I have visited some members' discussions and I could see some getting so many responses to their discussions. Is there any way to make this happen? How can I catch someone's attention and make them respond to my discussions? Can anybody give me some tips? I hope that there will come a time every time I post discussion I will be surprised being inundated with so many responses to respond to. How interesting would that be!

There is no special technique for it. Just interact with the people as much as you can and let them know you, you will find they will come to your discussion every time you start it. Also, you should visit other discussions as I have noticed there are users who respond to your post if you comment on theirs. Always keep in mind, be consistent on the site and interact as much as you can with the people that's the basic.

@DaddyEvil if you're talking about me then it's true. But I could not keep myself away from the site for a long so came back here.

Very nice tips you have there. Thanks my friend. I actually noticed that when you visit someone's discussion and respond, they will most likely do the same.

I think having a good relationship with other Mylotters will be helpful. Such as when you respond more of others' discussions, they will do the same for you.

That makes sense. Give and take so to speak.

@Neil43 That will work with some myLotters but myLot isn't like that. Just because someone talks to me on my discussions doesn't mean I'm going to talk on their discussions. I talk on discussions that interest me.

I am not sure what makes a discussion earn a lot of comments. All I know is you need to be active here.

To be active indeed because this is what most people here say. It makes sense though.

The more you visit the discussions of the other members, the more they will come back to visit yours. It takes a bit of time to have a good interaction.

@Neil43 - Yes, I am among those who get more responses, for several reasons. I visit many discussions every day and I do not write often, so people comment on my more recent for quite a long time.

I see. I thought so too. I remember visiting some of your discussions and you get 100s of responses I think. Wow!

I also wonder too. Some people get 30+ and 50+ responses on every discussion they make. It makes me wonder where this responders came from. But I noticed some people are choosy on who they will respond to. There are some I know that I've never seen them responding to any of my discussion. You can't force anyone to respond. It's their will

@Neil43 yes you are right. I mostly respond to discussions I see when I'm online. Some I miss responding to because I'm offline and won't see it when it is posted.

@mildredtabitha Same situation here. Right, I just feel corresponding here in myLot while waiting for my students to come.

Yes, probably some get to be choosy but it is really difficult to respond to discussion if your purpose is only to get responses back. I think most people here respond to discussions where they most likely can relate to or at least they have an idea about.

Connect with as many as you can here. I think the more you have connections the more chances your posts will be seen here. I think making your post as interesting as possible would also attract many to your post. Interacting with another posts also would make them peek at your post and if they find them interesting, they might just respond to yours.

If you are popular and people like to interact with you. My post may not be attractive to others. You should also make friends with people

Definitely popularity can make your discussions to get good number of responses.

You have to interact a lot and it is time consuming.

Interact a lot could be time consuming though, but I guess you are right. I guess we only have to enjoy while interacting so as not to feel tired doing it.

Get a list of regulars that you respond to their posts. They will eventually respond to your post as well

I think there is no secret, some of my discussions have many comments and other just a few.

@Neil43 I think the secret is to be active here as much as we can.

It could be not a secret but there can be some skills to acquire here. Just I believe.
