Are You An Organized Poster?

In the beginning when I just started myLotting, I was literally addicted to it. I enjoyed reading and responding discussions and make many friends here. However, as time goes by I tend to visit less. I normally will response to the topic that catch my interest. Normally I logged in to myLot via my email, therefore most of my response are to friends discussion.

I don't think I am an organized poster. Though I don't post too often but when I do I will post anytime when I want to. I am in my drought season now for not having posted anything for quite a while, but I do make my presence felt here by responding to others. At least I am not totally out of touch with mylot.

I only come when I see something that catches my eye. I used to try to start a specific number of discussions a day when I was home but since I'm working, it just doesn't happen that way. Like I'm sitting here outside of Walmart, killing time till my boyfriend gets off work.

Whenever I log into MyLot I never have a plan. I just take a look what's happening around the site and go from there. Usually, I do have a discussion in my head waiting to come out so I type that up first. I never use notes as I'm used to writing in a diary so I have no problems relaying what I have in my brain into MyLot. Each day I do not set a goal as I know I would not enjoy the site if I did this. I tend to use my instincts and yes, my mood does affect the way I post or the frequency. Sometimes, I do find a little break helps too. This is why it doesn't stress me out when I'm at Mum's because it makes a change being away from my computer for a few days. It isn't good for me being online every day of my life lol.

I think that in general I am a very organized person. What I do is I would never start a discussion and walk away from it unless of course there is an emergency. So in order to do this I will only post a discussion when I know I will have the time to respond immediately to the responders. I do see where some post discussions and maybe not come back to it until a day or two. I have seen 3 weeks later too. I suppose what ever works for some is great, but my thinking is that if I post a discussion, which normally I get many responders, that if I continue to respond immediately back it goes back up to the recent discussion tab. This affords the discussion yet many more responders. Also some of my responders leave room for furthering the comment box, so I find if I reply right away they still have the discussion and quieries still fresh and the discussion carries on further. I suppose I treat my discussions the way I do people offline, because I would never start one and leave them to talk amongst themselves and then come back a few days later to ask for a refresher. I do understand that at times some members do not have the time and can't come back to it, that is fine because they always come back to them anyways. The only reason I do mine my way is because I do not start a daily one either so I do not have many to have to tend to. Where as some members start several and it would be impossible for me with the number of responses to keep up with more then one discussion would drive me insane. lol

I'm not sure I'm very organized when posting, but I certainly line enough time to spend here on mylot. And I always make sure to check again all the discussions I've responded. In case there is a comment to a post of mine, I try not to leave it without a response since it would be disrespectful to the person who paid attention to my post or comment. I'm not sure I haven't missed someone but I'm really trying to be correct to people who respect what I've said.

I like to come to myLot every day for a few hours and read through all the discussions that come in my e-mails and makes responses where I feel I can add value or give advice. And then there are some discussions where I can learn some things too. It is great to be able meet so many poeople from all over the world and learn about different cultures. _Derek

Mine depends on how much time I have on my hands...I stop everyday and at least answer my friends' discussion...but if I have more time I'll respond to more..and even start a discussion or two..with spring coming and tons of projects in mind I'll probably won't be starting too many as I like to answer all my responses! But I'll be here everyday if possible.

I should only do a short period of time for the sake of my hands, esp. would be better if I was every other day. But sometimes I can't resist. It depends on what is going on in my life.

If I have spare time on the internet I tend to answer a discussion here and there whilst I think about what else I have to do. I certainly don't set myself any sort of targets.

not really organized. i do it just like you. whenever i see a notification in my email, i decide if i want to and/or have time to go discuss things. if im wondering about something or want to share, i come to mylot to share and or get help with something or to help out a friend if i see the post/discussion i can do.

Can't say I'm organized. However,when the thought for a discussion comes to me, I do my best to be around to respond to those kind enough to join in. Occasionally, just as I post a discussion, I get a call that I need to leave home. Just as soon as I get back, I make sure I sit down & take proper care of my discussion!!! I'm one of those people who speaks from the heart & with much passion, so my thoughts aren't that organized when I begin to write. I zip through what I want to say...then I go back & reread to tweak it into hopefully making some sense...then I read it again for typos & any other problems I might catch!!!

When I first started with MyLot I posted every day several times a day. Then after a while I would visit occasionally. Now I have a daily routine and I try to come here and post every day. I do not post at a certain time I just try to make it every day. I also try to post at least 5 times per day. Most days I get more than 5 posts in but I try to sit my minimum at 5. I am trying to earn more money online and being organized is one of the keys to that!

i just do what i have to do. maybe a little organized, i always try to respond from my friend discussion and most of it from the notification. it helps me to more organized when i have this email notification

Since I work at my computer all day, I'm here all day on and off. I'm kept busy responding to my friends' discussions so I don't start too many of my own. I'll occasionally think of something that I think would be interesting to discuss so I do post discussions at times but for the most part I'm in and out all day with no organization or reason to it.

I do not set aside time each day. I get to it when I can. Some days I have more time on my hands. Some days when I do not have to work, and have caught up on my school work, I'll find myself bored so I have more time to respond to discussions and maybe start a few. Other days when I'm pressed for time I will probably ignore the discussions in my e-mail and certainly won't start any.

i too comes here and participate in the discussions depending on my mood. some times, even if i wanted to be here, my mind speaks the other way. and there are times that even how much eager i am to get on here, there are some more important things to do or when zayzay gets hold of the laptop enjoying his power ranger movies on youtube.

I've never been interested in My lot for the money. I joined cos I loved going on web forums and thought it was neat all my favourite interests were conveniently stacked in one place - one log in, one password, cool! I work from home as a journalist, so between assignments like to get away from the desk. But if I need a water cooler moment this place is the equivalent of the tea room where I used to work. Waste time having a natter, then back to the grindstone. That's why I tend not to start discussions - I never did at work. I joined in with my own thoughts after the topic got going. Typical Cancerian ...

I am a 'spontaneous' person. I hardly plan when I logged into myLot here. I will see and response to the topics that friends started which I can relate to and catch my interest. It is really fun and I really learn a lot when I read through other myLotters responses. It is a way to learn and relax, myLot is a great place to be.

Before any post I usually make an outline about the matter.In many cases it may require changes and I correct it.Sometimes sometimes I neglect it.
