I have a bright idea!!

I gave a few responses and comments this week to old discussions found with the internal search engine, and I even won a $0.03 reward yesterday -- my first this year --. To say the truth I was looking for specific topics, but I could not resist to give a response to some discussions. I find enough topics interesting for me daily, and I am more sure to get a comment in fresh topics than in 4 or 5 years old discussions. It is a brilliant idea only if you don't care to risk to never receive a comment.

I used to do this when I was here more often and had more time, especially on discussions that interested me where the original poster of the discussion never replied back to any of the responders. Now, I do not do it much unless I really can't find anything interesting in the newer topics - mostly because I don't have as much time to search through things. I think it is a good idea, though, especially if you are not interested in anything that has been posted recently. In addition, while you are searching you might just receive a reward, which is also a nice bonus.

Hi ak! I read the other responses before writing my own. This discussion is classic example to prove that many users do not read the discussion properly and post whatever they feel like (whether relevant or irrelevant to the core issue). Your idea appears bright on the surface. You could give it a try and see if it works and respondents choose to comments on your comments. I would not like to implement this idea. This is because if the host of the discussion or the respondent is unknown to me i.e. not in my friends' list, s/he may not fully understand the import or relevance of my comments. Have a great day.

I always wanted to go back to styling again and I plan on going back in the next few months. I need to sort out some things in my life and iron things out more so that it will be easier for me to multi-task and stuff. I also always wanted to go on a European trip and I plan ion doing that in 4 years. I need to save up, or look for a rich boyfriend lol.

I do like that. Many my discussions are deleted because the topics are deleted so that i think better i give my discussions on old topics so that i wont worry about my discussions are deleted more. Actually old topics are new to me because i am just active in mylot for a short time, so that nothing is new, nothing is old yet. Keep doing it, my friend.

Hello allknowing, that is what Im doing recently browsing and responding to old discussion. I turn on my ipod and set it in shuffle mode, when the song is interesting me I browse using mylot search bar try to find discussion related to the song I listen and mostly it is old discussion because my ipod full of oldies song. I find it is easier to participate a discussion which related to the music I listen, my mind flow by itself. My mind is disconnected and cannot participate in recent discussion, I spotted some interesting recent discussions but Im unable to get my mind to give a response, it is like my mind is stuck and cannot let out my opinion but I dont want to log out from mylot so participating in old discussion related to music that I listen is helping me to refresh my mind.

I have ran across a bunch of older discussions that have interested me. I think it's perfectly appropriate to be active in older discussions, especially considering the guidelines...no repeats. It has never really mattered to me if they are older but I do like it if the starter of the discussion is still a member.

I don't have a lot of time and I don't search for old discussions. But sometimes they appear on the "recent" tab and I've posted responses. I think that some interesting topics deserve a revival. And also after a period of time, some discussions get a different meaning.

Actually, since the first time I'm join myLot, I haven't made any discussion yet. I don't know what should I write and I don't find any interesting topic to discuss, so I only responses to another discussion.....

It is cool no matter through commenting from any mylotters here.Plus,i would say that i just try to find the topics that i'm interested in and found the leisure responding.Mylot give me lots of fun,so just be enjoy and posting here.

allknowing: you may knowing more about mylot than myself because you have been here for a longer time. I normally respond for new discussions and occasionally I answer old discussions similar to this. Normally I do not respond for very old discussions. your idea is right.

Well, I have been doing that even before. Really, the topics in myLot is quite limitless. With all the old and new discussions, there surely is something that will get the interest of any kind of person there is. Sometimes, when I cannot think about something to post or reply to the new discussions, I even go back to my older discussions to comment further and try to revive my own topic. It is easier to go back to such as there are already ideas given out compared to the new ones which ideas are still need to be generated to form out the discussion.

I am new at the "mylotting" game. I too am only responding to already existing posts. I do start with today's top though. Hope this helps...Good Luck:-)
