signing in this Mylot you are to follow certain duties. Yes I feel that I am a bit irresponsible what about you? Let me first state the criterion: -Do you rate every activity you come across? I sometime s forget. -Do you report spammers and referral link posters? I felt sympathy for a couple of new users and decided not to. - Do you really select a best response? I do that but I always a tendency to wait for more. This not mentioned anywhere, but i think we should do it. In fact this is not against the rules... but something you should do. It is listed in the DOs.

Hi there freak! I have to admit that I am guilty on your last point I don't forget but I have a different 'problem'. I do not start many dicussions so that causes some of the ones I have to get revived and receive responses a long time after I started them. I sometimes cannot choose the best after only a few and as time goes on and they receive even more it gets even more difficult However eventually they all get resolved and someone is happy - that's a good feeling too knowing that someone was smiling when they saw that notifier arrive!

I perfectly comlpy with your view. It's tough to keep a track of all the discussions. In fact that is my main problem. I fell guilty when I don't check-in back after asking for help or something. The reason is that I am a student and nowadays i get little time for mylotting. Wish you all the best

Your studies MUST come first. MyLot will be here when you are free but not before your studies. Good luck!

Oh yes, I remember you. You are the Mysterious Diana right? Yes I have to confess that I forgot you all this time. But the 'freak' really brought me back to some old unresolved discussion... And I really appreciate you for giving me a graceful advice. I am trying to keep it anyway.

well, i admit that im always lazy to check the thread that i've started.But until now, im not create any my own thread in mylot, because i dont know what to dicuss.because there is more than 100++ of new thread started everyday on mylot and everything that i need to discus, the thread has been open and been discus. i dont want to make "spam" thread on mylot.But honestly , i i make a thread and find my answer , i will leave the thread even there are 100+ ppl post after that and dont select best responds.

Laziness should be evaded. It's man's worst enemy. Try to keep it away from you . You can see your life flourish 2x. This is not a big advise. Just some acknowledgments. In fact I don't have the right to advise you. Because i too am lazy sometimes. Happy threading there.

I usually rate every response I got in my discussions, that way I know I've read it and can keep track when new responses are posted. The only case where I'm going to report a discussion is when I see that user is spamming one after another with just one line that doesn't even have sense. And for the best response...I always tend to wait more but then I forgot about it completely I think I'll browse old discussions now just to give some br

Rating every discussion is not necessary. I only rate the discussions that are worth it. I mean, even though the users ideas may not be same, if the user has striven hard to respond in a good manner, he should be rated good. One sentence responses do not come under this category, i think. At least that's what the guidelines say.

I always rate the discussions that I have to responded to. I also rate the responses that I receive. I rate all of them positive. I try to be active here everyday. I have never reported spammers and referral link posters. Even if someone copied my discussion, I just left it alone. I will mark the best response for at least a week so that people will have enough time to respond to it. I love China

That's a good idea. Rating every discussions good. But I w9ould ask you not to rate the discussions that are not upto the mark. I mean, one sentence responses and things that poke fun of the person who created it. I check the quality of the response. And happy mylotting.

I usually rate discussions which are really good and most of the time i always rate it positive.......i have never given anybody a negative response specially in debate kindda discussions, because i believe everyone has a point of view and he gave his so whats the fuss all about......... Well as you said i too wait for some more responses to come by to give the best response....... I think we should get into the habit of rating people, as I feel it can really boost the confidence of fellow mylotters...... have a nice day !!!!

Hi, ebook_freak! I do rate every discussion. I have a habit of doing so. I have not reported a member for spammers and referral links. If you are a troublesome member, I may report you... I have yet to do and follow the rules as well.. I try to be responsible as much as possible. But, there are times when I don't bother with being responsible.

I meant responsible as in ways of doing everything that the guidelines may tell me. I am still learning myLot.

No one in the world is perfect but we all try our best with everything we do. I also sometimes do not report spam or mark everything. Everyone has different views and everyone forgets things.

Oh, yes. You are correct. No one is perfect. And people forget too. In fact that's one of my main problem here. And I am a student. Sometimes I won't have time to check in for days.
