Your reaction to others' comments about your response

Hi! There would always be different opinions to an issue because of various reasons. One reason is cultural difference. We have different cultures and traditons and different norms of society on each issue so some of the users express their views as per their culture and in the process they forget that everything is not uniform everywhere (read in each country/State). We could just ignore irrelevant responses and comments for peace of our mind.

you cant avoid getting negative comments in you topics. just answer them back as polite as you could to avoid a heated arguments.that way you gain friends and not adversaries...

Unfortunately, things like this happen all the time here. Even many times with discussions that you are starting here as well. There have been times, that I have gotten discouraged and upset with people here responding back and it makes you wonder where they are coming from. Sometimes they just need to remember to think about feelings a little more before posting back.

jenny1015 Luckily i have not faced any problem with any mylot member. It may primarily because i am old enough and others do not consider me a competitor. I am aware that there can be more one way of looking at issues and that helps me a lot. In fact some times people give suggestions for improvement and I accept them as it is and implement to an extent possible --example i was using abbreviation and I stopped thereafter,

Well, it is a forum and every person has their own opinion so that don't expect 100% is good comments for just say about nice things only...

It's true that getting negative response to what we share may feel bad. but we all all different individuals and we won't always agree with one another's insights about something. With that, i choose to ask the other person about his/her opinion. We can learn about each other's belief without argument and try to have a healthy discussion. I just tell them ok, this is mine and that's yours. we both stick to it. At least we know how we've come up to.

always it is not possible that every one give the comment according to our view that is why this place is favourite for us because we have a freedom to express ourself . so read and enjoy others view .

oh yeah, this is pretty common here in the site, and you cannot really please everyone. i usually am more sad when people do not respond to my discussion than when they are negatively commenting on the discussions i created. i just do not mind them and pretend i did not see their comments. haha :D

Jenny, i had been here for a few years and had my share of up and downs. I had received some positive and some negative responses as well. Even there are some of my discussions that seems don't attract any response. But, i don't mind about it and still continue posting in here. Because i enjoyed being able to share and exchange knowledge with my friends from around the world. Nowadays, i prefer to answer discussion rather than starting my own since i don't have much time to think...Hope to see you more often in here.....

Hi, When we put forward our thoughts, we run the risk of receiving back comments not really in line with what we want to convey or in what we believe as true. People see reality differently thus the myriad and diverse ideas, often contrary to our convictions. If this happen, we should open up our minds to understand them, even of it is against our principle, we should try hard to listen to their message, their stories and their underlying feelings, the very core of the motives that made them express their thoughts. After a while, we shall learn something and we come up with additional information and emerge the wiser person than before. After all, we, as the thinkers, are not obliged to be responsible for the things we believe are contrary to truth and common sense.

There is no way to know if some one rated you as + or -ve, but some times the comment looks harsh I always try to give nice comments using friendly words and rate +ve to all discussions that i reply/comment Thank you so much for this discussion.

Hi, When we get negative comment we feel sad. But we have to accept negative comments sportingly. Because everyone has his own opinions. Some people disagree with us. sometimes we can understand the other side of our thought. That makes us to think differently. So don't get upset by such negative comments. If they are acceptable then keep them in your mind and if you are not agree with them then just neglect them and continue your work and enjoy.

Hi jenny I also feel the same way but keep positive. Mylot users have different point of views so we can expect different opinions and ideas from our them. Though sometimes it's negative but that's their idea we cannot change it. The most important thing is whatever they said be optimistic. Even though we can't expect a positive feedback from other people the mist important thing is to say positive!.... Happy posting!

I have comment on a discussion, and someone didn't like what I said, and the discussion started to get heated, so what I do from now on, is not respond to discussion that will make people upset.

Well we need to remember here that people are people and human, and not everyone will always agree. But the best thing is to be kind like you would in person and try to show some respect. That is always the cool thing here is people come bets from all over with different thoughts and opinions. If we just learn to be courteous and get along more everything will be OK.

I would just tell the person thanks and if I have a point I would say it to them because I like to know others point of view even if I dont agree. I like learning something new so even if they are being rude I would not let them get to me because I know what I stand for .

Don't feel bad with negative comments. You are right that we should not expect everyone to agree with our views/thoughts and certainly we receive negative comments. Later on you will get use to it and you won't be bothered too much. I have been through same situation when I was a newbie here and feels bad whenever I read negative comment/s. As I stayed longer, I have come to get used to it. Just ignore the comment, you can leave the box and don't write anything. Or, you can respond with positive thoughts (reverse psychology)

For me,negative comment is a lesson for us to learning about our mistake.Don't feel sad or shy.When first time i try to make discussion there are a few negative comment and they're said that my english was very bad.No problem with that,then a lot of my friend teach me how to write good english and now i feel better.Just forget it that comment, keep learning and working.

just enjoy the show, jenny. mylot have wide community and we met many people with different perspective, culture and country. we have different point of view in general and specific thing. it is very normal that sometimes we've got negative comment/ reaction, it could be due to our mistake or different opinion. do not take it as much serious thing

I encountered that one time, I just ignore them. Hahaha.
