| On MAL.... Do you scroll through other users' lists? Or do you only bother with your own? I just wanted to see if there is some sort of consensus here. As far as scrolling through lists, I find it useful for comparison as well as just pure curiosity about the user I am searching. |
| I honestly don't really see the point of looking at someone else's list. |
やがて気づく本当の気持ちは そして 人間が大好きでした |
| usually just my own. |
| The only time I look at someone else's list is when trying to find a recommendation for them in the recommendation threads. Even then, all I do is click 'shared anime' and look at my own list of stuff they haven't seen. |
| Of course. It's necessary if you want to give recommendations or if you are looking for someone to simulwatch a series with you. Or for people with good taste just to get some recs from their list of some reference. Or out of plain interest regularly taking a look at the list of someone on my MAL friendlist. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| Personally, I'm a little obsessive when confronted with database systems, so I enjoy taking in as much as I can. I often just scroll through lists of people I don't know whatsoever. I'm wondering if there are others that do that... |
| Sometimes I do - especially when I'm looking for something to read or watch. Majority of the time, I only bother with my list, keeping track of my manga list or what was the last anime episode I watched etc. etc. |
| When I'm checking what they give the anime I like, so I know their taste. Also checkig which anime they dropped. |

| When I find someone who has a similar taste, I will definitely scroll down their list to compare and see where I could find another series to watch. |
 |
| Only when someone asks me for anime recommendations. |
 |
| I'll scroll though other people's lists if i think they may have similar taste but not if they have 1000+ listed. |
     |
| Sure I'll look through other peoples list if I'm posting a topic that requires it. Otherwise I just stick to myself and my friends lists. |
 |
| Only do it if the user got my attention, recommendations, and me looking for anime to watch. |
| I usually click the all shared-button instead of viewing the actual list. I do that pretty much with everyone whose profile I visit. It's often just a quick peek, though. |
| I definitely have superpowers. I can feel it in my balls. |
| Sometimes. |
Bum Bum Dum Dum |
| Mainly just the shared anime, but I will look at the full list under certain circumstances. |

| i have done quick checks in the past - people whom i respect (or rather, i respect what they write in the forums) |
| I rarely look at others' lists. They usually disappoint me. |
| FEEEW times I do. I see some random's animes and if I find something interesting like a good comment or a unusual score I scroll |

Karhu said: I usually click the all shared-button instead of viewing the actual list. I do that pretty much with everyone whose profile I visit. It's often just a quick peek, though. Same here. I like seeing what other people have rated the anime I've watched. I usually only look through their entire anime list if I'm in a thread that requires it or if we seem to have very similar taste. |
| Sometimes.. usually i use it to find anime that i might be interested in depending on what the score is |
 |
| Barely, Unless I'm interested or have time to spare. |
 |
| Only lists which are short usually. |

| Sometimes I check other's list for a purpose & other times,it's out of curiosity because I feel like it......yup. |
| My Devianart Oh & Space Brothers is still the best anime ever,in my opinion.Even when competing with Attack on Titan. |
| No. I hardly view others' lists. |
| When giving recommendations. |
| As a child, I was told that society is a melting pot of talents; knowledge and experience combined to form important alloys that will contribute to mankind. When I got to highschool, however, I thought that it's more like a river in which the water represents our peers while we ourselves are the stones in the river. Constant erosion by mindless majority sheeping has made us lose our unique edge. After I hit the age of 18, I realized that I've been wrong all along. Society is no melting pot. Society is no river. Society is a person, a very skilled rapist, and he has fucked us all. |
| Sometimes, when I need a laugh. |
| What do you think you're piloting? Great Mazinger? Dangaioh? For Pete's sake, this isn't some robot cartoon whose main character is an autistic kid or some punk. - Kiichi Goto, Mobile Police Patlabor |
| If someone show signs of sharing the same taste/opinion as myself in forums, I sometimes do a quick check to see if it's true. If I like his list, I'll take note of his higher rated shows as I might like them too. I mean, without doing so, I'll never find shows like Serial Experiment Lain, Gunslinger Girl etc etc. |

| Yeah, sometimes. I'm a very curious person. |
 |
| nope, stopped doing that long time ago 90% of MAL are clueless kiddies with shit anime taste... I swear 9 out of 10 users I come across love to masturbate over the same overrated shit |
 |
| If I stumble across a list that has a really cool design, I'll look through it out of curiosity. I'm not really qualified to judge other people's taste, so...yeah. |
| If somebody also have short and funny tags on their lists, I wouldn't mind reading some of them. Then again, I rarely ever click lists at all unless I'm recommending anime. No idea how anime list views can get that high for some to be honest without some exploits or something. |

| No. |
| I will occasionally just to see what they gave a 10 and what they rated low, as well as how they rated some of my favourites. |
| I only read people's lists if they have a nice style, none of those preset ones. |

| Only if it's for a forum game or if I need to go in someone's to see their score on a show. So rarely. |
 |
| I try to look at the whole list of all the people whose profiles I visit, which are not too many. Don't really care whether or not people look at mine in return because even I think that it's a pain to scroll through it. |

| I tend to look at what others rate certain anime when I'm bored as fuck. Its also good for finding recommendations, but other than that, I never actually look at any list but mine. (excluding my friend's lists) |
 |
| when they ask for a recommendation. |

| The most important things in life is the people that you care about |
| No. The most I've ever done is look at shared anime. |
| When I don't know what to watch I look throug others list to find something nice.. xD |
| I might sometimes check peoples lists to see what anime they consider to be really great (don't bother with me tho, because it's rather subjective, and I give out more 10s then other users, due to my gradigs system being a bit different). |

Although I only check lists from people who have similar taste, or to see what episode they dropped an anime at. |
