You know, there are lot of people that reply with short answers or they say only a word. Do you think they post only to make money? do you think people is really interested in discussions they comment?

hey friend, i think people do respond one liner, only to increase there number of posts, and may not be interested in discussion at all, well but as you are saying they want to make money only so they do that, so as far as i know, mylot dont pay such users who puts only one liner, morever they dont get any reputation here, so in all way its their loss actually, well best luck and happy earning!!

yes one line or few words can make increase the number of the post but the quality is poor so they earn few. Thank you very much! happy earning to you too!

Users here on mylot can be simply categorized to the following: * A slide that are looking for the money. * A slide that are looking for the friendships. * A slide that are looking for the friendships and the knowledge. * A slide that are looking for spending agood time. I guess I answered your question now!

You can usually tell by the quality of the post as to whether or not the person is interested in the discussion. When mylot was in it's earlier days, you would always see one worded answers and discussions like: "Let's count together, I'll start... 1". I'm so excited to say that mylot has made huge improvements and they no longer tolerate silly things like that. I think that the star rating that appears next to a persons name is brillant, it allows us to see this persons reputation and evaluate whether or not they are here for the right reasons.

I can only speak for myself, and say that yes, I am interested in the discussions I respond to. That is why sometimes I respond more than once in a discussion. It would be really boring otherwise.

yea, I like to respond discussion I'm interested. Whenever I'm not interested I don't write and I watch the next one. I like to come back into discussions I've replied to watch if there are news there.

Well, I really do see people who struggle to post due to English being another language for them. However, I have also seen people only answer with one word answers. I think those people either a) don't want to chat much or b) want to receive credit for their post. As I said if there is a language issue I think they are interested but they may not be able to say what they want to, non è vero amico? Perché mio italiano è terribile e non penso di parlare molto per una discuzione, non? I was saying that I don't think I could talk a discussion because my Italian is horrible. Then there are those that want to make many posts (with little quality) and make money. Pablo

I agree with you, lot of people have troubles with english so they write short lines. With few words it isn't a quality post so they got poor earinings. ehi, you speak italian well I can understand you!:) have a nice day!

That should be the case, really. Personally, i do not answer posts that i don't find appealing. It has to be something that interests me. And rarely do i answer in one sentence, and have never answered with only a word, not that i have anything against it, i am just a talker. Lol!

Some people are just there to make money but they will not gate anything by giving short answer like that. In one of my topic I create I asked people if they sleep with their cats. Some answer were like I don't have a cat or I don't like cat. Just don't answer if you are not going to talk of what is really in the topic. As for myself I only answer in topic that interested me.

yes they are really interested in answering discussions. like this discussion you have started, i'm interested to post in here because i want to speak out my opinion regarding people's interest in answering discussions.

I tend to be selective over which discussions I respond to. I don't really appreciate one word or one line responses, it seems the person isn't really that bothered. I also tend to look for discussions in my interests, where I can generally find topic for discussion that I can really get involved in

I want to hope that people is really interested in discussions.... if they responded only for making money it would be so sad.... money, money, money.... and our opinions? I think people are interested also because I think short answers give no money.

I think are interested only those women who spend every day of their life at home. I found a lot of not-working woman who write a lot and have made a lot of discussion. Other people in my opinion write only for the earn

yes, better to respond to interesting discussion because If someone doesn't have interest write only one line.
