I wonder why my responses are so low.

Maybe it's because of the time I write. Or maybe people just aren't seeing my very interesting discussions. Or maybe there is a conspiracy by other users to post at the same time I do and make my discussions pale by example. Or maybe everyone is asleep. Or maybe no one knows me. Or maybe I didn't use enough deodorant today. *sniffs underarm* Yep...need more deodorant...

I laughed the first time I read this post. I smell the sarcasm right through the internet.. lol.. The US is still sleeping maybe that is why things are off to a slow start.

@hereandthere i think it depends on when you have some time available in your daily schedule to logon.

It is always hard to start a new account, but you have a lot of experience about that.

it's actually good that mylot has a 'recent' tab so all new posts go there. we just have to scroll through the list to pick out what/who we like. then there's also the people tab. in the b site the front page was 'filtered.'

Responses do seem very slow this morning. I am also not seeing a lot of new posts popping up. I think the Mylotters in North America are sleeping in this gray, wet Saturday morning.

@JolietJake how long have you been on Mylot. How many posts do you read and comment on. Unfotunately the number of followers we have is rarely indicative of the popularity of our post.

@Morleyhunt I just started (this account) yesterday. This is my fourth discussion started, and with (76) next to my name, I've been a bit busy. This is really just a light-hearted jest after reading a few other discussions, I know it'll take me some time to get people actually responding.

You are not the only one who have less responses here. I often think that my discussions will not have many responses. I assume that my topics are not funny enough and therefore people have no comment to them.

Its got to be the deodorant, perhaps you are using the wrong brand. I finished going through my notifications yesterday and they all seemed to be likes rather than comments. Perhaps that was all the Bowie references I used. Perhaps it has been a couple of twisted days.

@JolietJake I delete each notification after I have taken action on it (e.g. read it, liked it, commented further).

I've got all my notifications off except for responses/comments directed to me, makes it more manageable

I don't see why you are complaining of a low response. There are plenty of comments here.

Maybe people are busy and haven't got on responses. The same I can say for myself. Be active more and you'll get more in return.

It could be that you aren't interacting enough. If you interact more, people would then notice you and only then when they see how active you are, would they want to follow u and THEN they would keep a watch out for all your posts then on! Try it! :) All the best

I had been here since 2007, So I experienced the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. Just try to be interactive with people and don't be a snub and you will naturally have followers.
