Will you please read the discussion again.....

Well I just responded of what I believed what I understand. And upon reading those who respond too it seems we do have the same understanding.

Oh no!! My apologies, dpk! Ok, I just reread your discussion several times. Are you saying that people are NOW commenting to YOUR responses to OTHER PEOPLE's discussions that were posted a while ago? If that is the case, I think my comment to your discussion would almost be the same. It may not have been your discussion, but for someone to comment on your response would still be commenting to an old discussion (the discussion as a whole). But I think I see what you mean . . . if you were to get a comment on your comment from long ago, you would have to reread the discussion to understand what they were talking about! And if it's the person to whom your were commenting to, oh yes, it's definitely a LATE comment back! Maybe they did not see your comment the first time around and just came back to the discussion themselves to discover it? I guess my reaction would be that at least someone read my comment (because sometimes we're not too sure). So it's nice to know see that someone will actually comment on a comment - even if it takes a million years - hee hee!! But back to THIS discussion! I think perhaps the emphasis was on the time (beit years or months) of a discussion so people automatically jumped to thinking "old discussions" . . . comments, responses, posts are one in the same at that point, I guess. You did indeed say "comments on responses", but I did not think about that clearly - so sorry, my friend!! Oh yes, it happens to me too that some of the answers are way off the mark. Like on another discussion, I was talking about someone else, and the person kept giving ME advice on what I should do (but it wasn't about me!!!!!). Sigh. Well, it happens, dpk. No wonder life is full of misunderstandings sometimes, right?!

I just responded to your 'comments after many years' discussion, I hope I got what you asked. It is interesting thought that at times when responding to a discussion, you start off answering the question, and before you know it, you are taken to a totally different place. In response to your questions above. The discussion seemed quite straightforward.

This happens to me plenty of times as well, and it can be a bit discouraging. Atleast a few did understand. Sometimes I try to make the others understand as well, sometmes it's a matter of being lost in translation.

Hi deepak once again, i feel so sorry for what you felt. But i would say it happens. Its unfortunate that not one or two but a few people did not get your message as you intended. infact i agree with your conclusions. and i would say i have learnt my lesson out of your experience to ensure that when ever i post i would ensure that my message is read as i intend to. Placement of few words here and there makes all the difference. and since mylot is a global platform, people may read the discussion differently. Yeah the other thing is to revert to a friend that he did not understand the message correctly ....its difficult for sure. hope you handled it in a nice way.

Sometimes people just get carried away without reading things properly.

Any hair left????

hmnnnnnnnnnnnn............. NONE OF THE ABOVE And I did not read this topic as well

There is a lot of vodka flowing here and there on this site. Could that be the reason?

Is that why I did not get a comment on my response to the discussion? Ah, well, If you are starting to get strict, stiff, stuffy and need exact answers, I guess I am not the one to give it...

hi dpk, I am not feeling well and I am lazy to read this topic of yours But I want to participate here I hope you don't mind

there are many possibilities, dpk. I always read carefully before response a discussion, but once in mylot, even I had read carefully the discussion, I did wrong response... I'm really guilty about that, I think I'm in hurry

I think i too replied in the topic, but i read it well before placing my reply. It is really hard to understand what you think in your mind while creating that topic, you must explain it well to get the desired replies, if most of the mylotters are replied in the same sort, then the mistake is not from there side. Since not every one will think in the same mistaken way. I think only the one or two myloters have the ability to read out your mind and replied your topic well. May be they are your best friends

Good feeling yeh. Okay nice that you will have someone whom you know and will make you comfortable at the first place. Have fun at the training. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.

I did not read the full discussion. I most times go through the discussions quickly if it is a big discussion. I think some discussions do convey meanings and some discussions do not. Sometimes I start discussions with topics in my mind and sometimes I start discussions without any topics in my mind.

hi dpk I do not think I responded to that but I am confused by the comments after many years.whose camments to what after what year?If you were not talking about your own comments after many years what the devil were you talking about. the many years you have been here or just what? I guess I need to r ead your discussion t o understand it. I ha ve had people come up with some really odd responses that showed they did not read all the discussion at all just the title. this is j ust not right.

I am at a loss for words also due to the fact that the actual discussion you are talking about was ommitted from your post so I have no idea what you are talking about. I recently had posted a discussion which was toltally misunderstood. I got one of probably 20 plus responses that actually got what I was trying to get across.

Hi deepak, It does happen sometimes mostly with newer members who may not really know how to post, but the older members post only what is relevant and add a lot of other related information as well..In you case, as you rightly say , they probably did not understand the discussion topic, you think so ? all the best, will look up your other discussion as well just to see the responses..

I did not read the discussion and am not entirely sure why you are angry but I am very intersted in the fact that you can split hairs I have nevr been able to accomplish this act and would love ot knw how you do it. Is it hard to learn?

My views are expensive..they are going to the parliament for discussion. So if you want them, we need to negotiate some price.. What did you want to know anyway..
