Closing a discussion

Hi friendtam, I know exactly what you mean as sometimes I've just popped in and asked a question which needs a quick fix and once I have the answer I don't want it running on as I feel it is only right to still respond. You can't actually close a discussion but the way I handle it is to mark best response to the person who answers the question to help you, and do that immediately, then I type in each new responsers box after thanking them but telling them a solution has been reached that THIS QUESTION HAS NOW BEEN ANSWERED. This only works if the next respondee sees this but a lot don't read the responses above, and some won't answere as the BR has already been given. They do then tend to die off pretty quickly I find.

You Have Powers Only To Start A Discussion .. I think The Discussion Stays On Till Mylot IS Available On Net .. Only The Admin Has Powers to Overlook A Discussion .. May Be Take It Off .. This Is Normally Done When There Is A Violation Of Mylot T&C .. Well I Think I Am rght On this One .. Thank You ..

I apologize in advance if this posts twice. I typed and submitted my response but it disappeared :( Anyway, one of the great things about myLot is that we can ask questions and get answers or we can get opinions on problems or issues we may be having. It's terrific when we receive the solution we feel we need. However, this is a discussion forum - it's not simply a question and answer forum - so members should be able to continue or participate in a discussion for as long as they have something of value to add. While their contributions may not be of interest to the originator of the discussion, they may well be of interest to other members. It's not valuable to continue to post the same responses over and over, of course, but anything new should be welcomed. Bear in mind that, even though you create a discussion, you are not obligated to continue to participate in it -- naturally you would in order to keep it active but, if you feel you've gotten what you wanted from it, have perhaps chosen a best response, then you don't have to continue to comment. It's your choice when and where you participate. However, bear in mind that while you may be done with topic, others might not be and they should be able to continue to discuss for as long as they wish :)

Why should you close that discussion?It may be helpful for other members in the future and so it shall remain there for ever.On your side,just mark the best response and forget it for the time being.if anybody respond to it again you can comment on it,thereby helping him/her.Cheers!
