myLot reputation of 93/100. newadd (2815) 6 years ago

I spend way more time reading. Sometimes I even read through the discussion and find there really isn't anything to add and move on. Or I have found the information I was looking for. What about you?

More time reading, for me. Some of the discussions I read have so many replies that other people have already written what I would have said.


myLot reputation of 93/100. newadd (2815)  6 years ago

So very true:)


myLot reputation of 92/100. gifana (2229)  6 years ago

That really shouldn't matter....you may be able to say the same thing from a different angle which might lend to making it clearer.


myLot reputation of 93/100. newadd (2815)  6 years ago

On some discussions there are only just so many ways of saying something..at that point it is just better to move along.

I do that too newadd. Sometimes I will spend 20-30 minutes reading, if there are bunches of responses, only to end up feeling like it's all been said. Or, I will get to the end and be frusterated and not respond, lol. I do read every response before posting to a discussion. It takes time, but it is worth it in the end, to not just repeat what everyone has already said.


myLot reputation of 93/100. newadd (2815)  6 years ago

My words exactly:)

Most of the newbies do not read anything at all!. They just read the title and post a few words!!

I definately spend more time reading. Many of the posted discussions are weak and don't require a lot of thought when responding. Thus, I look further for the topic that will allow me to think!!! What is that? The power of the mind! For a twist on things I will respond to stupid questions with a brain twisting response. I doubt that the responses will ever get notority as the question posted was done so just to increase earnings. But, I feel better posting it. That is what counts most.


myLot reputation of 93/100. newadd (2815)  6 years ago

I too have been known to answer the silly questions with just a tad more thought than they expected..lol


myLot reputation of 92/100. gifana (2229)  6 years ago

With answers like this one, Newadd, You're gonna have a mighty hard time picking a best response. I don't envy you.

I like reading, as well as giving feedback, I'd say i'm close to 50-50 on that


myLot reputation of 93/100. newadd (2815)  6 years ago

Sounds good:)

I would have to say I spend more time posting. I do not post to things that do not pertain to me or onliners that I have already answered once.

fair enough:)

10. myLot reputation of 94/100. breezie (1004)   6 years ago

I spend a lot more time reading than posting. Like you said I often read through a post and them find someone has posted what I was going to so there is realy no point in posting the same thing over again. Sometimes if a post had a lot of replies I don't even bother to read it becasue of the same reason.


myLot reputation of 93/100. newadd (2815)  6 years ago

Exactly!!


myLot reputation of 92/100. gifana (2229)  6 years ago

breezie....did you ever think that what you have to say might be seen from a different angle and make the idea a little clearer. Apologize newadd for butting in but that's the way I'm built.


myLot reputation of 93/100. newadd (2815)  6 years ago

No worries on this end..thats the idea:)
