I usually add some useful context in the post-body of the posts I make.
Sometimes, it’s rather apparent when someone replies (typically antagonistically) without realizing that I’ve already addressed their concern in the body of the post that they decided not to read.
Strive to be more than a knee-jerk reaction.

I’d say it’s 95/5… I usually read the whole post or skim read it at least before replying, but sometimes I’ll start typing and realize the post was very different from what I thought it was halfway through my rant, so I just discard it before posting (a couple of times I didn’t though).
