I was just going threw my unresolved discussions and I have quite a few zero response ones. It breaks my heart to see them because I can't delete them or anything else. Does anyone have any tips on how to do something with them? How many do you have?

Well Unless your friends have a Mylot then I think thats sort of useless. They will need a mylot user to answer or respond to the discussion. =]

Just send the Links Sweet and I am sure that you will get responses on them, I have known a few People this has happened to and they just put the Links in a Discussion asking their Friends if the could respond I hope it works for you

I will go and take a look and see if there are any that I can comment on. I try to do that if I see one of my friends with discussions that have no responses. I think I have two or three with no responses as well. I hope someone will do that for me! LOL

Of all my discussions I started, there is only one that 0 responses, and nothing I can do about it. It is only a few days old so it might get some anyways. I am happy for all the responses that I did get to my discussions. even if it was only a few. It is so hard to come up with a discussion that is interesting enough to get responses. That is one reason, I mostly post responses, as it is just to hard to come up with a decent discusson. It does take more thinking to start a discussion than it does to respond to one. I would just rather respond as I am making all my money from here just doing that. So, I will stick with what works. Good luck to you and happy mylotting.

I posted my links to the ones I have with no responses up above. I usally try to go threw once every few days to check out all the zero response discussions here on mylot to try to help everyone out. It is hard,and it gets alot harder the more people come to mylot. I try to be orinigal but that is tough too! LOL

The trouble is that you cannot put their url in the myLot and say "could you please answer my zero response discussions" because it is against myLot guidelines. Besides just leaving them until you get one response, (and then you have to wait until you get the appropriate answer so you can give a best response), you can see what interest that zero discussion (the unresolved is the one that you never gave a best response to yet) is in and invite friends who are more likely to answer it. But then you have to risk getting friends who feel strongly against something you are strongly for so when you start a discussion such as "Cat people are selfish" for example or "dog lovers keep me awake at night," or something about your view on religion, these friends may be very nasty to you. I would leave them as I did with the few I have and as soon as possible once the answers come in, mark one of them the best response. For some reason, once you start marking best responses, you will get more people answering them.

I have a couple of those myself. There really is nothing you can do with them, they just will sit idle. I myself have gone through the no response section, and even responded to some discussions that are one year old LOL. I've seen a few members recently post that they were shocked, and that some of their really old discussions had been brought back to life. I wouldn't worry over it my friend it might be tomorrow, or a year from now someone will respond eventually.
