One minute ago,I just checked out my discussions and found an intereting situation:I have started nine discussions here(include this one) but the intests of the nine discussions just classified into 4 parts:4 belonged to "mylot.com",3 belonged to "life",1 belonged to "friend" and one belonged to nothing. So I'm curious about have you paid attention on the interests of your discussions?Do you choose a suitable interst to your discussion or you just skip the interest? Thanks for your sharing! Happy mylotting everyone!

Yes, I always pay attention to the interest. I notice that discussions that are started and are not in an interest tend to have less responses. Including the interest means people who have an attraction or curiosity in the topic are more likely to respond to it.

And you also want to make sure you start the discussion in the correct interest. Starting a discussion about recipes for pizza in the interest for taco could mean the admin will delete the discussion entirely!

I always try to start discussions related to my interest. By doing so I then could express the idea readily and effectively. In this way I could have more stuffs which I am familiar and interested to write about and it could also motivate to write more relevant materials on the particular topic.

since i understood things about 'Interest', i have always started my discussions in the related topics, so that people can respond easily

I believe that we should atleast post discussions under interests, to make sure that we put them ounder the right category. It is also helpful for others to easily find them under the interests section tab, and for people to understand the relvance of our posts. Most of my discussions now are under a certain interest, to whcihc I strictly abide by it and follow the parameters in posting toopics to discuss.

Thanks for your respond,raijin! You have a good habit and that's what I appreciate. Actually I agree with you.We should post discussions under some interests or at least tag our discussions.

hi shinjiao! ^__^ i always choose the most appropriate interest when i'm starting a discussion here at myLot. before, during my first few months here, i would start my discussion under the general interest and it would always fair poorly, it would have less responses. but when i started my discussions under a certain interest, it got more responses. so after that i make sure that i start my discussion under a particular interest so that a lot of myLotters would see it. ^__^ Happy new year!

Hi,bear! Well,after reading your response,I think I know why there are few respsones of my discussions.Maybe LIFE is a too general interest so that many users cannot find my discussions!Thanks for your sharing and happy mylotting!

of course, i must pay attention to my interests. i have 6 main interests: 1.one is mylot, of course. i want to know new things about mylot. 2. make extra money. you know, i quit my job and i pay more attention to mylot and hope i can earn $30 from it, every month.3.family. it is the most important part in my life. i love my parents very much. and i have a younger brother, and he has married.4.lover i have found my Mr.Right, and we love each other very much.5 friend. it is necessary for everyone, but i have only one friend, we don't often see each other, we both work online, so we often chat with each other by QQ, or mobile and email. 6.relation. i quit my job, because i feel it is hard to get well along with my collegues. then i hope learn something from the section.
