya Bran
Perhaps that person doesn't want to engage/tackle with the OP due to some unfortunate history with them?....and rather than participate in thread and be cut off at the knees, best for them and everybody else in thread, to post elsewhere?

I dunno. I pick threads that interest me.
Hiya Berry , well actually that's an extension of what I wanted to ask . Just say for a mo that there has been history between you and I but that we're civil/friendly to one another and and on speaking terms . Then what stands between me and replying to a thread posted by you .

Absolutely, I avoid responding to some post/threads because of who wrote them, and am also more likely to respond for the same reason. I like some of the people here, and others not so much. Choosing who I interact with goes a long way towards keeping the peace, and my enjoying the time I spend here.
