Yes, I do if a good friend started it however, if not good friend, I do not bother anymore... I skip. You see, I really have favoritism. I always have ways of answering the posts of my chosen friends. Ha!ha!ha!

Yes as I find it very helpful in wanting to know more about certain topics. So if it's a discussion I posted, I check someone else's. Even though I've similar discussions this way, eventually they end up for deletion now I guess if you don't word your question right. Overall, the similar discussion feature is a must for me as I'm mylotting and researching.

Why not? Long ago I tried searching for discussions similar to what I want to start. The results are only 10% dependable. Search here uses tags we add to show the discussion. So unless one knows the exact tags to search for they cannot easily find what they are looking for. So I would not bother if the discussion is similar to mine.

Hi, Dong! I will also respond to that discussion eventhough it is the same with mine. From there I know that you be able to gather information and/or lessons along the way. Just be spontaneous and who knows, the topic will get even more elaborated. Regards, and happy posting!

I respond to every discussion that I know how to answer, whether it was a similar discussion with mine or not, as long as it wasn't a copy (exactly the same as the words of my discussion ).

I always respond to all discussion that I know the answer. If I meet the similar discussion with mine, I will answer it and I will response too with the discussion that have some topic but the maker is different. So I wish that I can give some good answer with them also with the different sentence. keep post happy myLotting...

Hi Dong1970, i have also noticed the repitition of topics in the discussions being started by people, hence you can see the same topics popping up after few days... Responding to the same discussion will depend upon how interesting topic is it? If the topic is of my interest and i have some varied and new thoughts to discuss with people then i may respond to the discussion, but if it is question like yes/no or some simple stuff then i may give myself a double thought. I may respond to some subjective matters if they are quite interesting...
