Responding on Every Response...

Do you respond on every single response on the discussion you have started? Do you still add your response on someone's response even though it is somehow unrelated with the topic?

Hi skbrence, Yes i always respond on responses and comments made by my mylot friends. it's an acknowledgement of their efforts. we can even make a lengthy discussion out of the singel topic. it's fun to make a follow up response and have exchanges of responses. unrelated to topic? well, it's the two of you who's setting the flow so it can always be redirected to the main topic that you started! have fun!

that's the essence of mylot...for us to establish a discussion and enjoy the exchange of ideas and learn from it. in this way we will be able to establish friendship and have the chance to know more our friends based on their responses and how look at things!

Yeah... myLot is like a "give-and-take" procedure for us to have good socialization and good communication with other myLots... The more the ideas, the more we understand each of us... You + Other = Good Discussions is really the essence of myLot.

Hi there msfrancisco9369... Yeah... It is somehow good for us to mingle and respond with our friend's response since it just show how friendly we are that we are supporting them or other things... I agree on you on the "it's the two of you..." line of yours... It would really be redirected again in the topic once you have good communication with each other... By the way, thanks for your response and thanks also for dropping by.

I respond as much as I can depending on if the conversation is ongoing or if it has come to the end and there is nothing else that could be said by either individual. I guess it would be a case by case situation and if the discussion warranted continuing then I would keep responding.

I don't see just dragging a discussion along where when people view it they will ask their selves what the heck is this person talking about. The discussion went from scrambled eggs and now they are talking about cars.

Yeah somehow. Some myLotters doesn't even know how to keep themselves in the topic. Most of the time, myLotters do start another discussion that isn't that relevant about the topic.

Hi there WiseReptiles... Oh... So in short, the point is when it smells like it's the end, you would definitely end it and if it's not, you will still continue it... Got it... xD Thanks by the way for your response and thanks also for dropping by.

Well, if you start a discussion, then you ignore it and leave it there, it isn't a discussion anymore. I try to make a habit of responding to everyone's responses. I will still add my response on someone else's response even if it does not concern the topic. If I have no idea what to respond, I would at least say a 'thank you'. Happy mylotting to you :D

Hi there redwarrior82... I agree with you on the part where you have said that a discussion isn't anymore a discussion if it is ignored... xD I am also somewhat like you who has the only option of saying thank you if I haven't anything more to respond. By the way, thanks for your response and thanks also for dropping by.

Oh yes I do, if I want to earn. Some users will start a discussion, and leave it thinking they don't have to comment back, as they will earn with their responses, but it just isn't that way at all. If the one that starts discussions wants to earn, they do need to comment back. I haven't started all that many discussions, but the ones I have strted, I have commented back to all of them. I really haven't had all that many responses to comment to, but that is okay, as every little bit helps. I will always comment back no matter what and no matter how many responses I receive. Good luck to you and happy mylotting.

Hi there rosekiss... Hahaha... Yes we do, we want to earn... xD I have the same attitude as you do... With all of those discussions I have started, I always make sure that every response there are responded back by me... It is really a good method to earn money and to make good connection with other myLotters... By the way, thanks for your response and thanks also for dropping by.

Hi there myl0t1... If you need more explanation about that certain response, you would continue responding on it right? What if you don't need any other explanation, would you let it and have it response-less? By the way, thanks for your response and thanks also for dropping by.

As much as possible I always respond to the responses done on the discussions I have started. In way, it will encourage those that have responded to respond more to discussions that I will start later on. I feel obligated to respond considering that after all, I am the one who started such discussion. It will also give me the opportunity for more earning. But if the post is no longer related to the topic, then I cannot find anything that somehow can relate to the response, then I will not reply anymore.

Hi skbrence, Whenever I started a discussion, I always try to leave a comment to every single response that I receive. It is a courtesy for the discussion starter to comment on every response to show some kind of appreciation for the responder. Leaving a response without comment meant that we did not appreciate the time and ideas the those responder has to spend to response our discussion. If someone leave a response and/or comment that not related to my discussion, I still comment on it. My comment would most probably like "What do you mean by that?", "Care to elaborate?", "I am sorry, but could you explain it more?" or something like that.
