Cute monkey, is he family? I do not remember the most responses that I have gotten to any one topic. I have never really paid that too much attention. I can get a lot of responses if I do something that every one has in common or the fluff stuff. By that I mean, the things that have no meaning, it just looks good. I don't have anything against the fluff stuff. It is just that sometimes I am not in the mood for it. I do it sometimes and I respond to it even more. But, most of the ones that I do have to say something positive to the world. It hast to speak of who I am and how I view the world. You know, it hast to have some weight and depth to it. I know before I start it, that not everyone is going to respond to it. That is okay. As long as I am satisfied with the quality of responses that I recieve.

School picture? Okay, that was funny. You made me laugh on that one. You always make me laugh. That is why I don't believe you are really seventeen. There was one that had me laughing for days. When I think of it now, it still makes me laugh so hard. It was the one when someone called you a hick and you responded by saying, I shore do wanna sleep with ma sista!!! That was classic. It is still so funny to me.

you have a terrific outlook to mylotting. i think your discussions must be of a high quality and for that you are to be applauded. i get fed up and post rubbish for childish amusement, but hey, it entertains me! (what do you expect from someone who uses thier school photo as an avatar!)

I've gotten over 50 responses two times now. I think one of the 'secrets' to obtaining a lot of responses is to have a lot of friends on your friends list and of course have an interesting discussion to start with (something that everyone on mylot can relate to). With one of my discussions that generated more than 50 responses, I didn't have anywhere near as many friends as I do now, but people seemed to 'swarm' to it anyway. LOL I've seen some mylotters get 100 responses or more to one discussion. Amazing, isn't it? So far the most responses I have ever gotten was 73. Maybe I'll reach the 100 mark yet! ;)

Love the avatar sweety! I think the highest I ever had was about 105 responses but I don't know if there is a secret to it! I am not even sure what my average is although I know it isn't 50! Ask your Uncle Alfie - he'll know all about it! xxx

No way sweety - ask him again - he had a lot more than that deleted! Some people just took his fun and witty posts too seriously! Send him all my love! xx

Santa brought me my christmas wish early then! lol My health is pretty bad sweety but heck it is mainly just pain and I will get over it - unfortunately it has kept me away from all my friends online for far too long - going to have a look at your posts right now sweety - hugs xxx

I don't think you'd want Transdisc in on this one. It would just look like someone lost a load of buckshot somewhere.

I'm lucky to ger 3 or 4 responses, I must be boring! I think you have to pick a controversial topic or something that is just a fun random item that no one has thought of before.

well this one is at 45 and will be at 46 after me! But there have been very few of my discussions that have been that many. Ususally not even close to 50!! There have been a few that have made people angry and a LOT of them responded, but then your rank goes down. lol. It's hard to appeal to many many people.

50 responses, you got to be kidding. Luckily, I get 5 to 10 responses in my conversations, hahaha. Anyway, I see you're getting close to 50 in this one, and I decided I would help. (no offense, I liked the puppy better) =)
@xboxboy (5576)

thanks for your contribution! (maybe the puppy will make a return!)

Oh yes, there was a time when I always had as many responses as 50 or 75 or even more. A few months back I stopped posting discussions as I could'nt devote so much time to attend all the responses, and now I'm back to posting. But now there a big drop in the number of responses I'm getting, either people have forgotten me or they are inactive. I too see that now there are not many people working actually, many have switched over to yuwie and some have disappeared without a clue. Getting over one hundred is a dream now, to say the least. My best must be around 220, I guess.

I forgot the main part. To get relatively more responses, add more friends, start discussions which everybody can relate to, and respond to as many different friends' discussions as you can. Don't start discussiions aiming at just any one category, like only for men or only for women, only for mothers, only for the students, etc. Write for the masses, thereby creating an opportunity for everyone on mylot to respond. Good luck!
@xboxboy (5576)

good pointers! many thanks. 220 responses! that would be like a dream for me!

testing_PLP_16dec07/mal-11/2000/sun Hi, xboxboy You are better than me, because I am only received for 19 number of responses, to date. As good learning is through practice, I could not figure out to you the best ‘method of statements’ for how to get better figure in getting huge figure of responses. But there will be somebody, who afford and able to give you right tips to reach above than 50 responses. And I believe, there are many of them in mylot. As I saw and observe, previously, was I_LUV_U. He reached 186 responses, and the subject of his discussion was about he had received 0.13cents per discussion from mylot. Happy Postings and Earnings, xboxboy. HAPPY DAPPY.

There is poor response to the discussions statred by me. I don't know why? May be due to not selecting facinated subject for discussion.

i guess it takes time. i was up to 200+ before i got over 15 replies. it will happen, keep going.

Are you talking individual members, or the number of comments as a whole? I know that some of mine I started a long time ago now are still getting responses, but I've lost track on how many.
@xboxboy (5576)
16 Dec 07
i guess individual responses as a whole, not add on's to the response. i have heard rumours of mythical giants attaining 200+ responses on mylot!

I've never come across any, even in the popular discussion section. Oh well, it must be a mythical creature after all, so rare, they had to delete the discuassions so as not to make us mere mortals jealous.

the most responses i ever got was about..... 85. i was aiming for 100 but i still got close. i can't really remember what the topic was about but you could see for yourself on my profile. i wonder what the record here on mylot is for the most responses to a discussion.
@xboxboy (5576)
18 Dec 07
good question! the most responses must be 250+! 85 is an awesome achievement! congrats!

50 responses, not even close. I usually get 1-3 responses at best.

Probably if I get even 10 replies I will get up and do a little dance around the room. So far my "best" has been 45 although, like you, sometimes there will be 8 or 10 interactions within a single reply. Those are fun! One discussion I've seen had 5 pages of one-liner type responses. It was one of those Do-you-know questions and every single answer was along the lines of No-I-Don't-Know. It was rather surprising that staff left it up. A really fun discussion is better in my view than one with hundreds of replies, but wouldn't it be fun to have both!
@xboxboy (5576)
16 Dec 07
i agree about the fun discussion. i would rather have 10 replies but of lots of contributions than have 100 one word replies.

Maximum I have got is 8.I have seen more than 80 but i doubt if i ever reach that. Adding friends is crucial it seems, but that would work only if the friends reply to your posts.Many high posters add friends randomly to get replies, and they dont reply to their friends topics, since they got too many friends...
@xboxboy (5576)
18 Dec 07
yeah, i try to keep my friends to under 300 so i can maximise replies. but it is hard!
