Old Discussions

I respond to those discussions when they seem interesting. When you respond, they are brought to life again and other people can see it. Maybe the person who posted it is not here anymore, but this site is about ideas and interests so go on. If it has not been deleted, it might be a nice discussion.

Yes, you can still respond to old discussions. It's just many of the starters of those old discussions may not be active anymore; so the chance of you getting a comment back from them are slim. But any one who happens to catch the old discussions while it is being brought back can also add responses and comments to them...

There are many times I have been known to respond back in a discussion that was started this long ago, and if it is one I have never responded back too, especially if I know the person is still active here, that is a Good thing. Personally since we get paid for any discussion we decide to respond back in, I never think twice most of the time about responding back in.

Hi lynnes75, there isn't any restriction old discussions are closed for comments. If new responses on old discussions don't have any comments like what you have noticed might be the creators of those discussions are no longer active here anymore. Or the writers are busy on their new discussions only most probably due to the lack of time. Discussions without any comments added not only happen in old discussions only, I can see many new discussions writers don't comment back their new topics as well. Some just comment back to certain amount of responses only, whereas the the following responses or response page are blank with any comments. For those who take good care of their discussion would comment back to both their old and new discussions now and then. Discussions with similar topics and contents having the fate to be deleted due to discussion guidelines. If not they are not been found and reported yet Happy posting and have a nice day

Hi ! There is no bar on responding to old posts. If any post evince interest you may post your response. You could respond to any post even if the user (host) has already decided the 'best response'. If the user is active and responsive, s/he may post comments on your response.

i comment on the old discussion whenever I come across a interested one . Its ok to do so , its is just that they are harder to find and you will probably not get a respond but I dont mind because I am earning any way .

Of course you can,and the age of a discussion is not really relevant. The only reason that these discussions have not received any responses for such a long time is that when members do not respond for a while the discussion moves further down the listings and is not noticed as much. The only ways to find these discussions would be either searching for a discussion on that topic or by checking the starter's profile page. If you respond to an old discussion it will reappear in the recent list, and may well become quite active again.

Ressurecting old discussions is fun! I do it from time to time and what's more fun is seeing others also respond after you. Although it's possible that may not be the case most of the time because the owner of the discussion may mo longer be active and even those who responded before. But if an old discussion catches your interest, why wouldn't it be possible that other mylotters will find it interesting too?

Lynn, we can always respond to any discussion as much as we like to. Sometimes, i do respond to some old and interesting discussions which i seems to have ideas to share. As far as i know, the discussions in this site is never close. Any time we can search and respond to any discussion which is interesting. Have a nice posting experience in here...

I would encourage you to respond to any old discussion you like. I don't tend to because often the author is no longer active on the site and I like to get responses to my comments. This is a discussion site and I prefer to see a little back and forth.

Mylot is a place where we can enjoy our each other's thinkings. If you feel inerest then you can read, respond or comment on all old topics. So far your knowledge, if any knowledge exists in here we need not copy it as we have enjoyed it already. Rather we can start a new topic. You can gather knowledge to create a new topic in a creative way. Many a times we can find serious informations in some old discussions.

So far as I am aware, none of the discussions posted here ever have an expiration date and remain open until you or admin takes them down. So, yes. Like this post here from 2012 I can still respond to it. Although, I am doing so in THIS case knowing I will never get a response from it. But that's okay. I guess I will let myLot have the penny no one else will otherwise get, and MAYBE that helps the site? I have no idea, but nonetheless, I do it anyway. lol
