Good Day For Discussions!

I try to post a handful of new discussions every day. And usually when I do, most of them still have 0 responses days later! I started a bunch of discussions today, and just a few hours later there's only 1 without any responses! That makes me feel good because I often get so bummed when no one responds to my discussions! What about you? Do you get a lot of responses when you start discussions? Or do most of your discussions get 0 responses?

to be honest, when someone asks questions about functionalities of myLot, half of us are bored to reply and the other half also don't know the answer! A quick help would be myLot's FAQ http://www.mylot.com/o/faq.aspx welcome !

Sometimes I do feel like that, but a lot of times you have to impose the question so that way people of all cultures will consider and answer.

That's a good point! Also, having a good title really helps draw people in! I feel like I'm so bad at coming up with catchy titles! My titles seem so boring!

HI, I hardly started a discussions now as I don't have any good topic to share with mylotters,so I concentrate on responding to other people's discussions. I can feel how happy you are when your discussions got lot of responses,because I have the same feeling too when It happened to me. But I would say,some of my discussions did not get very good responses..less than 20 responses and I am not that happy with it. So I believe those topics were not that interesting ,that is why can't catch mylotters' attraction to give some responses.

I don't start a lot of discussions in one day. Mostly i prefer to just respond to the discussions started by friends or discussions of my interest. I only have 1 started discussion with 0 responses, but it's not a big deal to me. I understand that not everyone here can relate to that topic.

Yeah... I didn't use to start a lot of discussions. I mostly just respond to discussions. But I've found if I both respond to a lot of discussions AND start a few discussions, I make a lot more money! Plus often I get really burnt out on responding to discussions, and I also get really burnt out on starting discussions! So it's good to mix it up!

Hello trickiwoo, I love this name.. anyways it is sometimes a matter of timing. As we are all from so many different countries. I do not start very many but am one who responds to quite a lot of them, so feel free to add me as a friend as I am always willing to respond. Sometimes I am faster than lightening then other times I eventually get to them. Good luck and I hope to interact real soon, have a wonderful week.

That is a good point! There are some days that I'm on MyLot and I feel like I'm the only one on!!! I guess there are times it's really busy and also times it's really slow! And that plays a lot into how many responses you'll get!

Well so far I haven't seen a zero in my discussions or maybe I just didn't notice it. The lowest response I got maybe is one or two but haven't seen a zero yet. Well, in my case it doesn't bother me at all when people don't respond anything. I can understand if they cannot relate to the discussion that I've posted, but most of them anyway have comments.

Wow! You're lucky you've never gotten 0 responses! I often get 0 responses... but it's usually when I post discussions under interests that aren't very popular!

Hahah interesting topic right here... I hope I'm as hardworking as you, or Hardworkinggirl :p So far I don't have any discussions left unanswered, and that's because I don't post discussions that often :P But you're right trikiwoo!! I feels good indeed, seeing the comments adding up and you know that people care to answer anything that comes across your mind :DD
