myLot doesn't update our ages in our profile

Hey myLotter friends, I've joined myLot in October but started myLotting since December 2009 as it was not clear to how to earn from here. By this time, I've noticed that myLot doesn't update our ages in our profile. They are displayed as they were input during the sign in process. Suppose you've joined myLot 2 years ago at the age of 30 and even after 2 years have passed your age is still 30! Is is possible? Is it reasonable? As a result, we can't exactly know about each other's age. I think our age information in our profiles should be updated so that we are not mistaken. Please, share your opinion at ease. May Allah bless you.

Mine has been updated twice. I joined here in May 2008 and, since my birthday is in April (it just passed), my age on my profile was updated in April 2009 and again this month. It updated on my birthday, too, not a few days late or early. MyLot has had quite a few glitches in it's programming since I've been a member and, perhaps, your age not updating is just another glitch. You should write to myLot and tell them about this.

Hi, I haven´t checked my age but I don´t care that much either. The last time I remember I wanted to get older was about 50 years ago. I am not interested in hiding my age either but a few days, weeks, months or years more or less mean nothing. Take care!

Hey ma'am, I also don't like to hide my age. I'm not afraid of getting old. Have a great day.

Hi farid, Actually some people are complaining that they are getting old prematurely and Alice (from admin) promised that they will correct the problem. In your case it must be a glitch so nothing to worry. If you want you can write the same to administration, but do you really want to get aged. In my case before the day my of birth day (when the month starts), they changed my age.

I think you misunderstood me. I have said about the complaints of some members, as their profile showing the next figure before their birthday. Here I have not said anything personal thing about age. I am not hiding my age and if you come in India and see me personally you will surprise to see that I looks younger than my age. So there is no question of uneasiness if I meet you personally.

Hey Sreekala, I started this discussion out of curiosity to see if there is any problem in this concern or not. But I'm surprised that you're afraid of getting old which is natural process whether you want or not. We should accept it easily. How can you resist that. If you're hiding your real age, you're cheating yourself. Suppose, I planned to visit India for a long time. And I contacted you on myLot as to how I'll be able to find you in India. if then I see that you're older than your age mentioned on myLot, would you feel easy before my eyes. Have a nice day.

Hey Jenin, Thank you very for your participation. I'm not asking you to check your profile right now. You can do that after your birth date as mentioned on myLot. Thank you very much again. Have a nice day.

If mylot didn't update my age, I would update it myself, even though I am a grandmother and getting older by the minute. It is good though that they update it for us, so we don't have to do it ourselves. I think mylot is the best and I am glad that I am a part of it. Good luck to you and happy mylotting.

In fact, I don't know if they update our age or not. I should have start my discussion as 'Does myLot update our age in our profile?' By the way, thanks a lot for your response. Have a nice day.

Hey Cutie, If you want to stay young at heart, you don't have to feign that you're young by hiding your real age. It's a matter of your mentality. If you look old outside but you're young inside people who will come in contact with you, will definitely know that and be attracted to you. Have a youthful day.

You have no idea how young at heart i really am, BB. I told you before i don't age. Age is just a number, but this is the number i love.

I think, it does! My years here have been updated quite reasonably and regularly. I am sorry to know that yours have not. You should write to the admin and ask them to fix the glitch at your page.

Hey friend, Perhaps myLot update our age. I made a mistake. My discussion should have entitled, 'Does myLot update our age information?' Anyway, thanks a lot for you participation. Have a nice day.

Hi faridmadeabillion, [can you explain how you have made a billion]? I have noticed that too. I guess that I like this my lot bug since I always think that I am younger than my real age. I just don't mind about what the mylot's friends real age is. I prefer to evaluate what do they have to say.

Hey friend, My name is Farid Ahmed, a poor guy. I've not yet made a billion but I wish to. I've chosen myLot username as 'faridmadeabillion' because I have a plan that if I can earn a billion dollars, I'll establish a multi-sectional departmental store in my country where all kinds of essential goods will be sold at prices lower than the market. I want fulfill this dream of mine to help the poor and the helpless. Please pray for me to Allah so that I can succeed. I really appreciate the comments of myLot friends. Have a lovely day.

faridmadeabillion oh wish I really had made a billion.he he. for me its just the opposite. they make me a year older than I am. I will be 84 on Nov.15 of this year but now in my eyes I am s till 83 but not in mylots eyes.odd. what I hate is so many people asking me,are you really 83? why would one lie about that? I am that old yes, and no I am not loony tunes or senile either. I am intelligent, computer savvy and have been using my computer for years and so w what.farid I do think they should make our ages right so we can all know whom we are talking to here. I really cort of love the f act that I have friends of all ages as I do hate to turn down people.

Hey friend, I'm really appreciating your valuable comments. Some people pretend to be younger than they look. There's no profit lying about ages. I hate to deceive people. We should be honest and truthful. The true youth is the youth of mind, not body. Thank you very much for your true information about your age. Have a great day.

Hey friend, Thank you again for replying back. In fact, my discussion should have been 'Does myLot update our age?' Anyway, as I've mentioned my birth certificate age as 2 October 1975 on myLot, I've been waiting to see if they update my age or not on the same day in 2010. Have a nice day.

Well my friend, mylot has thousands of members and many more are joining every year. they have given us a preference whether we want our age or country or city to be shown in the profile or not. Many members don`t want their age mentioned in their profile and so it is not shown. coming back to your question it would bean arduus task for the admin to keep on updating each and every members age year by year and this is not done in many other sites. I feel it is not at all neccessary for our ages to be updated since we are all aware of our own ages, nobody will actually be bothered about it.

I joined in April of 2009 when I was 52 and when I turned 53 in November Mylot updated my age. I don't understand why some would be done and others wouldn't.

Hey dear, That's not a wise way of keeping people young forever. The best thing is to provide true information. Have a nice day.
