I don't really know how mylot pays us. If it is because of our new started discussion or a response from a discussion of other people. Well, no matter what it is, I just enjoyed my time here on mylot. I prefer to answer discussions made by others than creating a new one because it is hard to find a topic. Probably most of us has the same preference like me? or if not, how do you guys come up with a good discussion to be started?

I love to respond to topics! Reading them gives me insight into other people from all over the world, and even if no one cares, I like to add my two cents (haha). I always respond because I can never think of a good topic or question in order to start my own discussion, and I get afraid that even if I do, no one would answer!

I like to do both. Although, for some time I was not able to post any discussion until recently. I like to respond to different topics here and I also love to share whatever comes into my mind. But I do not post deliberately, like I have to brainstorm to begin a discussion. If I feel like posting I will, if not then I don't. There are even times that i wanted to share a lot things but I feel very tired and I cannot organize my thoughts so I just read some discussions here and log off.

We are paid by how much we write. Whether it be posting discussions or responding to them. We also get paid for use the search engine on the site. And if you keep a list of ideas for topics you could always have an idea for a discussion. THink what would you like to discuss if it were you.

To respond first because I don't have much time to think of what to post or start a topic here since most members are posting the same questions over and over again. I just do'n't have the time to also discuss things but as for me, I really do enjoy sharing so it is much easier for me to participate in a discussion rather than to post my own question and members would contribute.

I prefer responding to the discussion rather than starting it. I don't have idea what will I discuss and I'm worry if no one will respond to the discussion that I've started.

It really doesn't matter to me, but I like to join in on discussions, but someone has to start to have a discussion.

I respond to more than I start, always have. Not because I lack topics to discuss, I usually am lazy and don't want to tend to my own discussions. When I get in the mood then I start my own. I pull discussions from my personal life as many do. You get paid for starting and responding. You get more when you comment back to the responses in your discussions. If you don't comment back then your loosing out on earning more. I do think that a lot of members here prefer to respond to discussions versus starting and all have different reasons.

I prefer all of them, but it depends on how much time i had. earning through post here is limitless. the only thing that is limited is our time. but lucky me, i have all the time i need to earn more but still not as much as i expected to be. have a nice to you and good luck with posting

I like answering better. It's fun giving your opinion on something. It's also a little difficult for me to start one because of so many topics, it's hard to find which topic will my discussion fall under? Also, i get disappointed when I have few responses. Not because of the money, but because only a few people care to answer (or got tired of answering the same question over and over again)

hello, both of it we can earn and enjoy doing it. When I already have an active account I used to respond in a discussion and not to start anymore because I usually love to answer their topic because for me it is more enjoyable. Haha But usually when I am starting a discussion I usually think of it for how many days and sometimes I just forget it. ha ha

Responding is better, since there are so much questions/discussions going on, it's hard to find a topic that is not already talked about.

I like 'em both. I find myself always questioning things that were, things that are, and things that will never will be. However, when I do so, I am almost always away from internet access :( Thus, I had more discussions responded to than started by me. Like everybody else, I like responding to existing discussions and reading other people's comments, because it gives me an idea about the culture here (I'm fairly new to this site, forgive me.)
