A lot of my responses are unanswered

@mayka123 I understand.There are some here who never comment back on responses.This has happened with me,too.

Well, it depends on the person who is mylotting. We all have our own strategy that we use when it comes to mylot. Others check their notification first, others discussions or vice versa. But if someone replied to your post, it is indeed good if you can reply on that.

I have also noticed that many my responses didn't get a comment from the person who started the discussion. Sometimes people aren't able to comment back because they are busy with other things or because they missed the notification etc, I understand that. But I don't think that it is good thing to start a lot of discussions and never comment back on any of them. I appreciate that people took time to respond to my discussions, and I always try to comment back.

I totally agree with you. It should be that they at least comment back on our responses. But I think, they have become so busy after posting that they weren't able to see the responses. I hope it's that way and get back as soon as they can to answer the responses.

This is very common, many do not reply and I finally do not comment anymore to their discussion. It is also true that some takes ages before coming back, but sooner or later they reply.

On most of the days, I check my notifications and answer to all of them. From last few days, I just couldn't read or respond to any discussions as answering to all the notifications took all the time. So today I decided to just check discussions and respond to them. I am keeping the notifications waiting till tomorrow. I am going to take my daughter to music class tomorrow morning and I will use that waiting time to answer to all the notifications. I definitely like to answer and respond back to all responses. That keeps the interactions going and that is what myLot is all about.

I don't have the habit of checking the topics to know whether some one replied or not. I works on notifications and those who do not respond back, then probably I may not get any idea on that. So no tensions in that way.

It does not matter to me, I always try to respond to everything in the notification if I have time. If there is no time I usually respond later after I finish the other activities.

This is just my opinion but... I wouldn't care about it too much. I responded, they didn't. So be it. I can't force them to do things the way I do things. I can only control what I do. Plus, to give them the benefit of the doubt... I was recently gone from here for just one week. I expected that when I returned, I can just look at my notifications to see the responses to the 3 discussions I posted before I left. But lo and behold, the only things in my notifications page are from that day I came back, regarding my responses to other people's discussions. Notifications about responses to my discussions have apparently disappeared (within just one week!) I had to go to my discussions list to check them.

so do i, but just go on buddy

I also need to reply to the comments on my posts. Most of the time, late tbough. But it would be really nice to response to show respect and courtesy.

i know it seems that way. but i think if everybody on the website continues to stay active mylot would continue as a growing community to it's full potential. i think it takes time and energy to continue to interact on a regular basis online similarly than it does in person. but probably not as much energy to interact and stay active online as it would be in person.

Yes I agree with you on that.. I am responding to other's discussions and I am replying to my notifications as long as I can

If someone acknowledged my comment, that's great, at least someone ready took the time to read it or at at least have noticed it; if it was not acknowledge, it's still okay.

I am such a lazy person who forget to comment back and this is why I don't mind if someone doesn't respond to mine. But the thing is we should always comment back on the responses we get on our discussions.

I agree. I don't think you have responded to mine because I do respond

Yes that's the minimum courtesy to respond

On my part, I see to it that I replied back or just even liking the responses that I've got.

I always try to get back to every responses I get as to return the favor. If I don't have anything to say, I'll reply with a smiley or just like it but I always try to respond because common courtesy :)

My main concern is that some don't answer what is being discussed. I don't mind the eventually they will kind of thing, but it is a little on the polite side to answer the related question, in my opinion.
