I don't know why I rather respond than creating my own discussion here. I've seen that some people here can create lots of discussion in a day.
Are we the same?

I think you just created a new discussion. I like to do both. I respond to the discussions which create knowledge in me.

I definitely prefer to respond to discussions instead of create them. I've created a few, but I find it's too much responsibility. Responding here means I don't have to comment on every other response or select a best response or rate each response anything like that. I suppose I don't have to when I create a discussion but I feel obligated. Responding means I don't have to do anything but make sure my own response is on topic and descriptive.

I am the same way too, I'd rather respond to discussions then create my own. I most of the time I can't think of anything to discuss, so I just look for other discussions that I can respond to. The only time I will create a discussion is when something has happened or I have a interesting topic to discuss I will create one. I know though that sometimes it is very hard to come up with topics though. I admire all those people who can come up with so many topics though.

Hello friend, i like responding too. But last months i started posting my own discussions and i feel great when i can read what the other people think about the same things i think at the moment. Responding my own discussions, is great too, we share experience, i read what the other people would do if they were me.
When i was new, i had few not successful discussions and i said myself "girl, stop doing it, first read what the other people are interested from and then when you are ready, post discussions". That's what i did. Answered, answered, but there were a moment when i was just checking the sections and couldn't find interesting discussions. That's how i started to make my own and some of them was really useful and interesting for me.

Hi. I do the same too. I respond to others' discussions more than I start one. I start a discussion only when I have a point to make or really would like to share something with all of you. Never just for the sake of starting a discussion. And I seriously don't know how people can keep starting a number of discussions day after day. I would definitely run out of topics.

We are the same. I find it hard to create a quality discussion. Maybe because I always feel lazy or I am just really lacking of good ideas. But at least I am able to give quality responses to every discussion and I see to it that I find some time to ccomment back when I receive a comment on the discussions I have responded. Thank you.

I enjoy responding to discussions, in fact for a very long tome, I have been post discussions, but simply responding to them!

It depends. Sometime I like readying other people's discussion to share with them, but sometimes I like starting a new discussion.
