i WONT choose a best response - will you respond??

Honestly, I sometime felt bad when I gave my best shot and I did'nt give a respond or something, I felt better when someone did give me a positive ratings on although we have seen that (I think it is confidential), or the starter will at least appreciate or respond what I just have to say by responding or in agreement with what I say. Most of the times though, when the starter gives you the BR rate thats a wonderful thing, you felt proud and happy inside. On your case sri, if you won't give a best response, its fine, for whatever reasons would that be, its a personal choice, and I respect that, at least I know directly from you.

Sure. I don't really look at being chosen for best responses. When I get an email that I was chosen, I feel honored but I don't really mind because I will post when I like the topic.

Dear friend, I had already responded to this discussion and moreover if you put some good topics which I feel to respond I hope I may. On the other side to give or not to give best responds is entirely depending upon those who put that topic. Also I never respond to every discussion thinking that I have to get a best responds. But I could convey my part on that topic or that topic matter. If I get a best responds I hope it is another feather on cap as every movie is not taken for getting Oscar award but still they make movies. Every athletic do take part in races but some do hope to get gold and others take it as a game spirit.

Never really considered aiming for best response. Or even getting some little pluses by my name. I assumed the point was to get people talking, not to hand out shiny badges?

I never think of the best response, I would just like to share my views with others. I don't expect rating fro me. I will not even think about of the best response when I am responding. I will just respond to the discussion if i think I know something about and can share something with others. Till now I never think of it.

I would if you came with something not boring! LOL

i generally to not respond anticipating that i will get BR. i know its not possible all the times. also i have got very less best responses. still i answer

While it is very cool to get a BR, I don't respond just to get them, and I will respond to discussions that have already given out the BR. In fact I don't even check. As far as I can tell, the BR is mostly just an ego stroke anyway. It doesn't seem to affect anything else.

well, its true we all want a BR, but when we are responding, we have no idea whether the topic starter will select one. we respond anyways...... not everyone responds only for a BR....we can have fun even if our response is not voted. for example this thread
