Do you read all the answers before you pick a best answer?

    Nope, I just scroll till I get to mine and then I pick it. JK, yes I read all of the answers, give my thumbs up or down, and then pick the best one or no best answer. Whichever is more fitting.

    It defeats the point of asking the question if you don't go and read over all of the replies.

    However, when I rarely go to vote on another question for a best answer, I usually skip a lot and vote on the one that sounds most right to me.

    Yes but I have never picked a best answer yet?Am I suppsoed to? IF you pick this as a best answer does that give me some points? (You look good today etc)

    Yes I do because I feel if people use their time to answer it I can at least go over them and make sure the one I think is best gets chosen

    if its like a question that has a simple answer then no i just pick the one that stands out the most but if its a true heart felt answer to a good question then yes!

    yes because i could pick a good answer and then find one i like better but i already voted for the other one. i like hearing what people have to say anyways :)

    Yes, I always do and sometimes it's hard because there's a couple of best answers!!

    I just started, so no. However, I tend to be less patient with clicking on second pages, so whatever answers fit on the first page will produce a best answer.
