Scroll Down to the Lowest Part or You'll Miss Some Responses

This happened to me several times since I "returned" to myLot. I failed to scroll down to the bottom of the computer screen thinking that there's no more responses from myLot friends there.
So I missed replying to some comments which were sent last July 23, a Monday here, or Sunday in your place. I just saw them today when I reviewed my posts and scrolled down to the bottom part. I missed them because there was a big blank space after the last comment on the upper part of the screen.
Sorry for not replying too soon to those I missed.

You are so busy offline? It is understandable for a "balikbayan" (returning citizen) like you.

@acelawrites yes, I am. It is almost 2 months that I have not written a blog. I have a lot of ideas but when I sit down to write, either I was so tired that my eyes were aching or the internet connection was very slow. Worse, there was a brownout

I'm not sure if you're the same person I told you to do just that.

@acelawrites Yeah and I've responded to that discussion only last week too. I mentioned to scroll down so you won't miss anything. If you don't remember me saying that, then probably it wasn't you.

I don't know the person you're referring to. I just returned here last week.

@toniganzon yes, it's not me, because I just posted this a few hours ago today.

@acelawrites Actually I am checking upon notifications so if I can't find the response at top then I scroll down it for sure.

I agree with you. It is better to scroll down fully so we won't miss a comment.

I find needless blank spaces too, possibly there for adverts that have failed to load up

@acelawrites I expect so, but I am only speculating

Maybe it's the reason why there are so many blank spaces.

@acelawrites but when i open my notification indicating my comment, it is on the top of the comment page.

Yes, that's true, like your comment now is at the bottom part of the screen.

It's good that you caught yourself. I always try to keep that very thing in mind but since your post, I will try even harder to cover the whole page.
Thanks for the tip.

You're welcome. At least we will not miss any comment at the lower part of the screen.

I also pull the scroll bar to the bottom. So I can see all the responses.

These past few days I have tendency to go back to old post and check them out. And then learned some one have responded to it. Don't worry I've been busy as well.

@acelawrites don't be. it shows you are appreciative of their comments to you even if it takes too long for you to respond

I feel shy to those who responded and I failed to reply soon.

So you had the same experience? Yes, it is better to scroll down so we won't miss a member's reply.

@acelawrites Yes, I had the same experience. Some of my discussions have many responses and not always I notice those on the bottom.

So true, there are comments which do not appear on the notifications, like this comment of yours, it is at the bottom of the screen with big, big space from the last comment on the upper part of the screen.

@acelawrites
Yes, in the notifications it will only show 2 names on the discussion mentioned. So I check them regularly because I don't miss any comments.

In this case the notifications are helpful. I always respond to each and every notification I get

Yes, notifications help, but sometimes I tend to overlook it, so I need to review my past posts then scroll to the bottom.
