Does it bother you when...

I don't get bothered, but i think they are a little self centered because if they are your friend they should give some type of response.If it is a post that they know nothing about then it is ok to ignore them but basicially i feel they should respond to at least a few of my discussions..i think that is why we have friends, am i wrong???????????????

Unless you are glued to the computer 24/7 it's not feasibly possible to reply to each and everyone of your friend's discussion especially if you have 100+ friends and they are active. Even if they are not active, you won't be knowledgeable about every subject they discuss. For example most of my friends are ladies and if they talk about ladies problems, marriage or children which I know nothing about I wouldn't begin to start to respond. We all have subjects that we don't know anything about and to reply to them just for the sake of it, is wrong. I do endeavour to reply to as many as I can and I have all my friends on notify which go straight to my email. If they are real friends they'll understand and would never expect you to reply to EVERY one of their discussions!

Wow, 1500 friends. How do you answer all of them? I really does not bother me if people dont respond to discussions. I dont always respond if I am not familiar with the subject or it does not pertain to me.

If I have over 1500 friends on mylot, absolutely I wouldn't reply to all of their disussions. So it doesn't bother me when my friends on mylot don't respond to my discussions. It's not a big deal, I won't mention it...and I don't think they will feel bad even if you probably never respond to their discussions...many mylotters here are facing the same suituation, I'm sure...lol... And it's up to you to respond or not.

Well, sometimes it does bother me, but most times it doesn't. If my discussions don't interest them, why get irritated about it? You are awesome so no worries!

yeah, it somewhat does. but i guess i can't complain too awfully much because some of the things i post are under specific interests like certain bands or movies and not everyone knows or likes them, so i understand in that aspect.

I don't feel that bad when my friends do not respond to my discussions..!! Yes earlier I did felt a little bad about this but now its ok!! Its not neccessary for them to repond in my discussions just because they are my friends. Its upto them, if they like the discussions they can repond otherwise no compulsion. But what really makes me feel bad is when I respond to some one else's discussion and they in return do not even say any thing in answer to that. It feels like our work for writing that respond worths nothing to them. :)

it doesnt bother me, but sometimes it makes we wonder why they are not responding. well its okay maybe some of the discussion i started is not the same interest as they have. happy posting wooits

I have a few friends that respond to my discussions regularly, and I appreciate that. I personally keep my friends list small so that I can get to know them. You have repsonded to a couple of my discussions, so that's cool!

Nah, it doesn't bother me much? We are here to share our thoughts. Not everyone has comments or view about everything they read on mylot anyways. As and when I can, I will try to go through the list of friends and participate in their discussions. Many a time I will find myself not being able to relate to the topics in discussion. There are also many times where I cannot think of anything to respond to the topic I am looking at at the moment. Rather than waste the time of the author who posted the thread reading my nonsensical post, I rather hold back till I have something good to share. So fret not if your friends on your list does not respond much to your discussion. It is either they have nothing good to share, or some one has already posted something similar to what they would want to say in an earlier post in the same discussion. ;)

It doesn't bother me. I think in order to find new friends you have to answer new discussions but on the other hand if someone doesn't respond to one of mine once in a while I turn off the notify.

It used to bother me when I first joined mylot, but it doesn't anymore. But I will say I don't go out of my way anymore to respond to every discussion they write like I use to do. There are some people who requested me to be on my friends list, and have never made a comment on any of my discussions. So why did they want me as a friend in the first place?

1500 friends wow but i hate it when i post a really good discussion and no one replies to them except 1 person. that does not make it a good discussion with just you and someone else replying to each others messages. we would be better off doing aim if we were doing that i bet

It will be nice to see taht someone is replying.I will not be disappointed if some of my friends is not replying me.Everyone is having theirown problems.........

I haven't really been starting discussions because I haven't been here as often. Generally, I don't want people to respond to my discussions unless they really have something to say about it. So, I don't expect all my friends to respond to them. And, I don't respond to most of my friends discussions as well for the same reason.

well ya had to pick that many to have them lol I have my notify on for my friends and respond to them as they come to my email box like you . If I dont hear from some of them I dont worry to much there is only so many hours in a day to be here to respond to poeple and ya realy take time to respond to the ones you respond to the most or not respond if ya dont have anything to say on the subject.

No, it really doesn't bother me unless no one responds as I feel that as many people as there are on here and that I have as friends, there should be someone who can respond to my discussions. I like this site and I like the people here. I know that it is important to have friends here but I also think that if you have more than what you could eveer do anything with then you might need to eliminate some of them from your friends list.

i do not require 1500 at least three.

Not at all that bothered I'mjust wondering where are there and why I can't see them in most of my discussion or even posting there own discussion. But I do understand there reasons for not being here wo well as I'm not that also.

I am always eager to receive others' response and if no people join my articls I fell upset.
