My mylotters!
I envy those who can start more than two discussions a day. I can only make 3-4 discussions in a week,yay! And sometimes,I find it hard replying to all of them while I have some discussions of my friends to reply with. I noticed most of my friends can even make 4-5 discussions in just one day,wow! How do you manage to do it? Do you respond at once to all of your respondents? Share your tips please,I might follow it so I can do the same,lol!

I only make discussions when there are topics that i really am into.. if not i spend my time here responding. You will get the hang of it At times i cannot respond to all that i have started just like yesterday's discussion i made..i have not responded to it all i do it if i have ample time.

Hi jazel!
Haha,I also have the same attitude at times,hehe! Sometimes I am already hooked with my friend's discussion that it is now making me lazy to reply at once to my own discussion,lol! But I know this is not a good thing so as much as possible I try to prioritize my own discussion just like what I am doing now and then reply to other discussions.

Hello my friend! Happy to see you again! It's been a while!
Oh the reason for that my friend is you're not that active here,try to visit mylot everyday. For the discussions,I usually make about what I encounter in my life or whatever I observed online. I'm sure you have lots of interesting things happening to you,you can share it with us and ask some questions.
Hope to see you more often my friend,miss yah!

Yes, my friend, I've been on a break for mylot today and here I am again. Hope this will continue as I need to save up for something big.

You write about what goes on around you. What happens during the day. Interactions with other people. Mylot used to have alot more people, or different people I guess because actually when I started on here there was only 60,000 members yet it was busier. If you check the different interests and see what type of discussions are started that really gets the most responses then you can go from there.

What is Microworkers? I spend my day answering Mylot responses and discussions and on several other sites. Sorry you are having problems. Hope you get them fixed soon. My laptop keeps getting hot and I have to turn it off awhile. Slows me down considerably. I am usually done by now.

Hi celticeagle! Wow,you are one of the pioneers here then! I joined mylot and I saw more than 200,000 members already.
That's what I've been doing now. Yesterday,I encountered some problems in Microworkers and that made me start a discussion and I learned I am not the only who is encountering such problems in that site.
Didn't make it to 2 discussions yesterday,hehe! It's hard! Until now I am not yet finished replying to my posts yesterday and even my previous posts like this discussion. So I'll just go back to my old way,hehe!

Yeah,I noticed that you seldom start a discussion myfb,but you were able today,that's good! I already commented on it.
Wasn't able to make more than one discussion my friend,it's hard to cope up with the replies,everyday there's new comments and I have to prioritize them so I decided to finish replying to all of them first before starting a new one,hehe!

I have sveral close friends here. You can imagine though after reading the number f my posts or lookig at my profile. But for me, this is the place where I have company and where I learn. I respect it and I´m grateful the web has it.
As for earning money, I get the rest of my $100 a month (most of it) elsewhere. Even though I exchange sites here with some of my friends through PM, I keep the business side out after the exchange is made. So, for me, mylot is where I am myself and answer when I see the same from the others.

Hi marguicha!
Oh yes,I can see from the number of your posts that you have gone that far here in mylot and I know of course you already have many close friends here. I know some friends who are here in mylot for fun too.
Wow,you are lucky to earn $100 a month online. Wish I could also earn like you,haha! Well,working online is my best resort for my free time at home and I am somehow happy with my small earnings but I will be really glad if I also earn like you,lol!

Hi marguicha!
Wow,10-20 posts a day,oh no,can't do it,lol!
You are right about interesting discussions so there will be more replies but as for me,since I do have some close friends here,even if it is out of my interest,I still try to reply to it,lol! I somehow know them more through their posts.

When I used to start multiple discussions in a day, I usually, have my email ready, easier to reply when you know when comments are posted, no use checking on your post every now and then.
I usually reply/comment as soon as comments of others are posted, but sometimes, I reply the day after especially when the replies/comments come when I am doing something important.
It is hard catching up when that happens thats why I am one of those that tend to search for interesting discussions nowadays rather start new one!
I guess you just have got to have the time to reply to the comments. Some don't comment on the replies however, they just start and start discussion...

I do agree with back and forth discussions are the best! Sometime rather more time s nowadays though, I just don;t have the time to be in them. But I do respond to comments/replies as soon as I am able to.
It is really amazing how much time some people spend in mylot. I guess they really know how to manage their time. It is a skill I need to learn.
Yeah it is hard to lose respondents to our discussions simply because we fail to respond to their comments.

Hi shattered!
Oh I do love to make a reply at once to my respondents,as much as I can,'cause it's more enjoyable if you're going to have a back and forth replies,that's one reason why I only post one discussion in two days,hehe! Sometimes when you are already hooked in one discussion,you tend to forget to make replies with your other posts. That's why it amazes me when I see some who makes lots of discussions and can also reply to it immediately,wow!
Looking at my email notifications is what I also do as it is hard to check it in mylot itself.
I don't want to start discussions without replying to them,I may not have respondents anymore with that kind of atittude,hehe!

Hi shattered!
You just have to be there when you finished posting your own discussion. I for one usually make it sure that I still have a bit time to spend in mylot when I post a discussion so I can reply at once to my 2 or 3 respondents. If I can reply more,the better.

hello cutie,
Usually i start 2 topic in a day,or maybe 3 when I feel or read something from the response to my other topic and give me idea to start another topic.
I always try to response back once i received a comment,that way I won't have a hard time responding when comments came flowing.
Just days ago..i start 3 topics in a row and then 2 topics the following day and i keep responding soon as i receive a comment.
In that way,I can also keep a good conversation with my responder and have fun with friends and mylotters as well.
I always check my topic and never want to miss any comment there.
Have a great day always dear friend

I only did one discussion today my friend,still one to go,hehe! Just have to finish replying to all my commentors first before starting another one. I wish I am like you who can attend at once to the repliers! Thanks for the tips my friend,will try to do it!

My thinking here is quite different. Although I would like to receive many responses but I don't which makes me decide to go slow on posting topics yet on the other hand if I were to post two a day and received many responses I would be exhausted responding/commenting the whole day. So I am content posting occasionally. I plate is full nevertheless doing other things here.

Hi my dear sweet friend
I once did two on a day and went bonkers.
Probably because though I wanted to keep up with them, I also wanted to keep up with my friends started discussions also. So doing both was way too much for me. In fact one alone is a great responsibility for me. I do get so many responses and furthering of discussions that doing more then one and keeping up with friends would not be possible for me.
Since I always tend to concentrate on quality and comment back to each responder, I fear that my quality participation would lack and that would make me unhappy. So I personally prefer to stick with one every so often. As for those who can do more then one a day, many blessings for doing so.

Hello my two dear friends!
Haha,agree with suny,hehe! But I also agree with you my dear friend. REplying to your posts and to the discussions of friends are hard to do especially when you have a back and forth replies. I am just challenge if I can do it even in just one day. Since I don't write articles as of now(hehe),I thought I can give more time in mylot. Haven't done responding to my friend's discussion yet as I am not yet finish responding in this discussion. I'm just glad all of you are here,makes it enjoyable to respond.
If I can't make it my dear friend,I'll just go back to my old way,lol!

Hi mtr! I often create my own topics, especially if there's nothing I find interesting to read from the notifications I receive from MyLot. I manage to respond to all of my topics and still respond to other topics that I find appealing.
Umm...how do I do it?... Well, I just respond to them one at a time. I open all the new responses in one instance until there are no more new mails. So I can have a lot of opened tabs in one instance. I close them as I go by.

Hi mtr,
Are you sure you have something interesting to say in 40 posts a day? Isn´t it a pity is a sit such as this ne was used only to get money? I earn about $100 a month online, n investment, only international sites, but not here. Here is the site where I have the fun. There are ther places to get the mney easily and get bred as easily.

Hi jdex!
Oh no,I don't think I can post 40 a day,lol! Maybe if I comment in just one line then I can post 40,haha! But of course,we are being paid here through our participation with quality comments.
Hmm..I'll just share you what I do. When I start a discussion,as much as possible I reply at once to my repliers,it somehow makes a back and forth reply and that makes a discussion more enjoyable. Sometimes,when you are already enjoying it,you wont notice how many posts you've already made,haha!
Add more friends jdex and try to comment back to the replies.
Enjoy and happy mylotting!

Hi mtr,
I will start new topics when I have enough time to respond or work with the same. Otherwise I prefer to spend the little time; I got in between work, for responding to my friend’s topics. Staring a topic is always become a responsibility for us because we should comment back to all. If I get huge number of responses then I may leave that topic for sometime (when I become bored with the same topic) and will get back to that topic with a fresh mind after a break. Those who are starting many topics in a day, a major percentage of those members never get back to their respondents.
If you have enough time to spend in mylot then you can start many topics in a day.

I don’t manage and that is why lately all I’ve been doing is respond to my friends’ discussions instead of starting my own because I like to comment on all my responses and I am so far behind with my notifications I need to catch up on those for a while. I used to start one or two a week, more than that and I would be struggling.

In my first time here in mylot same target of 3-4 topics to be posted I never complete my day if not made that target. But I was wrong the real essense here is you can post discussions which you can manage to response, meaning not necessary 3-4 topics a day to earn more here, if you have one discussions but your be able to furtherance the discussion into endless response back and forth that's good.
There are many older user here that that very seldom to make a discussion, but can earn enough in the day - how they are active in participation to other discussion, they are able to further the discussion even they are not starter, one example is Hardworkingurl she is very seldom or not making discussion but very active around might be all discussion here. Which I'm sure she have good enough earning per day.
So my tip is not how many your posting discussion a day, but how active your participation here in the discussion.

Hi friend!
Eversince I am new here,I really don't make discussions that are more than one. Infact,I just make 2 discussions or just 1 in a week. I concentrate before on replying to other's discussion to gain friends and learn the ways here in mylot. When I already have close friends,that's the time I make more than 1 discussion in a week. Sometimes it's hard to have a back and forth discussions if you don't have friends here.
Don't take me seriously my friend. I do agree with everything you said and I know it. I just want to try what some of my friends can do,lol! It's just an experiment visavis,nothing more of a permanent plan to do as I don't have lots of time online,ngek! Thanks for the tip!
