Do you check to see if the person or any persons have reponded to your comment? Or are some folks just discussing away with out ever looking back? I like to look back at the comments. I think it puts me in my place or gives me the boost i deserve when i get the good comments or not so good comments. I welcome all kinda comments. After all life is not a one way street! There are many avenues hahaha. Let me know if you check for comments. Or are they specific ones. I tend to check specific ones. The ones i know are controversal and the mature content!

I check each and every post for replies because I find it rude when people don't ignore me If I am asking them a question. It only makes sense if you ask a question you wat answered then you need to check LOL

I mostly respond to those who provide comments, even if they're not on my FRIEND's list. Because I always make sure that I look back and check to all those discussions I have previously responded to, to see if the poster has commented and/or would add some points prior to the subject. Yes, it is always a great feeling to see someone commenting on our responses. Since mylot is a discussions site, I believe that exchanging views and informations are the main goals of this site and not just to make money. I respond to what I think I can give my views, to which I can defend and point out my thoughts.

I sure do, every once in a while. I like to comment on responses and create some sort of dialog sometimes. What's the point of starting a discussion if we don't look at the answers given? :) The best thing in here is when we can create kind of a conversation trough our posts and I wouldn't miss that by not going back to read the comments given to my discussions.

No, you are not wrong. According from what we're told from myLot that is the way we get paid. I tend to balance the pay stuff with the harmony of a conversation though. I understand that if you are here just to make some extra cash, you probably want to stick with what makes you more money, however, there is other way to think about it, if you do comment on answers given to you either in your own discussions or others many people will get to know you better and get a better idea about your views and opinions and they might be more likely to respond to your discussions or maybelook for them regularly, so even though you might loose a few cents here and there you might gain too:)

Yeah i have been trying to get a dialogue going but i hear in here that you get paid by responding once and then you should start a new box, that way it would count towards a post/comment. But i could be wrong. I been playing around trying to figure out the method to the madness.

Hi, i always check my comments, twice a day and reply to each one of them too. I cannot be so rude and arrogant and not reply. I feel its my duty to at least thank the person who has taken out the time to read my views and reply to me too. I owe them this much at least, so i feel . Again there are all different types of people, and each one to their own choice and opinions. Sme just post and dont even check back to see the replys, for whatever reasons, i find that very rude, but its their choice i guess. Yes, if the responses are good we do feel good and if they are bad, we try to learn from our mistakes and try to better ourseleves too, so its always a learning going along side, whihc we tend to forget most of the time.

Thanks for the reply and i am glad that you liked it too. Yes, at times i also am not able to check mylot daily, but even if i do miss out , whenever next i am on mylot, i make sure i have replied and commented to everyone.

Yes, I too check the responses to my comments because it is also a sort of feed back response to your comment. As you said, it puts me in my place and correct myself in future while commenting especially on controversal topics.

I try and check back and see my comments. Although, I don't get a chance to visit MyLot all the time, so it isn't as always as often as I would like to.

Yes, after making each post go back immediately and see if I have responses for that particular discussion that I have started. It makes me happy if I immediately see new replies even if the discussion is very fresh and new. I see evry now and then with the discussions with new reposnses even if its already an old discussion that I have started. Its a motivation on my part and i try to make new discussions but the problem is that sometimes I am not in the mood to post new ones. Sometimes I ran out of posts to make, sometimes my brain is too drained think.

I often look back responses to my discussions that other members post. I dont' post anything, if I don't need responses.So i am often look forward to my responses. If i forgot to visit mylot, then I don't miss it if I open my email, and it is a good way to receive responses from email. But i don't often give any response to those responses.

Yeah that is a good system although sometimes not all my post responses come into the inbox. Sometimes it goes into bulk.

I always check my responses. I mean what is the point of asking a question if you are not going to check what the answers are! lol. Plus I believe it is just rude to ignore your fellow my lotters.

I'm fairly new to mylot but my email notifies me when someone responds or comments and I do read what they posted. Sometimes I'll comment back if need be. I'm not sure if I have the email notification checked as a default or even if it's an option but that's how I keep track of the posts. And, I agree I normally don't post something unless I am looking for a response.

sometimes i notice that those responses sent to my email get thrown into the bulk mail.I did save the address but i still dont understand why some of them go in there and some times its in the regular inbox. Anyways i go only go back when its something i need an answer to or want to know what people thought. I have started some controversy discussions.

I always look back to see if the person responded to my comment, it is important to me to see what he thought about it, and what he has to say about my opinions to the discussion that he or she has opened. I really think that this is an important thing in this site, for it is a discussion site. And you can learn much about a person from this. You can see if he or she only opened a discussion because they wanted to earn money, or really are interested in our opinions.

If the discussion is interesting I go back to check other opinions. It is nice to see so many opinions about the same theme.
