It has been quite some time since I have been facing this problem. I used to answer the stupid questions asked here on myLot but then it took its toll on my mentality. So I just put it aside and started looking for the worthwhile topics to respond to. And it is quite often that I log in into myLot and find not even a single thread worth debating or responding to. How many of you out there face this problem?

It's a rampant problem because too many people are out to make an extra penny.
I think myLot has handled it well by paying topic starters based on responses. I wonder if releasing the algorithm (or at least part of it) would correct this problem.

Besides the penny makers there is one more aspect of the mindless posts. In the frenzy of building their posts in numbers and activity of course plus have nothing concrete to discuss they tend to dwarf with mindless chatter. Yeah, releasing algorithm could possibly solve the problem but then there is a way where there is a well...

Well....I think statements instead of questions are more of encouragements to add your views about something already agreed upon. You are not always required to answer to solve a problem, people sometimes expect you to evaluate your side of the point...that is. I find statements more amusing than plain simple questions. How about "What mobile and brand you use or like?" This is a question and questions like these always bore me, I frequently change my mobiles, how am I suppose to answer that and what is the point anyway?

Hey hi, well i face this sometime but not always,i am enjoying time in mylot as i am getting so many friends across the world morever i am learning so many things here with variety of opinion of friends,as here you can make money just by answering discussions on mylot, and starting new discussions too, infact you can boost your earning by uploading photos, so keep posting quality responses, keep searching good discussions about which you know something and can answer, strictly avoid one liner posts,best luck and happy earning!!!...cheers!!

I've run into this and I'm relatively new. I don't see much point in responding to some of these things. You can tell the drive behind some of the posts here is simply to earn more money. With as little as you earn in certain lengths of time, I don't pay attention to what I'm earning that much and just try to find good discussions.
Another problem I've run into is that people don't go back to discussions or read other comments to discussions. There will be 100 comments but all those comments are replying only to the original post and nobody is replying to any of the comments to keep the discussion going. Discussions aren't just question and answer things.
