Hi Mylotters!!
I was just curious..
In fact I do the same thing. I prefer giving positive rating to all the the people,who participate in a discussion created by me. Honestly speaking,its not possible to thank all by posting comment. Its because my internet speed is very slow. 
I also give positive rating to some discussions,which I think,it fits!!!
So,how about you all???Do you rate all the responses you got on a discussion started by you??Do you rate certain discussions???Do you post comments to all the responses you receive???
Be free to post your views....
Happy Mylotting!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi, yes I always rate positively people who comment on my discussions given that they are appropriate and not some spam. And like you I also rate people whom I like their discussions or comments. I also make sure to comment on replies I receive and after some time choose the best response for my discussion. I have recently read in mylot guidelines that you cannot just comment on all replies with 'Thanks' or that it does not increase your rating. I don't mind though but I still want to thank those who replied and add my comment to what they said.
Have a nice day!

Hi Dolphin!!
I also do the same thing... I try to comment on as many post as I could..
But I have heard that it is not allowed to rate all the discussion. It is against Mylot rule...So,its better not to do.
Thanks for the participation.
Wish you a Happy Weekend ahead.

If someone answers you on mylot, you are supposed to rate the response. If you get a lot of positive ratings, then the number in the star will increase. If someone gives you a bad answer, you rate them as negative, because it was a poor answer. Hope this helped.

we almost have the same answers as you had mentioned first before your questions . however, there are responses which seemed to be pasted wrongly as a response and that doesn't receive any ratings from me. also, the rude responses goes unrated. they're a waste of time to even rate negatively.

I try to rate all of the responses in my topics, but sometimes I just forget. Usually when I go to comment on a response, I will decide if it is a good or bad response and rate it then. I try to keep up with the ratings because I think it is important for all of us to strive to get a ten!

Yes i do rate my responses with positive ratings. Because giving negative ratings has no point at all. Besides, this site is focused on giving opinions so negative ratings are not likely used, i guess. In every discussion we post, there are no correct and wrong answers so i respect people for their views.

I do rate all responses to my discussions with one exception. If a response doesn't really add anything to my discussion or address it in any way, I won't rate it at all. I rarely give a - unless the response is really mean spirited and rude. I almost always give +.
Every once in a while I will come across a discussion that is truly extraordinary and deserves a +.

I definitely rate every response to my discussions. It's the least I can do. It takes no time at all. I also read all the responses, if not reply to them all. It would be impractial to respond to each one. I actually rate anything I read. If it is someone else's discussions and I read a comment posted above mine, I rate theirs too.

I always try to give everyone who respond to my discussions or posts a plus sign if the response is on topic...I hardly ever rate anyone negatively,but lately here on mylot their are some that are rating people negatively causing their star rating to drop it happen to me yesterday when i logged in my star rating was down from a 7 to a 6.No,i don't respond to all posts to my discussions.

I try to always rate other people. I don't like to give out a negative rating, but some responses are just terrible! You know that the person wasn't even reading the topic. In those times, I feel bad, but I hate to see other users getting paid the same per response when they didn't even think about the question asked.

Yup, I try to rate all respondents positive, even if I don't have the time to reply to everyone. It is very, very seldom that anyone gets a negative rating, unless that person is really out of line (rude, crude, nasty.....)

yeah. of course i do gave BR if i think his/her response is really good and fits to my discussions. and also i do gave positive rate for some responses too. but honestly not all the time. and also if i can see it that they have a lot of posts but then their star is still in 4 or 5 ill give them positive so that their star will increase too

Normally, I donot rate all the responses that I get for my discussion. Because, I may get one line reply or a two with proper solution for my discussion. Some may send their response in a big paragraph without any connection for my discussion. So, I read all the responses, and I give the best response. But, I give comment for all those who responds to my discussion..

Most of the times i do. You just reminded me to rate all or atleast most of my responses - LOL. I think it is a mutual way of getting benefited as this helps in adding value when it comes to earnings. But i wish mylot had a neat system where you can actually see the discussion where you were rated positive :)

That sounds fair to me! I try to only rate positively, but there are some users that constantly spam these boards, and I feel like if all of us rate it as negative or flag it, then this type of behavior will be stopped, and maybe we could start being paid more!

Hello there, I only give positive rating to responses that are interesting and relevant to my discussion topics. I tried my best to comment on all responses. But some of the responses I get is like yes and no response which I don't know how to comment back to them. Sometimes, it really get tiring just commenting on responses. Cos I also want to participate in other members' discussion topics as well. So, it may take me a few days to comment back on the responses. Cheers =))

I really wanted to but sometimes I forget to rate. But when I really like the message or the reply of the person, I will immediately rate it even if he or she is the only one responded to my discussion.
Keep posting. Have a nice day.
best regards.
Jeff
Thats why,I do it straight away,after reading the post.

Hi, tuyakiki. I am in a situation very similar to you. My internet connection is also slow. But, i still prefer to comment on others` responses to my discussions, partly due to it is not that difficult for me as it may be for you coz i don`t start many discussions as you do.
If i feel the response is really contributive, i rate is positive. by the way, i never rate negative.
Happy Mylotting!!

honestly at first i love to do that, give postive responses and just stay quite for the unrealistic and almost nonsense response but as time passes.. i was just having much fun to read most responses and doesn't have much time in rating..
anyway thanks for the reminder. i maybe been into task too much.
try to do it again..
