unlogical best responses?

For some kholid but not for all. Many can see beyond that Have fun!

a friendship can make a conspiration here. Isn't it? maybe it just like some kholid as mysdianit said thank you

Hey kholid78, nice avatar... Friendship is another thing and the best responses are the other thing. This thing should not be brought in mind while selecting the best response. Its like giving marks to the students by the teacher on the basis of his favorite students...That is unfair... Yes, it is a very sad thing. I hope the friends reading this threat, who do the above thing will be aware in doing such things, looking at this thread... Thanks for your response...Happy mylotting...

Hello mysdianait!!! how are you? It is very true that rewarding a BR is very personal, and is not constricted to any rules by Mylot. I too do the same. I select the best response, which I feel the best, that's all. I know we can do nothing about those discussions, but rather than this, I wanted to know how do you feel looking at such discussion. Don't you feel bad when you see them? happy mylotting

All is fine here thank you! No I don't feel bad about it at all. Whenever I respond I don't do it with the intention of saying something in the hope of receiving best response myself ever. I say what I think is appropriate and I do whether the BR has already been awarded or not. It does remind me a bit of when Iwas at school though. Everyone wanted to be 'in' with certain others. That happens here too and I see users giving a response just because a certain personwas on their discussion even thought what was said in the response was not worthy. I move on, just like I did at school. I have other things to get on with rather than stop and think why so and so did such and such and whether it was right or not - live and let live! Though I probably would not be seen on more discussions by that user if it was so obvious that however anyone elses response may have been more worthy, they were never going to be likely to receive it because that is the way that certain user does things

Like you, I too just respond and don't really think of getting the best response while giving the response. I get surprised and happy to see in mail, that someone has selected mine response as the best response and I go on to check where did I got the best response. And then only I feel like hmm, my response was really nice and it encourage me to write even nice. It has happened that though the user has selected the best response already, though illogically, I have responded the same way as I do in other posts. But it really strikes my mind once. Go on mylotting mysdianait!!! You see to be very happy mylotting...Keep it up

Hello sanuanu!!!! How to set the notifications. I have never done that. Is there such feature here in mylot or you talking about personal mail? Well when the response touches my heart, then I would select the response the Best, there is not doubt. There are also such threads I have created where the I can't distinguish which one is best and to choose one as the best would be like to discriminate other. So I leave such discussions unresolved. Well I feel its better if someone don't select the best response at all, instead of selecting them illogically. And again, like you said, some one don't need to write 50 line response to get the BR, it must be qualitative and heart touching too. But there are so many BR selected randomly. Okay!!! I hope I will touch your heart one day for sure with my response and don't hide your heart that time lol... Thanks for your response... Happy mylotting...

Oh!!! I didn't know that...Ok I am going to set it right now...

Practically speaking, there are very few people who actually care if their response get chosen or not :P There is an existing discussion on: do you respond even when a best response has been chosen? Majority of the members who participated said that they don't really care if a BR has been given, they still want to share :) I guess with that in mind, those who "unlogically" choose an unfitting best response don't think that it would affect their discussion negatively :)

Hello oyenkai!!! Yes if you see from that perspective, from the view of getting more response in the discussion from friend that is fine. But you have forgotten, that can instead of increasing the participation in the discussion, it can decrease the number of responds in that discussion. There are some to the discussion where people choose the best response within an hour and which is selected for a friend. And now, do you think he/she will get more response in that thread? Definitely lower than it should have... I don't think there is any bonus for the best response. yeah...some people might think that. After all we don't know the calculation of mylot earnings... Thanks for your response...And sure, I will come to your discussions again and again... Happy mylotting...

Well it is true that when there is something to share, people share it though the best response has already been chooses. Yes I too don't care that my response is chosen best or not. I would be responding about 10 discussions and day. And sometimes, I get lucky to see a notification regarding the best response. I don't expect it but when I get it, it makes me happy. I hope you feel the same regarding this. It is fine and there is nothing to say if the best response is chosen already for a nice one and still I respond. But when I see the one with best response already chosen which are illogical, or that is chosen within the hour of start of discussion to a friend, I don't feel like to respond. Though I have hesitated a bit, I have surely responded many times lol.... Thanks for your opinion oyenkai...happy mylotting...

Yes it is very true that there is no bonus for getting the best responses. It is just an extra feature of mylot to keep us encouraged. And so I feel it the important feature of mylot that one should utilize even thought it does not really provide the bonus for it. Thanks for responding back...

Hello Krajibg!!! In my case too, there are still many responses unresolved since the months. There are some discussions where the selecting of the particular best response is a difficult thing because every response seem to be similar. In such case I leave the response unresolved. And to select one as the best response seems to make the partiality, so I feel it better to leave it unresolved. I may have also selected the one lined response as the best response it is really nice, inspiring and to the point to the context. Yes sometimes, a single line can be too good than the rest and I won't hesitate selecting them as the best response. Like you I haven't selected any yet, but I won't hesitate to select it when it deserves. It is a nice thing that you also don't select the best response on the basis of friendship. And still there are some who do this. But you and I can't argue as it is a complete personal choice and it is their right too. But more than this, I wanted to know how you feel regarding this case and thanks for sharing your feeling regarding this. Happy mylotting.

Hi, I can well understand your concern. It really looks odd when you see the response selected as best. I have done research sort of earlier but now I do not do. If I really feel any response is really catchy and interesting I select or else I leave it as it is. Besides there is no bonus as such for getting a BR and the admn has nothing to do with the selection process. Hence better do my job.

The negotiation factor is also a good point which you raise and that does happen. I have seen newer users barter for BRs in their discussions and that should not happen. But if you tell them it is wrong they then could do it in PMs so I have never mentioned it. I let it slide. Some things are just not important enough to make feathers fly (while others definately are ) Hiya Mathhs!

Yeah funny...They may see the logic in the illogical responses. Everything that belong the the people you love seems to be loving to you. May be that's the fact beyond selecting the best responses on the basis of the friendship. I think more than this, some best responses are also selected on the negotiation like, you award me a best response and in return I too will reward you with a best response. This is even bad thing... Thanks for your interesting response... Keep mylotting...enjoy

It confuses me, does it make them happy to get best response is such a way funny!!! I wont feel happy getting best response by requesting a friend to do so, because it has no any value at all. But I am always happy to get a best response when other people think my response is best and award be for that. Don't you feel so mysdianait. Don't you feel happy when you see the notification of best response in your mail?
