why dont people respond to good topics

I believe it is because a great deal of myLoters believe in quantity and not quality. After all, it takes a little more effort to put your thoughts down (that is if you have any thoughts) and that means you wont make User of the Day.

To be honest, I think a lot of people here could give a rats behind what kinds of conversations are going on here. They just care about the fact that they are making money. Which to me, is sad. I like some of the "good" conversations here and I've learned a lot from this site as well.

They seem to get buried under the other discussions too quickly. Sometimes people don't want to respond to topics that are going to require them to type lengthy answers - slows down their earnings too much.

it depends on the view you have on a particular topic. sometimes it happens that the topic you like the most is the topic which is least liked by others.

I think people just don't want to "waste" their time with long responses when they could be making a lot of posts and earning money. The way I see it, we're not earning enough money here for me to think of it as a "job". I don't want to waste my time responding to a bunch of stupid posts in hopes of earning a few pennies per hour. I'd rather participate in intelligent discussions and debate important topics. So far, I think this site is proving that you can't buy members that will have the intelligent conversations found on some message boards. While I've found a few great discussions, it seems that the majority of members just do not spend their time thinking about anything important.

i totally agree with you. most of the topics in DISCUSSIONS WITH NO RESPONSE are really thought evoking and cud have been really informative. but they are without any answers, im really sorry. most of us here are for good quick money and go for random answering, instead of pickin the qualitative ones. we shud concentrate on QUALITY and not on QUANTITY and mylot team shud make sure quality content gets cudos. thanx

That's a fantastic question! I really appreciate it. you literally took the idea right out of my mind! I too have felt the same. I post contemporary and raving issues, yet I have had only 1,2...10 responses! you may please visit my 'discussions posted' page and see them. Nice to find that someone feels like I do!

Sadly a lot of people only want to respond with a no or yes answer and there are plenty of discussions which start off, Tom Cruise or Brad Pitt, or do you like icecream. Sadly this is very true and discussions which ask you to THINK and give a lengthy response as to why this is so, or to get involved in a particular argument or a particular view puts a lot of people off. Trouble is a lot of people don't realise that yes and no response do NOT earn money here. Yes and discussions do quickly get buried. I have seen a lot of really good meaty discussions which deserve to be responded to get only one or two responses yet something like Tom Cruise or Brad Pitt will get 100+ responses...

most probably because such discussions take lot of typing and thinking resulting in slower earning. People hererespond to stupid discussions more as they dont require much brains and thus getting them more points

I find that a lot of the time when I post a new topic, it gets buried very quickly. I imagine this happens to a lot of people's topics.

whrs the good topic most of them i find one word question...which country ??...like this ??....like that ?? aaaah fed up of answering such questions...

I know what you mean. I have to refresh the front page many times sometimes before I find something worth responding to. Very rarely do I resond to the simple ones like, favorite color, what time is it, male female. I'm glad I'm not the only one that feels this way.

i guess... to much thinking.. ^_^

Not quite sure, but I guess it´s about time. People try to pst more into the topics "this or that" saying "yes or no", rather than making quality posts and some more larger replies. Also, people don´t rate or tend not to rate other´s responds. I do, as that´s my way to say thanks to the ones that read me and post in my discussions. I also try to search for some interesting discussions and try to reply to them as well.

i too wonder why people dont.

may be they do not like it

may be they do not like it

you think your topic is good one,but others don't think so.

whrs the good topic most of them i find one word question...which country??...like this??....like that?? aaaah fed up of answering such questions...

because 'good' is very relative. what's good for you, not necessarily good for others.
