What Were the The Best Discussions Of This Year On myLot?

Someone from your part of the world put up a discussion about being sober etc for a year and that just got me thinking about how long and short a year can be. I think that anyone that can turn themselves around like that is truly inspirational. So that'd be my number one for this year.

Wow. I have been thinking in-depth about this question and I really don't think I am able to narrow it down to any select few to be honest! But overall, my idea of the best discussions are the ones where many people are interacting with each other at once and are kidding around a lot in parallel. Some of these new and bizarre interest groups have been generating a lot of this type of activity lately and it's been great! It is also inspiring when you see discussions on serious topics that generate a lot of ongoing debate/discussion as well.

That's great post but Opal, I am not sure as to the BEST one. There have been so many good threads, which one to choose. It's darn difficult! This reminds me, how about myLot selecting best discussions of the month and subsequently fr the year? That would have been fun, isn't it?

Hi Opal26, Oh for me it has got to be about the election as everyone was talking about it and discussions were getting deleted because they didn't people surporting one side it was a great debate and when Obama won it was massive effect the American people got I loved it and hearing for and against as well.

Hey Bestest Friend. I'm not sure one sticks out. Its just good to know that everyone s here, and you can come on mylot and not be judged (most of the time).To Know your mylot friends are gonna be here and give you advise that is only gonna help you. Its nice to know that you can have friends who don't care what you look like or what you wear or the kind of house you live in. That's what stands out most to me.

I'm sorry I've been thinking about this all morning and I just can't remember one, but I do know i like the ones that get me thinking, so maybe your's would be right near the top

I particularly like anything related to crafts that also offers new information. There were so many discussions of this nature throughout the year it would be difficult for me to just mention one. One particular member was kind enough to give me a lead about a new craft site that was opening. I do like to venture onto new websites that sell or buy crafts.

Oh that would be a difficult task. I am not capable ot picking up my own, let alone picking the best from the whole mylot. It is a mission impossible.

Oh, gee, I have no idea... couldn't possibly be one of mine.

I have not found one yet. Maybe there are too many good ones that it is difficult to come up with the best. Maybe mylot should do the job for us so that it is fair. We really can't judge with those who received the most responses as they have many friends on their list who responded. Maybe we can suggest it to mylot to pick the best discussion of the year so that the quality of discussions here will automatically improve.

This reminds me of a song called "The Impossible". haha There are so many good discussions on here and then you have the some that are just lame like, How is everyone today. I don't respond to all discussions and that don't mean they are good that just might mean they are way too good for me to try to respond to. I have learned some things on here. I do like when someone has a discussion about something really happy and exciting that has happened to them. Again, there is no way I can pick a best discussion, sorry.

I couldn't pay attention to the discussions all the time! There are lots of good discussions. I can pick the better one but the best! Have a great day!

I think I would go for a discussion on how mylot works, I have been a member of mylot this year and discussions like that is very helpful to me as I went on in here. I think that would be the best discussion to me categorically. In connection with this thread, I also feel grateful for those who have given their best opinions and honest respond to the discussions I have started since I was able to re think or have another perspective on things we been through, those I consider Best ever to me... Great discussion Opal !

I have to get back to you on this one, Opal. I have to go back and look through every single discussion I have ever responded too as I am too "modest" to mention any of mine.

None in particular come to mind but then again although I was a member, I was also an inactive one till towards the end of 2008. However I would have to say that the ones I found too be the most interesting where the ones where either someone was giving advice or maybe asking for advice. In thge first instance, I would have learnt something that I previously did not know, while with the latter instance, I think from my contribution I could/would have been of help to someone else through my own personal knowledge of the subject. Other discussions which I found interesting or useful were, after responding to a discussion, I leant that I should not have done so because the entire discussion ended up being deleted. While thay might not have been the most interesting discussions, they were certainly the educational ones. Even for a slow learner like myself - because I actually responded to 3 or 4 of them from memory - they did teach me to take care what I respond to. Of course we cannot always know which discussions will be deleted or which will stay but at least I know I should take more care and read the TOS again. It shall be interesting to see what 2009 brings in the way of discussions and already I have been able to respond to a few exceptional ones. I am only hoping that there will be more like those during the rest of the year, because I do enjoy it when I can also add something to my knowledge. Now Opal this is one of those interesting discussions I mentioned as it is not the a run-of-the-mill one and gives us a chance to think. As the end of 2009 is a long way off, I think I will have to keep a note of the discussions which really pique my interest during the year ... just in case you start another like this one.

What about the discussions on eating brownies..or goofing off with friends..or planning another party??? meowww purrrr

Hi my friend! I believe there are a good number of good discussions started this year at myLot. Most of those I myself have participated in. However it would be too long to enumerate all of them. But I would like to commend you for being one of those who have started many good topics and the best I should say is your topic entitled "Today i am one year clean& sober~what do you think about that?" I was really touched by your honest admission of your past struggle and victorious pronouncement of your one year celebration of being clean and sober after finishing your rehab treatment. I love testimonies about lives saved from the bondage of vices and addiction and I believe starting a topic like that is the best thing you've done because you won the admiration of many and gave encouragement to those who are still in bondage and would want to live a new life. Cheers!

i thought mine were, but a lot of people didnt think so, as they were what interested me. otherwise it would be hard to pick. yours and pyewackets seem to usually interest me because lots are about animals, games,etc. also a few others have been really good about animals. like goldeneagle, i think is his name. his are interesting about his love for cats.

Hi Opal, The only ones I can think of were the ones we had with cortjo and Big Brother. She started with Survivor but I haven't seen her for quite some time. I miss you. I need to send you an email soon. Have you seen Cortjo? I'll talk to you soon.Hugsssss leenie

I am like most of the others, Opal. There are way to many to even try to pick a best. Besides, I think that is rather subjective. My favorites have been the ones that lasted for days and days, whether they were serious or goofy. And, look, this discussion hasn't been a total bust, at all*S*
