Gaining new friends on MyLot can be easy if you adopt these 7 simple ways. I’m not speaking as an expert but I’m sharing these tips based on my own experience. So, your experience may be different from mine and I welcome any tips you would like to add.
1. Always try to reply to any comments on your discussions
2. Take time to reply to discussions of those who commented on your discussions
3. Reply to new discussions – even those who have not replied to yours – if you have something to say.
4. Don’t write condescendingly
Just because you’re good at English doesn’t mean those who aren’t are dumb and you could speak down to them.
5. Avoid generalizations
There will always be good and bad in any country. Avoid generalizations.
6. Interact sincerely
People can detect if you are sincere or not. Always be sincere when interacting because behind every person is an interesting unique story.
7. Be open-minded
We have different personalities, so try to be open-minded. Each country has its own culture and practices. If you’re not doing some of them. Don’t be a snob or don’t show arrogance just because you appear to be more educated, elegant, or wealthy. Learn to accept other cultures from all over the world.
These are only a few of the many things you may want to do if you want to gain more friends here on MyLot.
What about you? What made you gain more friends on this site? I’m sure many would appreciate it a lot if you share these tips with us. Thank you.

I honestly think the key to being here is to be accepting of other's cultures and differences, as well as likes and dislikes. No one is going to agree with everything everyone says or does, they just aren't. It's that way in everyday life, and in places like this. I tend to lean towards this being somewhat of a learning experience--we learn from others, and they learn from us.
Acceptance is the true key, in my opinion. But, that's just me!

I really like this post you made. It's something we all need to think about. We are all different, it's always been that way and it always will be. Like I've said before, you rock!

@Jenaisle 
You're welcome.
I don't like answering the same questions again and again on a discussion. I prefer to talk to people on their discussions instead.
Thanks. You, too.

I’d say agree to disagree if there is ever a topic where opinions clash. Also, don’t just talk about yourself. Ask about the other person. That’s if you’re having a conversation in the comments.

@Jenaisle It can happen that we are commenting and we end up talking only about ourselves without even realizing we are doing it.

This is a really good list you have come up with. Being open minded or understanding is definitely needed with the differences in cultures here.
I so agree there are good and bad in every country!
People who don’t respond to the comments they receive irritate me!

Good tips. I got friends just from talking to people over a long period of time and exchanging information about where we live, etc.
