How many posts did you guys make when you first joined? And are you making substantially more now or then? Has boredom or fatigue started to hover? I find it strange that people with way more posts that me are making less.Do referrals make that much of a difference?I also find it ridiculous that discussions such as "Which country are you from?" or "Do you like fast food?" generate more responses than the more intelligent well planned ones.Im gonna start coming up with dumb topics as well soon. Feel free to share anything you like...

You seems to be a beginner so you have to learn a lot working here.To be honest,i earned arround 3$ in first 4 days. But now mylot has come out with increased earning algorithm....which means you can definitely earn more with quality postings and responses.Mind you,those ridiculous discussions which doesn't make any sense won't fetch more points like before according to the new mylot guide lines.So now onwards just concentrate on quality discussions and responses without worrying much on senseless topics.You will gain more on working hard here.All the best.

I totally agree with you! It's the quality discussions which makes MyLot interesting and not the ridiculous ones! The first ones are much more attractive to respond to!

wow thats really great !!! i think i avrage about 2 cents per post when i look at my pay and i usually write quite long posts and dont just reply with yes or no but mylot doesnt give us a set rate so its hard to tell how they figure thier prices out.

To be honest: I hope that the nonsense discussions as you meant above will be deleted by MyLot! It's no use at all what anyone likes above another thing is it?! My earnings are not that high, but I like responding to good discussions and not to the 'discussions with a choice'..... So I'd rather see you starting good discussions and not the nonsense ones!

hi, I've been on mylot for 6 days and have made $4.44 (starting some discussions, replying to some, and adding some pics). I only get on the computer occasionally since I have an 8 month old. I get on when he is napping. I'd be curious to see what that translates to making an hour? I should time how long I am on this one day and see what I make an hour. :) It is probably not very much.

yes i noticed that too, there r a lot of depressing discussions going on out there.who knows how many are real and how much have been put up so as to make you feel "Oh my golly goodness, this person has it so rough,I better post something maybe it will make this wheelchair bound widow and mother of 12 who lives at the train station feel a little bit better"

It's a good earnings for newbie..The stupid discussions got huge responses but not huge money..Why? Because we must discuss...That's the reason.. myLot ask us to start discussion, it's not only start something then we leave it. We must discuss.. So, I suggest you reply to all the responses with quality responses too. Btw, I've posted less than you, but I got more earnings:) Discuss!

haha, i so agree with everything you said. when i started i made a ton of posts, but made little money. now, i have kinda gotten bored with it. i dont make alot of posts, but with the new earning thing, i seem to be making more money. and yes, all the stupidest questions get all the responses. i just dont get it.

i think probably cos the stupid posts allow people to respond without thinking, as opposed to the discussion which have a lot of depth..which probably scare people away in case they feel stupid for typing what they did..haha care to enlighten the rest of us uninformed ones about the new earning thing? is it just that the discussions should have valuable content? or something else... thanks for posting!

I agree with you. I am new to MyLot; It seems that there is quite a range of discussions, from stupid polling questions which are a total waste of time ("yes/no" questions or one-word answers) all the way to real in-depth discussions about interesting topics. I think that the reason for the stupid polling questions getting all of the responses really is that it is a lot easier to type in one or two words and go on to the next post. It takes a lot of thought to respond to some of the real discussions. I would predict that those who are here strictly to make money will be gravitating towards the "stupid questions".

you're doing pretty good, and well for those ridiculous discussions it's better to stay away from them because even if you post 100 replies to such discussions you want on the kind of money that you will get for 30 well meaning discussions . to just continue with the good work and let us all try not to participate in those stupid discussions that lack in substance

I'd say that's good, you're doing a lot better then me. I have been here 7 days now, and this will be my 36th post, and I am currently at 2.13 in earnings, with no referral earnings, and only 0.11 in photo earnings. One thing I noticed is my post count (the number next to my name), only goes up for each discussion I reply to or discussion I start. For example, if I find an interesting topic and I reply to it 6 times, my post number next to my name only goes up one, for the first post in the discussion. I'm guessing I'm earning on all my posts, even though my post number doesn't always go up? Can anyone confirm this? I mean, I saw someone with over (6000) next to their name, did they reply to over (6000) topics? Anyway, I definitely like the more thought provoking topics, and in 7 days I am already finding it hard to find topics that I REALLY want to reply to. Oh well, I like myLot for the most part, and look forward to seeing how it all goes.

i have noticed that if u put up personal pics, or pics taken by you or your friends,then you get paid more for those photos.try it out.i got 60 cents for every 10 photos.thats relatively decent i think.and yeah ive noticed that too about the number not going up when u reply to a topic uve already replied to. that sucks.thanks for posting!
