I've had trouble finding what I thought was a sensible discussion, yes. :) But after I filled out more of my profile and added some of my real interests, I can find discussions relating to them. It really helps.

I totally agree. This (mylot) seems more of a what do you feel than a discussion (even debating is not heavy debate). There are other web sites out there (SU for one) that goes more into heavy talking.

Hi peavey!!! I will keep that in mind. I will add more on my interests so that it will lessen my time finding for the right one.

hi zeloguy!! yes that's what I felt too it is more dealing on how you feel rather than discussing more on serious and national affair.

finding quality discussions can be tough sometimes, then other times I don't have a problem....just depends on the day I guess.

Yeah, most of the time. I encounter bad and repeating discussions here in MyLot. I think some of the discussions here are spam. I wish that MyLot can find away to stop spammers. But anyways, there are some really good discussion here in MyLot and respond only to the good ones.

thank you kabayan. It touches my heart that you respond to this discussion it means that is a quality discussion too, thank you! And we keep an eye to those discussion that are more likely to be spam and hope Mylot will do something about it.

I also do find it hard to look for sensible and interesting topics the respond to. When i first joined mylot, i never seemed to run out of ideas to post nor have less entusiasm to respond to topics. now i find it more and more diffult to find topics to respond, it would also took me almost an hour to find a good one.

thanks unfathomedpsyche, we share the same problem. Maybe MyLot should do something about this in the future.

i don't make any distinction between discussions in myLot. They all make sense if you just them into perspective. If I think I can say something nice and good about the topics, I comment on it without a second thought. Don't be too hard on yourself.

hi kutchi! I do the same too I really think of what discussion I should start and if that discussion will benefit some readers by exchanging thoughts and opinions in one way or another.

I won't waste an hour looking for one, but I know how you feel. Sometimes I'll browse through the new discussions and I'll realize after about 10 pages that there is not a single quality discussion to respond to. If my friends don't have any new discussions to post to, I'll just leave and do something else for a while. I've tried to look for discussions through my interests, but I haven't had much luck with that, either. I think it's best to leave and come back later so that you don't find yourself wasting too much time and getting discouraged.

I have alot of friends on my friends list and I have turned the notify on, so when they start a discussion it goes to my inbox. I can see if it is something that pertains or appeals to me. I find alot of interesting discussions this way.

Most of the time I read off of my friends list or do a search for things on the seach engine at the site. I do come across a lot that have duplicate posts or things that are way too alike but then there are times when I come across some that are extremely unique.

I agree with you to a degree, but this site is worldwide and caters for all ages, except kids, although sometimes I wonder, so occassionally it's difficult to find a topic that interests you. However, you are an intelligent lady, and you attract responses to your discussions. That should make you happy.

Hi there. Yes I have been having quite a hard time looking for interesting discussions. It coz some are almost the same as everyone else's. Same questions over and over. :(

Yes I am agreeing with you. I'v been here only 4 days and I'\m starting to think that too many people are being influuneced by the money they could make. I mean it's only about a penny a discussion so you have to be on here only cause you like to talk, and not because you want to make money.

I don't usuaully have a tough time finding discussions to join in on because I am 54 and have a lot of experiences to share, both good and bad. But yes there are times that I have to look hard. But that is when I pick a topic and do search for that topic and then I can scan through the discussions more focused.

I wouldn't say that I spend close to an hour...but a few minutes. Now that I've been a member for quite a while...a little over a month...I have been able to respond to all the ones dealing with a lot of my interests, so it is harder to find one that I am interested in responding to. I guess the more you do, the harder it is to find good ones. But it's ok; it makes it more interesting.

i dont have a hard time looking for a good discussion because i can just go to my friends' discussions or my intersts' discussions because im sure that they should interest me however it is sometimes hard to find discussions that i want to respond to or that i have an opinion on so i often find myself just reading a discussion without responding. i hope i answered ur question ! =) take care n God bless !! ~maRian
