Why do bother respond to question that you think is irrelevant to you?

If you think that it is irrelevant in the first place you will not bother answering the question, cause for you it is irrelevant and it will not make you happy replying to a uninteresting and irrelevant question that for you is irrelevant. Am i right? Or there are just people who thinks that they are much perfect and after responding to a question, the last part of the statement will be, maybe your topic is irrelevant. But why did he/she answer it in the first place? Isn't that contradicting? What do you think? I will not name the person but he almost say that almost all of the topics that are posted here in mylot is irrelevant.

Yes i was also thinking about that, just to ignore them, but.... how will they learn if we will just ignore them. It's not only being mad because of their doings but i also wanted to help them and make them realize their mistakes in order for them to learn. This site is very good and the essence of this site is also very good. That is why we need to take care of it and teach people on how to learn and how to be sensitive. Yes! we accept the fact that it is the reality here that many people just do it for money and they do not see the real purpose of this site but... it doesn't also mean that we will just ignore them and let them do what they want that we know is very vital for them and for others. Oh by the way you already have thousands of post, wow! How did you do that. I am sure you have lots of ideas. I hope i can reach that crazy number of post too. Thank you so much for responding to this discussion and i really appreciate it. Two thumbs up!

i respond to a subject even if it is not relevant to me if i am interested or if i have questions for others who have experienced whatever it is that has been asked of them. responding for the sake of it is not my thing, but i love to learn about all kinds of things, and sometimes being a part of a discussion that has nothing to do with any of my experiences is a great way to learn things. there are also some topics that ask if you have or have not experienced something, i think that it is only right that i answer either way because that is what the topic post requires.

Good for you cause you respond for the sake of learning not for the sake money or insulting others. It is nice, even if we do not like or know nor not interested to the topic, it's just that sometimes we just really need to choose the proper words to throw.

As far as I can recall I have never responded to a discussion that I didn't feel relevant to me. I might of gone in and read it but not respond. I think it is obvious as to why someone would go in and respond to a discussion that isn't relevant to them...it would be the money that they will be getting from the response even if it isn't that much it is still money.

I don't classify topics here on mylot as relevant or not simply because what's relevant to me is irrelevant to others and vice versa. Mylot members are so diverse, to think that we are inter racial. So i think it is unfair for someone to comment that some discussions here are irrelevant, maybe to him, but not to the person who posted that discussion. If that person thinks it is irrelevant he can just look for other discussions that would be of interest to him as i'm sure there are a lot, and leave topics that don't interest him in peace. Cheers!

Well am not sure, if i find anything attractive or something that catches my eye in a discussion i do my response,there are times that you sometimes when there is nothing good to discuss at all,some days it may be good,and sometimes there maybe even worse discussions in days that are even difficult to respond to,but those things are rare too,people dont always write good discussions.anyway i try my best to do my reply.
