I'm going on strike.

Ouch, giggles...I think I must also go on a strike with you too. Just a few hours ago, I also posted a thread about some FRIENDS who forget that I'm still alive. I kept responding to everyone's discussions no matter what time they posted it. I will try to catch up with everyone. But these FRIENDS are just like that...an avatar in my profile. You might like to read my latest thread. I"m upset about this whole idea of having mylot's friends as well. Just go catch some fresh air and come back. Now don't go on striking at me too...LOL, you know I always respond to yours.

Oh boy, don't leave!! I have been responding to you.. at least I think I have been trying hard to respond to you. Come back Giggles!! :P

I checked your profile and your friends list is rather small. If you build a bigger list of friends you will get more responses because people go to "discussions my friends started" more than any other page. Of course they do check other pages. I check "Day's Top Discussions" and "New Discussions" but usually go to friends discussions first. I'm betting I'm not the only one.

Please don't leave us. Have I done something wrong to offend you? I think alot of the responses we get from our friends and such relies basically on if they have our discussions alerts turned on. I have all og my friends alerts turned to on so I get all of their discussions right to my email inbox. Some of them I can relate to and some of them I can't. I respond to all of my friends daily. I think everyone needs to turn on their friends alert so they can get their discussions sent directly to them each day without having to go to the site to look for them. I hope you come back soon and maybe start a discussion about turning your friends alert to on so friends can get mail and respond to one another.

come on, giggles, that's not you! i know it! you're just having a bad moment, that's all. believe me,i know what you're going through. i've got most of my discussions with no more than 3-4 responses. sometimes there is a huuuuge 0 next to them... but that's how things go around here... it's true most of the people here just respond for money, and as a matter of fact, they are mostly looking for discussions they find easy to respond to... i got frustrated because of this too... but what can i do??? i sometimes look at some of my friends' discussions and keep asking myself how on earth they do it... i mean at most of their discussions they have more than 50 responses.... i find it kinda intimidating... so don't take it so hard... try to ignore this kind of people and go on with your friends by your side... kisses!

Hey don't get angry. You should be patient and wait for people to answer you. Some people might get interested in what you post and some might not. So I'm gonna add you to my freinds list and I promise to be a good freind of yours! Best Of Luck!

I don't get a lot of responses to my discussions either, so I can sympathize with you. I just keep posting, anyway.

Giggles, do not be so angry, if you arer not getting responses to your discussions. Be patient, send link of your discussions to your dear friends and make a request them to post their response. If they are your true friends, and like your discussions, they will surely respond you. Donot go by number of responses you get, see who responds and how nicely he responds (see the quality in the response). Best of luck! May more and more members and your friends give you more and more response, I pray.

Funny. I just looked. This thing has 18 replies. That happens to me too. I try for nice normal good things. And I get nothing. So out of the blue I ask "would you respond to something with best response?" and I get 57 or more responses MOST EVER! Next up I ask if you would shop at a dollar store and if you do what you get... I get 67 responses. BEST EVER for me! So yeah I get it I get it. Its how it goes for me too. You want meaning in thoughtful talks, it doesnt work. All that works is things that dont matter. At least I have found that for me as well!

Don't go on strike. Who cares if people respond or not. Just keep posting what you want. Try to do it at a better time maybe when more people are on and make sure that you get it in the right category and I bet you'll get more people.

Im sorry. I find that the goofiest posts get the most attention. For example I created one asking people if they liked chili a few weeks ago and people are still commenting on it! Maybe you should try adding keywords to your tags so your discussions will pop up more frequently.

Hey don't go for strike. I am here to tell you my story. I always try to come up with some good work but still I don't get too much responses. I think that its not people to respond, its me to have a good one. Do try a little to get good friends and respond them. You will see that they are doing the same for you. You have a good number 277 really worked hard. OK no problem, I am going to add you as friend, if you allow. LoL

I think that is true with almost everyone here. The good arguments which would require more time to think about and respond go unanswered and the simple stupid ones like who do you think is the best get answered a lot as it takes less time for people to think. Also people here seem to prefer a 2 line or 3 line answer to a question and just move onto another question rather than a decent detailed reply. I have had quite a few of my decent discussions getting cold shouldered, but hey we are all here to have fun. What is the fun in being grumpy and striking? Come and let's have a lot of fun here. Cheers! Ram

I hope you are not serious about leaving mylot.. even if it was for a while :) I know how it feels and I'm disappointed too with the little number of responses that my discussions receives but as long as some people respond it's better than nothing.. I guess with time it can improve and you will get better results.

Don't be too grumpy my friend. I just read some postings from some of my friends that they have not been receiving email notifications of new discussions of their friends for about 3 days already. So have patience, because there could be very good reasons why they are not responding to you. I felt bad myself because no one seems to respond to my discussions for about 2 days already and I breathe a sigh of relief when I read about some technical problems that mylot has.
