Do you post in discussions that were started long time ago?

If to me a discussion is interesting then I will respond regardless of the date. Many older discussions are very worthy of our attention and sadly they went out of the limelight muh too soon. There is no limit here and discussions are never too old to receive responses and they never 'expire'. I often go to profiles and fish out something old. Usually that makes someone happy and they receive more responses too. Any discussion with recent activity apears in the 'smilar discussions' column on the right of any discussion open which has the same tags.

Yes I have responded and commented to discussions that were started even four years ago! I know that it's highly unlikely the person who started will respond back as they are either not a member here anymore, or just not interested, but I do respond in hopes that someone will come by and say something, it's also nice just to respond, and I hope that it helps to refurbish old discussions and help eliminate repeated discussions.

I will write a response to an old discussion, but usually I find them because other friends have recently responded to it and pushed it up so I saw it. I appreciate when people respond to any discussion of mine, no matter how old :) Usually the topic is still relevant and a lot of times my discussions don't have a lot of responses so I'm happy to get any - even if it is 3 months or a year later :) I just wish that the discussions were easier to sort/view by last response. Sometimes my friends respond to discussions but the discussions don't move to the top of the list (or at least they don't seem to) so it's hard to see active discussions.

Yes, I do respond to older discussions if I have an answer to the question or something to add on the topic.

As far as I concerned,I seldom post in discussions that were started long time ago.But sometimes, I may post some discussions which I think are the most significant post. I will response to these discussions.

I've posted in discussions a year or years ago. I don't really care about that, as long as I find the topic interesting, then I would still respond to it. Some discussions that have been started long ago still get fresh responses from myLotters.

Sure, I do. Why not? They are still perfectly good discussions. If an older discussion caught my attention I may just respond to it, so long as I haven't responded to it before. So whether it's an old discussion or a new one, it doesn't matter to me. They're all good, no matter how old they are! LOL And when it comes to time limits on discussions, most don't have any to begin with. So unless it is stated on the discussion itself, it shouldn't hold anyone back from responding to it, if they wish to do so. Happy mylotting!

I will response the discussions interests me, either new or old, for these discussions, I have words to say. Here I just want to share my point of veiw with all the friends. They will see it one day.

Hi. Yes, I usually will post to many discussions that has an older date. These discussions are very easy to post to and I enjoy giving my feedback to many of these discussions. It can be three years old and I still will respond back. If that member is active then they will see my discussion. If not then they will see it whenever they decide to come back to myLot. I enjoy posting regardless of how long or old an discussion is on myLot.

hi lorelai, yes, i do respond to old discussions if i found them to be interesting or if i got something to say about it. in fact, i like to respond to old discussions because i don't have to afraid that my post will get deleted when the whole discussion get deleted. sometimes, new discussions tend to get deleted due to violation of the discussion posting rules in mylot. all of us know the reason for certain discussions which got deleted, but some discussions were deleted without a clear reason. as a conclusion, just like this discussion of yours which was already here 3 years ago as of today, and i have just responded to it.

Hello there! Well, I dig up to old discussions when no new topics are around. Same with the others, I also select which to respond. An interesting discussion can get responses even it is old because users are attracted on the subject, the members who participated and the way the subject is being discussed. A discussion is interesting when you see the discussion starter reply with the responses and there is interaction among the users, an important factor to make a good discussion and to make users go to further topics of a particular user. I think, a discussion is considered as old when it was at least a month ago. Have a nice day!

I will respond to old discussions... it doesnt really matter to me when it was posted. If the post is interesting enough to respond to I will!

Yes, you're right. I guess sometimes when a posted discussion doesn't get the much desired responses from mylotters, i keeps declining on the mylot search. This sometimes makes the originator feel bad because everybody here want his or her posts to be rated high and you can always get that, if people make a lot of comments and responses to it and that's why i'll advise people not to be in a hurry posting discussion if it can't hold water! Lol.

I always like to respond on old discussions than new because I feel old is Gold. No year limit like age limit. Some time I response on 6 years old discussion if discussion is interested.

I do, especially if I'm interested in the topic. I figure I still get paid, so what does it matter when it was started? Although, I admit I do tend to start with the most recent postings on a topic.

I really do not mind if the discussions were old. For as long as I find the discussion interesting, then I just respond. Some other discussions even when they are old are still monitored by those who post. Sometimes I am also surprised the moment they respond.

i choose whether or not to respond to a discussion depending on whether it interests me and not because of its age

If the discussion is interesting enough and I have though of a good response to it, I will contribute toward it regardless of how old or how empty it may be. There is no point in re-hashing the same old topic of discussion if it has already been made, in my honest opinion

to me the date matters not,as long as it is interesting to respond to i will respond

I respond to the discussions that catch my eye and interests me. It really doesn't matter much when the discussion was posted what matters to me is the topic of discussion,if I feel interested and I have something to add to the discussion then I'll definitely post a response! Have a nice day!
