myLot seems to be on Fast Forward mode at this time of the month

Hi Jureathome, that is usually the case. When you have earned nine dollars, and just a dollar from payout, you will definitely work harder. It is perfectly annoying to see that you miss payout by one cent, and you have to wait for another month to see your money. Even if you reach payout for this month, you will only see the money in paypal in the middle of next month.

Even i also have noticed it that people are more active here in last days of the month.Of course they try to reach minimum payout in these days.But i don't do so i do work from the starting so that i may be able to reach it easily and don't have to work hard later on.

Yes, jureathome, Mylot is "work" as well as fun socialization and I too am trying to reach my minimum payout for the month, but that isn't the only reason I'm here. I love interacting with others, discussing a variety of topics, meeting new people (in a safe environment). It is the "safe" socializing that is appealing to me, and the end of the month is when I can be most social. Being here is like a short visit with your relatives and extended family, you can enjoy visiting with them but the door is always open so you can make a quick escape if necessary. I love the end of the month on Mylot...gotta go post away!

When we get to a new month I hope youwill notice a difference in the topics, and their quality, at the beginning of the month. MyLot slwos down then but there is a much better opportunity to get involved in the discussions because it is then that those Lotters who enjoy discussing are here. I am here all through the month on and off most days and if I start a topic, it always happens in the first half of the month. I then have the rest of the month to just wander about, catching up with comments onmy own topics and responding on tose started by others. This is the third month that I reach payout before the 20th therefore I can be certain that the tips that I dish out to the newer users are tried and tested. It seems that you have put them into practice and understood what "discussing" involves. Well done and it is refreshing to see a new user almost at payout within a month of joining!

First month and already make that much post? Wew. I have been here for more then 2 years by now. Just couple post a day, sometime not even a single post. Got a lot thing to do, sometime it make me forget about Mylot.

It stands to reason that activity would pick up when people are trying to make payout for the end of the month. I've noticed there has been a lot going on here the past few days. As for me, I'm in no rush. I've been on mylot one whole week and have all of $2 in my account so no chance for payout for me, lol. Seriously though, I like coming here just to take part in some of the discussions that interest me, make friends and see what issues others are facing. I probably do more reading on here right now than I do posting, but that's ok. I guess it all depends on why you're here and what you get out of it. In any case, I'm loving the end of the month, not because I'm looking forward to any payout but because I am enjoying all the activity.

ah yeah, i do agree with you. everyone in mylot seems to be busy, and everyone seems to be wanting to earn more and have a pay out sooner than they expect. =)

Yes, you are correct. Many people are trying to reach payoff. I know I won't make it because I have been absent for awhile, but do still check in every now and then. As for this feeling like work, sorta...but I do have to say it is fun work! Good luck to you!

hijureathome yes we do put on a push but too you cannot say allof us wait til the last minute as thats not always the case. In my self defense I generally work all month to make twice the minimum but I have suffered insomnia the last four weeks and thus slept in in the mornings when ordinarily I would be typing my fingers off to keep up all month so got behind for me.I doubt if I will make my 25 this month bu t am giving this the old college try.

hi jureathome! well, its that time of the month again when everyone is trying to reach payout so everyone is doubling their efforts in starting discussions and replying to existing ones. i wouldn't say it as cramming but perhaps mylotters have a better sense of urgency when month's end is around because of they want to reach their minimum payout limit. lol at mylotting being work! i guess if you stay at mylot for a good amount of the day every single day of the week then for sure you'll feel like mylotting is similar to work! cheers and happy mylotting my friend!

Well, I am trying to reach out the payout too. I hope I can make it this May so by June I can have it in my paypal account.Once it is already a start of another school year, I will be very busy again and I cannot find much time to join mylot. That is why I am doing my best to have fast earnings as much as I can.

Right on the money. I guess literally. I actually don't mean to be more active at the end of the month like everybody else, but like you I see lots of discussions happening and I try to keep up with them all. But when mylot starts to feel like work to me, I tend to log off. I really don't get paid enough to type up responses and not have fun doing it!

I must admit that I myself is included in those myLotter crammers! Well, I am having a hard time trying to reach the payout since I have been busy with work, however, I only found the time to stay in here and post out long enough just this weekend. My other weekends were also gobbled up by work. So that's why I have been active in here lately. But yes, it is a running trend that people usually become more active during these times. But really, I don't see this phenomenon as work after all.

I just started with myLot as well. I have seen a lot of new posts on the homepage. While I only have a few interests right now, myLot does seem to be pretty busy right now. Of course I am still new and still learning the system, though I think I have most of it down. I'ts not hard to use. The good thing about high activity is there will probably be more posts that you can relate and it will be easy for you to post comments about them.
