Is it the Subject Title or the Posters Name that gets the most replies

Have a feeling that certain posters' names draw more readers in than usual, particularly ones that have been trolling ever so slightly

but for me, its usually post title.
 
Hmm, a bit of both. You get interested in people's horsey stories after a while, and want to know how they're getting on. And a lot of the titles draw you in, too.

I post in CR as well, and I notice posting trends there more. The comp reports of riders competing at higher levels understandably tend to get a lot of responses, as well as those of people who clearly know each other quite well outside the forum. However, there's also a good number who are supportive of our rather humbler efforts...

I agree, usually subject title first but if I've not seen a poster for a while then I'll check poster names to see if they've put something up.
 
It's the subject title that makes me look at a thread, and also the subject title that makes me not look at one, eg. a "how much do you think..." or "how is he/she looking..." these I avoid like the plague.

There are a couple of people who are friends in RL - I will normally have a peep at their posts if they appear on the front page to keep up with their news, but otherwise it is all about the subject title for me.
 
Mostly title, though there are some people I seek out because I like them, and some I avoid like the plague, though the latter not usually in NL2, more in the Hunting forum, say.
 
I look at the posts title first, however there are people whos views I tend to enjoy reading - so I will read their posts and of course there are my forum friends whose posts I read as I enjoy hearing whats going on with them at the time.
 
I'm really new but very hooked and I go off the subject title as I do not yet recognise many people .

I have however put on a good few posts and had a good response I have been made to feel very welcome here, everyone is very helpful and friendly . (Much to my OH distaste I have now found a way of being horsey even when in my PJ's)
