Hello friends. I think mylot discussions have reached their limit and now all the discussions are being repeated. Even the new users at mylot posts discussions which had already been posted days before by someone else. What do you think n this regard???Can we do anything in this context... Please share your views with us.

Discussion the same topic is not repeating the same opinion.Actually we talk some same things in daily life.But in different time,we have a different idea of the same thing.There are so many unexpected things in our life.We will change.Thus i think repeating the topic with sharing our experience will bring up valuable ideas.

I am a member for over a year now. I posted a lot of discussions with a lot of different topics. Most of my discussions in the gets repeated or has similar post, posted later or maybe I made it similar to posts created earlier than mine. You maybe true that discussions here reached saturation, but we can still create unique ones, if we try to post things about our personal experiences. These kinds of discussions I made before never got repeat though may still have similarities to experiences of other people and members here.

OK, my friend I agree with you that may be you think this sort of discussion had not been posted currently, but there is still a chance for such. But these sort of happenings occur rarely, and most of time we tend to post a very similar discussion. Sharing your experience is a very good thing here and one should continue on that but may he/she could try to share your experience by responding to some other similar sort of discussion rather than starting a brand new discussion for the same. Thanks for you response and ENJOY MyLoT.

We can try to post more discussions that require thought and debate. That would cut down on the repeated discussions and also raise the quality of the existing ones! This would be a great start to improving the discussions.

Hello friend thanks for your response. Very rightly said, but discussions are not kind of thing which you prepare for whole day and post. They just come to our minds and are being posted immediately. But ofcourse as you said, we should mold our discussion in a way that it may not become a one word question answer type discussion. Enjoy mylotting.

I try to ignore it because I have my days but I don't think its ground for regulation thats just the nature of mylot. Sometimes the fun is shifting through all the conversations and finding the one that suits your taste for that particular day I try not to take the whole 'mylot' thing too serious, its not necessary.

Thanks for your response my friend. I am not trying to make it as a rule that one should not post a similar discussion else his/her earning will be deducted, but in broad case users should try not to duplicate their discussion with a very current discussion, it will not be helpful to any of the two users as their responses will be divided. Enjoy MYLOT......

Hello friend, actually there is no any facility to see all the discussions held on mylot even it is not possible. There is one possibility that mylot admin provide a indexed discussion archive so that one can see which discussions have been published on mylot. If a new myloter joins, he doesn't know about discussions and comments so he just ask very general questions like do u like ice cream or about mobile something.It is just obvious. If we will start new and fresh discussions then only other will be motivated. I mean as you have started this discussion.It is really new. Have a nice day. Keep mylotting.

Actually this discussion has come up time and time again but thats just the point, its natural for discussions to be repeated, dont you do the same with your friends? Maybe where one discussion wasn't relevant to someone at one time now becomes relevant to them and they want to talk about it, well then you just made their day.

Hello friend and thanks for your response. I am sorry but I think your idea of providing an indexed discussion is very good one and will be helpful to the users, but in due course of time atleast user should search among two of three pages of the current discussions page and search for the discussion which he/she wants to start. I think you are right that when new the person try to put up a very general discussion and which actually is creating a herd of similar discussions. Happy MyLotting.

Hello thedeathknight I agree with you, I am new here and find it really hard to come up with something to ask, when I go through the discussions I always find everything I have thought about asking, so what should we do, well I usually just respond and when something comes to mind I start a discussion other than that responding works well for me, not sure what can be done about this issue the more people join the harder it will be, only thing I can suggest is to look into your life or the lives of others around you and just try to be as unique as possible in hopes that someone here have not been through or posted what it is you are thinking lol

Hello kitty. I do agree with you that it is very hard to find some new and interesting discussions out of such a large herd of discussions, and the best we can do is to respond others. Also while starting a discussion atleast we should search that particular discussion in 3-4 pages of the current discussions. If your kind of topic is not in that list then no problem in posting that, but if it is there try to respond to that rather than start a new one. ENJOY MYLOTTING.

hi thedeathknight no mylot discussions have not reached their limits as there may be only so many topics to use but most of the discussions you may notice dwelt on completely different aspects of some same subjects. and there are numerous ways to make discussions that spin off of another discussion but it is absolutely different so I dont think we need worry. and there are many many topics one could pick; I might write about how teachers who are women still do not get p;aid the same wages as a man. you may write about how you think that teachers have it so much easier than others because they are off work during the summers. we both talked About teachers yes but our discussions were altogether different.

Hello friend. Thanks for your response. I just want to say that to shorten this herd of discussion, why should not we discuss the nearly similar topics in the same discussions and not write a completely new discussion for just that. In your example, why should you try to emphasis on a very particular group of people. I think we should start a discussion on a very broad basis so that much people can join. Keep myLotting.

but i think that there are always discussions once a while that we can make that has not been made before. cause we have our own unique experiences in life and we have our own story to tell so i think if make discussions out of them that we can create original one and not just similar to the old topics. i too like to make a topic out of the experiences i had lately or long before so it is something i am pretty sure unique and will have a personal thing to it.

Hello friend, thanks for your response. I would like to say that just for sharing a personal experience, you are starting a new discussion. What you can best do is try to respond in some other similar sort of discussion. There also your views will be seen by all users and whats more important is that may be you can give a new twist to some existing boring discussion. Happy MyLotting.

When I start a discussion I try to think of a topic that's unique. I search the existing discussions first to see if there's already a similar discussion. If there is already a similar discussion, I don't start one anymore and simply answer the existing one. I think we should all do a search in the discussions first before starting a new one to avoid duplication.

According to me discussions are like stories & music. Do you think Music will ever become saturated? Every now & then there is new music being introduced. You can create any story from your imagination or from real life. So I think we can easily come up with more & more topics for discussions Happy Lotting

Hello friend and thanks for your response. You are a very poetic sort of man and with very creative imagination. As you say let us assume that discussions are like music and stories. Now, just tell me one thing, does stories and music repeats like those in discussions. Different music and stories are different and altogether they have different feel and ofcourse as you say discussions can be such by not repeating and thats what I am saying in my post and comments. Enjoy mylotting.

I think that not all mylotters have read all the posts that's why they keep repeating them. Some of them may just be generally curious and is time pressured to browse through the questions posted.

Hello friend. Actually this is what I keep on saying in my whole discussion that people should search atleast two or three pages among current discussion and if they get the same they should not start a new one rather respond to the same. Happy MyLotting.

It really shouldnt be that difficult to think of different subjects for discussion. I mean, you can talk about anything. Do you have ANY IDEA of how many things there are in the world (or out of this world, for that matter!!!) Maybe people need some creativity, or are just to afraid of backlash if they post a "sensative" subject. Maybe its time for a new breed of discussion posters! :)

Hello friend thanks for your response. WELCOME TO MYLOT. I agree with you that there are nearly infinite number of things to discuss, but let me ask one thing are they all relevant. Although there are many things to discuss relevant and innovative things are very less as compared to irrelevant one.... So, keep posting some genuine and innovative discussions. Happy MyLotting.
