I've made a couple good discussions here and there but it's at a rate of 2/30! So, I was wondering if anybody had any tips or good ideas about how to come up with a discussion that others will be interested in. If you usually get a lot replies on your discussions please let me know how it's done...... or is it just something that comes naturally?

i'd read the current events and world news first and select whats hot and most widely debated. then to history. ancient history always brings up so much in new discoveries. finally, controversial issues as in UFO phenomena, the gnostic gospels, alternative medicine and geo-political maneuvering. as arsenio hall put it: "things that make you go 'hmmmmmm'..."

Thank you for replying to my discussion! You've got some good ideas there! The reason why I posted this is because I can tell that there are some people who start up a lot of discussions and get about 30 replies each or maybe even 100 while sometimes I'll start up a discussion and get 1 response! Turns out I've had a bit of luck this week, I think I've hit a max of about 35 responses for one post so I guess it's almost pretty much luck... ya just got to hope that a lot of people will be interested in what you have to say! Thank you again for your really good response! I've definitely learned something!
