4. Do you mean 100% minus one, that one being the first post of this thread?
If not, then please share some description of the thought process that was involved in deciphering the Original Post of this thread.

5. Only those with internal qualifying phrases not set off by commas.

7. Quite honestly, it's not something I keep track of.
Some, is the best answer I can give

And some replies.

But then, that's not something that's unique to DU.

It happens everywhere.

8. Why put deciphering in quotes?
It's a perfectly good word, used correctly in the sentence.

I'm trying to decipher what you meant by the quotation marks. Is it similar to what people do when speaking and they want to qualify something? They often sign quotation marks with both hands.

I guess I can't "decipher" your title here.

12. If I get your meaning, about twice a day
