Old discussions: Do you still respond to them?

Yes, I noticed about this quite a long time ago. For me, I only respond to old discussions whenever I can't find a recent discussion that I feel I can respond well to. To look for old discussions on a topic I'm interested to reply in, I normally use the search engine on mylot (middle top of each mylot page). In addition, I also heard somewhere that using the search engine on mylot will help increase your earnings because you're helping mylot to generate some revenue from searching. Not sure to what extent this is true but it's still useful nonetheless.

yes of course if you are paid for writing then why not write and write and write.........

I dont really look at how old the discussion is, if I feel I can respond to it, then I will. My own discussions that I have started a year ago have been responded to recently, and I think its great to still keep getting different responses.

Hi I respond to any discussion no matter how old it is. In fact I recently responded to one that was below a new one that I had responded to and it was a year old. I apologised for late response but I had noticed it and felt I wanted to comment. They responded back and I am now friend with the lovely lady that had posted it, so to me it was very worthwhile. I usually tend on general though to respond to more recent ones but if I have been away for a few days will play catch up on any of my friends discussions that I have missed. Well done for you to answer older ones that are of interest too. Keep up the good work. Ellie :D

I usually respond newly started discussions. First of all i checked discussion's staring time. If it is more then one month old then i don't reply it. Because Mylot deleted older discussions and if you will respond them then you can lose your points. So always try to respond in new and fresh discussions. Thanks

I make response to topics that are interesting and I can respond to. After responded , did I notice that the topic was posted a few months ago, some even a year ago. That's ok , I think !

Sometimes I'll respond, it depends on the content. If it's something that happened a year ago and it really doesn't mean anything (like a holiday topic) then I'll pass on it. If it's something that still matters today (how do you feel about something) I might respond.

I do i don't care if it's i year ago as long it's catches my interest i respond.

I believe those dates have always been there, jofeli, however, you cannot always take them at face value. That is to say that they are sometimes misleading. I have often responded to a discussion from a profile page that was actually posted many months before.

Yes after reading your post, I've also noticed the old discussions and some of these very interesting too. So, I hope, you got your answer, from now onwards I'd look for the old discussions and answer them too.

yes if it interest me.

When i first started i used to respond to discussions from as far as a year ago, without noticing until it was too late. but i don't really do so now i look for those that were at least posted in the last month.

Yes, if it interests me, I will. It may bring the topic up for discussion again.

No, I just reply some the newest post .But I think you are a good person . Have a good day!

yeah i do add a comment even if i posted it a year , months ago...and i even responded also to those discussions that are old ones...

If it's a discussion I find interesting, I respond. Even if it's almost a year old. It's not 'cause it's old that you can't give new information to it.

Yes I do still respond to old discussions! I respond to them, and then I notice the date on them as being 8 or so months ago. If the discussion is interesting then why not? I do not think that it matters, if it did then they would not still be circulating. It must be a bit of a shock to the person that sets them though to get a response for them all those months later!

If I have something to say, a little date in the corner isn't gonna stop me! hehe... I don't see why I wouldn't reply - unless the topic itself was 'dated' (i.e. the last presidential election) So, I'm with you; I'll respond if I have an interest in the subject.

Sometimes I read some discussions responded long before.As referring to whether to respond them,that depends on whether Im interested in those topics,and that's also why I respond.

if it interests me, i will response if it was posted by someone i know, i will response that is my answer
