I would first like to pose a quick question to you. Why did you join myLot? Since this is a social network where people come here to discuss issues, share their opinions, offer some advices or just talk to others online, you must have joined with the same purpose, right? Assuming you have this purpose, if you have this thinking that whatever you share may be deemed useless by others, then you will not achieve your purpose of signing up here. Now, if everyone has this fear that what he shares may be useless, then there will not be sharing on this site.
What you need is a good dose of confidence in yourself. Perhaps you may not write that well or are able to express your thoughts fluently or coherently, but then there are also others here who have this challenge. Everyone has something to share, especially if this sharing comes from personal experiences. Such experiences are unique to the individual that others may not have. These experiences when shared can be beneficial to others and help others learn something they have not encountered before. You may have a skill or know-how in something, eg. a craft. Certainly sharing your expertise in such areas can interest others, maybe even get them excited in acquiring the skill. They can exchange ideas with you, and everyone can learn something from each other. Also, you may have encountered certain situations previously, eg. handling someone who was paralyzed from a major stroke, and you can help someone who now faces the same situation and do not know what to do. There are many situations where you can positively share with others here, and such sharing can be very useful rather than useless.
So take courage, my friend, and share freely. Just be polite, don't talk nonsense, insult others or use profanity, and you should be alright. Try it and you may find that you enjoy sharing. The fact that you have started this discussion, and we are exchanging our thoughts with you, show that you are open to sharing here on myLot. If you have no other ideas, just pick a topic of interest to you and share your own unique experiences on that topic. I'm sure people will be interested in reading about what you have to say.

Welcome to MyLot. Don't worry about whether your responses are *useless* everyone has the right to their opinion. I joined because I was stuck at home on my own and wanted to feel part of a community. I have many friends here now, as you spend time here you will find friends too

I was the same, I thought that if I responded to things then people would think it was a silly reply, but people want to hear your opinions about things and that is the whole point. Just give your opinion, as long as you are honest with your thoughts and feelings on the situation it will be fine. I am active on here, I just answer discussions that interest me or the ones that asks questions that I think I can help with.

You must never think your responses will be useless. When you take part in a discussion at myLot you are helping myLot, helping the person who started the discussion and helping yourself to earn a little extra money.
Your opinion counts as much as anyone here. Once you start to respond you will soon get used to it and enjoy it. Just say what you feel and why you think it. No-one will ever say your reply is no good, unless you are nasty or offensive. Please give it a try.
There is no such thing as a right response or a wrong response. Discussions are for all points of view and for everyone to take part in.
When I, or anyone else, starts a discussion, I want to get a lot of responses and I value each one. You could even be awarded a 'best response' in a discussion, so do join in and have fun.

Hi ! and welcome to Mylot. I am also relatively new here and I learn this site from my friend who told me that I can earn money by posting. To be honest. that's what motivate me to join here, besides I love to share information through forums and discussions, having learned that you can earn for something that you love to do is a great deal for me. Actually there are times that I do not update on my earnings and I just look for good topics that I can post. I find Mylot a decent community. My advice to you is to keep on posting and do not be reluctant to voice out your opinion.
