Do you respond to comments on your MyLot posts?

I am always confused by MyLotters who do not respond to comments on their posts. I think the best way to get rich on MyLot is to encourage conversations that "take on a life of their own." Sometimes said conversations can be quite funny as well. I try to respond to comments on my posts, even before I venture out and visit others' posts. But then I sometimes miss others' posts. What's a fella to do? Do you try to respond to comments on your MyLot posts?

@MarieCoyle I prefer conversations to a post and a comment and nothing more.

I know. Isn't this site about interacting with each other? Not just hopping on here and sort of just demanding attention? Or am I being too harsh on them for never responding?

Sometimes it takes me a day or two, but I try very hard to respond to them all. I do get very discouraged at a few people who post and say, gee, I didn't get much interest on this, did I? And I can think of at least 2 that I enjoy their posts, I comment on them, but they never, ever comment on mine. Very discouraging. I think if you never interact, and just expect people to interact on your posts, you should not be here. But that's just how it is.
And if I miss a few, it's not intentional. I'm sure if you miss any, it isn't, either.

I know I've missed some. Not intentionally. And if I do see one that I have nothing at all left to say, I hit the like button. That's about all I can do if the conversation has pretty much wound down.

I cannot understand those who never respond to comments. I find this attitude a bit selfish and not polite toward those who spend the time to type a comment. I am here because I like interaction, I do not waste my time typing comments that will never receive any kind of interaction.

@TheHorse That's true. Some conversations are really enjoyable.

I do try to respond to all of the comments (except the people who AI generate their replies [and wow, are they easy to pick out]).

@TheHorse — I’ve noticed the increased influx of computer-generated responses meant to present the individual posting them as knowledgeable about the topic on which he/she is commenting. Or somethin’ like that. Sheesh, I can’t even write one of “those” comments as a joke!

Yes. of course! By actively participating in conversations on my posts, I think I am not only fostering a sense of community but also contributing to the richness and diversity of discussions. It's a win-win – I get to share my thoughts, learn from others, and, most importantly, enjoy the social aspect of MyLot.
What's one memorable conversation or comment that stands out to you on MyLot @TheHorse?

Yup! But I also check out everything that's been posted since the last time I was on myLot, too. That's the way you earn enough to buy a Porsche with your myLot earnings...

Yes I do; and I always answer questions. There are some members who do not even answer questions. Have a great day.

I usually do. The only time is when there is nothing to respond to

@TheHorse Not always. I don't respond to comments that are just yes, or no. I mean I will if we have already been talking- but if their initial comment on my post is just a "yes", "no" or "ok: I usually won't respond.

All the time, and I am often quite involved in those wild, long, drawn out conversations—as you are aware of course since you and I have engaged in several of them. I am often confused as well that some don't interact more, especially with their own posts. After all, we call them discussions. Discussions are exactly what that word means. Conversations.

That confuses me too. I try to respond to all the comments I get....because if you can get a conversation going that is probably best!

Usually, but how many times can you say "Thank you" when all they say is "Looks nice." (Since that's a rhetorical question, I don't think it requires a '?' nor a response.) Have a nice day.

I do the obligatory "Thank you" some of the time. But I'll sometimes ask a question that invites further conversation, like "DO you have any similar projects going on right now?" Heck, even "I'm loading my dishwasher" counts as a project to me.

I do try to respond to all comments on my posts, but if the comment is very short or if the conversation has come to a natural end, I always `like' the comment instead of actually writing something in reply. I like it when the discussion changes from the original subject to something completely different,

I had a habit responding to every comment on my post,i think responding is polite to others.Occasionally,i comment a post,but didn't receive any response.Maybe the owner of post forgot to respond,or they ignore my comment on purpose.Anyway,i don't care.just keep responding on my post,that's all.

@TheHorse ,it's a good habit reading other's posts as a return.I often did it when others read my post.
