Why not help MYLOTTERS with "no responses" to their discussions?

That's a good point, krupesh, and I am doing that. I don't respond only to friends, but also to newbies and those discussions with no response,although some discussions there are difficult to respond to as some topics are not within my learning experience and understanding...nice day.

I do that to after i responded to my friends' discussions and I still have time to spare.

Saviour-V teleports in... Well, here's a response from me to you. Thing is, like you said, there's a lot of discussions with no responses. Heck, I've got a few meself. If you like, do feel free to spam my discussions. I could use some responses. Saviour-V grins, and teleports out...

You make a good point, what people on mylot needs to understand is that every member on mylot should be just as important as their friends here. If a person was to sit down and think about it,how many of your "friends" do you really know? Should they be any more important on mylot than the rest of the members? I agree with you, some discussions are not worth responding to, but there are a lot that are.

if i find some interests of these discussions,i`d like to response;)from the firdt days i met mylot,i tired to learn how to think out some better discussions,i know it is not too hard. i`ve some such "zero" response discussions,but only two or three.if you are a newbie in mylot,you should learn which discussion can get people in common.that`s the point. by the way,i think i`ve learned fast:)

I've actually started to do that. I mostly start doing it once I'm on here and nothing new has popped up on my interests yet. I find not only are we helping members that are just joining, but its a great way for me to find new interests to add as well.

I think its a good idea, I have always been checking the section with no responses so that I can at least respond to some of them. But there are also those who starts discussions just for the sake of being able to post something. I hope they will not take advantage of our good intentions to help those who are newbies (like myself)

Yes I do agree with you, and I often go check out these no responses.. Many of mine are there... And some of these topics are very lame and others are very good topic just not worded very well. So I for one will start spending more time here, and hopefully others will do the same, team spirit I am not on here very often, I will try to come in daily from now on..I have only $1.10 so far so yes I could use a little support also

I do help out the newbies by responding to the no responses, in fact that's where I look first when I go online.

I agree with you. I will surely do that after this post. And by the way, thank you for your good suggestion.

Hi Krupesh, I go through the 'no responses' looking for discussions; however there are times when I can't find anything interesting, or I am unable to respond when I don't know much about the topics, or like you said, quite a number of the discussions are repeated.

Thanks for this reminder @krupesh. You are right. There are lots of interesting topics in the "no responses" board. I always visit that section to answer some discussions that I can relate to. I never regret doing so. Aside from being the first to respond to a discussion, I am also rewarded with best response in some of them.

I try to go once a day when I'm working on Mylot and answer a few "no responses" and "new user" threads. It's difficult to tell which ones will break TOS, so sometimes I am a bit hesitant to respond until someone else has who has been around Mylot a bit longer than I have. Though, I do agree we should be helping each other out, and if someone is breaking TOS, a friendly pointer might help them even if in an email so that they know what to avoid in the future. And if they aren't breaking TOS, then it's helping them to be successful. The book I'm currently reading for my class is focusing on helping other's shine, and I think this is something we can do in the online world as well. I mean, it helps us as well. There is an old book called The Science of Getting Rich in which the author shares that a rich man once said "I become successful when I help other people become successful", and there is great wisdom in that. Thank you for reminding us on Mylot to be considerate of other's success on here. Namaste-Anora

I tend to agree with you on this one. I myself, make a point of checking out the discussions with no responses and do try to respond to as many as possible. With limited time free, I can't respond to many. I'd recommend other mylotters do check out and answer the no response discussions when possible. Good idea.

I always do so. You are right in the sense that there are many which do not merit a response, but I always search thru the 2nd or 3rd page and do find some which are worth writing some sentences on. Its a habit of mine to go thru 'no response' and 'new users' everytime I login here.

i had been trying to do that before but even though i have tried my hardest still its not enough to find my will to do it. i find it really hard to respond to a discussion i really cannot relate myself with. but anyway i will try again and this time im hoping to succeed because i would really wanted to help them. im not good in making discussions too thats why i focused myself on responding. anyway happy mylotting!

I try that once in a while and usually there are no responses for a good reason. I have responded to the odd one however. It seems to me that I cannot babble on about something I have no interest in, just for the sake of a penny or two. I don't think it is a matter of being a newbie either, that is unfairly characterizing as newbies as being incapable of posting coherent and meaningful questions. I do agree however that newbies should be encouraged (as well as the rest of us).

I always look at the no responses discussions after I check out the ones from my interests, I love being the first person to reply to a discussion! It also helps the newbies get in touch with the community and hopefully stay! :)

I usually end up doing nothing but replying. I enjoy going all of the different titles and checking out what people are saying. I think some of the less replied to posts are sometimes the best. I prefer the light subjects and random thoughts.

I also encountered some situations like that, im still new but whenever i start participating in discussions i try to respond on some discussions that doesn't have any responds or few responds. I think your idea here is great since this will encourage more of the newbies to post and be part of discussions they made as well as others discussion have been made. This way, would also help the community to be more active.
