When you go are logged into myLot, which would you prefer to do -- Start a discussion or post a response?
Usually, the first thing i do is browse through the discussions my friends posted and respond as much as I can. Most of the time im logged in myLot I enjoy posting responses to discussions, and I also enjoy reading the threads. I seldom start discussions - I do it only if there's really an important thing I would like to raise which i think are not yet raised among the discussions.
This is what I usually do in myLot. How about you?
(** though, i'm not sure if this discussion im starting has been done before... I really do not have much time to read all discussions, I only browse recent discussions made 1-2 days ago...)

I prefer responding to discussions. I've never started any here yet, and I don't plan on starting any in the near future. I usually check the newest topics under my interests first before looking at other new topics.

Hi, thirteen!
Don't worry I was like that too when I first started here. At first I wanted to get the "feel" of the people here. And when I became more comfortable, and ideas pop into my head, that's when i found myself starting discussions.
Welcome and good luck!!!

Hello michecu,
I prefer to respond rather than start a new discussion. It is a headache for me to think of what to say whenever I need to start a discussion. Most have been said by others here. I prefer a light discussion rather than a serious topic as I don't like to make it hard on myself. I am here to enjoy and I love all my wonderful friends here. Hope you will feel the same too *smiles*

The first thing that i usually do is post to todays top discussions and it that dont take very long then i will go to discussions that my friends have started. Sometimes i can post forever in the top discussions then other times i cannot find much depends on whether there is alot that i am interested in or have knowlege of so i can give and informative and good post for the person posting the discussion. I only start discussions first when i have things that of interest that i want answers or advice to. Usuall when i think of something to start a discussion i write it down and when i have a few then i will log on and start them all right away before i start posting to others.

On myLot planet is just like doing trading business in conventional market. Where selling and buying running not stop 24/7.
But on myLot planet we are selling and buying ideas. Both in and out get paid, that is only the major interesting and next come the supplementary with advantageous where we will be getting cyberfriends.
If you got ideas, your as seller on this part and try to sell, perhaps there will be buyers for you. Same thing happening when you take position as buyer will always looking quality product at cheap price.
Don't just read, you are waisting your efforts in earnings but join, I mean respond to the answer. Make a target in a day for how many point rating that you want.
It does not means that having started discussion makes you better. To me I'm interested for earning figure and keep on learning about what is actually the QUALITY POSTING.
I'm here on myLot planet for the past three(3) weeks and wanted to look for how long or how many days that I can make up to 1000 rating points compare to earnings.

Wow!!! I really like you idea!!! I waited for my 100th post and it had reached it just a while ago...and now I guess, I must try what you've been doing cause I'm now excited for the next 100 post i'll make and probably be able to reach the 1000 post and see my earnings as well as the color and rating in my star.

I haven't started to make any threads yet. I wanted to check out all the discussions and responds to this discussions first before doing it. I don't want to start a discussion that others has already started.

i prefer to post a response rather than creating a discussion as i don't get much response for my discussion and i am getting tired about it... so now i just enjoy reading and replying to other people's discussion... if there is anything interesting that i want to bring up, then i will start a discussion...

I post more responses to Mylot discussions since starting a discussion involves checking whether the topic under discussion was already posted by any other user and how their responses were etc., etc. This is also due to the fact that I din't get many responses for the discussions that I had started.
So, in my opinion it is easy to respond to the discussions of our friends and other topics of our interest.

Once I log into Mylot, I start posting a response. I enjoy that more than starting a discussion. I also like to read response of my other mylot friends.

I usually go through the top discussions. Then I look at new discussions or discussions my friends have started, and then I go through my interests. I don't really respond to a lot of posts normally, although I have been more active these past few days.

I usually see if there are discussions I can respond to first.I try discussions my friends started and then the top discussions.I only start discussions on topics that I either need to hear MyLotter's point of view or I just need to vent.

At the beginning I preferred to start a new discussion. Nowadays I like to respond to others' discussions because it is difficult for me to think out a good discussion.
