Before respond to a discussion, sure you will be read completely the topics. Often, you are the first member who respond the discussion. You maybe the third or fifth member. You may see the others responds which made by the others members. Do you always read their response too or just let them away?
Sometimes I read others response when I didn't understand about the topic. Reading others response make me understand and inspire me what should I write to. What about you? Do you read the others responses?

Yes, I certainly do. It is always very interesting to read the views and opinions of other myLotters. That is the true value of myLot , and being a member of the community. The responses reflects the background and traditions of the members coming from countries around the world. It is really wonderful !

Hi, the most I response on the "no responses" discussion. Thus, I am the first respond. But, sometimes, I am not the first one, to respond a discussion. In such case, I am very rarely read the other member's responses. I only read the topic discussion, and when I can, I will make a response directly. You have a good day.
Cheers,

Most of the time I do not read other responses when answering a Post. I like to think I have my own ideas, and if i were to read other responses MY ideas might get diluted, or influenced in a manner that was not true to me. IN this case (for instance) I have not read even one response (how am I doing with winging it?) I like to be inspired from within, rather than from the mind of another myLotter.

If the discussion is something that really triggers different opinions and experiences, I do read them. It's interesting to see how others react to the topics. Besides, their experiences can be quite funny or extremely sad. There are times when I don't read them anymore, especially if the responses are all quite the same.

Usually I don't read first to their responses, but very seldom I did. When I made responses it is according to what i understand the question. Then after giving my responses/ideas I try to view others because I also want to know their opinion. For me, viewing others is also one way of learning.

I usually read the other responses only after I have posted mine. That way my answers wouldn't be influenced by the responses of others. :) Happy posting!

I usually do, but not always, especially if there is more than one page of responses as it takes to long to read them. If there are just a few then I will. I like to read what others have said about the discussion and most of the time m answer is totally different than others. What really makes mylot unique is the fact we can all express ourselves, without fer for riicule, at least it is supposed to be that way anyway. Good luck to you and happy mylotting.

As far as I am concenrned, I think It all depends on the topic. If the topic which started by the man is so intersting, I think , I will see the others' responses one by one.But if the topic I am not so interested in, I think I will not see the responses one by one. I will reply the answer that I am making and then leave the topic.

I usually will reply to discussions first, before reading other people's discussion. This is to make sure that my opinion wont be affected after reading other people's comments. I go for a fresh and direct ideas that came from my head and reply to the topic. after that, I will read most of the replies from other mylotters and might reply their comments too.
