do you still respond on a topic which already has a 100 or more response?I usually dont respond to discussions which already has lots of response.Its because I think all of the things that I will wrote down there were already has been said by another respondent. I will only respond only if I really do interested in that topic.but sometimes,I just drop by to read them and some of their response. how about you?do you still respond to those topics?

I usually respond from my email notices, so I actually don't realize that the discussion has a lot of responses until after my response is posted. It really doesn't make any difference to me one way or the other...I answer if I feel I have something I can say.

If i really find that very interesting, i do. Otherwise i just read few responses and omit to reply. you are right in saying that all taht I want to say are already been said. I actually very rarely come across these types of discussions.

i will only respond to these type of discussions if they really interest me and i can come up with a good response. it doesnt make any difference to me if the discussion has over 100 responses. i would basically like to be involved in it if it interests me

Yes, I will still respond to it even if it already has lots of responses. In fact if I am able to reply to any discussion, I will just respond to it. I don't care about whether it has marked best response or lots of replies.

hello.. ^_^ i would only respond on a topic with 100 responses or more if it does interest me. and yes, that's true, it's really hard to respond with a topic with 100 responses or more because you might just repeat the others said and people might not read your post anymore because of that. but, if it really does interest me then why not? =)

I response to any questions which my friends starting, but time is short to do all for me. I can't make 100 as people do each day. I hope my friends and all will understand me. I will also go through each interesting post and easy to understand.
• Philippines

Yeah.they will understand you.and thats for sure.and I am sure that they are not forcing you to respond on all of their discussions. -thanks for responding!

If the discussion is on a topic of interest to me, I will respond no matter how many replies it's received already. Even if there are already some replies that resemble my own thoughts, I will still give mine.

I don't look at the number of reply to the posts when I am giving my response to a topic. I reply to it if I find it nice and interesting topic for me. As long asa I can give my point of view for the discussion that would make me happy. I am not really responding because I want a rating and best response I just want to have fun.

Yes, if I find the topic interesting then I also response on the topic. In that way I also gave my share and support other responders response. I love reading a lot... from the response of other, so most of the time I just add comment on their response instead of writhing my own response. I discuss with them the response that caught my interest and exchange ideas

No I would not respond because all possible responses that I could give are probably already written! And I simply can't reply to a discussion without reading all the other posts and knowing if some1 else had the same ideea as me!

Views differ from person to person, from people from one country to other. Therefore it does not matter how many responses a topic has received, if the subject interests, one can always respond to that topic.

I usually don't because, like you said, someone has already made that point. I will go and read them though, and interject saying I agree with someone else.
• Philippines

I will not, since I tend to look back and check the posts I've been to. It'll take me longer if I waste my post there, especially when the discussion-starter don't pay attention to it anymore. I'd rather go through those "new" discussions and post, or search atopic which is similar to that post who already have 100 posts.
• Philippines
30 Oct 07
Yeah.I do that also.since there are lots of same topics here in mylot.so better to respond on the same topic but with a small numbers of respondents. -thanks for responding!

I usually dont respond to the discussion with many responses (say over 50), unless Im really interested in the discussion. And yes, same reason with yours. Another thing is that, I tend to check discussions that I had replied to, and it would be a waste of time if I check this particular discussion with many responses. Usually I reply on the new discussions.
• Philippines
30 Oct 07
Yeah. me too.and its my habit to check also the topic that i responded and try to give a reply on the things that the user reply on my response.so,If will respond on the topic with lots of response,there's a tendency for me not to go back on my response because I don't want to waste my time searching for it. -thanks for responding!
