hello, mylot folks! i promised myself i will post something first before answering notifications and visiting other people's discussions. so here it is! the way i visit mylot is to click mylot admin's profile first (which i have bookmarked). why? to see if he/them posted any announcements or updates, or if they responded to a fellow mylotter to clarify something. then i go to the top discussions. i know others ignore that page, but for me it shows me what topics people were talking about while i was offline. as i go through the titles and read the first few sentences, i would right-click the ones i'm interested in to open in a new page. now i have 32 tabs/discussions open! now i'm ready to log in and start reading and responding to them... IF i have something to add. if not, i'll just like the discussion and/or the responses/comments. have you bookmarked mylot on your computer or phone? do you log out of mylot or not? which categories do you ignore? do you visit mylot admin's profile? i always ask too many questions, don't i? see you around!

We each have what works best for us. Obviously you don’t care for my discussions. Perhaps I should log out.

if just browsing, i can check mylot on the tablet and phone. but if interacting, i use the pc. i only bookmarked admin's profile so i never forget to check his activity. but i always log out of all sites before shutting down.

Funny thing is I was about to do the same thing. I try to go through all my notifications, but it’s getting harder now because so many are coming in. I read the discussion title and delete the ones with the same title to narrow it down, then visit each one. I tend to check the “no responses” category first (which is how I got here) I figure the posts in the most popular category don’t have any trouble getting responses. I’ve seen some with over 60. Meanwhile the other people are sitting and waiting f their post to get a response to it, or if anyone even read it. I don’t open new tabs because I have too many open as it is (here’s the part where I’m supposed to say lol, but I won’t, because it’s not all that funny if it is funny at all and it ain’t. I do the same thing, if I have nothing to say in response then I just hit like to indicate that I have read it and don’t have a response.i’ve never seen the admin profile. Mylot isn’t bookmarked because the search bar shows it up as a suggestion automatically. No, I rarely log out, to much work to log in and out and back in again. Not that much work, but if I don’t have to do something then I’m probably not gonna do it. I don’t ignore any of them, I visit some categories less often than others.

Questions are always good conversation starters . I bookmark nothing . I mostly go to Recent Discussions . . . with the time that I have, that gives me the latest posts by everyone . . . that being said, I mostly don't look at the rest (but I never say never about that). Someone usually "suggests" mylot admin posts . . . but yah, I think I should take a peek more often .

@hereandthere That is perfectly fine too. Questions make it easier for those who don't know what else to say.

i just try to make the questions related to the discussion. but it's okay if they skip them and comment on something else about the post.

I open all notifications as I work through each site and respond to them first. That works for me. I don't ignore anyone who responds to me and try to visit every post I possibly can.

I have myLot as a tab in the top bar. I go to 'Follows' and 'Their Discussions' and start from there.

I don't do that since I already have other tabs opened. I might be unable to load them all.

Whatever works best for you is how you should do your notifications. We're all different.

since i was back here at the end of may, i am now answering my notifications once i make a new discussion. i may leave the site if i have something to do, then come back to respond to comments. i do not wish to reach more than a hundred notifications anymore.

No, I don´t bookmark mylot on my computer. I lof out of Mylot when I am not using it. I have no idea if I ignore a category. I read when I find the discussion interesting. Very seldom.

I also start checking the Admin profile, soon after I go to my notifications. I never start reading new discussions if I have not replied to those who are chatting with my. I do not use my phone for myLot.

First I write a single post, then I check messages, then I do my notifications. If I have time, I read and reply to everything new from the people I follow. Only then do I go exploring IF i have time, but usually I do not.
