Do you find writing a discussion tiresome and sometimes boring? Are there times when you just sit in front of the screen not knowing what to write about?Are you one who only responds to other people's discussions or just uploads photos?Say what!!!!

I would rather respond then start a discussion. Sometimes its hard to me to come up with a discussion. Occasionally, I have a question or see something really interesting in the news that I think will make a good discussion and I post it.

I think it's easier to respond to other discussions and it's not like you get more money for starting a discussion. You can also make friends more easily by responding to discussions that are long going than you can from self-starting discussions.

I am into responding to as many discussions that i can everyday rather than posting my own discussions. But whenever i am posting my own discussions then i always make sure that it would be very interesting and i always looking forward for the possibilities of having more responses from other mylotters. Have a nice day ahead from Kiko and happy posting and happy earnings here in mYlot!

I have a hard time starting discussions. Every once in a while something hits me and I will start a discussion. Most of the time, though I enjoy reading the discussions and posting responses to the ones that interest me. I don't upload photos, because I am not real sure how to do it and where to find photos to post.

discussions, of course. 1, if i have some questions, i can get some responses in a day. so it give me too much help/. 2, it is easy to post a discussion then response, because i don't need to post lots of words. sometimes i can't write too many words to respond a discussion. for example, what's your lover's name? what i should respond?the name only. but it must affect my stars and earnings. 3, we need more and more discussions everyday. have you found that there are less and less discussions everyday.

There are definitely more responses than there are discussions,I do not know if they are diminishing by the day,but by observing the figures next to the names which often run into the thousands,I would say there are very much more responses than discussions.I dont think one needs too many words in a response.I will use your example,the discussion asked :"Whats your lovers name?" my response: Rowena!!!!

I like doing both, but I find it harder to start new discussions that responding to existing to discussions.

It would be good if you could do just 1 discussion a day RedCore,and then do as many responses and photo uploads as possible.

I am mostly into responding, my brain is not that rich with enough ideas!LoL I just post if ever I have valid reasons to post it, mostly innovative ideas and about human behavior. I chose to respond more because I believe that is the faster way to spread information to others, to share knowldge and also learn from that topic. Plus, not to mention the earnings is pretty much faster than starting one and then commenting on most of the responses one has to get!;)

I love both but starting discussions is more fun to me as I love to see what people have to say, what their opinion is. When I just answer a discussion I miss out on some my lotters that might not include themselves in the same discussion I am involved in.

I fully agree that it can be fun,but only if you have enough of the right topic.Some people just dont seem to be interested in certain topics that you may think are exceptionally good.!!!LOL!!!

I do feel out of topic to write about sometimes. I'm the kind of person who likes to write about senseable topics helpful for me and to my readers as well. I don't post discussions just for the sake of posting them. If I feel I don't have a discussion to post, I just response to as many discussions I find senseable. And I thought responding to discussions earns you more money than posting one.

You will be very surprised that sometimes the most insensible, nonsensical topics get responses that would shame an avalanche.I dare say that these magical posts are largely due to trickery.

Hello jungle, I usually do all of them, responses, discussions and uploading pictures here in myLot. Its true there are times that my mind's blank and I can't think of anything to write about, that happens when I'm tired. During this times I just respond to a few discussions and upload some pictures then I log out and rest. :-)

I will respond as well as start discussions. I have never considered starting discussions as boring. Only if i don't get any response, i will feel bad and there were times when i will sit staring at the screen wondering what to post. But this situation is only for a few minutes.

Sadly, i lack in the inspiration department, so i mainly respond to other peoples discussions, but if i come up with a good idea then i will find the time to write about it for sure. Im also a good graphics and web designer, but again i lack in the inspiration for ideas of what to make them look like, so i maily depend upon other peoples ideas/being told what to do! I hope you enjoyed reading this post!

Hi holtinator!!!I most certainly enjoyed reading your post.I think that you're being a good graphics and web designer is fantastic.!!!Let me tell you that everybody and everybody depends upon other people's ideas all of the time that is how great inventions come about.For example,I think of myself as being very good in pencil and watercolor sketching yet I am forever buying books on the subject.You just keep going. You are doing great.You are a winner.!!!!!

I try to respond to the discussions that interest me otherwise i dont do it.starting a discussion can be tiresome and boring but i start a discussion only if i really what find what people think of it.but most of the time i end up responding to people who have posted interesting questions. i think it is well that there is loads of surveys you can conduct with the help of discussions with the people who think very differently from each other.

I think if you want to get a reasonable amount of responses,then you will have to check what really interest people on mylot.lol!!!

It is indeed very hard to come up with a new topic. Most topics have been posted over and over again. That is why I prefer responding and uploading pictures.

I recently wanted to just go on responding and uploading pictures only but I was not sure if it was wise as this would not earn me enough.

I am trying to develope a formula which can earn me a okay sum each day.Maybe a good recipe would be: 2 really good discussions,which can net a fair amount of responses,followed by around 10-15 responses and a fair sized stack of picture uploads.Does that sound o.k.!!!!LOL!!!!

well i do both really.. occasinally i will have loads of discussions to posts and i will sit at the computer and type type type.. but then there are days were i will have absoulty nothing to write about so i will sit and search through all of my friends list and all of the iinterests and i will respond to discussions.. like today is a nopost day for me.. im clueless on any posts that i can write.. i dont want to be one of those mylotters that post one sentence disussions that require a mere one word answer. so when i cant post i respond! sometimes resposnding is more fun anyways!

I must admit that I have occaisionally submitted some really skinny topics,that would shame a chronic victim of writers cramp,and I am as guilty as sin.I ofcourse later began having many nopost days,so responding became a good way of earning some money without the additional strain of thinking what to say.The topic has already been discussed,just respond to it in an intelligent way.!!!!LOL!!!!!

i only write a discussion when i found one.it usually takes me more than two or three days to start a discussion.yes,it's harder than just respond to others' discussions. but if we just respond to others' topics,our earning will not as much as when we start discussions.maybe mylot knows this,it is even tiresome and thoughtful to start a discussion.

You have to work extra hard if you are going to earn a reasonable amount of money each day so racking your brain to come up with a discussion that can draw responses is not enough.It is the hardest part, but finding a discussion that you can relate to and respond to is also not too easy.

Hi there. I prefer to respond to other peoples discussions, especially if I think them appealing to me, and my interests or experiements...
@JUNGLE (1157)

I also much prefer responding,by the look of the figures next to some members' names I would guess that they were responding much more than posting discussions.
