i have been coming up here more often lately and i have noticed that mylot is getting more and more new members each day, it may just seem like this because i am up here more than what i use to be. so for those of you who have been up here for a while, what suggestions or tips do you have for the new members? any and all suggestions are welcomed. i have been up here for a couple of years now and i would like to know at what point can i start using the smilies? i see a lot of users using them but i can't find them anywhere. thanks.

Hello there, well for me I have been on and off here too and it was because I don't have enough time now to do come and visit Mylot. About your question, I am sure that a lot of Mylot users have answered your query so I leave it up to them. Tips?? on what, earning more here? it is simply up to you, it will depend on the amount of time you will spend here, the quality of discussions you put up and the number of answers you replied in good quality too pertaining to the standards of Mylot which will only count those that will not prohibit their rules. Additionals would be earning from every approved tasks and getting more friends who would join under you as a referral and if they participate here well, you can get an extra amount to that. Just be happy with helping other Mylotters here and if that is your goal, then I am sure you won't be minding the pay. Happy Mylotting.

Well, welcome to myLot,shontia, I think after you reach a certain number of points, they let you use the smilies,I don't know if it's 500 or 1000 points! You're right it's gets many new members every day, it's really overwhelming! Well, the worst misconception, of a lot of new members is, is the idea they are going to make a lot of money, and I can tell you, it's not gonna go there! But if you enjoy communicating with people on a pletora of interests, you are going to find a rewarding experience on here! Especially if you like to discuss, or ask for opinions or advice! I myself have made several friends on here that I like communicating with, and that is very rewarding!

I am not sure any more when you can start using them. I have been here for three years....when I started there were 93,000 members...so look at how mylot has grown! My suggestion would be that it takes being a friend to have friends.....just because you have a friend and they answer all your discussions you still need to answer theirs too!

thanks for responding. i have decided to give your response the " best response " because what you have said is true, basically what the other members here has posted is true, but what you said has hit home. i realized, even though i should have realized this sooner, that i need to start responding to the discussions that my friends has started more often. thanks for posting this because this is something that the new users should keep in mind as well. have a nice day.

A lot of new mylotters, will start posting without reading the TOS first, and therefore they will post links in the discussion, which is a violation, and the disucsson is deleted, and any responses received are deleted as well. I do help them though, knowing full well, I will lose earnings as well. I figure that I was new at one time, and needed help, so I might as well help those just starting out, so they know what they can and can't do in here. I am sure thay they appreciaate all the help they can get too, and I am not worried one bit aout losing earnings, as I am that way. I like to help people, even though I hurt myself in the process. Good luck to you adn happy mylotting.

Welcome to mylot lijuanchen. My tips for you to succeed here is to make your presence felt. How? Response to as many discussions as you can and at the same instance request for friendship. Once you have gain your confidence and have good number of friends then you can probably post your discussions. You can start discussions now if you so wish.
