What One Can Do To Induce People To Give Response To Zero Response Discussions?

try not to start repetitive discussions. before starting, check from the search toolbar (top left hand corner) on whether similar discussions have been started or not. try by asking more thought provoking questions and dont ask anything that require oneliner answer. probably you should also try to get more friends in your list so that they can help by responding to your discussions.

What's been effective to me is that I made a discusion listing my discussion who have no responses and trying to ask my friends list to post so that they can share thier views and I can select best response. Sometimes I tried to private message a friend that I really knew who can answer and give credible post to that discussion who was been there for long time. Hope this be of help.
