Do you go back to the discussions you responded to?

After you responded to a discussion, do you go back and check what others posted/replied to the topic (e.g., after a few hours, a day, a few days)? Or do you just go on and find another topic of interest to respond to?

not really. there are too many discussions, can't find time to read all. i just look for another topic that interests me and post my comments as well.

I usually go back to my own discussions cause particularly, I want to know what other people have to say. Precisely because that's the reason I posted the topic, to know other people's insights and ideas. For other topics, I sometimes check also the response of others especially if it's very interesting topic and if I can really gain something out of it.

I agree with you totally. Seeing someone else's view on some matters can be eye-opening, at least that's what I have experienced. Granted I don't always respond to the discussions I choose to read, but I learn a whole lot!

Almost always I go back the next day to see what the people write and sometimes I add comment.I believe this is the right thing to do.As I always add comments to the responses I I take to my topics.

I try to go back through all the discussions that I have previously responded to, to see if anyone has commented on what I have said or just out of curiousity read what others have voiced as their opinion. After all this site isn't only about posting but actually turning that post into something of a discussion. (if that makes any sense)

Oh, sometimes i do go back to the discussions i have responded. It depends if the topic is really interesting. I like reading others' opinions. And sometimes i add comments to what others' had responded too.

I normally go back the next day to check if anyone has responded to my response. Then I will check that discussion again within the week. Eventually I will make my way back to the discussion, out of curiosity. I enjoy reading other's responses more than I enjoy earning the few cents a day that I earn.

It seems to build friendships which helps me find interesting discussions easily. Usually I will find someone who seems to be participating in the same discussions as myself with the same opinion. THose are the first ones to send a friend request. Then there are those that I have no clue why they chose me

i always check out if someone of the owner of the discussion make some comment to my response cause that only means he pay attention to whatever the respondents are saying. in that way the discussion keeps going so checking out your responses can make us enjoy more the iste.

Most of the time I will go back and see what comments if any have been made. If I have asked for more information or something like that I always go back and check. It also depends on how interesting the discussion was.
