How do you rank these factors in your decision to read and/or respond to a post:
1. the topic;
2. the reviewer;
3. length of time since the initial post;
4. size of the thread;
5. some other factor]s].
Do the same considerations apply across muliple Boards, or do they vary from Board to Board?
Thanx.
the rest are important, especially the reviwer.
So I would rank: 1 (3,4) 2.
I have to say that I look at the topic, then the poster.
There are some posters I will always read/respond to.
Then there are those who get beligerent or rude to someone who I sometimes respond to.
But, mostly, people who hide behind an alias are those that I don't care to hear from or respond to.
I do have some friends who post on these boards and I will always read their thoughts and in most cases, respond.
Just my opinion...

Some posts are just so ridiculous I just have to chime it.
Quite often a guilty pleasure on this end as well!
Actually, I think you listed them in the right order. The topic is the first thing. If it's interesting, I'll read it, and if they say anything to which I think I can contribute, I will.
Next are the reviewers. There are several whose posts I will read simply because their names are on it. I have found that some people on this board are very intersting to read.
The other factors don't matter as much to me, beyond the idea that I know that if I respond to something written a month ago no one will read what I wrote, so I'm not likely to add to it.
If it's a long thread, it usually suggests there is something interesting in it.
Finally, I always read threads about new Providers or Agencies. I have so much to learn that any information I can get here would help.
