Everybody like to have a company of friends to share their special moment and listen to.How do you feel if nobody responded to your discussion topic?.How often is your discussion topic not responded? How do you feel if your discussion reply is less than what you expected?.

I have pages of discussions which haven't been answered to, it happened more so when I first joined Mylot, I can't even award best responses because no one has replied to them, I can't even delete them, so they sit idle unless someone finds them but that is hardly likely, but it doesn't bother me to be honest. I never take it as a disappointment or take it to heart, it happens! Maybe it was a subject that no one could add to or maybe it just got lost amongst thousands and thousands of other discussions!

That is a good attitude to have. I was fortunate to not have too many like that, because I quit starting them until I got some friends. About a year ago, or more, a friend and I took care of those no responses. With the number of discussions I have now It would be impossible to find them. I like to look at the no response ones from time to time. I think when myLot was new, old unresponded discussions earned more when answered.

Hi Wolfie34,That's the opposite from what I'm getting.I got about 10+ reply on my first few discussion.I was overhelm and happy from what I'm doing.Somehow I slow down my usage on myLot recently due to tie up with my blog and it seem like my popularity has dwindled.Nowadays I only get 2 to 3 replies. I do agree sometimes the subject of discussion play a role on getting reply.Seem like you did not quit myLot after all and instead persisted using myLot.I'm glad you're rank among the top now. Have a nice day and happy mylotting :)

It is kind of depressing when no one responds but you never know when a discussion will be a hit or not . You may start one expecting to only get an answer here or there to find everyone is answering and find it in the top discussions and you may start another one expecting to get all these responses only to go back and check and find you only have one or two so I believe that all in all it is best just to keep trying . You never know when someone may come along and answer your discussion and bring it back up and end up with more discussions then you had and bringing it up to the top discussion . There always is the chance that you will have all or more responses then you thought even if it ends up sitting there for a year . I am lucky because I have some referall on here and they try to make sure they answer everyone one of my discussions so I don't have the fear that no one will answer but I do have some that they were the only one's who answered and although it would have been nicer to see more responses at least I know I tried and that is all that matters lol .

I am happy if I have just one response to my discussion, because that is what makes it a valid discussion. It has been a long time since I have had a discussion with no responses. As I have added more friends and built a reputation for good discussions and RESPONDED to discussions others have started, so that my name is known I have had more and more responses. I like about twenty responses, and feel like that is a good number to manage.I hope you stick with it here and find out how much fun it is.

I do not know if they still do, that was over two years ago. I think perhaps because it took more thought to answer. I should do an experiment one day and see what I learn about it, or if it looks like it does pay higher. I do a lot of myLot experiments.

I have not had this experience of late. When I was new there were discussions that I started and nobody responded to them. But now I get quite a lot of responses. I guess it is disappointing when no one responds to your discussions!

Dont get disappointed Henryjoe! All of us experience this when we are new. It is after we are here for some time and make more friends that we start getting more replies! In a couple of months you too will start getting more responses. Till then try reading others discussions and responding. Anyway you are paid for that too! There are many here who do not start discussions at all and just keep responding to others discussions and are very happy with that!

Hi mayka123, Yes it's quite disappointing and sad not to receive replies.Guess I'm lucky on my first disccusion,I got about 10+ replies. Seem like now,my popularity has dwindled,worst case is 2 to 3 replies.Maybe my discussion topic is not popular or maybe not enough friends support?.Anyway thank you for your reply
