When I get here on Mylot at the first I was able to start between 4 to 8 discussion per day and port for other discussions between 5 to 10, after I reach 100 post and get my sweet star I dont what happening to me? I can't think in good discussions to start again and I can't post to other discussions because I have nothing to say. I think I am in my dark mind time. Do you ever feel that? and what do you do for this feeling? and how I can start active again? I think I am going to leave Mylot if I continue this feeling and being lazy here, I hope someone help me to restart my mind and keep active.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000alkurishy when I get tothe point where I cannot think of good discussions I make myself jump around in the various discussions until I find one that interests me and I respond to it, sometimes this discussion that I respond to triggders a new thought in me and presto I have a discussio of minown to write and it is usually a good discussion. so dont leave mylot let someones discussion trigger an offshoot topic that you can make a neat discussion out of.

This is one problem I don't have to worry about. I'm not one to start that many discussions, rather I spend most of my time responding to the ones that are already there. Try giving part of your brain a break for a few days, and only respond to others, until you think o someting to say, to start a disussion of your own. There is a lot of money in responses too. You don't eed to put yoursel under so much pressure to start discussions. When it comes to starting discussions, quality is better than quantity.

Hi alkurishy, You need to take a break I guess...I felt that but not too often now..I am spending like 5 hours a day here and I don't also post a lot..I can't think of any good topic each day.. I love responding to my friends post that is I have something to say and I know what is their post all about! I also hope you turn on the notification of your friends so that you will not be looking for it anywhere here, that is very tiring! Just relax in between those time that you are online..We have limitations and our brain needs time to break!LOL!

ohhh....I guess you need to take a break, breath the fresh air outside and have some cold drink! Trust me, after that break, you can come up with all the post and responses again!

Sorry you are feeling this way. Some days I feel this same way. I turn on my notify of "friends" that start good discussions. I don't really start discussions often unless I have something that I need an opinion on or really have something that is really peeing me off. It should get better in a few days, but you could always find some new friends. Good luck!

Hi my dear Tamara, I was waiting for your response, yes you are right I think it is a writer's block but I am not a good writer, I just write what I feel and what I am thinking about here, the 2nd problem that I can't response to other discussion because I don't have anything to add. Thank you for your response, you always make me happy with it, have a nice day my dear friend.

what if we do this like a diary, you write what you had and what you did for the day, like how delicious your meal is when you had lunch, when you had fight with your gf/bf, when you got hit by a car (joke) how you survived through the day.

Many people do the same as you, they start random topics lol. But, I'm like this all the time. Just running out of ideas. I honestly can't think of too many ideas as it is, which you can see by looking at how many posts I started lol (I think only two or three!). I need to start looking around though. Just browse the internet, watch commercials, and post funny stuff or ground breaking news before anyone else. Well, good luck! Hopefully you get out of this feeling :P -Chris

It just happens sometimes. Just take a break, a day of 2 away and do something different. It helps.

Well today is my first day back after a long hyatis and now I am going to stop by every now and then because I miss it. Not reslly for the money though because I make money now I am doing it for the friendships I have made since being here. I guess you just have to step away from Mylot for a day or two just to get a break and come back every now and again.

That is because you seem get hooked in mylot for hours and hours and hours! I don't know why you post here but I would say that if a person posts here just to earn money, then in the long term, you'll get reaaaally burnt out and be out of words. I post in mylot under discussions that interest me. There are times, I don't. I just browse and read whatever I find interesting. Just browse along as a leisure or hobby. Don't look at it as an obligation. Just chill and sit back. You don't need to post all the time. Just do if something really boggles your mind. Just my two cents. :)

Hi my friend, I'm sorry you are having trouble on MyLot..I do sometimes get the way you do. On those days when I can't think of any new discussions to start and I've went thru all my friends discussions, my interests and the top discussions, I try to go to my interests and upload photos. And sometimes I don't feel like doing much of anything and I just deal with it and start a new day the next day. Yesterday, I didn't start any new discussions.. I just didn't feel like it lol But today I feel better so I'll be starting some new ones. Your not being lazy, you are just having "one of those days" Stay with MyLot and things will look up. Have a nice evening, Char

hey dont you think about leaving.. it will come back, just that at the moment maybe you seeing all same discussions, like me.. I am feeling same as you, not posting as much, slowing down suddenly. Seems to becoming more difficult to find anything to post to or feeling you can not be bothered to reply. Yesterday i read many posts, flicking around, searching, going through interests and just didn't feel i wanted to respond As at the moment i dont make many discussions as can get a little disappointed when get 0 to maybe 2 responses. Dont need to leave, just need to take rests and then when return you will be back to how you was before the 100th post.

I get that way, too. But I always remember something my father taught me, "If you don't have anything to say, don't say it!"

Hey Opal here, Don't give up! I'm really new. I don't even have a full week yet. I have such high number rankings and I see all these people with stars and low rankings and I feel really bad. I can't think of discussions to start. When I comment nobody even bothers rating my comments. And you think you are upset! But I'm going to hang in there and you need to do the same! Keep on posting-you can do it. I'll be trying too!

Maybe you are feeling tired of posting so much... that you are not able to think more... I feel you should take some rest and then start posting again... Now that you cant think of many new discussions... you should try to aim less than what you were aiming at the start.. And then once you get in going.. you can aim bigger...Maybe that would help you... Happy Mylotting.....^_^

Yeah that happens to me often too. You just need to sit back, relax and let the others do the discussions.. Then you only need to participate on em :). I don't have even never maked much discussions. I only make them when i get some new ideas to my head as many things you would want to discuss about has already been discussed many times. So it feels like its waste to discuss about the same thing. :P Good luck for you to get new discussion ideas to your head ;)

I experienced that too. Most of the time it's because translation work has drained my energy for the whole day. Other times it's just that I couldn't find any topic that I can relate too. What I usually do about it is just check on Q & A type of topics just to get me psyched again for complicated discussions.

I understand where you are coming from with your post. Some topics on here we really have no interests in and that is the very reason that there is a interest category. Starting discussions just to make money might be very useless. It amazes me that some on here come up with crap that has no reason behind it and expect replies. Search and find things to talk about that you can relate to and with. Keep your mind open and get up and walk around. Far too many people stay planted in front of a PC and don't get exercise these days.
