Excuse me, am I bothering you ?

If it still moves the discussion along and makes sense with the topic yes one line is fine. It is just when someone will write one line that makes no sense that I really disagree with that. The way you go about that one line is what counts.

Hi silver quite an interesting post...personally I don't care if people give one liners..If that what they want to say then why should anyone else care..I try to give my best experiences/knowledge to a post..and who can say wheather I should have said a little less or a little more? its MY response...if i want to make a one liner so be it.. I'll tell you want annoys me is when i read a response that has NOTHING to do with the topic or they write something that i just have absolutely no idea what they have written, even after reading it several times...so in instaances like that a one liner would be welcome....

MyLot encourages you to add as much detail and be as descriptive as possible. If it only takes one sentence, the you just write the one sentence. However a one line response from you may not give me what I need to respond back to you,so it hurts the discussion in that way. It is your choice.

Hi Silverfox it doesn't matter to me, even if my responders just commented one sentence. the most important is that they share what they have on mind. we cannot do something on that. it would be better rather than you will get a zero response on your post. it only means to say that no one is interested to your post.in this site, i am more focus on sharing my thoughts and ideas on the different discussions posted here.it all the matters. sometimes i would be surprise, unknowingly I was able to meet my target.

It doesn't bother me when people give me a one word respoinse it can make it hard to understand what they are saying or meaning so I normally ask them back what do they mean or something. Is it hurting me no it's not hurting me or my feelings if someone says one word. Does it hurt my earnings it might hurt my earnings but that is a risk that I have to take with either letting it be or saying something. When someones leaves a one word response in a way it does mess up your earnings because that response will be deleted it not only affects them but it affects you a especially if you go back and respond to them. Nope I don't need a full easy more then one word like a short scentence would be nice but they don't have to its there choice. If other ask when they come here and are new I normally highly suggest that they write more then just a few words like a senctens or two because if they want to make a good earning then they might want to make sure they have more then one word. After a few commonets on that discussions you can leave a one word responses and nothing will happen to it.

I do agree with you.

I have no problem at all with a single sentence response. A member is entitled to respond in whatever manner they like as long as they are civil about it. I rarely submit very short responses because I try to limit myself to replying to discussions which attract me, so it is natural for me to say a fair amount. This is my choice and I expect this to be accepted, so I would have no moral right to disagree with another member's choice of response.

Ok I'll argue the pro side on this one. I feel we have a right to complain about 1 line answers. They usually don't add anything to the discussion, they earn no money for the poster or the discussion starter (you have to have at least 4 lines for a post to earn at least 1 cent) Its just basically a waste of time for everyone involved when a person posts a one line response. I don't think that complaining directly to that poster really helps anything. But if you explain to that poster that they are wasting their time and energy with one line answers, they may be more likely to put more effort into their responses and create better discussions for everyone.

hi silverfox no its not hurting me if they do not w ant to earn for their responses thats no hurt off me. I read the guidelines and if the one sentence is nothing it does not pay the person anything,. so good for my side there's more money for the rest of us.we are all free here of course and if any of us like to break rules go right ahead just do not bia,.t.ch if your earnings go down.I do not judge anyone.I just keep on being a nerd who does read the guidelines and the FAQ's and does try not t o break rules.the only time I feel bothered by a response is when its evident the responder in her one line did not read my discussion and her one line made no sense at all. If I was discussing say telemarketers driving me nuts and the one line read "I do not like lemonaide either I prefer coca cola" I think I am right in saying she never read my discussion as that one line makes no sense at all.

I think that one sentence responses are fine just as long as they go along with what is being discussed and in my opinion, I don't like seeing those one liners where they say that they agree and that is all. Okay yes, you agree, but why do you agree. That is what bugs me. But one liners are fine with me.

Ah my advocate.. I must be honest with you, right? Well, I used to be one liner person when I was young. And that got taken as a snob or a person who doesnt like mingling. Many of the one liners earned me enemies because of the possible misinterpretation. I was called once by a nice old lady who also happened to be my English teacher and asked to explain myself a bit more which she felt would keep me away from controversies. I struggled and while I still can go the one liner way, I dont really want to be at risk. I like my friends too. :)

Well, in Italy there is a proverb that says "ask is lawful, answering is courtesy." I personally rest bad enough when I write a question and nobody answers me. Then I like to see all of the free responses, which people can respond according to their own personal opinion that in no way be influenced by anyone. If, then people respond just to get an economic return, rather than showing a real interest in my discussion, this is a problem that does not affect me personally.

Well you know with some responses I can write long sentences depending on the questoion or discussion but with others well I want to reply but I can only write one or two sentences. But if you do write longer and thoughtful sentences you will earn more I think. I just write what I think I don't care what anyone else wants to write or how long as long as they are being helpful ande thoughtful in their response

Ye,we are all freedom here,no one can juge others by this. In fact,i didn't discover this phenomenon since i logged in mylot. Or,maybe there was,but i didn't care of it.After all,someone can take some time to answer our questions,that's enough.Right?
