After how many responces will you mark the best response?

In your case I think you receive more often than you give... At least that's what I've observed since I've been here... Most of your discussions are impossible to award one best response...

Sometimes I do set off with the intent of awarding some but then I have to five up as there are so many deserving it I no longer receive the notifier when I receive a BR and I feel bad about not thnking immediately. Usuallly I see that I received one a long time afterwards when I go back to add something else

Oh, I see your name "received a best response in the discussion so and so by so and so" on my home page almost daily... Just like the notifier, you will have a hard time keeping up with the thank you's

There is always an advantage which we cannot identify. I noticed it few times.

There are no extra earnings when we receive a Best Response but it is certainly a good feeling to receive it

Some people go to a textile shop. go to one or two counters -- ask the shop keeper to display a few designs-- they select one among them and go home. some people start in the morning after breakfast -- go to one shop --go to all the counters -- ask the shopkeeper display all the items -- not selecting --return back to home for lunch, take nap--start again in the evening go to the same shop or another shop --go round and round and then select one. Same way some of us select best response early. some of us select after so many months and years. Now I am in the category of people selecting after a few months. In the beginning i use to decide within a week. Now probably more work--more discussions and it takes more time/ take your own time and decide. Once you decide you should not feel i may get another good response after this. selecting of best response --yes sometimes it prompts people not to respond.

Hi asylum, thanks for the response and keep on mylotting so much to earn more money

Thanks for the response but if we wait for the replies...if the first is best then also wait for few more to pour because there may be new one which touches your heart

That seems a pretty good approach. If you consider a response to be a very worthwhile one then marking it as a best response makes sense. Also, as sunny5u has said, there is no right or wrong in this. We all have different opinions and it is ultimately our own opinion that matters.

Hi Sarah, remember one thing in this world everyone have the that they are right. And each one have their own thoughts. So, coming to here there is no right or wrong but to decide we need more responses

Thanks for the response. This shows how much you go through the response.

Aries: many weeks --no problem. There are people having arrears in terms of number of years. you seem to be doing well. sunny you have your own way of deciding things. now that you started this discussion--i will select for a few of my discussions today.

Hi adforme, I hope you better mark best response. So, that people get excited about your questions. Do that if you like too.

I guess I should consider who is best. After all, my responders are few and far between; it should be easy. LOL.

Thanks for post. What you said is true if we keep on responding so that some day we get best response. And many people like that. Thank you.

Hi, it's a good thing you are doing. It's better you wait for few more days. Continue mylotting.

Thanks for the response. And doing a good job by waiting for more responses but at last give best response.

Thanks for the response. You are doing a great job but keep posting more discussions so that more things will be known to people by you. Happy mylotting.

Oh, I try to start up to three discussions a day (except on Sabbath, when I let myself post as many or as few as I feel like: one after I check if any unresolved discussions need me to choose a BR, one after I finish responding to my email-notifications, and one after I've responded to the whole first page of my started discussions.
