Do you like answering discussions that have a lot of responses, or looking through the discussions that haven't been responded to yet?
Sometimes I don't like answering the discussions that have had a lot of responses because I feel the user who started the discussion won't even read what I had to say.

Well for me it dosent matter if a discussion has or hasn't been answered yet, as longs as the topic is interesting, and by the way I usually read most if not all my responses I love to see what people have to say, thats part of the fun of mylot.
Happy posting.

i like the ones that have a lot of responses you can engage in a nice discusion. maybe not who started the discusion but those who answered

i prefer discussion of my interest whether it's has been responded too many times or not as long as I'm interested in the topic and express what I had to say, i respond to it. i don't think that the one who posted the discussion won't read your comment just because there has been so many, i would read all the responses in my discussion 'cause i'm interested in everyone's opinion. maybe some won't but i guess many would have so just feel free to respond on discussions that you'd like. every comment counts.

I always answer every single person that replys to my discussions. I see some have over 100 replys to them so it must be hard to answer them all.
We are not meant to give the same replies as others also, so it would take a while to read them all as well.
I have went onto the no replys a few times and tried to answer them as best I could because sometimes these are very awkward discussions.
Take care vanonas.

The truth is I dont think I have a preference ,it had depends on what I have to say about the discussion.
I will admit though that there has been times when I have passed over a discussion that has too many responses and gone for a less popular one,just because I want to give everyone a fair chance.

For me, it depends on what the discussion is about. If I feel that I have a lot to say about a particular topic, I will post on it regardless of whether it has many posts or not. I don't really take that into consideration when it comes to expressing my opinion. =P
It's true that discussions with less responses are easier to get recognized on, but that doesn't bother me that much. I'm replying to the question posed by the starter, and it doesn't matter to me which page I'm on. If I have a discussion with many responses, I'll read all of them because the responders took their time and effort in writing an answer, and I feel that other people could read my response in their discussion to do the same for me - although there's no way of telling whether they do or not. =P
For me, like I said before, the most important part is what the discussion is about and if I think I'm able to make a worthwhie contribution to it. If not, I will just read a couple of people's responses and move on.
