I'm fairly new to mylot (I've been here about 2 weeks or so) and I always had comments to add to people's discussions. Now that I'm nearing my 500th post I've suddenly run out if steam. It's like I've had writer's block for a few days. Have you ever have times like this on mylot? Do you just take a break or force yourself to start discussions or post comments?

Hello Slyvixen, to start with it looks like you've been busy, I've been here almost a month and I'm way behind you. I know there have been times that I cant find anything to respond to or at least nothing comes to mind for the discussions that I do see. If its that bad, I dont think it would hurt you to take a break for a day or two. It would be better then getting totally burned out and losing interest. Cheers, Tianna

I nm also new here on mylot. I guessed there are times that people run out of ideas. To what he/she want to say. It is but natural. Sometimes, the discussed we want does not ring in our mind in one snap of a finger. And it took time. Let the topic sink in to your system. Before you knew it ,you'll never loose any idea.

Goodness! You have been busy! When I first started, I was all fired up too. After about two weeks when I hit 500, I slowed down a bit. They are paying much better now. So I don't have time to stop. I just keep going and write stuff. It usually just pops into my head. It's not hard to come up with.

Wow only 2 weeks and you are nearing 500th post. I have been here longer than that and look at how much i have posted. Just take a break , thats what most of the mylotters do i guess.

I was right where you are once. I didn't know what to answer at one point. I was becoming worn out from all of the serious topics and annoyed by the lighter ones. Now I just take them all in stride, you know? I get more energy from responding to discussions than posting my own.

Hi! You've done a magnificent job of posting so much in so little time. I guess, even I have been around here for about 3 weeks and still haven't crossed the 200th mark. I would suggest you to take it easy for some time and then start again. In the meantime, do not forget to respond to my discussions though, lol. :):)
