I have gone across many discussions and posts here on myLot and have come to the conclusion that many user dont post their original thoughts. They either copy-paste it from some where or simply read and write it. A lot of images look like to have been saved from a website and then uploaded here along with discussions.
Do you post your original stuff? Well, I do!

I also read about things I am not familiar with, and then make up my mind to respond to a particular discussion. Else, I rely simply on my mind for posting rather than other websites to copy from. If I find some content worthy of sharing with others, i do give the link with my post!

if I post from other source , I give full
credit to the source . I do not copy from
other sites just to get some money here .
Generally I quote from wikipedia , whenever
required . I do give the main source link.
I am also a small contributor for wikipedia .
And I knew that copying from other sites
including wikipedia , dictionary , etc
is not allowed on Mylot .
pls see the related discussions started

I sometimes come up with an idea for a discussion just from reading and posting in other discussions. I get some of my ideas from reading the online news, but sometimes someone will beat me to the breaking news and post a discussion before I can.

i post original thoughts. my spelling and lack of capitalization should give me away as an original writer. i've a balky browser to explain the caps and a bad case of 'can't spell' to explain the former. i post urls to accent posts or send people to info that would help them.
