I wish I knew the formula my friend.But i can suggest you make friends here with whom you share interests. I think people come here for relaxation too.so heavy subject kind of makes them little wary.So simple topics requiring just a few lines of amswer is what people here look for. But sometimes you want to discuss about serious issues too,I sure.May be you select friends who would like to respond to such discussions.

I think it has more to do with how many mylot friends you have than the quality of your discussions. If you go to the profile of people with a lot of responses you will find that they have a lot of people listed as their friends. I posted a question about eye color yesterday and it received 10 responses right off the bat. I currently have between 30 and 40 friends on mylot. Some people I know have over 100 friends. They get a large number of responses.

Even I want to know why some discussions get many responses. I think more general ones get more responses. Anyway I noticed that with a rating of 440 you have started about 70 discussions. I think you must start a few discussions and respond more.

Maybe wait to pick your best response for awhile. If I open a disscussion and the best response has already been selected then I usually dont answer. I just move on down the lists.
