Is there anything you see frequently on MyLot that really annoys you?
There's one big thing that has really been annoying me lately. It's when someone posts a discussion topic under an interest, and another responds talking about the interest and NOT the specific discussion you started. For example, if I were to post a discussion under "chocolate" saying, "My boyfriend loves dark chocolate and I want to get him some for Christmas. What brands of dark chocolate candies do you recommend?" and someone responds saying, "I love chocolate! I eat it every day! I like it in brownies or with nuts in it. I also like chocolate ice cream!"
It makes me feel like they didn't even read my discussion at all! They just read the interest it was under and made a post about that! I see this all the time on MyLot and it really annoys me!
Does that annoy you to? What else on MyLot absolutely drives you crazy?

I hate when someone post a discussion and then other ppl repeat the same discussions over n over again. And some of them dont make sense. They write out a reason but not why they want to discuss...Very annoying. Or if you get discussions with just one line answer? Should be more explanatory then that!
Those that are arrogant, rude, sarcastic, insulting, and those who complain a lot. Others just feel that they are so good, they belittle others.

there are few things among all the good things here that annoys me. first of all i have seen many users add me as friend. then they start sending Pm to with link of various referrals. they want me to join under them. I do not like this attitude.

Well it does not annoy me at all to receive out of context responses...it only makes me smile and say: "Oh she this person did not read my post, or maybe he did not understand". Ha!ha!ha! At any rate who know who becomes like stupid in this kind of circumstance. Ha!ha!ha!
In my case what annoys me here at Mylot are topics which have been posted and discussed several times but still kept pouring in again and again. It annoys me because I have no patience anwering the same kind of topic more than once. Another thing that annoys me are impolite people who acts so bossy and arrogant. I've spotted few around and I can't really stand them.

i also annoyed like you when people does not respond to my discussion properly because they did not read my whole discussion... they just read the heading or the interest like you say... another thing that annoy me is when people make a post here without punctuation marks at all - no full stops, no commas, no question marks, nothing... it is just one long continuing sentences with one full stop at the end and i have to try really hard to understand what the poster is trying to say... it annoys me a lot because it takes extra time and effort to do that... take care and have a nice day...

I know what you mean, thats happened to me a few times, someone wrote a responds that had nothing to do with the discussion I wrote, but oh well I think that happens to a lot of us mylotters once and a while, but I try not to let it bother me much but I do agree that mylotters should take more time to read the topics before responding to a discussion.

Hahaha i know it's annoying answer to your discussions, yeah sounds like they really don;t understand your discussions. Sometimes you are really recieved those kind of answer because people here in mylot are sometimes rushing, so they just answer your discussions without reading it first. Relax and just enjoy, instead you feel annoyed just laugh on it.
In my case, only thing annoys me here, that if someone going to be rude in replying my discussions. Cheers.

Hitrickiwoo,
I didn't have such annoy things. People are quite nice, and willing to post their anwers to the discussion in mylot. I cannot log onto mylot frequently now because it is so busy now, but I still like here.
Thanks,
Vivian

Starting a discussion and only to find that some people just read the heading and not all what you are talking about, the next thing they will not get your point what exactly you are talking about, and endup responding with what i call "strange responses".
Like this discussiin you've started, someone might read the heading and respond by talking his/her computer not being able to use a certain browser to connect to mylot. thats kind like strange responses.
