Hello everybody here at myLot, i have just spend some time to go through running discussions and somehow cannot worked out, what is the right subject. If you have a time, check out, how many responses you get for any topic. There is many discussions right now but not much interest in them. Why is that? Maybe it is because myLot have only little over 110.000 members, or maybe not. What do you think about ?

hello strogy! i think it depends on the mylotters whether they feel like responding or not.. or if you post a very interesting discussion like those on life, relationship, parenthood.... or perhaps just about anything that's catches ;ife's spontaneity ;-)

hi there, just visited your "avatar disc.". I don't need to know what is the perfect topic, but when you are in front of screen and typing something, you would like to get some response. Don't you? All i want is others opinion. Just think about a bit, that's all. Thanks

Hello strogy! Let me be frank. Wait a minute - I want to be Bill. Uuhhgh. Anyways, if you are here for money or a lot of responses, you are in the wrong place. Everyone has a different idea of what a "quality" discussion is. And so do all the viewers of the posted discussions. I have had very low responses myself. Yes, it's annoying, but that is the response to what I have posted. What I have noticed is that discussions about everyday, simple events get the most responses. It appears that the less thinking involved in responding to a discussion, the more responses. Remember, you are trying to get people to respond. What do most people go through in life? Think in that line of thought and you will have more responses. The reader needs to be able to personally identify with the topic. And so far in my short experience here, deep thought topics aren't the bread and butter here. So try a more socially popular topic if you want increased responses. And welcome to myLot!

Hi and welcome to myLot strogy. First of all the number of members is not quite that number you see there because that includes all accounts - some of them are closed but have not been deleted from the total number of members. As for what is the 'right' topic for a discussion. Well I think it could just about be anything that comes into your mind. As long as it is not a topic that has already been discussed before then it's fine. Use a bit of imagination and you can come up with many things. Hope you will enjoy your stay here and happy myLotting!

learning, learning, learning - yeah , i know. i'm not afraid my imagination, what i ment, is the low number of responses for any topic. There is some activity around money making programs and how to make most of myLot. But where is discussin? Anyway, thanks for your comment.
