Am I crazy or would this work?

I have an idea that I need some input on.... Lets say you post a question, and that question receives 50 responses, well you just made 0ne dollar. I realize that 50 responses is a hard thing to get.....but, if we worked together I don't think it would be that difficult. If a few of you would go to my profile and request to be my friend and I were to accept then I would constantly be updated to what you posted as you would be of mine. In turn we would respond to the others posts and then proceed to respond to each individual friends posts and so on until we had done 50 responses for that day. (the beauty of it is, they can be simple responses, nothing to in depth) Of course this would only work if we all knew who the other friends were. I don't see how this could miss. Message me and message your friends and lets compile a list of 50 and see if it works...If I'm crazy, let me know.

This has potential. I'll add you as a friend but remember first and foremost it is a social networking site and we should not post just for the sake of posting. If our interest do match then we can really make this work. can you tell me your hobbies?

I agree that no one should post just for the sake of posting, BUT, I believe that the monetary value of the site is something that we all signed up for even if it was just for curiosity. That being said, my hobbies for My Lot are, Writer, Work, Thinker, Movies Books, Love, Travel, Me. I hope that was what you were looking for and not my actual hobbies because I'd hate to sit here and tell you that I love comics, collect old toys, read lots of Non-fiction and watch tons of movies, if I told you that stuff it just wouldn't make me look cool, even though I am...

Lets say you post a question, and that question receives 50 responses, well you just made 0ne dollar. This statement suggests you know how much MyLot pays? No-one knows and MyLot make a point of asking users not to try and work out how much we are paid for posting discussions and responses. When users are new it is advisable to make friends but not as you suggest. You can make friends by responding to discussions that interest you then you willbe sute that the discussions your friends will be creating will be to your liking and therefore more easy to respond to. When reponding to be sure to earn well donot do one libe rsponses. Ususally four or five well thought reponses would earn you more. A tip: once you start forgetting about earning and start joining in the fun your earnings increase Happy posting!

What is boring to one is the spice of life to another because we are all different. I wonder if you have allready explored all the interests available here. I doubt it because there are soooo many! Mine were only suggestions because as a 'veteran' user I have had more opportunity to see how it works. Rather than a team MyLot is a big family. Everyone joins in with everyone. Just give it time. Good luck and happyposting!

I will never understand the negativity that is reflected in some people. It may not work, I will agree to this, But why not give it a shot? Yes I like to post and join in to discussions just as much as the next guy, I am in no way here for the money. But have you read the average post? Usually it is there simply to increase the users points. I mean usually someone asks a question that is basic and boring. Why not try something a little different?

Welcome to my lot. You seem new here. Having a lot of friends is a big plus here but remember that no one has ever figured out how payments are distributed on mylot. So users here can make rough guesses how its best to earn more money. I only post in threads that they attract my attention. It useless to post a one liner just to say that you have posted without having anything interesting to say.

Don't you see, the interesting thing is the experiment itself, we would be a community within the My Lot community. That is actually what it's all about.......Plus, I think it might actually work.

well it would be a great thing if it works , getting 50 Plus response is not a joke and if we could help each other to earn there is no harm in doing it !! mylot is a rocking sight and everyone loves it So if we can earn 1-2 $ a day then it would possibly the best site were i will be spending thwe whole day without buzzing. I don't get much reply for my posts and if by helping each other if we could get the replies we will earn more..

hm, hard to say if it will work exactly the way talker96 described it - obviously it will not. But the idea is interesting. It could be given a chance. I will add you to my friends for this. -)

I have been thinking about this endeavor, but I finally came up with a question that...'How on earth we organize these 50 friends' into a group? some people have hundreds of friends, and it is impossible to find the 'right ones' in the long list of other members.

talker its not thatr simple I often post fifty and always make more than just one dollar but I post where i want to and to whom I want to, and thats much better in my way of thinking. You can not outscheme mylot they have their own way of figureing out our earnings and ask that we not screw aroung trying to figure out whatit is. also simple one or two line posts earn you p ractically nothing. it has to be five or six well thought out resp;onses and quality rather than quantity is what counts. so your earnings on those fity will vary wildly. and I do not want to be locked into where and whom I resond to at alll.

I am a bit skeptical of your idea. Just because you have a lot of friends on your list, it does not insure that each and every one of them is going to respond to every discussion you start. Nor are your going to want to respond to every one of the theirs. It just doesn't work that way. I am not being negative about your idea, I am just being realistic.

talker96 Yes,i hv considered u as a my best freind & v will work together.so there will be broad team work.if i m crazy for getting more & more money Then i will not see any of the status of work whether it's difficult or easy.i think,every person should get hard & honest work,sothat they can achieve thier own goal. i m so crazy with stock market.sothat i m gaining from it more & more from last 10 yrs.i didn't found any trouble form it whether mkt go up/down.only consentration & awarness of news flows & craze for the same thanks anil

i don't think you are crazy... there is a possibility that you can do that if we work together... i have a good definition for TEAM = Together Everybody Achieve More... i get this from my church pastor when he is explaining about fellowship of the children of God... so you can try it out and i will be on your list if you want to... take care and have a nice day...

I think that's a great idea. I hope we don't violate any guidelines though. Please let me know if that works.

Hello, you can add me as a friend if you want. I'll check your discussions xD, but since I don't start that much discussions myself, I really don't mind about people responding to mine. But the more friends you have the better so yeah, add me =). Anyways, I think that what your trying to do is a pretty good idea, I myself won't try it because I am lazy xD. I just log here in mylot and check if there's something interesting to post on but else, I just log off and do something else. So yeah, maybe you should try it and pm me later how it goes and I'd then get a bit more motivated! =D.
