1. --------Is your reply to a thread influenced after you read the user name of the O.P or it doesn't matter to you whoever the O.P. is. You just want to focus on the topic under discussion without having any prejudice/past grudges against the O.P and vice versa. For example, would your way of replying to a thread change if the O.P. were your best friend on GS and vice versa. (From polite to sarcastic and vice versa).
**
So far my replies havenot been influenced by who is posting. **
2.-------- Does it matter to you how rational the presented logic is or your focus is more on the 'gender' a comment is supporting ? Is your giving "likeness" also influenced by the "username" who gave the comment or the gender in favor of which the comment was given.
My focus is on the comments. **My likeness is not influenced by the username at all.
***3.--------If the topic of the thread or a post doesn't make sense to you, do you still remain respectful and disagree or you cross the boundaries of good manners.

Yes again so far I have been respectful (as far as i know) and planning to remain like this**.
I try to remain respectful but sometimes people really grind my gears (piss me off:) ) Especially if it's about religion which I know is not a good thing to do.
Sometimes my oppinion is influenced by the OP if I have read their answers, views in the past. Usually I ignore usernames though, I just read posts in the thread
1 - Maybe some topics might interest me more because of particular posters, but generally i read whatever makes me curious, regardless of who posted it
the answers on here are evidence that people are just liars - intentional or not..
of course everyone replies based on who the OP is. else Prem Minister would be getting as many replies as psyah.
further more, most people don't even think for themselves - and tend to align and parrot views and conclusions expressed by certain posters early on in the thread.

Ans: No, it doesn’t matter to me who is OP of the topic, if i find topic interesting i do reply. But i like to read topics posted by my favorite members.. but its not necessary for me to reply them as well.
2.-------- Does it matter to you how rational the presented logic is or your focus is more on the ‘gender’ a comment is supporting ? Is your giving “likeness” also influenced by the “username” who gave the comment or the gender in favor of which the comment was given.
Ans: No… i concentrate on topic and replies… not on username and genders.
3.--------If the topic of the thread or a post doesn’t make sense to you, do you still remain respectful and disagree or you cross the boundaries of good manners.
Ans: I try to be respectful but i confess that sometimes i become rude and my post shows it as well. But i try my level best not to offend people but i think sometimes it happens :sid:
Thanks for the helpful answers. I would like to add more:
1---------Do you think that a person is able to correct another person by mocking his thoughts and sarcastically ridiculing his posts ?
2---------Does anyone has the right to judge the real intentions behind anyone's post, and then reply him on the basis of that judgement without giving him any benefit of doubt ?
3---------Do you think that sometimes a sensitive topic discloses the real person behind the person s/he usually portrays himself/herself, specially after witnessing the kind of language s/he use in emotions ?

1. No. But then polite honesty does not seem to work either. 'Correction' is a murky business.
This 'does anyone have the right' business gets overused, misused too. A reader is going to go by their interpretation of your posts. Their interpretation is going to be based on your manner of expression, their own powers of inference, and their previous experiences with you. Benefit of doubt should be more rampant but sadly it usually gets reserved for those we know a little better.
We don't actually live in your head, those are just holograms of us; so we don't have the slightest clue what is going on in there. If you have something you want us to understand, then learn to engage better - especially if you have been setting yourself up as some sort of an educator. Should we be nicer? Undoubtedly. Should you expect niceness? Probably not.
It can do. But then one should keep in mind that the internet is a writhing mess of a marriage between the real and the fake, none of us should be expected to untangle the truths of another. Everyone has 99 problems and figuring out someone else's secret woes just ain't one of them.
Of course honest answers are required, not the ideal ones. What is your opinion ?

No. username only help when someone is referring to chain event of life. otherwise, I am not influenced by any memeber.

No. If comments/post are good enough. I will immediately click on like button.

I always remain respectful and never fall down from standards of my ethics.
