Do you feel Sad when you see your discussion with zero response

I have gone through many discussions at my lot that Some people are frustrated on the issue that their detailed discussions do not get responses they expected and many casual discussions are flooded with the responses. Now when I have already devoted about two months at my lot and I feel that it depends upon the taste of the members who are on line to respond. Some time when old members are on line and they respond to the detailed discussions which are lengthy. I also feel that generally the people avoid lengthy discussions to read as some time to understand the main idea of the discussion one has to go through twice to make up mind to respond. I feel some time sad when I do not find responses to my discussions and there is no option than to console myself.
What about yourself do you also feel sad in such a situation or you do not bother about it. Please discuss and comment.

Yes, of course I do feel sad. I feel like I spared some of my time doing up that discussion and nobody will response! It would be really disappointing. And to see that people don't care about the topic you did would be worse.

Normally I don't look back my discussions with how many of responses. My purpose in Mylot is to share my stories with others,if there is no one sharing opinion in my discussions,maybe they don't have the same experience as me. I think there are several reasons why some discussions with zero responses.Lol.

I don't say I'm necessiraly sad, but I do get disappointed sometimes. Especially when I thought it was a pretty good question. I don't let it get me down or anything. I just keep on posting. Eventually someone will answer it (hopefully) and if not then, oh well.

I am sure all of us do, non of us want to see something we have made not being accepted by others. I have only been on mylot for a few days now, and i have already found some tricks, all you have to do is find a subject that everyone can relate to and something that is easy to answer but not as simple as yes or no. So you have to balance out your quetions so that they are not directed at a certain age group or a certain type of person. If your discusion does not get any posts, and it happens once, you get used to it but sometimes if it keeps happening you just want to know why no one has answered, This i'm sure buggs most of us.
Have a great day and happy MyLotting!

Oh I feel that way too. I wrote a discussion on Weeds that no one responded to and I felt really bad that not even one of my friends on my friends list bothered to respond too.
I figure they know nothing about weeds so thats why they ignored it.
I even listed it under the Gardening category. Figured there are people who like to garden who would know about this subject.

I also feel disappointed when I don't have any responses to my discussions, but that's alright. If it was any other message board or forum, and believe me I have many enemies there that I don't want to name any of them, i'd be truly let down about it.
However, look on the bright side: I get paid either way.
Remember, this is MYLOT, and even with no responses, if I created a topic, I still get paid for it! Responses or not, I will still recieve my earnings for what topic I create. That's the beauty of MyLot.

I do feel sad! Especially when it's a discussion I think people will really like and really want to say something about! And I feel especially bad when I ask a question that I really want an answer to... and nobody responds!
Although usually, most of my discussions with 0 responses do get responded to eventually... even if it's months later! That always makes me really happy! So try not to get too down! Whenever you're feeling down about a discussion with 0 responses, go look at your discussion with the most responses! That should cheer you up! And who knows? In a few months, someone might post a first response to that discussion!

Yes, I do get sad. But, I just will move on and still post until I get responses from another discussion. When I don't get any responses to an discussion I make, I feel that this is telling me that my topic may not interest others, as I thought it would.. Or members are just not interested in answering my discussion. Or it could be where they have no knowledge to my discussion..

I don't feel sad, but it is a little disappointing to see a zero response to one of my topics especially if you put a lot of thought and effort in to posting the topic and really wanted to know the answer to the post, but I just try to move on and hope that my next topic will spark more interest.

Yes, of course i feel sad when i only get few respond for the discussion i started. I have few discussion with only 2 respond and I'm very sad about it. I saw people with 20 or more respond and I'm so envy.
I know what i have to do is start more discussion that will attract more people. Have to learn more, i guess.

Yes especially when it's something that's important to me. I see that "what color do you like", "what's your fav movie", or some other nonsense get a ton of replies.
Mind boggling is what it is.
I guess I could get really creative and make up some crap to get responses but I can't. I keep it simple and to the point.
