Some of us experiencing problem, bad situation and others. Which some are seeking here an advices, 2nd opinion and friendly advices. Are we considered and can be lean on from the advices received or those advices are for the sake of discussion. What if they need a real and believe that advices can be the answer.. What is your views about this?
Are you encountered here seeking an advice and you given from your knowledge and capacity or for the sake of discussio only? Which side are you my fellow mylotter?

visavis - when we take the advice of others we have to own responsibility. others try to share their experience and are not compelling us to accept the same. We cannot blame others. However if the problem is acute such as health, property etc. it is better to take experts near your place who you can contact in person in times of need. I hope I have clarified ur doubt. good day.

We have to give the benefit of doubt that people who ask are sincerely looking for advice. In a similar argument, we trust that people who give advice do it with the best of intent.
However, there may be some who do either or both for the sake of dollars and cents, so especially for those seeking advice, it is best remembered that any advice you take, you have to own the responsibility of that decision. The rest of the lotter's words are either advice...or noise.
For me, if I can value-add, I try to. If I cannot, either I keep quiet OR...who knows.
Hope that clarifies?

Wow my friend ravisivan, thanks for including my name there very flattering but I hope now and to the next my capacity and ability to help can be served to the purpose.
@tiffnkeat thanks to your in real life assessment here in mylot, your right for a few cents or dollor we are using our wisdom and knowledge but to those receiving and asking take your own responsibility from your own final decission not blaming from others..

I guess most mylotters that posted topic asking advice are serious with seeking advice.
But in the end it is their decision whether to follow one advice or compress all advices and try setting plan A,plan B and so on.
I give my advice according to what I believed is the best way and depending on the situation.
I put myself in such situation to relate with the problem.
That is why i only respond to topics that I can relate with.
I don't respond to any topic that I know I cannot contribute anything,
that will only mess up the whole situation and made myself stupid..

Without any doubt, we can consider and follow our friends suggestions.
Because some of my mylot friends are very experiences in lives. They know each and everything, they are giving good suggestion. If it is acceptable, why should omit it.
And we can give preference to their opinion also, because it is giving us confidence.

Are you sure that if you can accept and apply such advice from your friend which you said most experience and good is 100% good result. what if from those experience advice is wrong, is it blame next. I don;t think so because we are the one who pick such advice.. right or wrong?

This question is one of those what I call a perspective question. The one the could really answer this accurately will be the one who is actually asking the advice. When you ask for advice, for sure you will be receiving many. Some of them are true, Some of them are tested, some of them are based on experience, other are based on ideas and other are just for fun. What is important is, you are the one to pick the best advice and you will be the one responsible doing the advice and in turn responsible for whatever consequences of the advice that you have pick. So you should be responsible for examining the advices that you get and pick the ones that you think will benefit you.

Your ideas and perception here is great my friend, it is true. What about for example you are seeking and asking advices and some are gives but one of them is not consired adviced - what is your common reaction about this? It look like annoying or dis-repect the situation.

It is really annoying to have that kind of advice (specially when off topic) But rather than being annoyed, i will just be ignoring that advice.

As for me, I try my best to reply quality and good advices for those in need here. However, since what some other topics in here are not that detailed or not that specific, some advices given could be too general. I do believe that advices are just guidelines and opinions from other people. The choice still is in the hands of the one needing it. If the topic starter believes in a certain advice, it should be because the topic starter realized that that was what he/she needed. As for so many others wanting advices, they should be responsible enough to be critical on the responses in here. But as far as I am reading here in myLot, I see good and sound advices scattered around in here.

Agent - u ri right. The choice is still in the hands of one who asks for advice. ok.If u find it useful accept. For example health advices like exercises can be taken seriously and implemented, if necessary under proper guidance.

Yep! That's why living life is a big responsibility in itself. I just hope that everybody will realize their responsibilities to be able to live life to the fullest! Having no responsibilities in my opinion is a life that is non sense and wasted.

hi visavis It is from my heart and my knowledge when I give advice and it is not just to make money but truly to help someone asking for help. I have found among my friends here that their advice has always been good and true advice. I think I would know if some advice was bad or thoughtless as I am old enough to have learned a few things from life and from my own education too.I have no malice towards anyone here so would never give bad advice. I think most of us are truly concerned for
each other and are trying to help in any way they can. No I see none that seem to be given for the sake of discussion only but you do bring up some wise thoughts there.most advice here is really very real.[

Hello Hatley, Actually I did not brought any idea here to become issue, because I know some are very sincere of giving advices to others, but some are very lax of giving advice. In some instances the discussion might be asking advices but for the sake of discussion some are divert it into a fun discussion - it is possible doing here? Becuase in asking or seeking advices very limited the coming and going responses but if diverted into something else it will furtherance the discussion, but the main purpose has been buried..

Hi!
For me, it depends on the advice itself. We can easily tell if an advice would fit us or not, so it's up to us what to think.
I think a lot of mylotters here are really concerned for others and are giving nice pieces of advice. It would always depend to the one asking for advice whether or not he/she will do that.

Taking advice here from the start you know your looking an advice or second opinion to put or make your final decission. Sometimes the advices you received are very good and can be applied outright, but we should aware that applying such advices are all their suggestion only -we are the driver and on the wheels whether to accept and apply.
Yeah agreed with you all here in mylot are ready and open heart to help others seeking advices.

Till today I have not asked for advice out here in Mylot. I enjoy participating in discussions and yes I have even answered discussions that we asking for advice. Out here mylooters are just not in for participating in discussions. They share genuine information and also give real advice.
Yes not all the time will the advice work out for that particular individual but with so many options, for sure some advice will work out and the individual will also feel better. Till today I have never had a problem with any mylooters in regards to the information they share and I strongly believe that they are genueine people here to particapate in the discussions and make an extra buck..

I'm new to Mylot, but from the discussions I've read, I honestly believe people are offering good suggestions and sharing true and real experiences. It's up to you whether you listen and take the suggestions or not. Sometimes things people may advise may make things worse for you. You have to weigh it all carefully and then make a decision that's best for you.

As for me, I steer clear from discussions that I know I have no firsthand knowledge of. I only give advice when I feel qualified to do so. I never share an opinion just for the sake of having something to say, or for the sake of stirring up some controversy. I value knowledge very much, but only knowledge that pertains to the reality of a situation, not knowledge that has no bearing to the situation whatsoever.
