Yes, I do use full manual, on occasion! But I also use all the semi-automatic modes (shutter perfered, aperature perfered, and program) when appropriate.
Gasp, I even use Auto at times!

Nay. I found that most of the time the camera on P, the pro setting came up the same as the manual setting. I know how to use manual but condider it to be redundant. I just want the image and how I get it isn't a matter of any significance.

Okay, just out of curiosity let's see if most people use full manual.

If you use full manual at any time, yes, that means even on occasion, please say Aye!

If you never use full manual please say Nay!

I guess since I'm the lucky (or is that dumb) one to ask this question I guess I get to do the counting.

Ready, set, go!

Aye.
The first time I remember someone taking a picture of me, I was sitting on a Summer Camp bench with a Kodak Box camera on my hand. From that time on most of my cameras didn't even could use an automatic setting until I purchased a film Nikon F-100 that I used, (and still have it today) then I purchased my first digital, a Nikon D-70 upgraded to a D-80, then D-90 and finally to the two I use today, a D-300 and D-750. Today I use most of the time the full manual settings since most of the new cameras have a plethora of combinations, for speed, aperture and other priorities that can only be set using the manual settings,
My settings:

U1 (places and things)
AF-A, Auto-AF Area select.
LARGE BASIC optimize quality JPG.

U2 (people)
AF-C, Auto-AF Area select.
SMALL BASIC optimize quality JPG
Portrait Picture Control, 8 sharpening, +1 Saturation.
VIVID Picture Control, 8 sharpening, +3 Saturation.
