Are we so Conservative and Cautious while discussing here?

Hi saivenkaat802003! Oh, I do thank the respondents most of the time but I don't think you are talking about me, or are you? haha.. I usually comment on all responses but don't really respond to all discussions made by our friends here. I guess, it is because sometimes I don't have any idea what the topic is all about and I have nothing good to contribute. And as for the one liner posters and respondents, i really am not quite sure of what's running through their minds. I guess, personally I sometimes is conservative in choosing the topic I will respond to and sometimes, I am cautious in making responses and comments..but whether I am conservative and cautious, or whether I get a little bit silly and frank, I always know I post my thoughts with honesty and sincerity and no pretensions at all. But to tell you frankly now, I really don;t know if I am making sense because I am really sleepy now. It is past midnight here and I think I need to go to sleep. haha.. Take care my friend and God bless you always!

Actually, I think a well discussed topic will earn more money. I am not sure but this is what I think. But usually, it is not common for a discussion to "linger" so long. Normally we just just 1 or 2 sets of exchanges and that's it. I don't think people are trying to close the topic by thanking... they are closing in a way, yes, but it is not their intention to ask the responder not to talk anymore.

i admit i'm a little cautious saiven. but not because i might get a negative rate or it might affect my star or my earnings but because, i think of what might be the reaction of the myLotter (poster or commenter). i am usually careful on my words because i don't want to offend anybody here. but i also say what i feel and what i think, i just put it in a nice way as much as possible. although there were times that i posted a discussion with a lot of cursing. but that wasn't directed to any myLotters. i was just venting about someone i argued with and i couldn't help but course. ^__^;; but most of the time, i try to put my words in a nice way.

Well, I think it simply means we have nothing to say. If something makes our blood boil (like a moral or a religious topic) tee hee, then people don't care about Mylot points. They just go on and on. I have just come from one such discussion. Start a really "hot" discussion that will drive people nuts and see how many responses to responses you will get. LOL... teasing of course!! Cheers and happy mylotting!

I agree that some are here purely to rake in $$. But conservative & cautious? Maybe not so expressive should be the word? Maybe due to language barrier or just plain personality?

I don't think there is anything wrong with expressing your views as long as you are respectful of the other person. I know one of the discussions I commented on got into a long discussion between about 3 of us. I really enjoyed it. We didn't have the same views, but we listened and was respectful of each others views, and I think we all learned something from the discussion. You should not be scared to say how you feel about something - just do it nicely. But, one liners aren't going to get you anything. And I think I either read or heard only the discussion and your one response to someone is all you get paid for. I don't worry about the money when something is interesting enough for me to want to respond over and over.

saivehnkaat when I first came here I was goung ho on all topics and got hit so hard with insulting responses I have learned not to do any controversial discussions or I would be completelu without a star. in two days someone minused me from ten to 6 and its taken me a long time and a lot of posting to get back to an 8 so I do not do controversy anymore, too many mean hearted trolls who would kill you if they did not agree. lol.
