People post discussion or question which I started so long but not exactly 100% match with my question just a little difference say if I start: "What fruint you like best?" another one will ask "Do you like fruit what are that?" so response is like same but what can I do. I found that we are from different destination or country but our mind nearly same so we ask same question. Not 100% copy others. This is natural habit of human so far I think.

Yes there most certainly are people who steal discussions from others and it has happened to me a few times. I have reported the person concerned and in at least 2 instances that I know of, the people have been banned from myLot. The good thing is that myLot take a very dim view of this sort of thing and so do act fairly quickly to stop it from recurring. So if it happens you just hit the (!) on the far right of their discussion and send your comments to myLot, who will then deal with the matter.
One of the things that is happening though is that some of these cheats are getting smarter, and so they just change a few words and then it doesn't look quite the same. I had one instance where someone on my list of friends actually responded to my discussion and then posted the same one (with a few words modified) as her own discussion. I was so mad but luckily myLot saw my way of thinking and acted upon my complaint. Now if this person hadn't responded to my discussion, there would probably have not been much that myLot could do.
So, if you think someone/anyone has copied your discussion and the wording, then go to their discussion and hit the (!) key and let myLot sort it out.

People copy my questions all the time and somehow they always end up with more responses. It's pretty frustrating. I can definitely empathize with you.

Your observations may be right. I just don't know why, but there are some people who cannot do something original, so what they do, is either imitate or copy someone elses' work. It may be diappointing but, I doubt it that much can be done with them. Just ignore them and go on. If you won't do this they'll annoy you and bring your spirits down, bringing you towards the losing end. So, the best solution is just to go on and keep it up.
