Animated Avatars Result in More Responses?

And what can you tell about my character from this one..

I would love to see that too. So why don't you spill all the beans diana? :) I am sure everyone is very interested hearing what you have to say. :D ( I know you won't tell us everything... :P) Thanks for the compliment, yours don't.

Avatar is nothing but and identity of user. Attractiveness of avatar can catch eye. But in case of responding attractiveness of discussion is more important.

He missed that one! I wonder if he would have time to read it now, if he was here of course, but he seems to have vanished again

I blame diana. She doesn't want to spill the beans. So I eat them instead. Makes no since at all huh? Not even as a proverb? I know. My English blows and sucks lollipops.

diamania can be here and gone in a flash. , It has always been my thinking you comment back and you continue to move the discussion up a notch in the tabs, where as many can quite easily see and be more likely to reply. Not doing so sinks in lower in the buckets and not easily be found.

I had 2 deaths to deal with in 30 days, and then the holidays... now my car is dying... just not a good couple of months.

That's really awful to hear. I really don't know what to say. I hope you'll experience life in a more positive way soon.

Aww, I feel sorry for you. I really really really hope you'll feel better soon.

So be it.... I'll blink till someone starts moving back and forth BTW I think barging is comfortable in known territories... Some people are ubiquitous here, each thing mylot is there own :) But I'm just a humble nothing How could I charge those masters???

Sunny won't mind you in his box... but he is fast asleep now and willbe back when it is our turn to go to the land of nod

In fact sunny insists we barge as he barges all the time... One thing mysd I have noticed some members barging in somewhere I applied a comment and the initial posters get pee you'd. I love it. Naturally these are the members who are not using myLot to it's full potential. One particular instance it became a whole ska doodle and the initial poster was so rude. Why do members feel they own the comments, comment boxes and that it should not be done. I do not get that. What the member did not get is that it then resulted in members no longer responding to any of their started discussion.

Yep attractiveness, quality but also someone's reputation. I am pretty sure people tend to check discussions of better known people earlier than the new kid on the block or the annoying ranter.

Yeah that's right. After a while you find out who creates awesome discussions and who does not. Avatars are just gimmicks that could attract attention but that's that. :)

Yes people are tend to check well know one .......... but they are becoming well known with their quality .........

ROFL;AO @ ìit's only grown today! I can vouch for that abnd it was very speedy!

You mean you are emo? Or is your hair blocking your view? Time to see the man with the scissors for you then!...

not so soon.. Its just grown today in fact now..

T-T-T-thank Y--y-you Yeah terrible isn't it. We are online animal abusers! Indeed as you say content is most important, someone's reputation also plays a role, a catchy animated avatar only has a very slight effect, if any, probably. :D Your avatar is, seemingly, a mystery. :P

Mine does simple things: open eyes, close eyes, open eyes, close eyes... So you can keep writing...

Hi Mysdianait. I have this slight case of ADD and blondness. The distracting avatar...well...

LOL I guess there is also that possibilty too!

You're one of the best known mylotters, I think that helps you a lot. People know you so they'll check out your profile and know that when you're in a discussion the discussion must be good. I hope destiny allows you to stay on mylot for a long long long time still. :)

I must try removing it and see if you still see me ...

Good thing you love animated avatars. Does that mean you'll be checking out my discussions more often? I'll offer you hot choco and cookies! :P ---Yeah you do that diana. That way I suddenly get 200 responses saying: "Hey did you change account? Why?" and "Huh you're a man now and so young? What did you do diana...?!" Diana, diamania, it's close... very close... Confusing is around the corner... Muahahahah *goes to psychiatric hospital*

... and comment back to those who respond, furthering the topic and giving them cause to respond back to you (and earn even more).

@ Captain mysdianait: Your point is noted madam. :) @Harry: For sure the avatar isn't going to do all the work. But you agree with me that it can help to have an interesting or funny avatar, don't you?

I am giving mylot my best. (

You can change your avatar in the top left corner. I don't know how to do that on a mobile device. But I guess if you have a modern device it shouldn't be different from when you're on a computer.

The link you're looking for is 'preferences'. There you can find it. ;)

Thank you so much. I will check it out for sure because yours is pretty cool, and I have nothing. Still not sure if I can get it w/o using my laptop. Hopefully it can be done from my "mobile device".

It's not so much that I want those results I'm just fiddling around and experimenting a bit. :) I am sorry it's distracting for you. Hope you'll get used to it soon. Thanks for your contribution.

Most of my discussions are of decent quality so if the avatar drags some people's attention I am happy. I also find it a funny avatar and that's what's most important. :)

No indeed they won't always respond but discussions do stand out when they're posted by users with catchy and flashy avatars. Those avatars like you said don't have to be moving, if they're attractive that does the trick. :)

I didn't mean users commenting on my avatar. I mean the avatar as a way to make discussions stand out. And I was asking if you guys think it can work. :)
