Mylot is for All.but Many Come but few STAY...

Mylot DOES have only a few people from all over the world! There really aren't many people here. Don't let that figure at the bottom of the page mislead you. A look at the "new" discussions page right now will show why people leave. They can't read! They are only here to post links and promote sites - they don't want to follow the guidelines! Luckily there are some who stay and follow the rules. There are healthy numbers of Chinese here, as an example. As someone who is stuck in the middle of East and West - timezone wise, I see them all. They all come in batches - Chinese, Philippians, Indonesians, Indians, Europeans, Americans, etc. You can almost tell the time by who is online! If I had any complaint, it would be that many members post to their own community and not to the international audience. That is true of all nationalities!

I appreciate the diversity here, that is what makes mylot fun. Like you said, if we are all gather in groups, it would work too much like facebook and we can only to familiar friends. It would be much better to have input from people we don't know from time to time, that way we get a fresh view of things. "Many come but few stay..." Well, I like the stayers, and I like to hear from familiar friends too. We sort of "know" these online friends, their lives and habits, it would be good to comment on their topics too.

Yea I agree with that one. I myself am the one who does the "on/off mylot." I have to go to school and do other things like sometimes help my dad out that I do not log in much. Whenever I do have a chance I come to log in sometimes. Its just hard sometimes because when I work, I come home tired that I do not even turn on the computer. Now that I have just been focusing on school, I have been able to log in whenever I come home after finishing my homework.

Yes I know what you mean, I have referrals but it is hard to actually keep them active. I have had a couple who have stayed to 400 posts but then stop being active. I do not know why I became so addicted but can not find someone with my type of loyalty to mylot. That would make me lots. Even the person who referred me is no longer active here, what the heck I want him to log in and see how much money he has been making off me lately! I am interested to know!

dear LK, Good observation "many come, but few stays" And it's sad. They come and stays till they reach 500 and then they become inactive. Some survive for months before drifting away. Lately only few comes, I even feel it myself...seems the addiction become less have a good day dear brother

The only thing people come here is that this is a PAID site.. maybe because most of them thought that when they start joining mylot, they'll be earning ton of money... but it doesn't work like that, really. Well most of them got a little impatient so they left then some are on and off because they have a job or something that occupies their spare time to use the net and some stay because they have some free time to spare. I think that's about it? Umm... I believe I sounded a little confusing, but I'm actually trying my best to explain XD

Staying and quitting depends on likings and disliking. Some times in comparisons. In personalities. Don’t think even in your wildest dreams, simply because you are staying here for quite some time because you are endowed with super virtues which others lack. It suits you reasons best known to you. That’s why you stick. Or it may be that you are not fit to conform to any standards anywhere in the near vicinity. I for one joined My Lot 5 years ago. I found some sites that cater to my standards of language and content. In my view Blog writing warrants for special skills, where as what you are writing is a Discussion. One line too can make a discussion. Grammar? Don’t worry. Anything goes. This may be the reason for people to stick to some sites. And the same may be the reason for a Blog Buff to quit. With so many ‘Ifs’ and ‘Buts’, how can you judge others?[b][/b]

I think many people come here because it is a paid site, and they think they're actually going to get more. When they find out they're making a few dollars a month, they feel it's not worth their time. I know there are people making more than that, but you have to really be posting and good ones too. I like the idea of getting paid, but if they took it away, I would still come to mylot.

Honestly, I am not focusing on Mylot as the source of income because the quality of my participation is very poor. I just drop by to read some discussion that interest me and to greet and drop by to my friends discussions just like this one. However, I am not the type who leave Mylot when I am just starting. I believe during the time I was a newbie I was very active in this site. It took me a whole year to receive my first payment. What made me comeback are the discussions that interests me and my friends who are still there. and sometimes I became active when I see my earnings and I just need a few dollar to have minimum payment again. Mylot have been there through low times and those people who participated on my discussions about my problems, had really helped me to see the light and to realized that life is like a wheel, sometimes you are up, sometimes you are down, but life doesn't stop for you because you have a big problems. I think Mylot is the way of life too.

Yes, i agreed that Mylot is for all. It is good to see that through this site, we are able to interact with members from around the world. As for me, i am on and off in Mylot. Since i have a very busy schedule offline, i am only able to bounce back into Mylot, only when i am free.

Yes. There are many here you can talk to, and there are good benefits to talking here. You make new friends. You learn alot of things about news, life, relationships, religion, other countries, work, earning on the internet, just all kinds of neat things that you don't learn on other sites. There is this one forum that I have been to 3 times in the year since I joined. The first time, I went there to try and pick up some pointers kinda like I do here where I learn alot.That forum is unbelievable. You can go on there and ask a question, and you never ever get an answer because someone will come up and say something triply xxx rated to someone else and that gets it started, and they will do 3 pages of that cussin and stuff and you never get an answer to any question. It is crazy. I actually went back my 3rd time a few weeks ago and tried to get an answer to a question. NOT!!!!!!!

I have called some people to this site, but, after a few posts they were gone. I think that they were too busy elsewhere or not very interested in the site. As for me, I'm surprised that I've been here for a year and several months now. The norm for me is to like a site for a while and then the excitement wears off after a few weeks. With MyLot, sure there are days that I don't feel like posting in here, or days that I'm too busy, but, I do come back and post. Sometimes I just read other people's post because I get a glimpse of how they're doing nowadays. I love that I get paid for participating, but, that is just icing to the cake. I love the conversations here and I think I'll be here for quite a while.

I also came here for the fact that it is paid site.I spend some time on this site and now i got addicted to it and its discussion section.Yes this is most interesting section for me on this site.Now i dont know about my earnings but i am enjoying taking part in discussions.So everyone has their own interests and not everyone would like stop here.So what?We are doing our own things which makes us happy then why should we worry about how many and which peoples are joining and how many are leaving the site.

I agree with you ,that not all people will for my lot..And some just to visit,some just enjoy,some for money,some discourage,and some because low pay.. many reasons but we can't force them to be stay in here.And i am also blessed to be here because this site helps me a lot, improves my skills, my English etc...

Many claim to need money also but they do not stay at Mylot. Some spend alot of time on Facebook instead and they don't pay!

i have noticed the same thing over the almost 4 years that i have been here. i have stuck with mylot for that long and have enjoyed it since i started.

I dont feel the same at this moment, there were times we were on a roll having a blast but I'm sorta frustrated because there are stuff I want to talk about now but it wont be satisfactory cos things I'm into nowadays are not what tickles the pickle of the mylot masses. there are good days and bad days for sure. today is one of the bad days. I'm sure some lurkers people who are not registered yet in mylot could be reading this: Music critics please register in mylot Fighting game fans register now! Anime fans register now! Marvel comic fans register now! Survivor fans lets talk about the latest person voted off! register in mylot now! Wrestling fansLets talk about the results of Night of champions and look forward for the paper view hell in a cell. enthusiasts of new technology , what are you waiting for? register in mylot.

Hello LK, Thats true lots of people join MYLOT every day but there are few who continues to be active here but then this is their choice may be they don't find MYLOT to be that good or may be they are too much involved in their offline works that they don't get time to do MYLOTTING.I also find it difficult these days to be active here due to busy schedules but then i always find time to log in to MYLOT at least once in a day. LK i always behave properly and never use fowl language as i can imagine that it hurts deep when someone uses it against you.This is social site and we people should behave as a mature people.

It is disappointing not to have active referrals. I have one referral, but have no idea where he came from -- maybe twitter. He has done nothing yet that I know of. The real life friends I've tried to recruit would not really be in it for the money because, let's face it, you don't really earn much money. On my best days, the I've never made more than a dollar, and the average is about half that. I stay because I enjoy the conversations. I thought these friends, who never go out, might also enjoy this kind of activity, especailly the one who is mostly shut in. She said it sounded up her alley, but then she decided to wait before joining. As you say, you can't make people jump into new things they aren't motivated to do themselves. I think some of us just have more outgoing personalities and we are the same people who might get into conversations with strangers in other places, too, like conventions or parties. Others may come here because they can be totally themselves in conversations and don't have to interact in person, dress up, etc, to talk to people. Just as I can work in my PJ's on my computer, so can I talk to friends at myLot in my PJ's. I think I may have an idea on how to get good referrals who will be active, but it will take more time to try it.

hi! yes, a lot of people has left mylot that's why i have been wondering where have all the 200,000+ members go? i have been seeing the same people in discussions so i was thinking that they are the only people here in mylot. well true it might be that other people has other stuffs to do but they can always drop by mylot and participate in some of the discussions here but yes again we cannot force them. i am a member here for a week and i am truly enjoying mylot. someday if i have my work i would drop by here i could always have time for everything we just have to manage things with our time.
