your friends list do you notify them on or off. i ON all the notifications on my friends list. but i find it funny that most of them are not responding at my discussion. well of course i dont expect them to be at every discussion i make. i know that.... but i am observing that for more than two months that most of my friends on my friends list are not responding at my discussion. while me on my side i am trying my very best to response on their discussion as long as i know what the discussion was all about.
i should start cleaning up my friends list.

If they are friends that post things that i know I will more then likely respond to, then they are on. Since I'm just learning things here I didn't want to get in over my head. Not everyone responds to me but that's ok. As long as I get a good friend base and keep up with it, I'm alright.
You should know who your steady readers are.

i know who are my steady readers i am a member for almost two years already so that is easy to determine that. this discussion will determine if i need to delete some or not. give them atleast a month to see if they are getting in my discussions or it is just a one way street. thanks a lot for the response. so you think that i would be doing the wrond thing by deleting them?

thanks for commenting back TL. you got a point that i can still earn on responding at their discussion and i think that is fair enough. i will might as well think about it all over again. thanks for the input and thanks a lot for commenting back.

I'm not sure. I know if it's about you earning on this site it may be better to answer theirs because you still get paid for it.
If you are here for friends then Keep who ever you think is good to read and respond to.
I like the fact that I have a different set of folks on my list. They all post different things. Sometimes I can add something and sometimes I can't. I just do the best I can.

yes. i would like to c lean out my list too. i know the ones who are not logging in at times but knows how to catch up. i dont like the ones who i know are rugulars for they have new discussions everyday.... but cant afford to response even once in a while on mine. so out they go. they still have time. i will be giving them atleast a month to hear their side. thanks a lot for the response

Hello se7enth,yes this is the case with all of us here.I too have many friends on my list who have sent notifications and become my friends.But there are only a handful of them with whom I interact regularly.I leave the notifications on when I add new friends,but sometimes I am forced to switch off the notifications of some of the others.Neither do they respond to any of my discussions nor do they start any discussions which cater to my interests.And there are others who are not active any more or who mylot only occasionally.The only option left is to look out for new friends all the time.

it was good to read your response. i felt a one way situation on some of my friends who are on my list that i response to their discussion but they dont response to mine. i mean thats the reason why it is called friends list right? if i will only be the one responding at their discussion then they wont response to mine then there is no reason why they will be standing at my list. maybe some will feel that i am boastful but i think that is mainly the reason why you accept them as friends. you help me and i will help you. thanks a lot for the response

well se7enth,we have to accept the fact that the definition of friendship varies for different people.So I never spent much time pondering over the 'ifs' and 'buts ',and just try to have a good time while mylotting and I always stay in a safe comfort zone while doing it.Happy mylotting to you too,have fun......

well it is nice to hear that you still make your way to response at your friends discussion so notification is no longer a topic for you if you should turn it on or off. i wouldrather delete people on my list who are not responding. i dont think they dont treat me as a friend by not responding at my discussion. thanks a lot for the response

by just your this discussion you are unintentionallly getting concern for the notification part and to get more response from your friend

not actually. you miss the whole point. i am poiting out of helping one another. that is why you call it friends list because you qualify them as your friends. i really dont mind if the ones on my list response once in a while that is their right but the ones on my list who does not response at all is not treating me as a friend. so i think i need to choose properly. thanks a lot for the response.

i can say that i also wonder sometimes the way you do. sometimes i am thinking where are all my friends? o have a few really good friends and i do have friends that are constante responder. i also try to make sure that i responded on my friends discussion as long that i understand what they are trying to discuss. i want to clean out my friends list too for i know some other were deleted by mylot already if they no longer visit mylot.

I must have them off, I never get anything from mylot. I never set it that way, so I don't know why they are off. I get a lot of email already, I would rather just look up my friends when I get here and see what they have done.

but do you get your earnings? i think that is more important har har har. as long as you can get your earnings from mylot then that will be fine i guess. that is very tiring to surf around for what friends started than see it on the email.... have your tried to change email just to see if the notification will get through? thanks a lot for the response

I have my notifications on but a lot of times I don't know when any of my friends start discussions because I don't check my E-mail.

thanks for the fast response. so what is your purpose for turning the notification on? har har har. i dont find any reason why you need to turn it on then wont check your email. but that is your style, i just find it kind of weird to turning it on then not checking your mail. maybe there are thousands of emails already there. i can imagine. if i can not log in at mylot for 2 weeks i open it and find really tons of emails. but i do know how to catch up with them. thanks a lot for the response
