Do you post on myLot regularly (daily?) or occasionally whenever the fancy takes you?

When you've been on the site for some time, you know how many Likes and Comments you get on average. You know how many regular faithful readers you have and if they've all come to read and comment on your post. Add to them some members who only find the way to your site occasionally and a newbie or two. Do you wait until this has happened before you post another discussion or do you post whenever a brilliant idea strikes you even if your last discussion was below average concerning the number of Likes and Comments you usually get? And last but not least, do you ever dream of myLot members flocking to your site like the starlings in the photo? --- P.S. I've found the photo on the net but not the name of the photogapher, so I don't know who to thank for it.

@maluse The sight of a murmuration of starlings is a moving sight indeed. I don’t have a method for publishing my nonsense here - maybe that’s why I don’t have people flocking to read it.

I have a method and I still don't have a murmuration of human starlings flocking to my posts.

There was a time when I posted daily. I have less time these days, but I really enjoy what time I do have to be here. I hope that all is well in your part of the world.

@MALUSE yes, Germany is where I spent many Christmas’s. It’s such a festive time there. I especially love my newest German tradition. My sister does too. I can’t wait to pull them out.

Thanks for the comment. I haven't seen much of you lately! Yes, all is well here and I hope the same with you. Three more months and you'll think of German Christmas traditions!

By now you may know I don't post very much. I tend to post "whenever". I'm not so concerned about "flocks" but it is nice to have a chance to chat with the starlings that come to visit .

I post when I get something in my mind. I don't post frequently as I lack ideas. I like interacting with the people on their posts, not on my posts.

@MALUSE No, I don't get it. Also, I don't get much of responses to my posts so I don't start a discussion here.

Doesn't reading so many posts give you ideas for your own posts?

@sjvg1976 After being on writing sites for many years, I can tell you that posts on food are usually quite successful. Posts like "What I had for breakfast" often get a lot of reads. Don't forget an appetising photo! You may think that food and eating habits are quite boring as everyone already knows such things. This, however, isn't the case. I haven't got the foggiest idea about the real Indian cuisine. But then, there are many different cuisines in a large country like India. I occasionally order food from an Indian restaurant in our town. But what I get is certainly not what Indians eat. It is food which is made for German taste buds. It only resembles Indian food. You can also write about typical Indian holidays and festivals or your town/city/landscape. Have you got a hobby/hobbies? Tell us about it/them. If you're a tech nerd, you can write about your computer or mobile phone. Problems in your family/job? A wide field which can make for many posts. Do you study/work? Are you still single or married, have you got children? And so on, and so forth.

I post once every day; and then occasionally another time with one of my "series". It either has to do with music or a food of some type. Good to see you. Have a wonderful day.

I’m surprised you didn’t write how you decide when to write a new myLot post. Do tell! I post when I just have something to write about. I try to respond to all the comments I got on my previous post before starting a new one but it doesn’t always happen. I do respond to all comments eventually though. I never write more then one a day though and unless I have a lot of spare time I only read one post that someone else writes each day not all of the ones they write in a day.

I'm retired and have a lot of spare time. I write a post when the fancy takes me (as I've mentioned in the title). I don't think that this is worth mentioning in the post.

Take it easy! MyLotting is a hobby, not an obligation. Post and read when you have the time and don't think of myLot when you're busy with other hings.

I don't post very often--but I try to react to other posts regularly--I think regular posting is needed though to reach the payout threshold every month.

I do not post often and it is never because I wait to have a certain number of likes or comments. I do not post, because I like to read what the others write and I enjoy interacting more than writing a post myself.

Good old starlings. What would the world be without a bunch of them? My other answer is that it depends.

I don't like people flocking to my posts. I would be happy with just a couple of meaningful and right content responses so that I can you know get my doubt clarified or get better suggestions. Answering mechanically to many people on same topic is not fun, because answers become almost the same, and that I find is a tad insulting. However, I do disturb people on others posts...many of my friends turn up on TheHorse's posts, so I get to interact with most of them by opening a single post.

I go through phases where I try to post every day or so, but then I find it is more time-consuming than I accounted for and I stop again. Often I post whenever I am putting off some other job! Sometimes I just have the urge to 'talk' about something.

I wonder how the starlings came up with that particular pattern. It's a cool photo. I post when I get a brilliant idea. Or when I eat something.

It would be so amazing to see birds flocking like that. I wonder if any ever collide. Because of the time difference, I mostly just post when I am able too.

I wonder the same thing about how do some get so many readers and responses? On average, I write (post) 2 or 3 whenever I come to myLot.
