In Your Experience - So How Many Come Back & Say Thank You?

Hmm... I have never really received any thank yous much for dishing out BRs. But I do thank the author of the thread from time to time when I receive one. It is only courteous to acknowledge that you received a best response. But then again, I have been so busy of late, I did not dish out BRs like I used to. Even my activity here has decreased. I sure hope in the coming months it will pick up again. So, friend, long time no see... how are you?

Hello zweeb! I have given some of the best responses a long time ago and honestly, out of 10 best responses I have given, only 3 persons came back and say thank you. Well, I really don't mind because when I give my best response, I made it sure that the person really deserves to have it. Everytime I got a best response, I really made it sure I say thank you to the person. I am saying thank you not because he gave me the best response but because of giving me such happiness and satisfaction.

Well, personally I have never noticed how many do when I hand out my Best Responses, and since we are not really supposed to just reply back to someone with Thank You's I am sure this is why most never tend to respond back to most of them. But if you do get a response for me, I know it is appreciated usually for sure.

Hi zweeb. I always try to comment back to express my gratitude when someone gives me a br, sometimes I send a pm or leave a comment on their profile. There might have been some that I missed out when I was very new here and was still learning the ropes around. As far as getting a note of thanks is concerned, I think I've gotten about more than 50 percent. Thanks and have a blessed Sunday.

Hey zweeb,I actually check the Best responses everytime when I login my lot and I will say thank you once I got BR,I also check the other's "thank you" for giving them the best responses.that really good experience

I would say that about 50% of my best responsers will give a thank you... I am not that great at going and saying thanks for the BR...and that is bad on my part...and I keep telling myself that I need to...only I have been so busy lately and trying to fit mylot in during the day is getting harder with things going on this past week alone....LOL I have to get on everyday no matter what...I am addicted like that, but I really should thank the BR's that I get...my bad!!! happy mylotting!!

I always mention Thank You whenever I recv any Best Responses...it makes me feel good that yes, I have thanked a person for appreciating my thoughts.

I always say thank you to a br. I think it is only polite to do so. But as said before, Mylot does not encourage it. But hey ho! I can't help myself! haha

Hahaha~! You don't fail to come up with simple yet interesting questions to ponder on, zweeb82 As far as I could think of, on my part, whenever I get awarded the best response, I would always like to reply my thanks and not post my gratitude just after another post of mine. I don't know, it seems irregular to post another response after I have posted one already. I want it to be alternate like their reply, my reply, their reply again and so on. Okay, going back to your question, I might think around one out of of four would come back just to say thanks.. well, I'm not really sure if they really got notified about their best response through their email so who knows?

haha =D U will know my response when u have given one to me.. lol =D Just kidding Most of the time when i have received any BR, i will be sure to go back and thank them for it, even though we are not supposed to be thanking for any BR given.. hehe ^_^ Thus, most of the time, i will only be saying thanks for the pencil.. There are some BR as far back as a few months ago, and i actually have forgotten about those discussions till i received the BR from them.. hehe ^_^

That would be nice. generally I don't go back and say thanks. And usually the people I give best response to don't either. It could be as simple as thinking best response is thanks enough.

I have noticed that not many come back, Those that do always add a bit more to their comment too. Personally I do go back but that's just me Just to clear up something from earlier responses. In the Guidelines it says: '(Don't) Thank everyone that responds or comments on your discussion. This will not increase your earnings' This does not mean that if we have been brought up to have a certain type of manners and respect for others we cannot thank them but it does mean that will not be enough. It means that those who just do that will not earn from it but it does not say we cannot do it. I do feel that a little bit of logical thinking is required and sometimes we should put ourselves in someones elses shoes when trying to interpret the Guidelines. They are not as ridiculous as many discussions try to make them

I don't really keep count as to how many go back and say thank you but I can say that I sparingly go back to say thank you as often times I don't even check to see if I have gotten a best response. I'd have to say of the number of responses I may give atleast three or four come back to say "thank ya for the best response".

Hi zweeb! I always say thank you when I get one. I think that most people I have given one has thanked me as well. I'm thinking probably 75% or more will thank you for one. Take care

Some people do thank us for giving them a best response. I have done that before also. It all depends on if I have the time to go and do it.

I actually don't go back and say thank your for it. I'll tell you why. I have had some do that on my discussions. It is nice that they acknowledge and all but at the same time, I feel bad that attention is brought to it. I usually have a tough time choosing a best response. Often there are several who are very good and all very deserving. It's kind of like the same feeling of when you have 3 little kids all showing you artwork and wanting you to decide whose is best....how do you do that? Take them each individually aside and tell each of them...yours was the best but don't tell johnny because we don't want to hurt his feelings. Then you give johnny the same message. Does that make sense?

None comes back to me as I hardly give best response as I hardly start new discussions often but response more. But when I get a best response from another Mylotter, I would also go and comment and say TQ just like you.. I think this habit of saying thanks is cultivated from young. It is good to say thanks.

i don't say thank you. i feel happy though with it. but i don't think it will matter if we will thank the one who gave or reward us with best response. i am not expecting to. but i don't think that any one is expecting to be appreciated for the best response. and i have noticed that many don't bother to give best response any more to their thread they started. cause they got used to being busy with posting and don't any more bother with some minor things like rewarding this best response.

I haven't made a tally on this so I can't really say how many came back to express their gratitude. But I do remember that some of those whom I awarded BRs did response back with their "thank yous". It is okay for me though if someone did say nothing at all after getting the BR. I for one don't do it. Not because I don't appreciate receiving one but rather I am a bit shy and felt awkward sending PM or responding back in the thread for my thank you. I don't know why but I feel I am calling attention to myself and haughtily announcing my BR if I did thank back in the thread.

From ranges from 1 to 10, normally only one would comeback and say thank you.... so i practice it myself to say thank you whenever a favor was granted or given to me by fate, friends, officemates etc.... because I think that maybe this will be a good start so that people will remember it and have the courage to practice it later on in their lives to other people also ....
