discussion for the sake of discussion

I hate all those discussions for the sake of discussion topics. I understand that I don't get a comment for all my responses because there's nothing much to comment. One opinion given and it makes sense...there's nothing much to respond besides a 'Thanks for the response' which I think is against the guidelines of myLot. I usually don't bother when I see a discussion which is obviously just started for the sake of starting one even if the person who started it is on my friend list.

Hi Dear I totally agree with you .. We should always keep a discussion alive no matter how old it is .. if you are getting responses -- you should always comment back .. it makes it look quite lively ... For me -- I used to do it earlier For now -- I don't have much time now but still whenever I get a chance I try to keep my discussion alive as well as comment back to the discussion of my friends .. Some people are not so much familiar with how things work on mylot .. otherwise they will definitely keep the discussion alive.. I won't like to blame anyone here -- I know people are busy and don't have time that's why they are not able to comment back.

I love exchanging of thoughts and leaving a comment is very important to me..But, I have noticed not everyone observed that so, I just accept the fact that maybe their time here is very limited and they just want to focus in posting one response and end up the conversation! In my case, i tried hard to leave a comment to the responses given to me, I would not say I am perfect in doing it since I knew that I missed some and only recover after a week or even a month!

Hi cupid, Actually I am not really particular with it. But in some ways I don't like it too. I like lively discussions but I do comment on issues that would interest me or catches my attention. :)

I won't start a discussion for the sake of discussion. I start a discussion when I do need an answer.

sometimes I find that there is no topic attracts me,sometimes I am not sure of the real meaning other topics and don't know what to say,then I like to start my own discussions instead.in fact,my English is not good,I always make grammar mistakes and spelling mistakes and sometimes describe my consideration with wrong words,fortunately,there are always many friends who try to understand what I want to express,they often give them good advices to help me,and share their opinions and experience with me,which makes me moved. so,I often try to comment every response if I have enough time,and sometimes I will response later when I'm busy.by this way,I can also improve my English ability,and try to understand the meaning of discussions started by others and response them. whatever,as you say,people here is more important.So,enjoy staying here,ignore unhappy things happened here. all the best!

I don't mind it from time to time. If I can be bothered answering those type of discussions I will, if not then I won't. I can't answer everyone of my friends discussions because I am not online as much as I use to and by the time I am finished with the email notifications, I don't have time to answer any others. Sometimes I don't have anything else to add.

I make it a point not to respond to discussions that are created for the sake of a a discussion or the single penny earned... they tend to be shallow are usually one liners... i love it everytime i respond... the person would comment back... that usually means that the person cares about the discussion he/she started... So if you will look at the discussions that i started... i comment to mostly all those who respond and i also give them a positive rating even if thier opinion is different from mine...
