I write a heading and post a discussion and give good explanation. when I get responses I realise that some people do not even bother reading the whole discussion. Some only read the heading or question and then post a response. This is the fast and easy way to get big numbers next to your name and make a few cents, but other than that, it is absolutely useless. I get so anoyed with this. I am looking for proper discussion on a topic. What are your experiences.

I agree with you when you say, most people don't read full discussion. There were times when I have asked 2-part questions and people not didn't reply accordingly. This can be a great opportunity for us to share and learn from one another while making a few dollars if utilized properly. (Great Question)

I think that while myLot6 is paying that you are going to fine this on myLot. You al ways could just negative them or report spam or abuse if you genuinely think they are just trying to get number of responses up. Obviously, we do not know how the payment structure works but I can only imagine that we do get paid more fro quality so don't be disheartened by all you hard work. And just think, do you think the poeple doing these pointless responses are going to stick around for payout. The chances are that they are all going to be doing this for nothing.

Thanks for responding. I suppose one would always find abusers. I will just try and ignore them and enjoy myLot.

I have created several discussions. I only have few responses on them though. I try to explain my whole discussion on the title itself because you are right there are some users who doesn't read the whole discussion only the title. If the title sounds interesting to them they will immediately answer the discussion even without reading it. I got some users on my discussion and I rate them negative. Don't be annoyed so much with those users you can rate them negative if you want to. After all there are still some users out there who really takes time to read your discussion and not just the title.

Every now and then I experience the same thing on one of my discussions. I reread their answer, thinking I missed something. But no, THEY missed something. They just decided to try speeding through MyLot without really comprehending what is being discussed.

First off I want to apologize for being so late in commenting. I haven't been getting any email alerts about mylot because I needed to change my email address which I have done now. Maybe now I will be able to respond a little quicker. About your discussion and what to do about them. I would put a negative rating on it and then ignore it and just move on to the quality answers. Those who have not responded well to your question properly and got a negative rating, hopefully will not be paid for it or get just penny for the response rather than more. I hope this is what happens anyway.

I agree I should negative them but I feel bad when I negative some one. I think I have only rated three negatives since I joined. Thanks for response.
