Can the number of responses determind the quality of a discussion?  |
|
It is avery simple question. Each and every one discussion receive responses. Many factor works behind the number. Attractiveness of the title. No of the active friends. Quality of the author. And the sense of time of post. This is my observation.
Quality discussion having number of quality friend definitely receive good response.
But have always this seen by you? Sometime I have seen that some very very responsible and important post is facing the scarcity of responses. Sometime some meaningless discussion receive enormous response. Do you feel this. Is not this against the good health of mylot. As a myloter this is my noble observation.

1. paula27661 (5101) | 4 weeks ago | I appreciate what you’re saying reeyan. I have started discussions in the past on somewhat trivial topics such as what do you like to drink etc and I received over one hundred responses yet when I have done a topic that is more serious and of a deeper nature it hasn’t attracted as many replies. The lighter topics are popular because they are easy to respond to and do not require a great deal of thought although the discussion itself may not necessarily be of particularly good quality. I decide what to post according to my mood, sometimes all I want is trivia, other times I will share something personal or I may go for a very serious issue, it depends, but I would not say that popularity necessarily equals quality.

reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi paula27661
I have some same experiences and observation. But I don't want to say that good discussion never get response. But some time important discussion is ignored and some jolly talk are running on. It is little thinkable mater.
It is also observed by me that some very good discussion are also well responded here. I have sent you a link from a use with maiden discussion but very thinkable matter but just one except is respond there. This is why the question is raised in my mind. If some one send any user post very important discussion in maiden discussion should it be ignored as he has no friend?
It is not my complain but my feeling and sorry to say that I feel little sad too.

reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi
Is it not necessary to create the habit to meaningful discussion that no good discussion have to face the scarcity of response? If no good discussion left without response that mylot will be a example of meaningful discussion group.

2. bodhisatya (519) | 4 weeks ago | hello reeyan,
I have that noticed quite a long time back. There are some real common discussions which you can say is a bit meaningless yet it attracts a hell load of responses.
Then there are some real serious topics which if discussed more would be beneficial for all of us. But unfortunately it doesn't attract the attention of mylotters.
What I am saying here is that, that doesn't happen all the time but it does happen.
If you want to get more responses for your posts you seriously need to have a band of friends who are really active and would respond back to whatever you pose as a discussion.
Way to go Mylot....

reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi bodhisatya
I seriously disclose that I have not post this discussion from my personal point of view. I am really satisfied if ever for my any discussion I will not get even a single repose. It is my noble opinion that the number of response can't be the measures of the quality. Daily a mylot digest send to us .... I don't know whether this top discussion is consider on the number or any other measures are there. I don't know my this very experience is against the guideline or not but I ever give the priority to the quality than the quantity.

reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi learn2earn
Number of respond I get here is the meaning that there are so many people here, who have the consciousness of the quality of discussion. I think myloter are aware of this very point. But I politely confess that I have not start this discussion to gather response but to make myloter aware to the quality discussion. I want to say that if even there is no quality in my this very discussion then it also should be ignored. But quality discussion if even the frist post of any quality discussion should be welcomed. I have see right now in the mylot a single brainstorming discussion is facing scarcity of resolve. Its heart biting for me. Thank you for this awareness.

muscles4me (8480) | 4 weeks ago | I agree. When i get the top discussions in my email each morning I am amazed at the same old silly topics appear there day after day.
| |
|
|
reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi muscles4me
You are right. I am the instance that in this time in mylot there are so many discussion lying, those are far more quality that my this one. Bout I get more response for the sensational quality of the title of this discussion.
Any way I am happy that there are many myloter that, who have the awareness on the point I have raised.

4. shibham (1145) | 4 weeks ago | at first i want to say that it is hard to find out the quality of author. secondly most mylotters are active here to increse there money and posts. they never go to quality, they just seek an easy discussion so that they can easily participate. i have seen that if u have aserious problem and want some solution, then it is hard to get from some geniuses. thanks.
| |
| |
|
|
reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi shibham
In one sense you are right. But if we try to judge the discussion on the basis of author that some unknown author may be ignored. But the author of a discussion should not be the measures of quality. Some time quality authors also produce quality less discussion. So to mastermind the quality we must read it. this is happened here because all are running after number. We have no time to read . We just see the author. If author is well known then it is ok for us. Unknown author should not get the facility to be explored?

5. rehan_andaman (793) | 4 weeks ago | if you post a good interesting and quality discussion then you will definitely get good response too.but some time simple and straight forward discussion get too much of popularity and lots of responses too.so i think that number of response can not determine the quality of a discussion.but many times you post a good discussion,you will get good replies too.
| |
| |
|
|
reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi rehan_andaman
You are right . there is a chance to get response if the discussion is interesting. But from my observation i find the some time very poor quality discussion get so much responds that it can't be imagine too.

6. padhiaranand (548) | 4 weeks ago | No my friend.....I saw many simple discussion got too many responses and the important discussion that should get more responses receiving too less responses...So we can't decide discussion's quality with just responses....So you are right that sometimes meaning less discussion getting more responses than others.....So responses is the one thing who totally depend on readers mind..If they got some interest in your discussion they will surely respond you whether your discussion is meaningless or not.
| |
| |
|
|
reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi padhiaranand
I am very tough to myself too. I certainly know that my this very discussion is not a quality discussion ut lot response I get. Actually in this post there is a sensation that attract most people. And some have the noble feelings too for responding this discussion. Some have objection that leads them to respond here. So there are so many features that this discussion must receive response. But the pity is that there are so many important discussion lying there with few response that's the matter of worry about.
| |
|
|
padhiaranand (548) | 4 weeks ago | Thats right....people just looking for his/her interest...so thats why some discussion get too much responses..and some one which is best per quality but not much interesting which get less responses in compare of others.
| |
|
|
reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi padhiaranand
What you said is common people mentality. We myloter should try to cross the limits of the common people mentality.
| |
|
|
padhiaranand (548) | 4 weeks ago | very true...we should also go for new one...which will be better for everyone..happy lotting friend.
| |
|
|
reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi padhiaranand
You are welcome to the quality discussion from any author. I think you response glorify those and inspire them to post more meaningful discussion.

7. kush20006 (336) | 4 weeks ago | the quality of the judgement matters in any of the cases as if there is quality then nothing else is there but quantity justifies the commonness among the people about that topic
| |
| |
|
|
reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi kush20006
No it is I think may not be the measures of quality. Quality can't be determined by vote.
| |
|
|
kush20006 (336) | 4 weeks ago | but votes fall only to quality a lesser qualitative person will not be supported as compared to a superior one
| |
|
|
reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi kush20006
No this is the negative side of the democracy that in democracy majority is granted. But History says that folk are generally in wrong.
Just rethink the instance of Galileo
When he said the Earth moved round the Sun ...people said the The Sun round the Earth.
So it is not necessary that majority must be correct. But in democracy it is granted. that is the defect of democracy.
| |
|
|
kush20006 (336) | 4 weeks ago | but tell me if democracy is not to be followed then who is the judge who will tell about the quality
| |
|
|
reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | hi kush20006
There must should have some expat to determined it. I don't say that all popular discussions are quality less. But I observed that some of the popular discussion are quality less, it can;t be ignored.
I don't know the quality measure system of mylot. I just want other view on the number of responses may determined the real value or not. It is a open discussion. I just want to know the view. Thank you for your view.
| |
|
|
kush20006 (336) | 4 weeks ago | reeyan im not talking about the my lot or anything im talking in general i think the democracy is everywhere and majority wins always
| |
|
|
reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi kush20006
It is right that majority win but it is not necessary that majority must be right.
| |
|
|
kush20006 (336) | 4 weeks ago | thats true majority is not always right but majority makes even wrong thing look right as so many people beleive it so if u oppose it you are called wrong not the wrong thing
| |
|
|
reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi kush20006
Yeah I know that I am called wrong if majority says. But there is the other fact too though I am called wrong I am confident that I am right. And that;s the nature of truth. Truth has no need of support. Its stands in alone.
| |
|
|
kush20006 (336) | 4 weeks ago | but truth if looked from the otherside becomes false it is the point of view that matters
| |
|
|
reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi kush20006
But the matter is where from your view is pointed.
| |
|
|
kush20006 (336) | 4 weeks ago | the same thing lies everywhere terrorist justify them by sayin that they are revoulutionary and we call them terrorist
| |
|
|
reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi kush20006
I think you cross your limit. Every thing has its own boundary. And the value of matter is in its superior position when that is in proper position. Miss placement of matter means devaluation. I think you are not well to place you word in proper position.
Revolutionary and terrorism two different thing. So I think you are not aware of all this meaning.
| |
|
|
kush20006 (336) | 4 weeks ago | reeyan whatever you think about it but the quality of the thing is there only when it is appreciated by others even if you have certain quality if it is hidden then or not appreciated it no longer remains of any use similar to the body part which has no function so even if any person or disscussion is quantitative but not qualitative the fact lies that the quantitative one has been more appreciated or it has more followers or evokers and the qualitative one may be good for you but it is useless for others this all lies in our grey matter which takes various decison about it.
| |
|
|
reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi Your this point is really an important issue. But just think that what is appreciated is really valuable. Just think of drugs and the medicine. Drugs are so popular is it promotable. Many people don't like to take medicine but found of drugs. On the basis of popularity then drugs are more valuable?

reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi skysuccess
That's I meant to say. No of response is not the measuring scale of a discussion. I know my this very discussion is not a quality discussion. But my friend' no is high and in the title there is a sensation that intends people to respond. This is an instance that there are many many high quality discussion there that not receive respond even equal to this one too.

9. aulius111 (165) | 4 weeks ago | Good question. I think that having more responses may determine the quality of the discussion because it may add more things to the discussion and giving more things to say to both the creator and the people responding to it.
| |
| |
|
|
reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi aulius111
I am not agree with you. More people attracted so it must have the quality it is not logical.
Quality can't be determined by democracy. Generally mob fail to find the root of the truth. Truth is always ignored by mob. History says so.
| |
|
|
aulius111 (165) | 4 weeks ago | I don't know what to say to that, perhaps you are right.
| |
|
|
reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | I meant to say popularity is not the measures of quality.
| |
|
|
mysdianait (11835) | 4 weeks ago | Aulius please excuse me barging in again but Isaw something interesting in this box.
Popularity does not decide many things in this life reeyan but it is almost more important nowadays than many other things which should be more important. Is it not popularity which decides that a certain singer is better than another, not because they have more talent but because they have a manager behind them who will promote them? Popularity will make that person more successful in terms of earning, but it will not cause them to have talent which was missing in the first place surely?
| |
|
|
reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi mysdianait
I am not deny the importance of popularity. But value can't be determined by popularity. You just estimate the price by popularity. I think you are aware of the difference between value and price.

10. getbrowser (1431) | 4 weeks ago | I don't know whether the number of responses determind the quality of a discussion because most people here( me included )are not familiar with the rules of myLot.
Of course, in my opinion, the numbers of a discussion is a factor to determind the quality of this discussion. For example, when I have posted a new discussion and then lots of people post their responses to my discussion. It is obvious that people are interested in such a situation and they love to share their experience with people here. At the same time, If I can go back to comment these responses, I think it can make the discussion more popular.
In my eyes, many responses are important to determind the quality of a discussion, but going back to comment these responses are of equal importance.
| |
| |
|
|
reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi getbrowser
98/100 really great . Why you say you are not popular?
In what people are interested is not be the measures of quality. This is my belief. Quantity can't be the measures of quality. Quality should be measures by quality.
| |
|
|
|
reeyan (423) | 4 weeks ago | Hi LetranKnight25
No No No
I am not try to do any quality test. I just asked that may quantity consider as the measures of quality. So many people are here so it is definably be a mixture of test be here. But in the mixture is not the quality sinking. Just asking. I am not arguing.
