You'd think this would be the norm.

I really dislike it when people skim through posts so they can focus on their own. It's really obvious when they repeatedly miss details that they would have noticed if they actually bothered to read it properly

Yea, doing this killed was probably what killed my biggest RP ever. We had like 14-16 people in this crazy casual pair-based RP. Because there were so many people, I skimmed through most of the posts. Doing this caused the best writer in the RP to drop, and eventually helped the RP stall and die.
Suffice to say, I no longer skim.

[hider=TL;DR] SKIMMING KILLS, READ ALL POSTS ALL DAH TIME.[/hider]

EDIT: Oh yeah, and in this one RP, EVERYONE ignored a super important post in which I shot at like 3-4 other characters. [u]All of them [/u] ignored it. I ended up dropping since my character could no longer logically interact with those guys.
