The Most Embarassing Is I Respond a 2 Years Old Discussion here on myLot.com

I've done it many times. Its just that some old topics are really interesting and I need to add my 2 cents to it. Nothing to worry about as long as you are replying something relevant.

It's not like working for a news-network ... we're more like an 'ageless wisdom'-network. Sure, maybe the matter the starter discussed was something then-current in their life; but it's NOW-current on myLot! And if it is something the discussion starter wants to forget, it's THEIR responsibility to either delete the old discussion (i.e. to tell admin to get rid of it) or cut off their ties with myLot and leave more money for US

No reason to be embarrassed! Respond to any discussion where you have something relevant to say! There is some common misconception here that you should only participate in discussions where the thread starter / original poster is still around. That's not true... other people can continue to discuss subjects of interest whether or not that person is still going to participate! While it's great if they are still around to keep it going, the original poster does not "own" the discussion -- others can keep it lively, too. When you contribute to an old discussion, it'll bump it up so others see it and it can potentially revive a topic of interest to many. You earn through what you type here... regardless of the age of the discussion

don't sweat it,it's not a big deal. i think most people miss the date in the corner once in a while,i know i do. as long as the topic's still pretty relevant,i could care less if somebody responds to an older one of mine.i'd still answer it.

A pleasant day IntrovertShy, As far as I know, it is fine to respond an old discussion, hence, it doesn't have anything to do with earnings. Thus, if you participate, an earning will be credited on your participation. However, you may still check this with the Mylot Admin to make it sure. But don't feel so embarrassed.

What is wrong with an old discussion ? I find it good to respond to a 2 year discussion because i am confident that it is a quality discussion hence until now it is alive meaning it is not deleted by the admin so it simply tells us that it was such a good kind of a discussion and it is sure that we will earn from here unlike in a fresh one wherein we won't be sure if it will be deleted or not . So just enjoy joining those old ones here as much as i am also. God bless !

Personally to many of us, it does not matter how old or new a discussion is when responding back to it. Especially if the person is still active in here. I know I respond back in older discussions all the time, and from time to time have an older one of mine brought back to life. I know with mine any that are on the top 10 are discussions I make surd to respond back too and resolve before.moving on. Even if they arereally old discussions.

If you respond to older discussions, the topic starter, if they're still around, will be happy, especially if that topic has no responses to it. Responding to any topic also helps the topic starter to resolve their discussions, something hard to do if there are not enough responses on them. So continue to respond to any discussion you want to, no matter how old it is. You never know who will respond to it afterward.

hi introvertshy do not be as a lot of us older ones are s till here I h ave been here or five years so my old discussions are still viable and I love it when someone responds to them. you will get paid anytime you respond to any discussion no matter how old unless its broke some my lot rule so you did not waste your time and a lot of people do enjoy some of the older discussions so why not go to them occasionally?.

I do that all the time actually, because I am only looking at the question or the discussion and not how long it has been there. You get paid on it either way though. I mean you may not get a response, but you never know. I have seen a lot of discussions that have no responses and sometimes you can respond and to your surprise that person response back. I write in a few interest categories that I am in and I do not always get a response, but sometimes it comes a few months later haha. Good Luck and have fun.

It doesn't matter how old the discussion is, because when you respond you ear. I have responded to old discussions and earned from them, and besides some of the old discussions are bettter than the new ones out there, and so when I find one that is interesting to me and it is an old one, I will respond. About two weeks ago, I received a notification of a response to one of my discussions, and that discussion is 3 years old. So you see, there are people out there that will respond to older discussions, as long as they are interesting enough to get responses. So, respond to all the older ones you want, as you will still get paid as long as it is of a good quality. Take care, and have a very good day.

First of all, how old the discussion is does not affect your earnings. So you can respond to a 6 years old discussion and still be able to earn. It is also not necessary that the old discussion is of no importance today. Some discussions just dont diminish in importance ever. One should respond to a discussion to record what they feel. By doing this you have brought that discussion back into circulation and it may just happen that there were people who had not seen before but saw it now. It could be that some more people also wanted to discuss on the topic. Who knows? I have responded to even a six year old too just because I had a discussion in mind and suddenly saw it there on mylot. I couldnt stop myself but comment.

As far my knowledge goes, you always earn even in responding to old discussions. So always try to respond to old discussions.

I guess there's nothing wrong with responding old discussions. I sometimes respond to old discussions too. There were even some responses to my old discussions. Don't feel embarrassed about it.

Only two years old!!! You could respond to some that are six years old, almost seven years old. I think MyLot came in to being in the spring of 2006. The really nice thing is that when you respond to an old discussion it comes up as a "recent" discussion and the person who started that discussion has a chance to earn from it some more, by commenting on your response. Then it becomes "recent" again, and others who like that discussion get a chance to see it and participate. It is a good thing, and nothing to be embarrassed about. I have had people bring up some of my very old discussions and it was interesting to see them again. I am a better user now and I may do more commenting back to other users.

Oh, don't be embarrass. No worries about. I think its good that you joined that discussion. As long as it interests you and the discussion is good, why hold back? It is a good thing to answer or reply to old discussion.

So this means I can still go back to my unresolved discussion from three years ago, right? I just saw the thread had 70 responses and I forgot all about it.

Hi, I think there is nothing wrong or embarrassing to respond old discussion. you can respond any discussion which you feel interesting. I also respond some old discussions. I don't feel it embarrassing.

I do this all the time, dont worry, and besides you can't be as productive if you don't find ways to be productive, even if it entails digging up old discussions. I respond to discussions 6-7 years back.

I was about to do that too once, but when I was about to send my response, I saw it was a very old discussion... I think they should be moved by admins into an archive or something like this, to stop confusing us xD.
