When you answer a discussion on Mylot

For my friends discussions, I always opened it from my email so I can't read other responses first. Actually for other discussions also. As long as I understand the question. It doesn't matter if I responded the same. Maybe it just show the similarity between us.

It really depends on what the discussion is about. Usually I don't bother with the other comments because it never really effects my answer and it kind of wastes time. However if the subject is really interesting to me I'll try to look through most of the comments to see what they have to add.

I do read most of the posts from other members, I don't like my responses to look like a photocopy from those previous respondents. It is better if to have my own response made in my own words, and to avoid myself of being accused as a spammer. It may be hard sometimes, but it's the more better and safer way in responding to discussions..

I do. I had to learn the hard way though, i didnt do it at first, i just read the question then answered to it. One episode had me reconcider. I was answering someone asking for an advice. I put my best answer up. Then i found that a lot more had been thinking about the same thing - i felt pretty stupid. So now i do a lot of scanning before even saying anything. What you cannot do anything about though, is those who answer while you do. If posts are similar then, it is noones fault.

Most of the questions I answer are either emailed to me or ones with no responses. I dont' read the responses to either of these as the ones emailed to me go straight into the response so I don't get a chance to see what the other replies are.

no... i never red other ppl's answer first :$... honestly... smetimes i dont even read other ppl answer at all :$:$:$:$:$ :P
