here in mylot... when it seems like you can't find a single discussion to respond to?... this is my problem today... i can't think of any discussion to post (except for this one)... i can't find anything that i would like to respond to... out of the millions of discussion... that seems impossible... but that is my case right now... So i decided to dedicate my time in giving best responses to my unresolved discussions... i have like 20... so it think that would cover the my time here... So how about you?... how do you spend your idle mylot time?...

Well if I cant find any discussions that interest me that is my sign to log off and do something else with my time and check in later with Mylot. But I dont work so I have all day and night to make time for Mylot.

I can only participate in discussions when i am in the office... so at home i still log in to mylot through my cell phone... but during that time i can only read discussions... so most of my friends are already asleep since i am in an entirely different time zone when i log in during the day... thanks for the response...

There are time where I can't also find any interesting topic to respond and most of the time, I don't post since I can't think of any good topic! I usually browse in any of new topic, hot topic,top discussions and sometimes, try to respond on any topic which has no responses or were just posted!

maybe that's the reason too! So, maybe you need to change your routine, instead of visiting often, got to do it like three times a week in that manner, when you log in, you are sure, you can really find topic to inter act with!LOL! For me, there are days that I can just respond like 5, due to that problem!

Sometimes I just gaze on other topics, stare at the monitor, still hoping to find something that could make my day and respond to it. And if in-case I haven't seen any, I would logout then maybe come back after an hour or two to see if there's already something that I can post at. That happens to me every once in a while, I've searched almost everywhere and can't really find anything that interests me..

So it doesn't only happen to me... i think most of those who have been active here for a while experience this sort of thing... well, it would certainly help to get a little break from mylot... that would replenish our energy in responding to discussions... thanks for the response...

You are fairly new here in mylot... so choosing discussions to respond to is quite easy... there are indeed a lot of things to do here... but once one has done it over and over again... it becomes quite tiring... but mylot is still a great site... thanks for the response...

aseretdd with all the hundreds of discussions you must be very picky if you cannot find one to respond to are you sure you looked at all the different ones.how about those with no responses. why not respond and help a newbie at the same time.I spend my time on mylot mostly responding to discussions and checking on my own discussions and giving best responses.

I am not actually picky with the discussions... but the past few days... i find myself bored with all the discussions repeated over and over again... same ones... but worded differently... i think i just need a short break from mylot... thanks for the response...

I usually visit my discussions i've started and my unresolved discussions. This way, i still engage to mylot in a productive way and lessens my unresolved discussions which I have tons. The section I really wanted to visit is my discussions i've responded to but I just don't have time anymore..

We actually do the same thing... i love getting the best response mark... so i return the favor by choosing one from those who responded to my discussions... and that takes a lot of time... especially when we start a lot of discussions in one day... thanks for the response...

I spend here in my lot minimum 6 hours maximum 10 hours in a day so i have good friends now at the same time getting some money from site people so recently i have reached 500 posts land mark so i think i have less Unresolved discussions so how do you get replies for those discussions.

Yes, there are days when I can find nothing good to respond to...especially since I've turned my notification off. There are a few things I do then. One is to check all my discussions to see if I've missed any responses or comments (I'm not always notified of responses...myLot sometimes slips up). I also have a folder of discussions I wanted to respond to and didn't have the time...since last month and I go through that if I can find anything interesting in those old discussions. I also go through my friend's profiles for their old discussions that I find interesting...and through that I sometimes get similar discussions of interest. All these keep me busy when I can't find new interesting discussions.

I usally read and respond to my friends first or the emails I recive from mylot. Then I go to mylot and look for top discussions. I also search discussions like a movie I just saw I look it up to see if there are discussions about the movie I have seen.

That is understandable. I think we all need a break from this site every now and then. I get bored with this site myself from time to time. Espically when I feel like I'm not going to reach payout for the month. Which I almost feel this way this month. I haven't even made 5.00 yet and the month is half over.

This has been happening to me for the last few days. If I can't find anything I want to respond to then I log out and check back later. I have other things I do online that I make more money with so if I don't have anything to say here then I go elsewhere for a while. :)

I make sure I get to all my friend's discussions. I have everyone's notifications on, so I always have plenty of discussions to choose from. I think it is important to answer my friend's discussions before I go to anything else. Then I go to random users in those discussions and check out the discussions they have on their profile. And I go from there.

I understand what you mean. There are also times when I find myself staring blankly on my monitor just because I can't think of any discussion to start or I can't find a discussion that I can respond to. Sometimes, I open other sites so that I can use the otherwise idle time to search for possible topics to work on. At times, I also go over my unresolved discussions and give best responses. There are instances when I simply work on other GPT sites that I am a member of.

i usually just enjoy reading other people's discussions and responses if i can't find anything that i want to respond to or i am not in the mood to post... sometimes just reading other people's discussions can be lots of fun and you can gain a lot of knowledge from there... that's what i do on my idle time here... take care and have a nice day...

I had a day a couple days ago when I couldn't find a discussion I wanted to respond. I don't think it was necessarily the discussions, it was more me. I did a few unresolved discussions, but didn't want to do that either. I just got off the site and handled some other kinds of emails. I did some surveys and responded to personal emails and got off the computer completely.

I do not come on to mylot every day. In fact, I do not really think of posting or responding on a regular basis. And, I should say I am a bit selective in picking the ones I like to respond. That's not because I do not appreciate the postings. I value all the efforts being made by mylotters ! I respond to only those which I feel I have a reasonably logical views and answers !

Hello aseretdd, Since I am a little bit far behind here, this is what I am doing- I am digging old discussions. I don't have any new notifications - been here since 8.30 a.m. and I got like less than 5 new notifications. Oh, I am having a lot of free time this week and maybe for the whole month of August since my boss is on holiday. I really hope I can spend more time here; responding and starting new discussion. An hour ago, I wasn't doing anything except staring at my computer screen especially my e-mail page, waiting for the next notification!

It is good that there are a lot of mylotters here who go out of their way to help the newbies... i do that sometimes... but i still am quite careful... since some discussions they start tend to be deleted at one point... i just do not know why... thanks for the response...
