Is it possible to get at least 100 responses to a discussion? I haven't seen that yet. I think I have seen about 80+ replies to a thread. What kind of discussions do you think would get a huge number of responses? What's the most number of responses have you received?

I cant think of discussions that will help me receive 100 responses. I only have 11 to 12 responses and no further. I hope someday I can think of a great post that will allow everybody to posts responses more than hundreds hehe!

You will never know until you try. Just keep on posting and one day, you'll attract more responses.

certainly yes. once i made a dicussion called " how do you feel when you go shopping alone", it received 134 responses. and it's the highest record of responses i've received. i don't why it can receive so many reponses, and it's definitely beyond my expection. no doubt it really makes me very happy. :)

That's awesome. I guess a lot of responders can relate to your situation. You're in the elite group in mylot, then. Great job!

Hi, I think that it is possible to reach but personally, my discussions never achieve it. I think that general topic such as life and relationship will get a lot of responses.

You never know, you might as well get a couple of hundred responses. Someone said he saw a discussion about blogging receive 200 responses. So, just keep on posting.

Well, you've achieved something that most of us here in mylot haven't. I hope you get 100 responses in one or more of your discussions. All the best!

Yes that could be very possible especially if you are chosen to land on top discussions but I would not really know what topic attracts most of the users here. As for me the most responses I got is perhaps if am not mistaken is up to 20 and I'm already happy with it. Happy posting!

You may be right, no one can really say what topic could get a huge response. 20 is a good number. Maybe your next discussion would get more.

the easiest way would probably be to make the discussion- "let me see how many posts i can get" or "make the largest discussion" something where people could just write nonsensical stuff to get a record

That's funny, but could work. Some people would rather post on stuff like that. It would not require any brain power.

I have more than 100 discussion topics which have received more than 100 responses. A few of them have received 500 to 600 responses. They are topics on HOW MUCH A HAIRCUT COSTS IN YOUR COUNTRY, (2) HOW MUCH WATER YOU DRINK IN A DAY and the like.

I have been here for over a year now. I think i have somke discussions here that got over 100 responses to them but it was over quite some time. I think you have to start a discussion that members from all over the world can relate to. It has to be available for a wide selection of people. I am not sure what the highest amount of replies that I have received. I have never went back through my discussions to look at them lately.

I've gotten 114 responses to a discussion before. To see it, go here: http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1460036.aspx Its a little rant about some people here on MyLot make it seem like its wrong to be here for the money. I was only griping really, never thought it would get such a huge response!

I don't know what discussion would get that many responses,but i saw a discussion on whether or not people should let people with a few items get ahead of them in the checkout line got a huge number of responses probably at least 80. I have never gotten more than 11 or 12 responses.

Yes, it is very possible. Just the other day, I saw a discussion that had over 100 responses. I have had a few discussions that got near this amount. Say maybe, just 90 responses. The ones that get huge responses would be something that others can relate on as being a similarity in ones life.

As I am new to mylot this may be a stupid question.... How is the relation between responses to a discussion and payout?

Most mylot veterans say that you make money not from the responses to your discussion but to your comments to their responses. Mylot rewards posters for their efforts.

I am sure it is possible but there are a lot of people who don't reply instead just make their own posts that get in the way. I am leaving this post just to try and help you reach the 100 reply mark yourself. guess you have a ways to go but if it doesn't happen you can't blame me.

LOL! Thanks, for your contribution. I don't really aim to get a lot of responses when I start discussions. In fact, I rarely start discussions. I just thought about this idea and posted.

I've had a few discussions that I've gotten more than a hundred responses...I guess it just really depends on what grabs ppl's attention. [b]~~AT PEACE WITHIN~~ **STAND STRONG IN YOUR BELIEFS**[/b]

Yes i guess it is possible i remmeber i saw very few but there was here..some discussions which they had 100 responses as well!! so i think it is rare that a discussion can take 100 or plus posts but possible!!So as regads min i think no one reached this but some have 50-60 or more reponss so i judged they are much too...

My highest so far is 94, but often my number of responses is less than 10. I think because some my discussions start with an idea and not just a simple question. I have seen some very long discussions with more than a hundred responses, and they are generally those which ask a simple question which everyone can answer. Some people do like to add responses to short question discussions, but if I prefer to respond to topics which may get fewer responses but are more serious and interesting.

I haven't seen it yet either, but I think with the right discussion, 100 posts would be definitely possible. I'm new to mylot.com, but have already gotten over 40 responses on just one discussion. I'm not sure what discussion would be a good one to start because I have such a hard time thinking of discussions already. Good luck on finding out.

Yes. It is very much possible to earn 100 or more responses here. I have seen some discussions that does have more than 100 comments. But myself, I think the highest number of comments that I have received as of now is 35. It was not that high. But I am happy that I always get high number of comments from the discussions that I make. Usually I get more than 10 responses. Happy posting
