Thought provoking discussions

Tweet

Hi people. I, like many people, love thought provoking discussions. You know, the ones that ask you something that really makes you think and consider the answer, and then respond with a well thought out and elaborate answer. Well maybe that's not everyone's definition of thought provoking, but it is mine or at least part of it. So, I am wondering for all of you, what is the most thought provoking myLot discussion you have ever responded to, at least that you remember, and what is your personal definition of thought provoking. Also, I kind of suck at coming up with good thought provoking discussions. I have done so from time to time but mine seem to be a bit bland, at least to me. So someone give me some ideas of what you would like to see discussions about. If I am going to take the time to write one, I want people to really want to be involved in it. I want it to be the kind of discussion where I can read the comments and actually have something worthwhile to say back, you know like a proper discussion. Most of these things you find lying around mylot aren't discussions, but rather qa type of things and most of the responders don't come back to check it. I know I hardly check the discussions I reply to because whenever I do there are no replies to my responses. Even the people that ask for advice don't answer when you ask a question to try and help them solve their problem. I have seen far too many ones where they want advice and don't give enough info for people to truly help because they don't understand the situation. I realize some of the answers to questions can be personal but it should be responded that they don't feel comfortable sharing or whatever. I try to read over all the discussions I started at least annd if someone leaves a comment I reply to it, but sometimes I feel I am wasting my time. I have started discussions about things like Associated Content and whatever else and people ask for more info. Then I give it to them and half of them never come back to read my response. Anyway though that is a little off the topic. The point is that I am interested in thought provoking subjects to talk about. There was a user before who always started interesting and very thought provoking discussions, but I have not seen them in a very very very long time. I may also try and find their profile and get some ideas from that. Anyway, I will shut up now and wait for your answers. Thanks!
