I'm making discussions, but I'm not getting any responses. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. I've edited my lists several times, but can't figure out what else it would be. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

I am new too, and I found that people, at first tend to answer discussions where they don't really have to put together a long answer. I have posted diferent kinks of discussions and the most "serious" ones have gone unanswered. I hope I will get answers later on. My advice would be practically the same as the ones posted before. Make friends, respond to other discussions and to the answers on your own, and give it time.

I agree. And I like more serious discussions, too. I'll go check some of yours out.

So many people ask the same questionw hen they start here. When you post a discussion, it goes to the main page, well lately there have been way more people starting discussions rather than answering them. Instead of you new dicussion hanging out on page one for awhile it quickly gets pushed to page 5+ and gets lost in the shuffle. To help with this use tags on yoru discussion and also post in topics in your list. Don't worry too much because people do respond to the discussions with no answers.

Aw I'm sorry you're not having any luck! Having friends does help a lot. And I've made a whole bunch of discussions that never take off, and others get more responses. I guess it's partially luck, partially interest in the topic. Try and check if there are other discussions on the topic you want to start. If there are, think of something else! ^^ Good luck!

Don't be worry. It's normal! Specially if you discussion is a serious discussion and need to think about or to write a bit longer answer. A lot of people, here on MyLot, like quick and easy discussion with quicker (if it is possible) answer. If you ask something "where are you from?" or (that's one of the best) something about "blue or red" you will receive a lot of answer. Obviously you have to like questions like that. Do n ot forget to tag in the right way your discussion. It can help.
