We all post lots and lots of responses in a day at mylot. Few of them may be selected as the best response of the discussion. Three of my responses were selected as the best one yesterday. That makes me very happy and it also encourages me. How do you feel when your response is selected as the best one by the user? Also how do you react to it? Do you acknowledge for it. What would be your feeling when yours is selected as the best response of the discussion?

I'm not qualified to make the best response so far, so I don't know what to say or what feeling I would have if I made it...

Well I feel happy and fulfilled when someone marks me as best response. I feel that I have answered that person's question whenever I get a best response. Also it helps me get into the mood in answering more discussions in mylot whenever I receive best response.

Well I take it as I either gave information that was useful, or I said something that made them laugh or smile, or give them hope. It makes me feel good inside that I did one thing right during the day. I always try to make sure I go back and say thank you.

[i]Hello smilyn, I feel good to get a best response on a discussions. It's not as great as it was when you recieved your first best response but it is still a great feeling knowing you hit the right mark on which the poster of the discussions is looking for. It means you said the right thing and say it well at that time of the discussions. I don't usually go back to the discussions where I get the best response to acknowledge it. Knowing that you have one is already great. Maybe when I have some time I'll go back and acknowledge it and appreciate the best response given to me. Have a good day and may you recieve more best responses here.[/i]

I always get flattered when im mark best response, but sometimes I don't since i know my response isnt that good and didn't gave my best shot. But you never know maybe it was the best on the person and still grateful for it.

yes, we just pour our thoughts and views. When the user feels that it was what he expected, the response is selected as the best. I always give my best, so I'm happy with the best response rating.

I feel elated. Very happy. Being on the other part of the world from most mylot users, I'll be sleeping, when they are active. And that way, I get to see if I have earned a best responses, early in the morning. As soon as I get up, I check for mails from myLot. And If I have a best response in it, then it makes me feel very happy, and I work better to get some more. It's like an award and makes me feel better and makes me feel deserving. bourne

in my book, my responses are the best responses in all the discussions i've joined here at mylot. regardless if the thread starter agrees with me or not. lol! just kidding. getting a best response is indeed a feather in our cap but ultimately, its the chance to share my ideas and to read other ideas that give me the greatest satisfaction here in mylot, not the pencil next to my name that denotes that my post was the best response in that particular discussion. just my 2 cents. cheers!

I was wondering about that myself, I've gotten a few best responses also, but I didn't know if I should go and thank them or what. It makes me happy when I get one, and I also think that when we do get one, that we should get some kind of points or something like that, thats what I think, because its hard to get a best response and it doesn't happen often, thats my opinion anyway. Keep up the good work...

I too do not know if we can thank the user for that. But still I send a note to them.

I guess I feel quite happy if mine is selected as the best response, especially happy the first time I got one. If the person is on my friends list, then I will message them saying thanks, if they're not, I will go back to the discussion and response and say thanks there. Congs on the three yesterday! Keep up the good work!

I feel happy when my discussion get's best response. I do try to go back through and thank the ones that do this for me and for anyone that I haven't gotten to thanking I want to take the time now to thank you. I do my best to try and read the discussion and think about the discussion befor I leave my respons. I think it is very important to do this. When I leave a response I want it to come from the heart and really mean what I say. I am like this in my everyday life with friends and family also for that just how I am a careing type of person that will go that extra mile just to make someone's day.

I would feel very happy when someone has selected my response as the best one. So far only two of my responses being selected as the best responses. Of course,because of the selection, it has given me more motivation to keep on responding to discussions in Mylot. It has been great when someone appreciate what we write. Happy posting,and enjoy the day.

There are chances for your response to be selected as the best one when it is of high quality. ALso try to post the response in relevant to what the user wants to discuss. My best wishes to you to get a best response rating very sooner.
