Well, most mylotters have topics or discussions which are related to their old posts or somewhat similar in nature or the way they comment or respond have some pattern. Me myself have observed some of my friends discussions so I have branded some of them. One: The mystery-storyteller - He talks about topics which are really not common to hear or read (I think he knows himself lol). Two: The prophet - He talks almost about religion (I rather not add more details on this, lol) Three: The muncher - She discusses almost about food. lol And there are others.
You? Have you branded some of the mylotters which are friends and not?

I never really thought too much about it. I do think that some people have a pattern, but I do not think that everybody does - or maybe their pattern is that they don't have one and just jump in and out of discussions all over the place. I think that diversity is a good thing, and I try to respond all over the place but some things do catch my interest more quickly than others. So, what kind of a myLotter are you?

Basqui - I am a stalker? How could you say such a thing about someone as sweet and innocent as me? LOL!
Hex - You are about as shy of a myLotter as I am!
Wit - I love that your pattern is purple!

Hello there basqui!!!..for some yeah..I'm kinda observant..once I saw your profile and name I know what topic you are mostly focused..I think it's cool because somehow you have the idea of what kind of person he or she is..
I think I know the number one and two you have mentioned above they are friends of mine that's why but not the last one..I think it's really awesome to know them by just their topics..
Have a nice day..

This is the cutest and funniest discussion I have seen in a while. I was laughing all the way through the descriptions. I have not branded my friends but I think I should now. It's a cute and funny thing to do. You do have some really good observation skills and creative mind.
PS: Don't give me a mean sounding brand name.LOL
Have a fantastic day!

OH, hey there cbeee3,I really don't mean to be mean in giving some brands but if it's how it sounds then apologies for it. Maybe I should know more of you before branding you, we're just new friends yet so the pattern is not clear for now. Maybe I'll just call you "brand new" for now.

I have not branded any of my friends here. What's important is I have fun interacting with you guys. I may not be able to pop up in a while but when I'm here be sure to expect me in every discussion you guys make without the branding and stuff

Yes, please leave the branding iron home when you are stalking me, because I definitely am not into that whole pain/pleasure thing. I think you are totally correct with the part about the most important thing is having fun with friends, though!

No, I think that you misunderstand me - pain does not bring me pleasure ... unless, of course, I am inflicting the pain on some totally deserving person that did something awful, but that is an entirely different situation than the one that you are insinuating. Besides, I am sure that someone as shy as yourself would not be saying (or doing) those things anyway, so it must have been your evil twin that wrote it.

Yeah, I think that I have too that "The mystery-storyteller" as a friend, but others have quite much random discussions. Many do post many discussions realting the same topic though, but they still make all kinds of discussions
My most active myLot friends are their own brands, whatever they write, because I know that they make good quality posts
Some of my friends can't write so well, so that I don't really enjoy reading/participating in their discussion

Then maybe you need some of my friends? Some of them are and some are not good writers. I just turned the notifier on some that start boring discussions and not respond to responses. Maybe that's what you should do, update your notifications and start branding friends the fun way.

Yeah, that's a good advice
I am going to start "filtering" my friends from now on
I am going to check some of your friends for the "investigation"

Individual mylotters have their own specialized fields and their topic of discussions are not far apart. I can identify who is a football commentator here who always discus about football tournaments - the English leagues, and another one who is mylot unofficial mentor, one that knows all the rules at the tips of her fingers, another one is a political analysis who always talk about politics. They are many more that I can easily call them guru for being well versed on their subjects.

No, actually I have never done this. All my friends here on mylot are so different, they don't talk just about one and the same topic, they have different interests and it is always a pleasure to read their discussions, although I don't often respond due to lack of time, but I do read a lot of what they are writing about.

Not really officially to be honest. I guess in a way I have observed that one person might talk more on one specific topic then another person might.
There are a wide variety of topics being discussed and I have noted that some users tend to stick to one particular topic.

I agree some seems to be more focused on specific subjects than others, but i would guess it is because these type of subjects is what they have the most knowledge within. But sometimes they maybe also need to think before discussing anything so they dont offend the majority.

I have similar feelings regarding so, but sometimes people should think twice before posting thier comments to a discussion, or other times also think twice before posting the discussion.

I've "branded" some of my friends, but not nearly all of them. I have people who are interested in politics, others who are interested in the family, some are interested in gardening. As I get to know them better, I'll bet that most can be "branded", including me...

Yeah, some friends can't be branded for they have lots of interest and have no particular pattern.
Oh, yeah, I remember someone really into gardening, actually I think I have two of them. Grandpa gardener and I don't know if the other one's a grandma already,

I have a friend whom I never know what to expect from. I have one that is almost always talking about his garden, some people talk about where they live, others talk about their pets. Yes, some of my friends I automatically expect to start certain types of discussions.

Actually Garden Gerty is the name of a clown character I used to portray. She had a dirty face and lots of smudges. I do like gardening, and plants, but I like many other things as well. I liked her, she was a nice clown person, and I want to be like her.

Oh, I think I know who that gardener is. From your username, maybe you have something in common with his interests granny?
Yes, some are into pets and other things. It really depends on their interests. Some have already branded themselves like you from their usernames but some have wide range of interests though.

Nope basqui, though I know some of them tend to share their respective topics they like most of the time I still don't do any so-called labeling yet I like participating in discussions that I have something to share with and it doesn't who is the creator. It would be more fun if having more diversified topic of discussions starting by different friends. I always pick topics which interest me randomly from the discussion area depending on the mood then.
Happy posting

Well, there is one mylotter who I think of as The Activist or The Advocate. I think a whole lot of people know who I'm talking about. She knows what to do in a lot of tricky situations, and she gives legal advice like a real lawyer. Also, she stands up for people and things that cannot stand up for themselves.

haha =D That's kinda interesting.. And i do agree with u on that though.. hehe ^_^ Though some of my friends are starting discussions of all kinds, but there tend to have some major ones, whereby they are emphasising on.. As such, i will more or less know what they are trying to spread.. haha =D
If not, majority of my friends, are usually starting about their daily lifes and interesting happenings in life, which i find it a joy to read, except for those sad ones.. hehe

NOpe, so far, i have not came across any post that makes me cry.. I think words are not as powerful as music or actions, which brings tears to me, much easily.. hehe
So far, only 1 in my entire list of friends, always starts the same discussion about her love.. lol =D

Your post is very unique so I might as well brand you with the "UNIQUE MYLOTTER" Anyway, I am careful about branding people here. If I do, I keep it to myself. But there was one we branded myLot playboy because he stalks and follows the whereabouts of sexy women here.
I don't typically get the patterns of people so no, I don't really go branding people that much.

Oh, thanks!
I think I know the playboy is definitely not me because I don't chase sexy women, they chase me.
Yeah. it's better to brand them in our own and not reveal it at all. sometimes people would be offended and you don't want to have enemies in mylot eh? Just enjoy and have a good time branding.

Well i have named few too but i dont think it would be so wise to reveal them in here lol so we shall keep it a secret for SOMEONE's sake .I see that some are really crazy in responding to discussions---but i dont want to brand them as they're here for the money so are pretty mush on track and they seldom add a follow-up comment which does implies----how dedicated they're in responding .Coming to me most of my discussions fall under Mylot,People,Life interests---i discuss about topics which come to my mind at that moment else i prefer to stay calm(as i'm for the last 4 days).great day.

I think i should be given some time to come up with a name for you
Our interactions has been limited until now---so i can hardly give a name for you at this moment---all i know is that you're jovial with a bit of humour .
