so after a second comment I wasn't going to stop to comment on what people had said, especially since I was asking about a personal experience.
I do this also, maybe make one or two comments but oftentimes I go through other replies and if there is an actual need for me to reply then I will.
This aside one thing that I have noticed is the fact that some members and not just the Op doesn't go through replies before commenting and then speaking something that has already been sorted out.
This forum is a min society we have alot of people from different backgrounds and cultures. Some people are not good readers they only good at commenting without reading through the topic to know the matter of discussion. Some will just jump into conclusion without reading the previous replies.
When I see such comment, I'll just avoid it or I correct the person, most of the topics I created last year, I still go on those threads to check if I have reply. And if I do, I reply to keep the thread active.
