Does It Make You Mad When Others Comment On Your Post and...

I get annoyed when someone would respond but not even related with my topic. There was an instance just the other day, when a user simply responded by just putting his link on some sites. I noticed that he did it to at least 4 boxes of the responders. What an irresponsible way of responding. he could have just started a discussion, promoting it, which will obviously be deleted anyway.

I think you could report the posts that are off-topic. They violate the Mylot guidelines and they might end up deleted because of that. But if you don't do anything, their authors will keep doing this. I heard that reporting is anonymous, so you shouldn't worry that they will do anything against you.

If they were indeed promoting themselves, they should be reported. I do not remember if I had responded to it, probably not. I tend not to do survey sites, I do not qualify usually. If I had responded there that is what I would have said.

Yep, it could get to that when you're posting here. Sometimes when I start a discussion there will someone who'll post something irrelevant. You'll notice it immediately but sometimes I don't report it because I just don't have time for it.

This is a marketing world and no one want to leave chance of marketing. I feel that this is okay if they do this. They have their own reason for it. If somebody knew about the site you were talking then surely they would have given you the knowledge but I don't think so. I heard the name for the first time and I am sure many have heard it here for the first time. Have a nice day ahead.

if it is a positive and constructive feedback, certainly not a problem. but if the responses is distorted,and the offending tribe,race religion, color, surely this will make other people feel offended and uncomfortable, so, no matter if the response is positive and constructive..

There are just this people who just don't know the proper things to say. We can't avoid that. Some just comment for just sake of posting a comment. It can really be annoying.

Yes,sometimes it is so annoying that someone wrote something that is not related to the topic and posted something that is confusing. I appreciate if the responder come back and saying it's a wrong post,then i wouldn't mind. But if it intentionally written just to confuse or to make something funny about my topic,then it would really send me off. Not to mention those who just post referral link (not so obvious) but saying he/she sent me a PM and that i need to checked it. Then when I checked it's just a referral link have a good day

Well, i had some experienced that before but it dosent matter if anyone of the reply comment based on my subject thats enough for me, then again people should really focus on whats in the topic and comment accordingly not on their own basis. there are people sometimes who doesn't understand what is being said so they improvise it to their understanding, so we feels like they comment on something entirely different.

Yes I did notice that the other day, sorry I did not respond to the discussion as I did not have any knowledge of the site. After reading the responses I could not learn anything from the discussion as some of the responses were irrelevant. It would certainly annoy me as you spent time creating a discussion and not only hoping to learn and or pick up some knowledge the responders wasted efforts. This also goes for anyone who searches abut the site in your discussion and end up reading irrelevant responses. Main reason I do try not to enter discussion I do not have useful and helpful information with. As it is not right and also not allowed here.

Hi linda, It gets to us when people just advance their own agenda and disregarding what is talked about. You are right to claim that the discussion should not digress from the topic at hand. If they want to, they should start their own discussions about their own preferred subjects.

I have had it happen and it drives me crazy too. They shouldn't respond at all if it has nothing to do with your topic they should start one of their own. I feel for you.

i haven't had that yet but i have posted something really personal and i was so mad someone basically took it as a joke and made fun of what i said...it was beyond hurtful and disrespectful

yeah, true, but this is the internet. few people obey rules in life, so why would they obey them online? You maybe expect too much from people.

I have never received any response that does not fit with my discussion. If I receive a response, which does not correspond to my discussion, I certainly would be very disappointed. I will say it mildly, and did not touch on.
