I was surfing mylot a few minutes ago and one of my friends account here got my attention because he has "600+" responses for only one topic. My eyebrows raised in surprised. Does this really happen. I never even got to a hundred. How did he do that. His topic was so ordinary and he got all this responses from a big percentage of mylot population. It really amazed me on how he did it. What about you? What is the highest number of responses that you've got from your topic/discussions? Well, as sad as I am I never reached a hundred yet. And I still have a zero response topic. This makes me feel so bad. What did he do? How did he do it? Hope to hear from you guys!

You are right Tamara. There is a guy here who is very popular. He was on my friends list as well but he had such a high opinion of himself, it offended me after a while. He sucks up to everyone. Obviously a lot of people enjoy this kind of flattery but to me it's false....he has sucked a lot of people in and I really disapprove of that. Ya gotta give him credit though...it earns him a LOT of responses to his petty discussions.

I'm not sure if he really is that popular because I don't follow the top discussion section of mylot. But I guess he has a lot of friends whom he is supporting so maybe thats why they supported him too. Thank you so much for your valuable responses! Have a nice day =)

Hello, Seventy plus is really already a good achievement. Believe it or not I was so amazed when I saw it and I had to read almost all his discussions just to see how interesting his ideas are. They are great and people really just want to reply. yeah, you are right. having lots of friends is one reason for this. Thanks so much for sharing your valuable response. Take care =)

LOL. Don't be sad by 19. Others can't even have more than 10. Just stay foot and you'll have more. Yeah, I've read about 800+. I'd been surfing for it now to study the strategy how it got the attention of a big percentage of mylot's population. Thank you so much for sharing your valuable opinion. Take care =)

hello friend,I think if there are so many people respond the discussion, it must be a common public interest to all members.for me, now, the highest number of the response i got from my discussios is 100 .it is the highest one in all of my discussions.i will make a good effort to get more response in the future.lol good luck

Hi leateagee, I have read a discussion before that the highest responses to a discussion here is almost 800+ about t.v. and computer. But i dont see it by my myself, I have responded to a discussion with more than 480+ responses two months ago about the secret of have many responses. In my discussion , the highest i got so far is About computer.Which i got more than a hundred responses. http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1743912.aspx

WOW! WOW! WOW! 800+ is a certain phenomenal. How did they do that? Technologies really a talk of the town huh. We are all into technologies now but not too deep like discussing its parts because I might not respond, I know less about it. But it is really amazing having 800+. W.O.W.!!!! I think I have responded to that discussions too. You are amazing too, having more than a hundred. Maybe you are very friendly and industrious in replying or discussing your topic with your respondents. Anyway, thanks for sharing your valuable story and opinion. Take care =)

Indeed it is too much. I don't want to believe it either. But if you surf more around you'll see it is possible. Maybe one secret for having many respondents is having many friends supporting you. Thank you so much for responding. Happy mylotting!

This is quite an astronomical figure that I came to know from your discussion about your friend's receiving 600+ responses in myLot! I congratulate your friend for receiving such a high record of responses! Thanks for this nice information and happy mylotting!

I do agree with you that it is an astronomical figure. Until now I am still in a state of amazement that I keep on surfing the whole mylot to see any relations of people way of thinking and attracting them to response to such discussions. I decided to post this to share my hope and joy that we can all do it and these things really happen. Honestly it inspired me. =) Thanks for your valuable response. Take care =)

That really surprises me as well! I guess it may have just been a topic that lots of people felt that thay could answer on. The most responses I've ever had to a topic is 6 and like you I have a topic that no one has ever replied on, although I feel that the topic is something that people could reply to and is not obscure in any way. I guess it just depends on what people see and think they can discuss on here. I'd think myself lucky though if I got 10 replies!!

Yeah you're right. Many people responded because the topic is so light that anyone can share and discuss with it. It is substantial, informative but light. Don't worry just enjoy the site. Its fun here. Thank you so much for sharing your valuable response. Take care =)

I can say that 500 or 600 plus plus responses it too much. If this actually happens, then its topic would be so great that members will go back more times to give their response. I am happy though not that satisfied with my discussions. I am happy that I have no zero discussion and I thank everyone for that, especially my BOF dhangski and richiem who response to my zero responses before. Don't feel so sad with your topics, just do more and more. I know, though we are not always noticed (our discussions) by other members, we still have more friends here.

I cannot answer you how because it really difficult to please people. Sometimes people like political issues, but others like family matters asking advices ... but still at the end it depends on the audience or the readers we have at mylot. Thank you so much for responding. Take care =)

The highest number of responses that I've got from the discussions that I have started was 40. I was really shocked to see it, especially after one day of not signing in here in myLot. I was so happy to see that a lot of people here in myLot gave a positive response in the discussion that I started. Until now, I can't still believe it. But I have to believe it. It's really a happy feeling to be a myLotter.

I do agree with your feeling. I am happy to be a mylotter too. When I was starting I got to gather all my positive energy to fight the loneliness of having a zero response discussion. But as I go on, 1 or two response excites me. For sometime last month I was inactive due to too much errands but I did all of it quickly so that I could check out my friends. I enjoying staying here and discussing with people like you. Thank you so much for your valuable response. Have a great day! =)

Its a good thing at least you got respondents. When I was new, I had lots of zero responses but it didn't make me lose hope. I just love writing and giving opinion. I think we all can make it one day! Thank you so much for responding. Happy mylotting!

Well, I have started many New discussions in here. I know I have discussions with only a few responses back to them, and then I have those with over 50, and a few with higher than a 100 back to them as well. Personally, I always think it is a matter of choice in the time you start your New discussion and the topic as to in how many responses we will often get back to them as well. I know I have started some Newer discussions in here that only get a few responses and I wonder why, and then some that get more still shock me as well. All we can do is a thing of Trial and Error in here as well, and just remember sometimes when you have a lot of Active friends in here trusting you and responding back to you can often help here as well.

Well, i saw a discussion with like 400 responses... and when i checked out the profile of that member... i saw that he had like more than 1,000 friends... i think that helps... because that discussion was sent to many member... it also helped that the topic was quite interesting... I have not reached the 100 responses level yet... the most i had is like 95... but i am hoping that one of this days... i will reach that...

Yes, it is possible, if the discussion has been up on the site for a while. The highest that I got was around 90 to 100 or so.. This person had to have an interesting topic to get so many responses! Hooray to them!

Very impressing that one of your friends got 600+ responses..... one of my discussions got about 1400 responses.... and that was in my dream........ but, I got about 42 responses for a discussion and that was my highest.....

wow, 600 plus is a lot. i had one with about 50 plus. i think having one with 100 is in itself an achievement so i wuold try to work towards one. I also had a few topic which yield no response which is very demoralising. haha. but now i get over it. i am more interested in sharing rather than coming up with some ficticious topic. in this manner, sharing is much easier
@leateagee (3667)

Sharing is better I guess too. People often share what they have experienced than giving a fact about somethings. Simple but interesting idea made this topic a hit. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. Take care =)

600 response is.. OMG! What was his topic about? My highest was the most recent one, about "do you worry what others think about you?" with 35 response... Does every response by others will earn you $$??
