Do you respond to your REFERRALS discussion?

I believe that most of us will have a complain that we dont make any earning through our referral because they are not active. Once in blue moon they may start a discussion. Only if they get response to that discussion, you will get referral earning. So what do you do? Do you respond to the discussion that your referral starts just for the sake of increasing your earning or do you see for quality to respond it. Well speaking frankly i do respond to my referrals discussion, if i have anything to say. If i dont find anything to comment then i dont respond to their discussion. Your comments!

If the refferals are guinine and not the spam then they are treated as independent users and you earn in normal fashion but if one has added some spam refferal s from same PC then it can be very well tracked it's true ness and the effect I think would be worst. The spam accounts are tracked as per the PC-id number and the catch word of the person who writes various articals. Other sites mention this in the beginning and ask you to avoid this type of miscief but I think mylot check your integrity through your behavior in a hidden way I think. All the best from oarnamav.

Before reading this discussion it never occured to me that by answering myreferrals discussions I can increase my earnings too . But I know I won't be able to answer each and every discussion of theires just for the sake of money . It would be more of an instantaneous decision afer reading the topic and the posrt rather than a conscious one .

Unfortunately those persons that i refer are still not active in myLot i hope they could find time to go here because once they do they will surely have fun responding to the different discussions here. I am very eager to do responses to their discussions if they do.

I would respond to my referral's discussion if they ever posted anything. I always try to respond to my friends' discussions because I want to help them increase their earnings, makes it easier for me to find things to respond to and it's overall a mutual relationship. I can basically say anything to anything. I wish I could get more referrals though.

That's our first priority friend. It gives more worth for our money earnings. It is better to start every day with referrals discussions and later friends discussions. Here also you should follow the rule as the friend who responds your discussions first will get the priority.

I do try to pay attention to my referrals and respond to their discussions. I do not force it if I have nothing to say on the subject, but I do try to check them all out to make sure I respond to them as much as possible. I figure that if I help my referrals make money they will be more likely to hang out on mylot and make me some referral income.

I am the same way. I have one referral and she is hardly ever on here. If she posts something that I can relate to I reply to it but if not I don't.

referrals, handshake, congratulations, gestures - referrals, handshake, congratulations, job, gestures
Agree. As long as you know what's being in the discussion of of either a separate user or your referral/s, why not share some knowledge not only useful to that user but to all mylotters who can view and read it. As much as possible, try rate his/her discussion so as to help him/her boost up reputation.

I would have surely loved to respond to my referral's discussions but none of my referrals are active. Out of the three 2 of them are my sisters so can't tell them anything.

Well, I don't have any referrals at this point but if I did I believe I would treat them as I would anyone else. If their discussion was something I could contribute to then I would respond but if they are posting discussions that I don't know anything about or I feel is not a quality discussion I wouldn't bother - I mean chances are the discussion will be deleted anyway.

Oh! I forget to tell that I have no many referrals in order to respond. I do have one and only to whom I try my best to respond and give him some positive rating too. Though I am least concerned with money, after all referrals are doing well by contributing to your 25 %, isn't it? Another thing is that if sometimes the discussion is not so good, we can encourage them by responding knowing the fact that I am the person who tempted him to come here and post. Not necessarily I would advise but I suggest that we must go for them. An active referral is better than couple of inactive ;) Good Luck

I also respond to my referral discussions only if it is worth responding and only if i have knowledge of the topic. If not then its better that i dont just for the sake of earning money. But, i always keep messaging them so that they are encouraged more to remain active here.

I do respond to any of the discussions that my referral started. I just feel that it is sort a form of encouragement to him even though he might not be active. Afterall, he is also a friend, and I respond to all my friends. I do pay special attention to my referral just because he is my referral.

I would not respond just for the sake of responding. I would respond if I have something to contribute to their discussion. Just because they are a referral doesn't make me feel obligated to respond to what they write.
