Is writing boosted through myLot?

Hello everybody. That's my first time at the "Writing" section. We are all actually paid to type. Do you think that the only reason some of us do this, is for the dollars? Does such a thing kills the spirit of writing? I have to admit it, I like writting but the cents make me write more than I used to. So what do you think? Is writting boosted through myLot, by the time everyone writes something, or is it ruined because it is done for the dollars? Is quality pushed aside because of the money award?

hi Valkerion----Mylot is an combination of both---there are some who enjoy writing one liners which implies that they're here to have fun so money would be their least preference.morever mylot isn't a great money making site---you need to work hours to make atmost $2 each day in here. There are others who start their mylotting---50 or 100 responses for each day and they close the site once they have reached their target. People from other countries where english isnt their native language would join here to furnish their writing skills.If you're good writer then Article writing sites would be correct for than this site.great day.

I know what you mean mate. They put quantity over quality which pretty much sucks. Anyway I am more with the "i just wanna chat" side of myLotters.

I come on here mainly to see what others have posted. If I have something to add to a conversation I will add to it. To me the money is secondary. I try to set goals so I can get paid but if I do not meet my goal then it's ok with me. I feel it is important to write on things of interest instead of just writing for money.

Yes that's my point. Quality over quantity

I think it really depends on the reason why you're on here. If all you are concerned about is the money aspect, yeah your writing is going to be hampered. but like with me, my writing spirit was killed in school because I was told what to write, how much to write and when to write. however with this forum, i can write whenever i'm inspired about whatever topic interests me at the moment. this has actually renewed my love for writing because i love putting my ideas out there for others to comment or not. i also love reading other people's posts because they can be hilarious.

Dollar is secondary. We are paid for typing . So our typing speed is increase. In participation in any discussion before typing anything we think on the topic. It increases our thinking power and speed. In participation we converse with the people it create a relation with the people it increases the friendship. We are paid and it is additional benefit.
