is it fair?

I have no idea what makes people reply or not reply. I do agree that those discussions where someone is venting do seem to get lots of replies. Human nature I suppose, venting people always get lots of sympathy. As for me, I reply to those discussions that I see that I have some interest in, like this one :)

Sometimes it feels as if everyone is on vacation or break from MyLot. Many live in different countries around the world and post at times when you might not be online. Just work on building friends and nurturing your friendships. Don't be afraid to chat back and forth with others who come to your discussions. That way they will know you are friendly. Mylot is a wonderful community of talkative people! Enjoy!

I have noticed that there has been a decline in the number of discussions on mylot that I really feel compelled to respond to. I will add you as a friend and start reading what you post. Maybe we can get some responses going here. I have also had a hard time getting good topics to start discussions on lately. It seems like mylot as a whole is declining. I hate that it feels this way. I really enjoy posting here, and I want to see it make a comeback. I wish I had more time to post. Maybe things will pick up here before too long...

Hi Kerriannc, I am sorry you feel this way. I know how it feels, I had times when my discussion did not get answered. Not even one person bother to answer them. However it is changed a bit, I am getting a few common users who do answer my post. Though I post very little discussions, but when I do I am glad to say I get a few responses not 50 or more, but a minimum of 4. I am happy with 4 responses. I hope you find that more people are responding to your post as time goes by. Good luck

i also got that feeling before, while i was in my first month of being a member here. i find it very difficult to start new topics. and i find it frustrating when no one seems to be interested in my discussions. they told me find change the kind of discussions i have started so i made some experiments. although i still have no zero response discussions now, having a 2 or 3 responses already makes me feel better. i saw some of your zero response discussions, but i can't relate or i have nothing to share, so i just leave it. forget about that feelings of yours, just think more lightly as they told me. i switch on my notifications so i can always get notified when you have new discussions...

hi dear friend u know last two days i have not started any new discussion bcoz i have my alert on and my inbox was full of the new discussions my friends have started and so i went on answring and it went on non stop i also had to answer back on my discussion tht i had started and i spent 4 hours just sending out thank u and acknowledgements..i try and answer all discussions tht i can answer properly and understand well..sometimes my discussions also go with zero response and i also feel miserabl but tht is ok not necessary ppl will understand every discussion of mine......i have left a mango milkshake reciepe for u try it will make u feel good...have a nice day dear and keep posting..

Take it easy. When I joined here for a some time, my discussions didn't have a lot of replies, too. I didn't give it up. I continuously respond to others' discussions and meanwhile sometimes I will post my discussions. And as time goes by, my discussions have more replies. I love China

Certainly i have also felt in the same way friend.. there are friends who once in a while visit some our discussions, some friends come very often, and some never turn up on.. Even if i receive discussions it may be only in single digits.. and some of my discussions never go noticed.. the irony is the discussion that i count as a serious and important one..do evoke zero response..at times.. even now i have some six unanswered discussions.... I feel we must not pay attention to these things.. just go on.. and on..without looking back.. Take care friend.

I've been on here for three months and I'm not really noticing a change. Well, I do feel like I've begun to fit in a little more. And I'm sure people have recognized my avatar by now. But I see what your saying. I think it really depends on what people feel like answering. I know that some days I stick to mostly lighter topics just so I can breeze through them. You don't have to be a favorite or well known. All you have to do is wait, I guess. People will begin to find your unanswered discussion(s) and add to it.

Hi, you will get responses when someone finds it interesting and in his own interest. I saw your discussion with no response. I wanted to respond to it but since i don't know anything about it, i decided not to respond. expand your friends list to the interest you have started the discussin so that your discussion shows on their page. so better chance to get noticed. best of luck.

fairness is something very subjective. but hey, if you notice, more than 30 myLotters replied to this post already! This is great!

It depends. If you start a discussion as a general discussion then very few people will get to read it. Just the people you have accepted as friends. Get a discussion that has many people interested. Then of course, post something interesting or even controversial.

Well Kerriannc, it looks like you've gotten lots of responces for this post. I will add you to my friend list and respond to you all the time okay and you don't have to do the same for me:)

I think I can understand your feeling but I also want to say that you needn't to worry about these problems.Nobody can make sure that all of his discussions are responsed by others.What you are interested in does not mean others have the same interests.So just take it easy,if your discussions are real good ones,they will certainly attract the interests of others.If the discussions are not accepted by others,it should be the problem of the their content and needs your improvement.

i had been here for almost 2 years now and i still feel like you... most of the times when i create a post, i hardly receive any response or few responses... i have lots of friends in my friends' list but i can hardly get any response to my discussions... i stop asking myself and i don't care about that anymore... i just post and response and try to have fun here while earning... we can't force people to response to our discussions if they don't want to... so i just have to accept it and leave it at that... take care and have a nice day...

To be honest, this is my first time to read your discussions. Yeah, sometimes I also get zero responses. But then i don't take it personally. Maybe all we need to do id to also post an image to every discussions we made or even put a catchy title.

You should not feel left out because no one responds to your dicussion. Some people may find the discussion not that interesting, while someone else may. I have start new dicussion and sometimes I get a good responds and other times just a few will come in and I believe it's because some of us are tired, lazy or I don't know any number of excuses. I should feel so lucky to have at least a couple of people give feed back to my discussion.

I join in mylot about two month ago, I have little friend now. Everyday I just post and post, if I feeling bored I will stop post. I have post some discussion with 0 response also, I think that 's so many people post here, and ofter your post haven't be show on the first page, then the more and more post let your post on the second and thired page.

Wow, your number is 1123, and you are getting no responses. I thought I was one of the only ones, who receives no responses. I can start a discussion, and get no responses, but see the same theme for another discussions which could have many responses. I only have a few friends, and there is only one of them who will occasionally respond to my discussions. I do not think my discussions are pointless, but to each his or her's own. I'm giving you a positive rating on your discussion.

you can try and make things more interesting. stick to the topic you really know or your interested to know. dont feel sorry for yourself be a man!
