I had 22 answers to my last discussion - a little record for me, because I usually don't have much success. In the discussion I asked the question: "Homemade or restaurant meals - what is the cheaper?" The interest of myLotters made me think about the topics. Is this topic from our daily life better than some pilosophical or political one? What do you think, what are the best topics to comment?

If the topic is popular, and more people can relate to the topic, then you'll get more responses out of it, no questions asked. The discussions that people can relate to most are the ones that will receive more responses. Have a nice day.

Hi, Mlotta, you are right. That's the word - relate to something. I was just wondering what is exciting for people now because times has changed so much. Have a wonderful day!

It is probably because many here can relate to that topic. I like philosophical topics so personally I have to say philosophical is the best. Everyone have different thoughts, likes, wants, needs, so it varies. But if you are just talking about the best topics that are going to attract many mylotters the best would be the daily stuff you do, or something that many are interested in.

Yes, that's what I mean - things that would gather many people to make a really good conversation. I like philosophical topics too but today it seems that subjects from our daily life are more attractive.

Also if you want attention just post something that many would disagree with you but it doesn't work all the time but when it does, your in for quite a discussion.

That's a good idea but it means that I have to wait for all the answers. And right now I have to go to bed because for me it is three o'clock in the morning...

mh don't know if this topic can become popular or not but i remember that i answered to your previous discussion so in reality i don't think there is a good topic to talk here...it depends..for example those one you posted was ok..and in fact it gained some responses as well...may be the simplest can have many responses because it can interest or answered but almost all users...

Thanks for the answer, Tonyllenium, "the simplest" is a good suggestion. I don't mind if a discussion cannot become popular. But I'm sad when I ask a question because I really want to know what others think about this and nobody shows interest at al.

I feel that online money making is the most well-liked discussions here. If you notice, those which are related to this topic have the most responses.

First of all, let mt congratilate you for the answers and let me remind you too that those answers will not mean more earnings for you unless you comment on them. Now about your discusion: I answered because I love to cook and I love to be taken to good restaurants yet I do not go to fast food ones. I wanted to give my point of view because the post was part of my everyday life and also because you are my friend. I always check the posts my friends start although I don´t always aanswer them. As for political or philosophical posts, it´s so difficult to answer them .Some subjects are apt to start a long conversation and mylot is not made for that although you can do it if you wish. There are no best topics or worse topics. It all depends on your own interests. Take care!

Hi, Marguicha,I liked your answer. It's not about the earnings because they are not so much, but it's good to see that your proposal for a conversation is interesting for others. It's good to make a dialogue too, I see that it happens, but this is a question of a time also. Have a nice day!

I guess there is no right answer for this. It really depends on stuff like: How many will see the post of yours, the fact that you posted it at the correct section, if you have some friends that will see it through your profile and stuff like this! Just keep posting what you think ;)

Thanks for your answer, Valkerion. But I'd really like to know what is intersting for people now, not only conserning my discussions.

The best topic to comment to depends to all mylotters here who can relate to that topic... It depends to their interest and on how they can explain or elaborate what they think should put into that discussion... So it doesn't matter on how easy or difficult the question is... Or a topic that is more on philosophical or political discussion...
