how come nobody responds to my discussions?

I think its probably because of the topic of your discussion, maybe more users find her topic more interesting or maybe they relate to it more. Maybe its also because of the time when you posted your discussion, as you know myLot is an international site and many people from all over the world participate and create new discussions almost every minute in the forum. So probably what happens is that, when you posted, and got no replies yet, and these other users made new discussions of their own also, your topic was probably piled down with the other previous topics created. Not all users tend to use the search bar first before responding to a topic, most of them just log in and go answer the discussion topics that they see in the front page- I think oe trick you can do to keep your discussion alive is to monitor the discussions that you have started from time to time, and try to comment on the responses you receive, so when you do put a comment- your discussion will be brought back to the display page again. I do that and sometimes it does work.. depending on the time of the day though... =)

I'm not sure either but it seems they get moved back so fast in the pages that could be why. I also haven't figured out exactly what to put on the tag or if that helps ,it may. I checked your name and the topic of chicken dung wouldn't be very popular , yech!

I suggest that you look around at the discussions others start. I just took a quick look at your discussions and they don't appeal to those things that all people have in common. The chicken dung discussion is rather ....well its not too attractive. The discussion about decisions on a daily schedule doesn't spark that much interest. Try going into your interests and just respond instead of starting discussions. It will help you get the hang of things. I don't think I actually started a discussion until I had been using the site for a few days.

Before this one, you only had two discussions, and one was incredibly stupid. So what do you expect? How about spending enough time to get a feel for the place and have a decent amount of participation before you start complaining?

If it's a trick, then I don't know it yet either. I just assumed I was having this problem because my discussions were being drowned out by too many meaningless new ones created in hopes of gaining pennies.

there are alot of reasons for that: 1. your topic might not be interesting 2. you never detail your discussion 3. you had no friends yet try to develop your topic discussion, make it more elaborate, and invite other members to become your member. in that way, i hope i had help you in your problem. goodluck! have a nice day!
