Has this ever happened to one of your discussions?

Isn't that cool whiteheather! I have had old discussions I had forgotten about resurface before but none that old! Once it has been picked up by one person it gets brought back to the fore and could become very active again! Hugs hen xxxx

Hahaha! So pleased this happened to you too! Recently several users have been helping out others by responding on discussions with no responses no matter how olde they were. This brings them back to life even if they are very, very old and they appear in the column on the right 'similar discussions'. When other users see them there then they might go and respond too. In that list there are discussions, any discussion, that have been posted at any time at all and this is probably what made yours come back to life. It's fun and very rewarding to have older discussions get a new lease of life and I hope it will happen to some of your other ones too. Happy Lotting!

These old discussions pop up under the "Similar discussions" list at the bottom of the pag sometimes. These are located by keyword and come up automatically.

yes because when an old discussion is responded to, it jumps up to the top of the list of your discussions and when that happens other people see it so they respond to it. It has happened to me several times.

Hello Friend It does happen to me as well Many things have changed since the discussion and I almost hate to go back there but I do appreciate getting responses. xoxoxoxo

I never imagined that a discussion as old as yours can get a response. Anyway not only you but many of us are also pleasantly surprised by this. As for me, I am not that old, only being here for about ten days. So I can't say, but I do get response of those thread that i started on the very first day of joining here.

This happened to me the other day pal , It was one I had written some time ago about Red nose day , IT WAS red nose day this year they found it :) , So that was a bit easier . Nice to read old ones though :0 Wee xx

yes I have done that. It some that go thru our discusions and see one the want to comment on

When I respond to a discussion, I always wait till it appears on the thread. When you are on that page, to the right are groups of similar discussions. Now I've answered a few of those only to find that they are indeed years or months old, not current at all. I think it's great because a couple of mine have re-surfaced as well.

Yes, I have had that happen. I think it happens when someone answers a discussion, and they look at the bottom where mylot lists similar discussions. At least that is my own theory.

Yes, I have seen that happen. It has not happened to any of my discussions but I have seen it happen to other's discussions. I suppose the topic would come up as a similar discussion. It would be listed at the bottom of the page. I like to look at some of those discussions myself. They can be very interesting. It is nice to see topics I might have missed.

Oh yup--that's happened lots of times with me, and sometimes it's a discussion that at the time had a lot of fire and passion about, but re-reading it's like huh? So I have to get "into" that frame of mind again. The only thing that can explain this though is people might actually hunt our profiles to look at our old discussions..with me that's a LOT of pages..LOL

I know the feeling when a topic that you started from way back then comes to life specially if they don't have any responses at all. My first discussion was responded 6 months after I started it by 2 valuable friends. That made my day and I just feel so happy! Whenever I get bored here at Mylot and don't find any discussions that interest me, I go over my friends' profiles and search for discussions that interests me. Sometimes I use the search bar to search for topics that I like to respond to even if they were started years ago. I learn that no discussion is too old to respond to. You also earn from participating in them.
