No Response

Hi, redrose! Maybe the reason why there were no one who responded to your post is because it is either a similar discussion has been posted already or it was lacking something that invites people to comment on. Don't be sad about it, though. Just make your discussions a bit unique and interesting. I am sure a lot would be responding to that.

Hi, I have a discussion one year ago and I can't give a best response for lack of response therein, not even one. I don't know why, maybe it was too pathetic or due to lack of taste. I have considered deleting it but I'll have just to wait a little bit more.

hi redredrose I was upset when new and an older mylotter told me to get my name into peoples eyes by responding a lot to their discussions so that they will look and see your response and say " oh that redredrose is really a good responder so I am going to check her discussions and respond back to her. you have to get noticed a lot then people will start responding also make many friends as that will get responses too. mylot friends tend to respond to each other a lot. good luck and God 'Bless.

Some people probably don't respond because their not exactly sure what to reply back without sounding stupid or misunderstanding of what your discussion was about. I have had discussions as well where nobody responded to them and some where a lot of people responded to it. It just depends if a person is interested in the topic or not. Hang in there you will get responses to your discussions just keep checking back on them.

If your topic is kinda interesting, then people will responds to your discussions...but if mylotters have no idea on what your topic is and that they cannot contribute a lot with it, then, expect that it will not be responded.

As for me, When I am here in my lot my first thing is to look for the discussion that are listed in the today's top, then one by one I search for what I am interested to response. Then after browsing the today's top I next looked at the discussion I am interested or in the list of my interest. I think creativity is also a must in making a discussion for us to get some responses here. ^_^

I see you only have 7 friends right now. It will help if you get to add more friends here because your discussions appear on your friend's main page where it says Discussions My Friends Started. That should get your discussion noticed. But of course you gotta make sure that the content AND the title of the discussion are interesting and relatable. Until about a week ago, I had one discussion that had no replies. But then a couple of my friends for some reason started responding to my old discussions. Thanks to them I was able to clean up my unresolved discussions. If not for them one discussion can never be resolved because I wouldn't be able to choose a best response.

I can assure you that there are heaps of discussions started by many myLot users that does not have responses to them. That is why myLot has even set up a page for discussions with no responses (hover over the "discussions" tab on the main myLot page, and in the drop down list look for the "no response" button). Most of the discussions that go without responses are either too technical-based (eg. discussing about specific things or topics which only a handful of people know about such as computer mechanics), doesn't provide a suitable premise for discussion (ie. too factual-based) or is just not interesting enough to capture the attention of other myLot members (which is why catchy discussion headlines are really useful). I know it can be disheartening not getting any responses for the discussion you start, but even if you don't get any responses after a week, you might still get a response some time in the future a people can search for discussions using the myLot search engine and discussions stay on the myLot site indefinitely unless they violate the myLot guidelines. Happy myLotting in the meantime!

It happens sometimes. Discussions one may start may go unresponded to. I understand your worry, but it really is nothing to worry about. I would continue participating in discussions as well as start discussions and be ready when someone responds to me. It really is a matter of mylotters making their choices on how to mylot. For me, there are no obligations, just choices.

Build up a friendship base by answering discussions from people on Mylot BEFORE just requesting a friendship. I do not accept friendship requests from persons who have even answered one discussion of mine. You could stop posting discussions for a while and concentrate on answering other people's posts. This may help you. It is difficult at first but when you make a friend then be a good friend and remember to answer their posts when they answer your post. Friendship works both ways. Good luck

that happens,try to make it even more crisper to be sure always

I can relate here since I have several discussions that i started that has 0 response. I felt really bad, initially, but when I check on the list of discussions and open my eyes to several discussions that are unanswered, I felt that i was not the only one having this experience. That's why, i think more than twice if I'm about to start one. I hope I can start some interesting, fresh new ideas moving forward. Thanks

Yes, I think it indeed is a problem that make mylotters headache. I don't know what kind of topics that people are interested in, so now I just want to make responds to others.

I had some posted discussions that has zero feedback, don't worry it's all normal here in myLot that some of your posted discussions has no replies. We all know that we can't please everybody, and that some of our interests are not the interest of some people. I think the best way that you have more replies on some of your discussions, choose a discussion of interests that has more people commenting it. Be it technology,internet, relationship etc. Make it timely so that people can relate to it. Lastly, make a discussion with quality as possible.

This never happened with me even when I am a newbie. Anyway, don't be sad if your topic has no responses at all. Here's what I can suggest for the meantime- first- try to respond to other mylotters topic and discussion.Try to be more active second- add more friends The more you respond and participate with other mylotters will give you the chance to inter-act with other mylotters and will also increase your activity. One reason why your topic is left un-answered maybe is- you have limited friends. The time also plays a big factor - maybe you posted your topic wherein there are only few mylotters who came online. We know very well that mylotters come from different part of the globe and time difference is a big factor. but then again don't feel bad about it. Just keep mylotting and enjoy the site

Hi redrose! A pleasant day to you! Personally, after I made a reply to those who responded to my discussions, I would proceed to the discussions my friends started. Although it would still depend on my idea about the subject, but still my priorities are my friends. Then I will proceed to those topics of my interests.But still even discussions started by friends, there are still times that I could not make a reply because I have no idea on the topic. I also have some discussions which has no responses up to date and it's okay because I understand the situation. Sometimes, the title has something to do also.

Try to find ways to capture the attention of the members. Try to be creative in maing your title. I am sure they will respond to you. Good day!
