Are we really obliged to mark best response one of those who responded our discussion? I've been creating discussions but I seldom mark best response only if I will see that many did responded to it. But what will happen if I will just leave the discussion without marking even if I received many response? And why is it also when we will marked it best response will be replaced to mylot? And will the one who has been marked will receive rewards like or earn? How about you when will you tick the button best response?

Selecting Best Response is not compulsory. It simply takes it from you unresolved tab. There are no earnings with Best Response, it simply allows a member to get Boasting Rights. It is always a great feeling to receive it, as it says the discussion starter found the response to be the most helpful and useful to the discussion. You really do not have to select one as sometimes you will find more then one person having a best response and since we can only select one, some members will leave it unresolved. To date though I do not start many discussions and do take a while to resolve I have managed to select the BR's.

So it's not a compulsory and we will not receive reward from it, cause I thought that we will earn too if we will be marked. Yes I also experienced rated as the best response but I never know I was marked I only knew it when I read my email but I was still a great feeling.lol I wish a will be mark again.lol Moreover I f i will chose the best response no one can respond to it anymore.?

"Moreover I f i will chose the best response no one can respond to it anymore.?" Discussions here on myLot are NEVER closed, even after the BR has been awarded. We can continue to particpate in them regardless of whether it has been chosen or not.

As mysd confirmed discussions never close here on myLot. In fact even if you are no longer a member here a discussion can receive responses. There have been plenty of times I have seen discussions re-lived which was 5 years old. We do not have to comment back to the members, as it is a choice but do keep in mind anything posted here in myLot will live on and readily responded to, as long as the myLot is online.

Hello Mackenzie_jad228, In my opinion we should always choose best response from the responses you get on the discussion to motivate people if you find any response good.It is not mandatory though to select BR.It does not help to earn more to the user whose response you select as BR. I have not seen any instance till that i have selected BR and MYLOT changed it though i have an incident that mine response was selected as BR by someone and that discussion was deleted by Admin that was very panicky for me as i rarely get BRs and if deleted by admin it really hurts but then it was violation of guidelines thats why it was deleted don't mind it now as it has to be deleted. May be you too have come across such situation that the BR you had selected may be deleted by ADMIN due to same reason but in that case too admin don't select BR automatically.

Hi when you told me that our BR get deleted it reminded me that I was once rated as best response. Now, I try to look if my BR is still there and is not deleted, it's no longer there I don't know if i was deleted or something but it's no longer. But the good thing is I also found out that I have 2 another BR in my best response tab,I wouldn't knew about it if you never mentioned.lol. I'm happy that I was rated before as BR and just noticed it today..hahaha.

Hello Mackenzie_jad228, To know it if you have received the BR i think you must ON your notification so that you may instantly know that you have received BR from someone. I always get the notification whenever i get it though i have rarely got that.

I already set my notification to receive mails in my yahoo, but the problem is I'm not always reading emails due to I've been receiving different mails from different online earning that I join.

I try to rate mine. I think its awfully nice when people respond to your discussions. It also helps us understand what others are interested in. I wait sometimes a couple of weeks, but I try to keep my articles fresh and up and try to be honest to me who I feel deserved the best response. Sometimes you will find 2 answers that can be classified best response. I will take those two and reread them and see what they each pointed out that stood out to my discussion and that is how I pick the best repsonse. I am not sure if it has anything to do with the rating or not. But when someone gives me a best response I go and thank them as I get an email when there is a best response for me. I just feel if someone thinks I wrote a good discussion to comment on it then I owe it to the people that excerted their time in responding to it.

Indeed, it's a very nice feeling if we receive many responses, especially in times we're stuck and confused and had no one but the people here to give us advices.

I think this is one of our roles here in myLot and as a member we are obliged to do so. I don't think earning has something to do with this but if you are a member of a community, you must do your role as to really belong and contribute to the community. We all want myLot to succeed and last long, isn't it? Then why not follow all the rules!

As stated above by some members. It is not an obligation. It's more on giving the one who responded the best his/her reward or one way of thanking him/her for giving the best possible help. Yes of course I will tick the BR if I'm contented with the responses that I received but if I want more of course I want to wait for the others.

I seldom choose a best response in my discussion as well, mackenzie. I only choose one when I really like what I read. But I'm curious as well as to the earning potentials of this feature. After reading some of the responses here, I know more! So thanks for posting this query! I learned something new again today.

Hello Mackenzie, Like many others here, I must also say it is not compulsory but it is simply a way of appreciating others' thoughts or comments on the topic we are posting. Simply knowing or letting know that there are some who can somehow we can see to eye with certain views. For me, receiving BR in a post makes me feel so valuable and sensible. It gives me more confidence that I can share something that others can find helpful. With or without BR rating I think we are still free to speak up our minds and freely tell others how we see things in our very own point of view. :-)

Yup I do believe so that it's not an obligation. It's our discretion to mark those people with BR. And it's one way of thanking them for giving us the ideas we never thought would be of great help.

Those no reward when you get a best response or when you pick a best response.I just like to give people best response because I like to get best response and plus I don't like seeing all those unresolved discussions in the unresolved tab.I pick one regardless of how many people comment on my discussion i just pick the one i think was best.

we will not get any earning from Best Response. Either to who are choosing BR or to whom it is giving will not get any money. But it is a happy feel that we have these many best responses, we have this much of good my lot history. It gives us, self satisfaction.
