Hi friends, I am not sure how many have you noticed the new feature on mylot. One of my responses was marked as the best response by one of the dear friends here. When I received the alert for the same, not only the gist of the discussion was there, but my precise response was also highlighted in the alert along with the discussion. Earlier, there was not any such notifications (read facility), one needed to go to mylot for checking, in which discussion one was given the best responses. I could see the discussion and my (best) response in my mail inbox straight away. I appreciate this feature very much and would like to thank whole-heartedly to mylot. Kudos to them for introducing such a wonderful feature.

I have got a email entitled , Congratulations you have been granted a best response.I think that is great. Before I would get a best response but I wouldn't know until much, later.

HI Sara!
You see on getting the best response, I would receive a notification in this regard, however, untill and unless I would open the link, I would not come to know about the precise discussion and my response. However, now they have (Mylot) have incorporated the discussion and the best marked responses in the alert/notification itself, which helps us to a great extent.
Thanks for sharing.

Is that so? Really! I think that's a great inclusion. We hardly can keep tab of the best responses and for someone who doesn't get the notifications atall, it gets even more difficult. Thanks to mylot. I am awaiting the unveiling of the new look of mylot soon. let's keep our fingers crossed.

Hi Dpk...when you started this discussion yesterday I did not answer because I had not received any BRs recently.But lo and behold I saw a Br for one of my responses in my mail box the very same evening...
..Its the first one I have received since my come back and all the findings you have mentioned in your post have been proved by it..Yes this is indeed a nice feature ,for not only are we notified about the Br ,but the very discussion and our long forgotten response is also sent back to us....This will definitely save us a lot of time and effort for recollecting our responses and it also makes it easier for us to sent a thank you note to the donar.....
Three cheers to mylot...hip hip hurray..........

Go Ask Alice has been on the job for a whole lot of new features and we will see them introduced one by one. Many of us have contributed to suggesting improvements and she has been very eagerly looking into the possibility of adding them. This is what I like about this site unlike many others where we do not even know who we are dealing with. Kudos to Go Ask Alice!

This is interesting. I have not yet received any Best Response after this development. I am eagerly waiting for that to have the joy of seeing the new feature.

Hello dpk262006,
When I read your discussion for the first time, I didn't realize the new features here. Yesterday, I received 2 notifications from mylot, telling me that my responses have been deleted due to the discussion started by someone here being deleted by mylot. That's cool (the notification) and sad (in term of $$$) too

I have gotten quite a few people who marked my comment as the best response for their discussion. I thought that was really fun and cool when it happened. Once in a great while I will think a comment is so awesomely said on my discussion that I will go and choose it for the best response. Today I thought about it and was like I dont choose the best repsonses often enough so I went through about 5 of my discussions that got a lot of comments and picked which one I wanted for the best response. If we actually earned money from getting our comment marked with a best response I would be more likely to choose a best response to help others out who were nice enough to take the time to comment on my discussion.

It is great isn’t it? I noticed it last week and I loved not having to enter the forum just to see which response earned me a BR! I felt happy about it and the fact that myLot admin is clearly working on improving the site and listening to the members. I still love it after all this time and it is good to see things getting better and easier for us. I appreciate Alice coming here to talk to us too; that was well worth it.

Hello my friend dpk262006 Ji,
Well, I am too aware about it, as I did watch, but my suggestion was to provide small window,whenwe ar making comments on our previous string, so that we will be more justified, whereas, while replying, only the original is kept opened. My link is lost, which I have to think. No doubt myLot ha simproved a bit, but as per saying there is always a room for improvements
May God bless You and have a great time.

I did notice and was at first confused by it, lol. I also noticed that now when you receive an email you have the option of responding via one link or viewing the entire discussion first via another.

Hi dpk! Yes I have noticed this new feature too! And it is really
wonderful! I love it and so do all the mylotters! It is so
great to not have to guess what discussion we have received
the best response from! I like to thank the person who has
given me a best response because I want them to know how much
I truly appreciate it and how much it truly means to me! This
makes it so much easier and alot less time consuming! I think
that this was probably the work of our wonderful admin friend
Alice and I would certainly like to thank her!

I noticed this, but since I'm a newbie, I thought it was the norm. Of course this is when and if my notifications are working. It seems to be an on again/off again proposition with me. And right now, my notifications are not working.
Yes, yes, all my little boxes are checked under preferences notifications, I have reset, rebooted, checked the Junk Mail folder, but alas... all I receive these days is the myLot Digest.

Thanks for telling us this. I did not know about this new feature as I have never received anything like that in my short stay here. I hope to get one before I reach 1,000, at least. LOL

I haven't noticed this yet (gotta check it out right away XD). I hope myLot will add more interesting features..actually I don't know much of myLot's features as of now because i'm still a newbie here. I'll be glad if somebody teaches me. Btw, when did myLot add this feature to the discussion?
