Not Too Much Action Here These Days

Is it my perception only or is it slow these days on Mylot? I was hoping that with the demise of BB and PP, things would move faster here and we could have more content to read and comment on. It is difficult to keep interest when the action is so slow. Do you feel that way too?

I think it's very quiet. When I started I couldn't imagine running out of new posts that I wanted to read but now it happens quite often.

@mysdianait We each have our ways of doing things. I don't go looking for old posts.

I thought there might be as well. But I guess there are some days, when some are busier than others and can't log on here. Perhaps this is just one of those days.

I think all the main commenters are on holiday or something. That said I see @mysdianait and @JolietJake are both active at the moment. Today there seems to be no Indian or Filipinos present.

It is night in both of those countries right now. I have been slow for the past week indeed and I might be back now - though I don't start many new discussions as the few that I have keep me more than busy

@mysdianait I know that, but I wasn't meaning because of the time of day, I was meaning that the Indians and Filipinos seem quiet for the last couple of days.

It does not seem slow to me. It did a little during the holidays, but it picked up again thereafter.

Yes, and I know I haven't been on that much. When I am on, I look down through the recent posts and don't find a lot that I want to comment on.

That happens to me too. I especially don't comment on those discussions about how much money they're making here.

I expected a greater influx of members after the demise of the other two sites, which started well but soon petered out. As for recently, OI cannot really comment on how busy it has been because I have spent less time online and the hotel wifi is seriously slow at times.

Plus the fact that you have to walk a lot more than usual before you can settle down and be online

I haven't seen a lot either, but hopefully, things will pick up in time, now that those form the sites that shut down deciide to come in here. We probably will be really jumping then, and we will be so busy, that we just won't be able to leave, and we will earn like crazy. I can only hope that it happens, as I love it here, and I don't mind being here either, but I do like to be kept busy, while here.

So often people say that, I've been trying to find stuff from previous years that prove it was faster in former years.

Sometimes, our life is too busy to spend too much time here. It is very understandable.

I have noticed that a lot of sites have been a bit slower the past few days. I think it is normal for online interest to wax and wane.

I'm not finding it slow, though I am only seeing a handful of people. However, I'm still up until 3 AM doing notifications.

3 decades ago I worked the 4 to midnight shift, I loved it @just4him then the boss decided she didn't want to pay the extra 5% and put us all on day shift.

@rebelann Back in 2016 I wasn't getting up to go to the pool and most likely needed to stay up to pick my son up from work late, so I lived the night owl life back then. All that changed when I moved, my son got his own vehicle, and I got a membership at the Y. I also worked 3rd shift for many years, so it was easy to stay up that late.

I joined only 3 days ago, thanks to @BelleStarr. I hail from Helium.com, Bubblews and PP. I really like this site. It's too early for me to comment much on the activity here, but I have noticed I had more earnings yesterday and the day before than I have had today.

But what's important is whether or not you've connected with friends and made new ones.

I was thinking of the same thing. Because I just went to the "Most Recent" section, and I keep seeing the same Topics over and over again. It seems like there's not many people on tonight. Maybe it is me, but, I think Mylot is getting slow these days.
