Actually Ken, i myself tend to follow a much different rule.
I read the first post of any given topic, ie, when it's subject is not re
something, and judge whether or not I will participate in that discussion.
If I decide I have nothing to add, or if it is a topic which isn't related
to me, then! is when I start deleting posts in that topic unread.
That's also why imho it's so important for subject lines to make sense.
Beware the Grue!

Subject: [Audyssey] Something I've Learned
I have heard people complaining about not getting much feedback on list. I
myself have griped and moaned about it a time or two--but now I understand
what's going on.
What it is is that people get so much mail through the list that they only
read posts by big companies and games designers. What made me realize
this is that nobody commented on psycho smash until you did, Tom, and they
all replied to your message, which means that they did not read mine. I
think that's why if minor game devs like me talk about a game, we can go
on talking about it for post after post. Then, Tom mentions it and you
get twenty posts asking what the game is. It makes a whole lot of sense
now.
