I have noticed when you are commenting discussion that have more than one comments ,you only see the original response to the discussion.As a result if you are responding to last response in such a multi-response discussion ,you have to read it first and then respond from memory because you wont see that response when click comment.So if their are three responses and you want to repond to teh third comment you wont see it when you click comment.----arrrghhh
I dont know the rationale behind it but I find it annoying at time.Maybe you could tell me why they do it like that and if you find other things that mylot could change to make our mylotting experience good

I notice that too as I was starting to use this site. Somehow I got used to it though. However, I would not mind any changes that are meant to improve usability.:)

it is true that we get used to it after having been dealing with it for some months. however, it is always better if a method can be devised wherein all the posted responses and comments are all displayed all at one time in the same page as we post a new comment to the response.
i can remember that there was a time when i had totally forgotten all about the point of the comment that i was about to construct. i was forced to get back to that page. i lost some precious efforts there, huh?

Yeah, I agree with you.I had this problem many times.Since I am a new member, so I can't copy paste now.For this reason, just for reading the comment, I had to go back, memorise and write the whole thing again.I remember one discussion of mine which had only 1 response, but 10 comments, and that too of 5-6 lines each.So it was a real problem commenting on those comments.

I have come through this problem so many times.In a string of discussions I always am at a loss as I am about to respond to the last one as only the first response shows in front of me.It makes me go back search and come back and by the time I alm0osttend to forget the sentences.It sure is a pain and Mylot can sure can find a way to alleviate it.Thanks for the wonderful suggestion.

i think they should tell us more about how they pay us and what scale are we on.it,s hard working and not knowing what we are making per post..there are some changes here that needs to be address for sure.

I definately agree. I'm new here and don't really know how this all works, but I would appreciate knowing a little bit more about pay. I guess it updates every 24 hours? It should be up to date as you post.

I missed this discussion some how. But I think this is a big problem. I usually copy and paste the comment I'm answering to into my browser, do my answering, and then delete the message. But, for people who don't have the ability to copy and paste yet, it is a big problem. I hate doing it my self. There should be another way to answer a comment that is way down in the multi-responses rather than having to copy it. And my memory isn't such that I can remember everything I want to answer to, if it's a long response.

i agree with you, ronnyb, that it will be a good thing if mylot does something about this. there are times when i have to take a rough note of that which i intend to respond with.
bring this matter to the attention of the admin so they can do something about this. they are very open minded about ways and means suggested to make mylot evern more user friendly.
it was suggested long ago if mylot can make a way wherein the user will be able to locate fast the response done to a discussion. this matters only when there are pages of responses to a discussion that get posted.

Hi ronnyb! haha..Great suggestion! Hope the mylot staff are reading this discussion you made. I do forget the response sometimes and will go back one page just to see it again, just to be sure that I had the right one so I can comment correctly to right respondent and the right response. haha..takes time really! And I would really want that idea that maybe they can upgrade the site and add that program or command or whatever term it is called. And the reason they didn't include is probably they didn't think about it! lol
take care and have a great day!

Yes, it is rather annoying! I now open the comment in a 'new tab' so I can flick back and read the other person's comment again... if I can't remember what it is that I am meant to be responding to

Yep totally agree, maybe they should do just one of those things where the response box is just at the end of the thread I know a lot of forums do that. But I've responded to a few things and I forgot what I was talking about because I got distracted, so I couldn't remember if someone else said something or not. I end up having to copy and go back then just paste what I already had and start from there.
