How do you decide which forum to respond

I have email notifications wheneever my friends post a new discussion. I check my email and see if there is something there that i would like to respond to. I also check the new discussions from time to time. But mostly I will answer my friends discussions. Like yours

I usually look for newer or recently active conversations because I like to get a point across, get my say, but also hear from others and respond to them. I will go to my interests, the new discussions, and my friends' discussions every time I am on myLot. I will answer only the discussions I am comfortable in being a part of.

Many times it is just based on mood, and many times I respond because I have information that might prove helpful. During weeks like this when I am in a classroom all day and my online time at home is limited, I respond to friend's posts first. Don't you feel special?

Well, I do my best to respond to all of my friend's discussions but afraid lately my heart hasn't been in it and I've been busy working on writing assignments. My friends have been keeping me pretty busy lately :)

i usually respond to topics that interests me or those topics which i believe i have something worthy to say.
