Is it compulsory to give tags in each discussion?

Last Monday, I gave reply to six discussions without giving tags. But mylot paid only $0.01 to me. Then I got angry because I spent a long time in mylot for giving a relevant response. Is it because of skipping tags? I don't know giving tag is necessary or not. I expect your answer......

I put tags all the time, i guess it might be useful for us thats why they require us to fill it in.

I put tags in once in awhile, if I have a relevant one to add. It doesn't seem to affect what I earn.

Oops. I also have a tendency to respond to a response. Instead of respond to the OP :p

you will still earn without making a lot of tags, but you really need to make discussion for you to be able to post more, than looking for discussions your really like.

i think tags can be a personal choice so normally when you start a discussion can be useful put tags in this way people searching for related topics can retrieve your discussion as well..as regards responses i think they aren't so useful so you can skip the step easely..

Giving a tag to a discussion isnt necesaaire but it would help people that use the search function most of the time i give a tag to a discussion but you didnt get extra earnings and i you dont do it it also would get a reduse amounth, but i saw your rate was 3 and that can be higher mayby if you get a higher rate again you will get more earnings!

no friend it is not necessary to give tags, and hopefully ur account will be credited lately may be within 3 hours from now or something, cause they update whole day earnings only once per day...!

I tag once in awhile, as there are times that I can't come up with the right keywords to use, so then I just don't tag in those situations. It really isn't necessary, but it does help those that are searching for certain discussions, so find them easier. Your earnings aren't affected either way. If you don't post quality, you don't get much either, if anything at all, so keep that in mind as well. Good luck to you and happy mylotting.

What you earn today is the participation you did yesterday.
