Hello Lotters,
When people started asking questions here, it's usual to get replies and all. but that depends on the question, most of them get the response a bit too early or lately because some discussions are not within the boundaries of our interest.
Most of the questions I don't go into are the technical ones because I have absolutely NO CLUE about them. but i wonder if they got the right answers that supports their topic or helped. though, in every question, there's always some sort of disagreement, i mean why is that? some people ask a question and they disagree, come on
In my Case, it's rarely helped but I love commenting anyways, just don't make it too rude for me
Have a nice day

I,for one,respond only to the discussions I know something about.Otherwise I avoid them and proceed ahead.I have absolutely no knowledge of computer and other technologies.So if I decide to respond to discussions,I would end up either writing nothing or giving a wrong answer.So better leave such posts and proceed ahead.There are a lot of other discussions that I may respond to properly.

Hello Else22, It's really an inspiration when some one makes a post and gives a point of view even though we have little knowledge about it. Like you, am not much of a knowledgeable when it comes to computer itself, just some plain knowledge on how to turn it on and how to turn it off. Just hope we don't run into a very very hard to deal with people who responds rudely. otherwise we just report it. Have a nice day.

I had such an encounter here once.I had responded to a discussion by a user and then along chain of comments and counter-comments followed.We differed from each other and the user went on turning rude and ruder.Somehow I managed to remain polite and at last called it a day.

Ah i think this happens when as a discussion starter, you actually expect people to agree with you or to have the same beliefs as you do... of course if this is the case you would rarely have confused answers and you will feel that your discussion has been justified. =) He he Well but that is not the case most of the time... what happens is that the hundreds of people who are logged in may only have a few of them with the same idea or line of thought as yours and quite a lot of them will have a different understanding of the issue you posted... some will only love to comment and disagree just so they can start some really interesting discussion that is going to be non stop and unresolvable. :P

Hello Chiyosan, I don't know if am always tend to agree some one. maybe most of the time and even in this discussion I agree with a lot of people. But there are times that i do disagree with some most specially when it comes to topics that i make that are off. I remember some instances were some people would comment just for the sake of adding a post point, i tend to report those because it's not good of quality. Have a nice day.

Yes, It's true. Replies and answers depends on what is the question. I think everyone here have their own interest to choose and if the question is not within their interest they might as well won't comment at all instead of posting something that they don't have any clue at all.. The most important thing when starting a discussion is to pick the right interest on where to post the question. Select the closest interest to start rather than posting on general discussion. Also use and enter descriptive and relevant tags when you post. MyLotters comment and check the discussions on the specific interest they have chosen, so if you selected the right interest to start with, you'll definitely get answers from the people who selected the same interest.

Hello aquinoma05, I think those people who ask the general question is simply hoping to get a quick buck out of it. while those who are in need to help or knowledge input knows what they're asking. I've actually been learning from different users when ever i ask a question, though basic knowledge, i think it's good enough for me

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Well, there are different beliefs anyway, so I just try to understand why people have this kinds of answers. Sometimes, we do ask cause we are in doubt or we really don't have an idea at all. But of course, we all gain answers. It's just that, it's up to us how complicate we see things. If it's a simple question answerable by yes and no. you'll find it easy to get. but the answers after the yes and no might mean something you have to debate or agree with...
It's really up to you to decide on that. We all ahve different outlooks on life anyway... still we respect all others should say.

Hello Annavi23, Same here and I agree with you here that some people can have these different kind of views. some are even unbelievable to the point that i had to disagree in a civil manner of course. some results to debate in bad things i think, most specially when people are going to talk about religion and politics. Have a nice day and thanks for sharing.

yes, i do bel;ieve people have different views in life, we just have to respect their beliefs and opinions as well. debate is not necessary unless you don't hurt each other in words. but it is not a problem if you didn't comment back just to stop being mad or whaever negative feelings there...

Based on my experienced here in mylot so far, I am satisfied with their answer to my discussions and I am not just only got the right answer but instead I got the better answer. Disagreement is part of discussion because all of has had own opinion and point of view in life. In every discussion lots of our friend here in mylot replies just to give they best advice and we needed just analyzed which is right and good for us if we applied it in our daily lives.

Hello Bhebelen, Oh, that's good to know you're simply satisfied with the answers that given to you. we are all different and they give views based on their experiences. yeah since we are so different from each other, there are some conversations that resolves into a disagreement here with other people but that's normal. but hope it doesn't extend to hateful sentence. Have a nice day.

The thing about asking questions and wanting answers that help on mylot, you got to remember your mostly going to get opinions not real answers. yes sometimes someone smart will answer the question and you know they are trying to help you or teach you something but most of the time your just going to get opinions. I've asked a lot of questions and that is what I get out Mylot. It don't matter to me cause I do enjoying participating in mylot discussions.

I remember when I'm still a newbie here I was also wondering and very eager to received lots of responses. I'm really into a study to learn the techniques on how to attract MyLotters to answer my question. But as I go along there is no key to this just be nice and just be true to all what you write and you will be satisfied on their answer. Even there is only few who can relate but somehow you can learned from them. Nowadays I'm not that to active posting new discussion without any sense, I'm more having fun discussing what happened to me that I can share to everyone I also believe that it is more important to post things that everybody can relate or can learned from it.

it's not everytime we post discussions that we are asking questions. there are even more posts that only share the experience and the feelings of the original posters. but in most cases that i ask questions, i can get most but not all answers to the question and clear my thoughts and doubts.

dear LK,
Usually I start a topic that generally for opinions.
I seldom ask question/s.
I like to know other's opinion and views- that is more exciting and enticing.
Not to mention the disagreement- and yes, as long as they are not too rude (hehehe)
What's for the weekend my dear brother

Hello Jai-sis, Not much it's pretty much the same thing here, besides, i noticed that I've been really slow in mylot unlike how I was active before. I agree with you, that's what i do also in making some discussions, the response that i usually get were mostly based on opinions but some even supported it with reference and history or their personal experience. Have a nice day.

You are right depend on the question if I know the answer then I will post immediately but I not know the answer then read the comments and make my thought from it. My question is also easy and if I feel others question is also easy then I respond on it.

hi letran, I have not been a mylotter but eight months
but when I have never asked a question and not got many
responses..so my questions have been answered totally
But normally when I asked a question I am expecting others
to express themselves from their knowledge, so I normally
do get an answer that is satisfactory.. if its a question
I don't know the answer How would i know if its the right
or wrong answer...

Hello jc66bjc, This is actually the first that i have seen you here. What can I say? Welcome BACK! that's why we ask questions in the first place because you know that they will answer it for us. I agree, there's no right or wrong answer, you can disagree to it though or just plain appreciate the topic. have a nice day.

Hi LetranKnight25! I believe we can get the right answers here. I can find here a lot of point of views and opinions. Some can be branded either fact or just fallacy. It is my responsibility to screen the statememts but with respect and acceptance of every person's individuality. I would screen, get some third opinion outside mylot or test it myself if it works for me.
Also, i think, as a member or shall I say contributor of this site, if I felt that a response of a certain member is not valid or not acceptable in my own opinion, I can make a comment by telling him or her politely about what I believe otherwise. I think, we are free to reply as long as we do it politely and make it in a positive note. That will definitely make a sound discussion.

Hello Milkyung, Sometimes i get the answers here, most of the time it's pure opinion. there are moments that people even relate their experiences base on my question but doesn't really give a solution. well, that's okay I do that myself in most discussions that I respond to. I don't know how much i contributed but at least i get to share my point of views. have a nice day.

it depends on the person and the question, if it is something like do you think apples are the best fruit, I know that is simple but it just to show that the person can disagree, not every one thinks apples are the best fruit and that is okay

Wow, how ironic..I just started a post on why I was able to get online on my laptop for the last 2-3 days, but now I can't.
A previous question I asked was how to connect my laptop to my wireless router and yes, I got the answer, after going back and forth with one member who finally shared a link to my router that had a "guide me" option. I got online, but now I can't and that "guide me" is clueless as well...So I asked, and I hope I get the answer I need..

Most of the responses are god ones and they really answer the question and even i learn new stuff from what i red.. what i do not like are those people who just read the title and then comment already, they didn't even know or are sure what the question was.

I too sometimes don't know how to respond but i do respond to a friend for the sake of participating. Friends are too kind to acknowledge the fact that i don't know the answer to their queries. Most of the time i just avoid those that i'm not able to answer though.

Sometimes, yes, sometimes no. But it is always interest to get some swears to a discussion. Some answers give a very unexplored point of view even if it doesn't directly answer the question. Also, it is always fun to know what other ideas people have in mid eve if it comes in form of a disagreement. I guess assign a question is like life, you'll never what you will get, whether you it need it now or alter.
