This is the question my friend who is a fellow mylot use to ask me whenever I chat with him.He joined here some 3 weeks back.He has no referrals and he use to say that people here in mylot are not responding to the discussions I start in any of my interests. I used to advise him that to respond more number of discussions and try to get new friends by responding to them.By this you can achieve your goal. What you think??? Happy myloting

Hi ramesh its one of the bezst idea but along with that your friend need to start some interesting discussion and quote it in a form which attracts others to respond in it.

When I was new too I had to learn the ropes. Now I pass on what I've learnt to others hoping it will help them too. Not only do I respond on other discussions but I also respond on a discussion started by all the users who respond to me too. Do you do that?

Maybe your discussions just don't interest that many people. That is what we all look for in a discussion, is something we have in common or we know the answer to your question. And some people don't answer if they have trouble understanding your english, too. btw: please don't request my friendship just because I answered your discussion. I have looked at your profile and I do not see anything there that I am interested in, sorry. Don't be offended. I only accept friends requests when I feel that I have something in common with the person, or they have posted in a number of my discussions or me in many of thiers.

I was very polite. I said Please, I said I was sorry in advance and I told you not to take offense, yet you CHOSE to, right off the bat regardless. There is your reason that nobody responds to your discussions. You could have responded back with politeness and you may have had a chance at frienship with me in the future at some point. But you blew it now. You are just TOO NEGATIVE!

Using the words sorry and please in between will not make to confess what you say.So you should not expected politeness for your response from me.But you did.You are just over estimating yourself.Please try to avoid this..

I think it is the luck of the draw.I have had discussions which I have not had one response.It is part of the mylot experience just keep at it.Don't give up just keep going I have noticed you pump out lots of discussions,so you must get quite a lot of responses you cannot expect to hit the spot all the time,like I said just keep at it.xxx

Hi, U r Right. First,'Give' ...& then 'Take'...is usually the Funda, anywhere. Let him enjoy forst giving responsible feedback on other's discussion & then he can also expect to receive those from others.... =Lahiri,Kolkata,India.

yeah i think that is good advice you have given. He should keep making discussions until one of them gets loads of responses. Could be just he is posting discussions at a time when people not responding much.

It's hard to find things to write about. You want to write at least 2 to 3 sentences but usually the question can be answered with just a few words. People need to ask more detailed questions.
