Surprises Mylot Discussions

I believe I saw your post but wasn't able to comment on it. Or it might have been a different discussion that I am thinkning about. Either way, I know how you feel when you post a really good discussion in hopes to get a lot of advice and then get only a few people who respond. In the past I have had this happen many times. I wish I could add a discussion that I really need help on, but at the moment I don't have any. All I have is a discussion that I started just to have a little fun and it hasn't had a hugh success in responses. But it's okay it was only for fun!

Sometimes, you think it is good but the others not. You know what I mean. And sometimes "not good" but you never know it might be pretty good for someone else. That's why it is very hard to predict. I post as I please and I reply as I please. Some of my topic has no replies at all and I think it is very good post for everyone, but it is OK because that someone miss one more good one and not me... hehehe. Happy posting.

I do understand what you say hon, I remember the post on the railing, I didn't answer it because I am not a gardener and I didn't know what to say. I am not sure if I answered the other one, but I have 3 days of my lot discussions I haven't gone through yet. I am one of those people that make a dollar and usually close to two dollars a day, and there are some topics that I can 100 posts for and others that I have to go and ask a friend to say something, anything just as long as they post to I can close the discussion.

Yes it has happened to me many times. I post something very interesting and get no comments and i post something stupid , i keep getting comments. Actually , i posted a discussion yesterday regarding alertpay hoping to get some responses but i got none. So here's my question : I got my paymeny from incomebux finally. But the problem is they have credited one dollar to my alertpay account instead of my paypal account. Now alertpay doesn't support india. So i dont know how to get my one dollar. I need some serious help on this one since i dont want to lose my hard earned one dollar. Hope i get some help here. Thanx for starting this thread. ~pinks~

I see some great posts with few responses and I also get some. I think, some people just don't have so much to say about discussions that are not linked to their own experience. I, myself, have little to say if I have not experienced the same thing. I must be able to relate to a discussion to be able to participate in it. Here's some of my recent discussions that have receive little responses. http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1454106.aspx http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1471542.aspx http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1479279.aspx Thanks in advance for your promised help. I'm already claiming it.

it happened to me once i posted a poll about being a vegetarian or asking for veg recipes and noone answered i guess they did not like the subjects sometimes i post things i am really into and need feedback when i dont get an answer it frustrates me

I am sorry Fismomma, I would have replied, but I don't know much about that subject. I also have not been on mylot much of the day, tring to make up for it now. lol Good Luck in getting help with the ideas you need ~Icy~

i think you have done a very generous gesture now. i am never able to get many responses for mine also. i think there are so many members and discussions are also so more. if the discussion is not that much catchy it does not so many responses.

Well, I do not really have any topic to post here in your discussion that I need help with. But your topic is very interesting that I can't help but respond. I do agree with you. There are times when you post a certain discussion under an interest with thousands or even tens of thousands of members but you end up getting few (or even NONE) responses to that discussion. I don't know. Maybe the other myLotians are not just interested in the topic at hand or they simply do not have anything to share. But that is really odd considering that they have those topics in their list of interests. My boyfriend has the same concern. He often tells me how disappointed he is that he gets very few responses to some of his discussions and gets more disappointed if he sees a not-so-interesting or a very basic topic with many responses. But I guess that's just how it is nowadays. Some people just look for questions that they could respond to with just a word or two just to increase their number of posts. Good luck my friend!

You are doing a good favor for all of us here. I do have lots of posts that had very few responses and though I feel a little bit frustrated about it, I know that I cannot really do much about it. I am sure that many members here would be very happy to know that someone like you would go out of your way to help. Good luck to you!

I am trying to be a better friend an comment more on my freinds I didn't see your post sorry

Sometimes people miss the good discussions and other discussions in general. With hundreds of discussions being started, commented on and rated, only a select number get the right amount of attention. Others get lost in the commenting process (I have 2 discussions that are simple but informative and have zero responses). Other times there are discussions that only get a few posts due to length, subject or attention span of users(some openly admitted these). For a couple of samples here are my discussions http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1360349.aspx http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1360501.aspx
