Posts with no responses.

I don´t post everyday either bcause I spend a lot of time answering or commenting posts. But That´s how I like mylot.

It took a while for me to learn to start a post, But besides that, I only make 1 or 2 posts a day at the most. I prefer to answer posts and thn I comment what people answer.

A post without any sort of interaction is not a discussion, of course. It would seem we are talking to the walls. I worry about the no response posts, but I don´t like those people who make a thousand posts and never comment on them. Usually I try to remember their names and NEVER get into their game after a while.

I have a couple people on my friends list that seem to be like that - they start a bunch of discussions in one day and do not comment back to any of the responders. If they continue to do this, then I think that I will de-friend them, because it makes it a lot more difficult to find the interesting discussions by my other friends when I have to page through their discussions to find them. Still, I wonder whether or not members realize that they do not earn for responses received on their discussions. Maybe that is why some never go back and comment back to the responses on their discussions. I also never checked, but perhaps some of the users with no responses have given up or do not check their e-mail for notifications. When I respond to discussions with no responses, I try to go back at least a day or two. I would hope that in that time they would not have quit the site, but perhaps they gave up hope about getting a response on their discussion and have forgotten to check back on it.

You are right! And maybe those mylotters, with that life, will write later those king of posts we all want to reply to.

I know what you mean by some possts getting drowned. I´m trying to get away from those members. I´m glad the I know speed reading. But only one in maybe 10 or 20 is worth answering and other poor members´posts are taken to the second or third page in a second.

You are right, flagella. But checking once in a while doesn´t take much time and sometimes one finds a jewel.

I found one about Torchwood I answered!

I know. That´s what I did yesterday. I did not find any post I´d like to answer though. But somtimes I find treasures so once in a while, if I have time, I check.

Unfortunatly, many of those posts are not interesting. But it is a shame too that some good posts fall in that category just because they got in the middle of posts made by those people that write 20 per day.

hi marguicha! that's the thing, you can never be so sure if you'll stumble upon a good discussion to reply to in that tab (no responses). one would think that these discussions have no responses because of a valid reason. anyway, like they say, the thrill is in the hunt. hope that made sense!

Somedays I feel it´s a loss of time because the posts are not that interesting. But some other days I´m glad I did it, because I find one or two very good posts that just got overlooked by the rest.

I don´t mean we should answer everyone of the no responses ones, but just take a look once in a while. If we all do that, maybe even the site itself will become more lively!

I know that it depends on the time you have, paula. Sometimes you just can´t do more than comment the answers you got and check a bit at your friend´s posts.

Me too, time is a big thing.

Many of them are very boring, but once in a while it´s just a newbie with not enough friends I don´t mean read each one, but maybe browse at them once in a while.

But sometimes someone picksup an old discusion nd it´s brought up again. Did you know that?

Yes actually I have noticed that a couple of times. And I get really happy actually when my 5months old discussions come up again

I don´t feel sad for that! I have a lot of things that are worth more to feel sad about. I am not worried about the money I earn here either. But I find good posts with no responses once in a while and I´m glad I spent the time checking.

I understand that. We want to create a conversation when we answer. I cannot answer all my friend´s posts for lack of time, but I do my best. As for being unfair, they are missing the point of the site and at the same time, they don´t earn a single penny for your response. It´s their work, and their comments, which is counted as their participation.

I check there some days. But some days you just don´t have luck and feel guilty because you are losing time that you could spend answering to your friends.

Today I checked 3 pages and did not fingd a quality post that I cared to answer. That´s what nmade me ask all of you how you reacted to them. Now, there are times when there´s a good post sandwiched between the rest.
