Are you giving the BRs ???

You did add few feathers to my cap Raj, thank you for the recognition and hope my shared views have given deeper insight to topic discussed. Giving out BRs is the ultimate aim of any discussion which in itself automatically resolve the discussions. It is, I think the toughest task when it comes to choosing which response deserved to be awarded the BRs as all responses have their own strength and their views in addressing the issues discussed are worth taking into consideration. In fact I am guilty of not resolving many of my discussions and it has become a torn in the flesh as the pages are adding up so fast without having any clue as to when I can go through them and finally resolving them. I wish to make an effort now to go to individual discussion and award the BRs to the most deserving recipient. Thanks for this reminder. Will resolve all discussions progressively.

i will just try to wait it out and hope some one br worthy will reply.. but if it does get way too old i will some times give it to an okay reply but not as good as i expected just to close it out

I rarely get to do maintenance like choosing BR. I really need to do that but there doesn't seem to be enough time to do it, I have to schedule that task and eventually I'll catch up with it! I really have some wonderful responses and they deserve BR if they earn it, I just have to make time.

I usually have a hard time deciding who has given the best response so I hold off on them. If there is an exceptional comment, though, one that completely answers whatever question I have or has the best advice, I give a BR. Usually, there are so many great responses that it's impossible to choose which one is best. Sometimes, the real best response comes soon after giving a BR to someone else, so I've learned to hold off for awhile.

I always try to resolve my discussions and I use a variety of criteria for choosing which response is best.

Hi krajibg, I will give a best response but prefer to wait for 3- 4 weeks to see what kind of responses come in and to keep the discussion alive. I gave a BR today to something I asked yesterday as basically it was a question on a Mylot thing which I couldn't work out and someone provided the solution so as far as I was concerned that question was immediately resolved. You can go back into the unresolved box later on and give your BR's then .

I give best responses. I try to give it to those who answered the question or came close to it or really understood what it was about. But then I hate to see unresolved discussions, so I try to give it as soon as possible. But sometimes it does not work out that way and I may have to wait a year until someone really answers the discussion.

I really would like to settle some of my discussions by awarding someone who participated with the best response award but, aside from being busy with things, there are also times wherein I think someone is yet to respond to my discussin to earn that best response. I have gone to some of my discussions that are really old and have seen that some still need to wait for a particular post that would be related with my discussion. Then again, awarding the best response is always subjective. The best response that I might recognize wouldn't be recognized the same way by other members who get to read or participate in my discussions. Preference is up to me when it comes to my discussions after all. I guess I would continue giving best reponse awards later on when I am not that busy any more and whenever I'm here in this site and not participating in other discussions, I could probably occupy myself with that. (^_^ )

I always choose the best response. As I think it's a kind of appreciation to the people who have responded to my discussions. Usually I will decide which is the best after one week. So there will be enough people to reply to it. If I am very busy and therefore I haven't chosen the best response yet. Be sure I will do it later whenever I have free time. I love China

I do receive excellent responses to my postings. Mylot community is a well-informed and very thoughtful community. I certainly wish to thank all responders, and I certainly do give BRs as I proceed reading the responses. This ofcourse, I do have to give some time for as many responses as interests show.

Hi Rajib, So far I have always given a BR to all of my discussions. I usually wait a couple of weeks in case more people respond. I know that some people give a best response award the same day that they post. Blessings.

Yeah I give away the Best Response to the deserving MyLotter on every discussion that I make. Giving the BR means that you really read their responses and that you've appreciated that particular response. More often than not, it's an avenue for new friendships.

Hello my friend Rajib Ji, I think you are following real concept and doing perfect justification as per your own thinking. It may not suit to all and others, but once it satisfies you, is something great .May god bless You and have a great time.

Hi Rajib, This is a good move. I have observed that many veteran do not select a BR. Why should not they? I can tell some names - dragon, opal, zandi ( she is not regular.) This is a kind of recognition. I salute your spirit.

Hi Rajib, I don’t give BRs though I love receiving them LOL No but seriously, I start discussions only when I am in a real fix over something or I am dying to share something with friends here…in either case, I have come across such wonderful responses that they have really made my day. Now just take my last discussion on my son’s insolence…I was surprised and touched that so many people the world over had exactly similar feelings towards the relation of mother and child and almost every response had some gem in it. what am I to do in such a case…I really wish mylot had a system of multiple BRs (PK that’s not possible I know, one cant have 2 ‘best’ things) and the rating system is there too…maybe they could do away with the BR system altogether?! In any case, I have stopped giving BRs as I am too confused!!

I am little bit lazy when it comes to resolving my discussions. On most occasions I mark best instantaneously as and when I find it appealing, nice and substantial. Sometimes when I get more good responses later on, it feels bad. But that's how it works for me. When discussions do not manage good responses I keep them pending for awhile, after which I do give BRs.

Dear friend, I do give most often to my majority of discussions. Moreover I hope it gives a lot of involvement in the dicussion and it is as if a prize or award given for the best one choosen. I hope it is really gives a dignity to the comment.

I give the BR if it is deserved. If it is a repeated or silly discussion I don't. Hopefully others do the same. I don't think anyone on here should get one if it is not deserved. Just a waste of time for others to use this rule and others not also. It should be uniform and everyone on the same page. Hopefully it is.

Hi Rajib, yes I give best responses as I feel it is merited and to thank the person for his contribution in my discussion. I usually wait some time before choosing one but in cases where I had some problem and it was solved I give BR right away. Sometimes it is a bit difficult to choose the best one if there are a lot of replies and it makes me feel guilty to choose one and not the others who also made good points. so there where cases where I did not give BR. Don't know what to do about it. Have a nice day!

I do...if they deserve it...i believe they should be given credit for taking time to respond to your discussion genuinely
