Oh my!! I gave a misleading title for my discussion

The title is very important because it is the first thing we see, like the packaging on any article. However it also depends on the mood of myLotters whether they will respond or not to even the most attractive title. This is another of the misteries here. One day results are completely the oppostie of those we expected while another day things are quite normal. That's all part of the fun here. Oh I believe that your zero reponse discussion has now been attended to...

It has happened to me.The content will be good & after starting the discussion I would get a better title than the one I put.The first thing which others see is the title.If its not that good then the responses will be less.But if you become more popular here no need to worry for the titles.Even if you put a,b,c,d... for all the discussions you start, you will defenitely get more responses.

Well I would think your buds have to learn to read the discussion :) The title doesn't always explain it to me, but I try to dive into all my friends discussions when I have time and see what it's all about. Sorry you got no responses!!

I've had a lot of discussions with zero responses. I blame it on the fact that my subjects, titles and discussions aren't generally interesting. Most of the time I rant and vent about things going on in my life -- I can see how that would be uninteresting to anyone but me. Some of the ones that weren't rants and vents and received no responses, I figure those ones were simply overlooked. I have so many to read that I miss most of them and figure that's probably what happens to a lot of other mylotters. Mybe that's what happened with yours -- it simply got overlooked. :)

I've actually never had a discussion with 0 responses, and haven't made a mistake on the title. However, I am positive that I have probably made a few spelling mistakes in the contents and when I reply to a discussion, cause sometimes I'm too lazy to go back and proof-read. I know you might currently feel upset that your other discussion you started doesn't have any responses, but like you said, maybe it's because the title didn't make sense or some people weren't interested in it. I wouldn't worry about it, because like I said, we all make mistakes, which means we are all human.

I try to be descriptive with my discussion title so I don't confuse people with the topic I am talking about. I guess if you gave a confusing title I would be less likely to respond to it too. Good Luck with your future discussions. =)

I started a small number of discussions here so I still didn´t have this kind of problem. I always prefered to read other people´s discussions and answer to them. For me is more fun to see what people get interested about to start their discussions.

O u poor dear! I too have made a lot of mistakes. I hope they don't kick me out because of this. 0 responses I think I have had a couple! Once i made a discussion and forgot to put an image.So i went back and added an image. Guess what it became 2 discussions under same heading!! Though I got 5-7 responses on both of them i was afraid i would be kicked out! Bet of luck in ur future discussions.May u rack up a 100 responses! AP

hello kanaka, Don't worry about that. All people make mistake. Zero response for your discussion is not mistake I think. Because not all people interest with our topics. That is normal. Try give a lot of relation tags to your discussion.
