Do you have so many friends here that you have 9 or 10 pages if so how do you keep up with everyone on your friends list? Do you only respond to people on your list or do you just respond for the number and the earnings?I myself dont have lots of friends that way I can keep up with those I do have and maybe really make a friend all earnings aside. I would like to get to know people from different places all over, but really get to know them as far as you can know someone on the internet.So here is my question, Are you true to all your mylot friends or just a few and if your not true to all of them then why do you keep them? Have a great night.

I have lots of pages of friends. First, I have to mention most of them are inactive. When I get the time, I check and delete them. Second thing, my notify is now off for the past one month because I don't have the time to mylot and don't want my e-mail box loaded with notifications. When my notify was on, I would first check the discussions of the people in my friend list and would respond to the ones which interested me. Only after I was done with my set of friends would I look at other discussions (unless I came across one or two interesting discussions under 'Similar discussions') And I would do it everyday....and it wasn't too much of a problem. But I don't have the time to do it now.

I wish my notifications worked I haven't had any in over a month and I have them all turned on but that was the way I kept up with my friends and I always go to the friends first as well.I only have a short time to spend here each day so I do those first.Thanks for your response and have a great evening.

I'm new here so I haven't got more than ten yet. I did respond to the discussions of my friend once. I did the other night. There weren't so many so I have no problem choosing. If I'm having 10 page lists of friends here, obviously I can't attain to their discussion in one day and I prefer replying to the discussions that belongs to top discussion category.

I have over 420 friends I think. I have no idea how many pages of them, maybe 28 or so. I answer discussions etc through my emails and seldom go to thier pages to respond. So I play no favorites etc. I just respond to those that interest me is how I go about it. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

I'm not sure how many pages I have, but they are all 198 in total. Most of them are not active anymore, but I still keep them. I have lots of active friends too, that I do my best to respond at their posts whenever I know I have something to share about the topic. I also respond on other members, especially those who seeks help and needs some advice concerning life and this community as well.

of course why not...thats what friends should be being truthful..lies beget lies isnt it..it can be shown by responding their respected discussions which of course you think you know it..although there are some discussions that cant be responded this will of course due to the broadness or not reallly sure about it..

I have 11 pages of friends but not all of them are still active. I like getting myLot emails to tell me when a friend has started a new discussion. I read all my friends' new discussions but I don't add a response unless it is something I know about or have an opinion on. I also post in many discussions from my interests which are not started by my friends. I think the friends list is a good way to keep up to date with new discussion topics. Because our friends are all over the world they will be starting new discussions at different times of day and night so it is important to get notifications by email. I think it is especially nice to have friends who share my interests and background. We can get to know each other better in our discussions and it is a nice to become familiar with people around the world.

This was a tough question. I tried to response to their topics with my limited time in myLot. Usually i just check on interesting topics my friends made. And of course for friends that response regularly in my topic discussion, I will always try to response back to them too. I had almost a hundred friends here but I think maybe half of them were not active anymore for some reason and another. Or at least i havenot read their topic discussion in the "friend topic discussion" section. Maybe when they had time, they will be back to myLot.

I have only two pages of friends right now and I like to start off by responding to any discussions they might have first then move on to other discussions from there. I have seen some that have 10 pages of friends and I don't know how they keep up w/ them all. I guess they just pick a few each day to respond to. One of my frinds here on my friends list has like 30 pages of friends. I asked him "how do you do it and respond to all of them?" he told me he does a few each day so none of them felt left out. I give him and many others credit on doing this for that's a lot. I'm sure I will be up there in that many friends one day myself but right now it's nice to have the two pages I have to start off with.

I go into my email each morning and respond to all of my friends discussions that are of interest to me or that I can. Then when I run out of those I go into discussions from my interests. Usually by the time I get bored with those or run out of things that interest me there I have a few more in email from friends. I actually have enough friends at this point that I can usually get between 15 and 30 posts just from responding to them. :)

Well, since I just started acquiring friends, I'm trying to get to know them by checking their posts. At the same time, I like to comment on the things that interest me. Since I work a lot, I'm limited to mornings and evenings, if I win the computer time instead of my kids.

I respond to discussions that I like, whether it's my friends' or not. I choose the discussion that will likely to open myself into a new thing, something that brings meaning in my life. I have lots of friends and sometimes some of them respond to my discussions and send me messages. It's real fun to have known them since they come from different countries and it's nice to know what they told us about their countries.
