Do you look at the author first or the question?

Considering the question is in a bigger font, the question.

Question, replies, then author.

The question. Who wrote it isn’t important in deciding whether or not I’m going to answer the question.

I look at the question. Sometimes I don’t even notice who posted it until after I’ve already answered it.

I always read the question first. Actually, I barely ever look at the author. Unless it’s @daloon, then I know I have a lot of reading ahead of me.

I look at both. Of course the question stands out first but I do like to know the name of the person I’m speaking to and/or trying to help.

Question, then the author to see if I want to answer it.

How did I know, this question was asked by a ABer?

What are we are doing transferring answerbag questions to here?

No, the question.

Usually the question…sometimes the author :)

Most of the time the question first.

Thx Mrs L, seems like some don’t care for us being here.

@Mandomike It’s interesting what people get p/o’d about.lol!

I always look at the Question first….

Then; if I am realy interested; I look at the other answers… and give mine .

IF it is something I am deeply concerned over ; I might look at the author and even reply directly to them also…

I look at the question first. But I’d be lying if i said I don’t notice the author. If it’s one of my favorites, I for sure go in and read the details even if the question isn’t appealing.

I always look at the question first.

Thanks @Jade

Being a narcissist I look at myself first and then I look at the question.

Unless the question was penned my me. Then I look at the author.

Beautiful Chuck.

I look at the question first

the question every time – and seeings as im a ‘newbie refugee theres not much point me looking at the author lols

I always look at both. Sometimes I’ll answer a question I’m not that interested in if it’s for a Jelly I especially like, and sometimes I’ll skip a question if the asker is someone who tests my patience.

Question…I pay no attention to the author.

I’m wondering if it really matters that much. What is the significance of doing one or the other or both?

That would be the question definately.

The Q Mike… but I answered it because I recognized you.

The question speaks volumes of what and why the “author” was thinking and feeling so no real need to go there.

The Question for sure! But you tend to “stand out” from the rest!

The question.
