Do you want more Responses to your Discussions?

If your answer is yes, and you are into reasonable topics of discussion, then please apply for me to be your friend. Why? Because I can guaranteee that I will respond to at least 50% of your discussions. I have 99 friends on my list, and I am wiping many of them out, starting now. I do not see the point of having a friend, who never responds to any discussions. If they never respond, then I assume that there is nothing I say that interest them. The friends I have, who do initiate discussions, find that I reply to most. Maybe my responses are not always best responses, but if there is anything I can say, I will say it. If I am unavailable on the occassional day, I save the notifications & respond as soon as possible. BY the way, as I am in the southern hemisphere, I may not receive notification of your response imediately, nor can I respond straight away. All my friends have the notification ON. So, what about it? Apply for me to be your friend, and start receiving responses soon. I do expect that you will respond to a few of mine, occasionally. Thank you for considering my offer.

I am new to mylot and would like to be your friend. I am still learning the etiquitte here and what is expected and is polite to do. I have been trying to respond to my friends' discussions, too, because I think it is important to have a group that will support you and you will support. Nice to meet you!

Well, you may have already wipped me out as a friend :( I'm afraid my time on myLot is up and down and always will be. I write for a living so when I have assignments to work on I can not be on mylot as much plus the time I am I don't always feel like taxing my brain alot. When I don't have a writing assignment I put all my effort into myLot and do my very best to respond to 100% of my friends discussions plus more. Right now - have an article to do ASAP so am off to finish that before I play on myLot :)

No way. I haven't wiped you out as a friend. It;s really only the people who never reply. Good Luck.

I hope you don't get rid of me. I know I haven't been a good friend to most on my list. I've lost my enthusiasm and my heart is just not into it anymore. I reply to maybe 5 posts a day but I am here for a long time. I'm kinda afraid to post anything lately. I hope this period of doubt ends soon and I can get back into posting. You have always been a good friend to me and I am sorry.

No Way. You are still definitely my friend. It's only those who never respond that I am deleting. I must admit I wondered why I hadn't seen any posts from you for awhile?

Spring cleaning at Mylot I see. I know we are good and I don't see you as often as I would like, however, I do appreciate being friends here. I wish you luck with your 'new' friends and that they surprise you in very many good ways. Take care and have fun!!

Do you mean I don't post enough discussions? I try to, but I figured people would get annoyed if I over do it.

You are a very good mylot friend, jennybianca. You always give thoughtful responses and I think it's cool to have a mylot friend on the other side of the planet from me! You're always on top of all your friend's discussions :)

Good for you on updating your friend's list. I had over 250 friends on my friend's list last week and I have been trying to delete members that are no longer coming to myLot or people that have not responded to my discussions, it is a very tedious process (especially since the amount of people on my friend's list, but a well needed task since I use my friend's list so much to respond to discussions. But I did want to say "thank you" for being so bold as to your treatment of being a friend to many on myLot we all wish we had more friends like you.

Sounds like a very good offer jenny, I can't turn that down.To tell you frankly I didn't just drop by to have you on my friends' list or make you respond to my discussions, I like your discussions and have been meaning to add you since long, but never got to doing it (oh well!) I've sent you a request, hope to see you on my list, I will go through your discussions, I too will respond when I have something of substance to say:) Thanks!

Yeah, I agree that there is no point of having friends who never respond to any discussions. I do have such friends that have never reply any of my discussions at all. What to do with them??? Hope that I’ll receive your responses very soon, my friend LOL. Normally I’ll respond to people who had answered my discussions unless his/her topic is beyond my capability to reply.

your discussion held such a pretty good theme that I have just rated you buddy...moreover, it is an untold fact of mylot that everyone, so does I, love to be replied a lot on our discussions....there is a reason for it.... when people respond to u, you get many feelings---that they trust you, they have faith in you, and you were able to grab their attention....riiiiiiiiighht!!! well if even I get a single respponse, I am so glad to see that atleast one guy has visited me,.... and i was able to grab his attention

It is a good feeling to be noticed both online and in the ouside "real" world. I am very much interested in what other people have to say about my topics and when they respond to what I have posted on their discussion.

I feel its just making as many friends as possible and responding to many of the discussion is the best thing to increase your income here in mylot. To have many friends is obviously the best thing to respond to many discussions.

I'd be grateful if you kept me on your friends list. I'm on mylot almost every day and always take a look at my friend's discussions. Also, you're from Australia so I enjoy reading your posts as I can often relate to them!

Well, I have started a lot of discussions personally so if you really want to be my Friend, I have added you and sent you a Reply to be my friend. I do take time to respond back to others who respond to me, as I feel it is fair to give them the time of day when they are nice enough to respond to me. And that is thoughtful of you offering to read and respond to people's discussions that they have started in here.

definitely all people working out here and putting valuable time indeed want their discussions to be replied, and definitely i am not different, i am facing similar problem, my most of friends are inactive or dont even care to respond to my discussions, its really strange, generally i love to respond to my friends discussions which i find suitable for me, so it will be great to have you as a friend, thanks

You seems to have some very interesting threads there, jenny. I had shoot my request as a friend to you already. My own list of friends can testify to how supportive I am. I also comment back on all the responses and rated each one mostly positive. I hope to expect the same from you. No need to respond to all my threads. Just the one that interest you. Happy posting.
