Do you get upset if your friends don't respond to your discussion?

hello, hello, hello. relax my friend. you are not alone with this kind of thinking. even i am already two year old mylotter, i still feel the same thing. i even talked frankly with one member whom i followed every discussion he started since we became friends, but never in a single discussion of mine that he popped out. he told me that he just have his own style of mylotting. he liked to start discussion more than responding to others. i tried to get noticed by him but i failed. we even reached in a heated discussion, almost. but still, i let him remain in my friends list, and continue to follow his discussions. but take note of this, i do not response if i cannot relate to a topic or something that i really have no idea of the subject. have you been in my topics lately?

I think some really can't relate much so they intend not to leave a comment at all. It is better than appearing like a fool that don't know anything about the topic and just commenting without any idea. I don't get angry, I'm just depressed sometimes that my topics aren't that appealing to them.

Wow shyne....um, I'm not sure what to say. I started mylot with just a handful of firends. I always accepted friend requests no matter what. As time went on, if I liked someones opinion or response, I would add them as a friend. I probably add about 1-3 new friends a week now, just because I am mylotting daily, now. You shouldn't take offense. This is a big community. We can't always be at our computers. I usually am, but that's because I never leave the house...I don't own a car and work from home, so... But, really, this week was so busy 4 me. I had to go to get an eye exam and new glasses and my eyes were like, all dilated for 4 hours, so I took a nap. Can't mylot with dilated eyes....also, they asked me how many hours I spend on the computer daily. I thought about it and kinda felt embarrassed, so I lied a bit. I checked the answer "4-5" hrs per day. It's more like, all day....so it made me more aware of the time I am staring at the screen. Although, mostly I look at the keyboard, because I can't really type w/o looking, hahaha. Plus, the week before, I had to think about dental care.......if I don't respond, don't feel bad, it just means I'm too stressed out to answer at the moment, or my eyes are all dilated. I made a special folder in my email for mylot. It can sometimes contain up to 100 responses/discussions/comments. I always go to the comments first, and then I will randomly pick certain discussions to go to. If I get behind, I will just try to respond to a few discussions daily, until I get caught up, which sometimes doesn't happen. I never say "no" to friend requests, so I have a lot now. Don't feel bad or take it personal. I like the responses and input you have, and that is why I chose you as a friend.

You are absolutely right. i too normally make it a point to look out for my friends discussions and take part in it, but very few do the same, not even when I repeatedly respond to their discussions.But it really doesnt matter because your earning is intact and is not going to change whether someone responds or not.\When you take the trouble of starting a discussion, the idea is to get more opinions which can add on to the subject being discussed.When there are fewer responses the discussion becomes meaningless...

Hi shynepapin. First of all don't get angry get even. What do I mean by that ? What I mean by it, is reply back to all your friends that replied here on this discussion. Interact with them and have a bit of fun and turn it into a discussion. Remember discussions are a two way thing. If your friends know that you will reply to them in your own discussions they will be more inclined to keep responing to them and you will make more friends in the process. Hope this might help in some way

Hello, I don't really take this kind of things seriously. I don't expect too much from other people here. I have accepted a lot of friends here because for me it's kinda rude if I will decline their requests. However, I'm not really updated like you if a friend of mine here has started a discussion. I just participate on the discussion which interest me for a certain moment or time. You cannot expect all your friends here to respond to your discussions. They are free to decide what they want. The word Friend is indeed have a great meaning but it has been too common and used by many that the meaning of this word has not been too important for some people. Just try to enjoy here and don't be disappointed. We cannot please other people, so let's not expect too much from them. Don't be angry just try to enjoy and I'm sure you will still get response from your discussions.

when I was a newbie here I did feel disappointed when people in my friends list did not respond to my discussion though I never missed to try my best to share what I could in all their topics started. Later on I know all of us here feel free to pick discussions which interest us to participate in. And no one has the responsibility that he or she should respond to all the new discussions started by members from the friends list. And most probably not all our discussions can rouse the interest of our friends to participate in.... I think the main purpose to have more friends in our friends list. Just because it's easy for us to trace discussions, comments and posts from members from our friends list easily if the buttons of notifier beside their user names are on. I treat all the members here are friends not only the ones in my friends list for we are all members from our huge family, myLot site. Therefore I tend to respond discussion which I'm interested no matter whether it's from member in the friends list. I rarely make any friends request for quite a long period as well as to start new discussion. I like picking discussions from all the features providing here depending on my mood. This is the reason I meet you here in this moment shynepapin101, right? I have met many good friends here and they like to have mutual interaction in discussions. Therefore I like to share with them with what I know all the time. So keep it up and feel free to participate in the activities which interest you all the time. You will do well and have more fun having more friends to join in your coming discussions.... Happy posting

I don't really.. Most of my friends requested me themselves and they know better why they did so. I'm not going to bind them with my discussions. In my opinion one must respond to what discussion they can relate with. To whom I requested, they will find my response almost always there in their discussions. But still, I'm not bound to respond at any cost. Better look for broader reach and make your name famous here, so people will turn up to your discussion. Take it light. Don't be angry.

No I dont get upset if someone on my friends list dosent respond to my discussions because sometimes people have a lot of friends on there list and cant always get to everyone all in the same day, or maybe the discussion just wasn't interesting to them, thats just how it is here, and one cant take it too personal. With that said I always try my best to respond to my friends discussion's because thats how the mylot train works were all supposed to hop on board find somthing interesting have fun, and ride the train for as long as we can and do our best to keep it moving. so for me as long as some of my friends still respond it dosent matter much if one or two dosent. Now reciving no responds at all by friends thats another story, and that dose bother me a bit its not the end of the world, but it makes me wounder if I posted somthing wrong and why there was no responds, but when that happens all one can do is move on and hope for a responds on the next topic.

Hi shynepapin, One thing for sure is we did not earn anything by having a large number of friends here. The advantage of having someone in our friend list is we can send a private message to him or her while those who is not in our friend list, we can not do that. I actually did not mind if my friends did not give their input at my discussion because I believe not all of them knew what am I talking about. Most of my discussion is something about football and most of the people participate in my discussion is not from my friend list. I would love to participate in my friends if I could but I did not feel any responsibility to give my response if I did not have anything to say. It is better if I did not participate there rather then just give something that is nothing to do with the discussion. It might anger my friend if I did that.

Its ok. I do not repond to all the discussions that my friends have started so if my friend does not give response to my discussions its fine. I do reply to the discussion which interests me, if there are no of discussion but none of them is of my interest, I will not respond. May be similar things applies to my other friends. replying to discussions depends on the interest, if my interest and the topic of discussion matches, I will reply otherwise, no.

Nope. Never have I taken that offensively. It's ok. Yes most people do add friends for show. But I for one, add people whom I am interested in. Hmmm... not in a romantic way... I might've found that user's discussions really interesting and I always want to be updated. I like the idea that whenever I pull up my profile page I see right away what my "most valuable players" are up to. So from there I can respond to their discussions right away without having to go to their profiles and check on the recent discussions they posted. Happy mylotting friend....

I had just started a discussion like this some days back but after I received the responses came to know that I was not the only one facing this problem so now I have started not taking it very seriously. I do respond to all the discussions of my friends to which I can give some responses but there are many friends who post discussions which I have no knowledge of so I avoid those discussions. So take it lightly and do not worry much.

No i will never get angry if my friends didn't respond to my discussion. They may be having some reasons which we may not be knowing. I am not serious about this matter. I do read their discussion and sometimes i may not be in a position to answer for it. That doesn't mean that they are not supporting or concern to us or vise verse.

I think you don't need to be really upset! I think this place is just to have fun and money is just a side effect of this. I am here more than 2 years now and haven't received a payment yet. I was upset from the start, but now I feel that I don't care. I come to mylot when I want to talk to people, to listen to their thoughts, but I don't respond to any discussion, only the ones I am interested in. Also, I have noticed that you earn more by responding to discussion rather than someone responds to yours. So, don't be upset! And keep posting! Good luck!

I personally never check the friends started discussions tab. I feel like people are randomly adding me, thats why I don't feel like it. I still accept these people since they may want to ask me for help or something, but they never do. . I don't notice if my friends comment on my discussions since I don't remember who was my friend and who wasn't. I personally build in my mind an image of each person mixing the avatar, name and comments and thats how I reconogize the people on MyLot, so when I see a discussion started by someone that I like and the topic seems interesting, I will surelly check it.

No really .i do understand it.Many times they are not online or simply they fail to recognize i have started discussion.It may be because they dont have knowledge of what i am talking or thread i started isnt just interesting.There can be any reason.So i dont upset over it.I too dont respond each and every discussion started by my friends.So its both way.

Its never bothered me that my friends here on my lot don't respond to my discussions. I know they just friended me to get their # of friends higher. As for myself, I don't respond to all of their discussions either, though I do go in occasionally and answer as many of them as I have time to right then.

i respect with your feeling regarding this issue., but every individual has its own choice whether they want to respond it or not., as for me, sometimes i am not responding to my other friends discussion because it hard for me to relay about there discussion., thats why i am not get offended if some of my discussion on few will response into it., will, its their choice., God Bless!

I don't take it seriously.Maybe they have little time to respond your every discussion.but if they are able to do it,of course,i wish they would do it for me.but a friend doesn't have to echo my words always.
