I joined mylot to keep me busy while surfing the net. I was just browsing a forum from another site and mylot came out to be a site you could join for free, (aren't they all?). It sounded interesting specially with the part of getting paid to join discussions. I started posting like crazy and responding to discussions with the first thought that would pop in my head but Mylot starts to grow on you as time passes by. There are a lot of discussions with POV's of real people who would share part of experiences and it makes you want to respond and share part of this. It only scares me that some os the content is really just a part.

I belong to a non-paying forum and have done so for a couple of years, one of the other posters asked if I would join Mylot as a referral for him so I did to help him out but I never thought I would become so addicted, I love it in here.

Well, I agree. You can get attached to a forum specialy if it involves your interest. This one of the first forums I stuck with. I guess that I'm not that good in refferals. 8-)

It interests me of the different POV people have. The topics they choose to discuss and the responses on how they feel in that certain point of time. Somehow the little things matters more than I thought it would. I hope you could find more discussions to your interest. 8-)

I loved writing, wanted to get paid for it, and I wanted to write at a site which had no restrictions on what to write. I love discussing things, like learning better ways to do things, love posting, and do not have to worry that someone knows the address of my house, phone number, etc. So I can discuss things on myLot that I cannot do with my offline friends.
After a while, you cannot leave myLot and there are so many interests, that you do not have to worry about what to write.

I agree. It is purely conversing with other people with the same intrest. This really can bring people together in a certain way. There are lot of things people are capable of. Maybe, that is one of the reasons we discuss this type of things to other people here than to offline friends. We only want to talk in certain and really a certain topic only and nothing else without considering who we are but who we are in general. I even cannot start to understand myself right now. 8-)

Before I joined here in mylot I was surfing the net for an extra income. I tried it here. First, I want to quit because my aim for money is not met because the payment is too little, you really need to work hard to earn. But later, I enjoy it here. The discussions and sharing of thoughts with other mylot members is fun. While I am enjoying posting me earning grows. I am happy and at the same time earning even if it is just little. Mylot somehow help me break my boredom and stress.

Maybe making a good converation is just focusing on the topic. Then again, we each have individual reactions and opinions. Conversations like this can be enjoyed when there are similar grounds to share experiences with a wide variety of people. Have more fun ... 8-)

I do it a lot while downloading muzic and while surfing the net at the same time. It really kills time at the same time. I have found a lot about different websites that you could spend an hour googling around.
One thing I wanted to do is to add a flying carpet underneath your avatar. 8-)

I was told there were some earn through discussions in the internet and found myLot.
But you know what after getting involved in many discussions and posting some of my own queries. It was really fun.
Unlike in other sites where discussions are exclusive to your friends, here as long as you have the same interests and some thoughts about the topic, you are free to join.
I especially like topics on life, about personal issues.
thanks for adding me as a friend.

That is no problem at all. I know that it is hard to make froends at once. So it always start with a conversation. That mylot is unique is some kind of way. The only thing is that interesting old discussions gets covered up with a lot of new ones every minute. It is up to you to look for it.I am glad you get to enjoy it too. 8-)

You should take your time in the discussions. There is no rush. Look for one with your interests and you'll have problem at all with good discussions. I like it too that you can learn a thing or two in here.

I'm really interested in people, that's why I'm here. I enjoy reading what people say in discussions. I sometimes post my own opinions. Its fun. I don't mind earning those cents too, they're too small though to be considered as source for my monthly expenses. But I really do thank those people from whose posts I've learned. Much more valuable than the cents :)

I know. I benifit with some of the discussions. I'm not much of a tech guy so one time I asked around then boom. I got a site to download a correction to one of my programs. I feel a bit guilty because it feels like snooping sometimes. 8-)
