Do you slam the spacebar during dialogue?

I've always payed close attention to both my class and side quest dialogues... and I assumed that almost everyone did. But after reading a few pots by a few people here saying that they just slammed the space bar during evey line, I've gotten pretty curious. How many people actually pay attention to what NPC's say?

I don't slam it, personally. My keyboard's getting a little old and crotchety, and it sticks if I do that.

I delicately tap it.

If it's a quest I haven't done before, I'll listen to the entire dialogue. If it's something I've done before, I'll spacebar through most of the time.

With my first toon to 50 I didn't even realise you could spacebar

I have to say - it is much more fun if you don't

People who spacebar generally cry about a lack of content.

Depends on the quests tbh. The dailies on Belsavis/Ilum/Corelia I spacebar through. Since most of my guild and our sister raiding guild quit I have been playing alts up. Quests that I have just completed on another character I skim through (I have text turned on for all quetsts) So I just skim through the text.

For example I have just brought 3 characters up through pub side Coruscant, the Gree quests I skim read the text and "spacebar" through it.

Flashpoints I do the same, after the 5th or 6th time doing the quest there's nothing new to see really.

If I've done the quest before, multiple times, then yeah I'll hit the spacebar. Generally though if I am in a group I don't because I'd rather watch the same scene again and again then to sit there staring a still frame with "Waiting on Other Players" in the middle of it.

Currently on my 4th leveling character.

I spacebar nothing.

I spacebar past alien dialogue after I read it, or when there's a loooong pause between lines, or if it's a subquest I've done before and only hear my character's responses to the choices I make, or if I'm doing a conversation over to pick a different option (since I milk my companion's affections like that.)

If it's the first time I have done the quest- I will listen to the dialog. But after that, 2-3 alts into it, I will only listen to the class/companion quests.
