What made you come back?

This question is for all the users here who left and came back, what made you reverse your decision? For me, it was my good friend reminding me that even though she was doing the same kind of research work that I was, she felt she still could be here when she had no work to do and thus keep up with friendships etc, what was your reason for coming back?

Hi Rose I want to get my payout even though it is taking forever, and there are not a lot of good discussions here, I am not interested in some of the stuff that requires no thought or input but agreement with the author. So I will slug along and keep in touch with a few of the good old friends, and I count you among one of them

Well I left this site a few months ago because I was bored of it and I found pogo.com and became addicted to that site lol. I didnt start posting again till a few days ago and I dont think I will post as much as I did when I first started. But what do I know. I came back because I miss posting on this forum and I want to make extra money lol.

I came back because I really like to spend some of my time here. I took about a 6 month break from Mylot though because I was so busy working with my other programs online. I thought I could at least come to Mylot and spend a little bit of my time and see my old friends and contribute her. Good to see you come back also. I have missed seeing you.

I left for about 3 months but not because I do not like the site but I was busy with some projects at work and now I am back with full drive and already meet the minimum payout for this month. I came back since I found that this is one legitimate site and there are so many things that I can read here and it is better than going to any news site and not to mention that I have made many new friends and also learned new things on myLot.

I leave on and off, depending on what mood I'm in. This month I can really use the money, because of some unexpected things that came up down here in AZ. I'm saving up for when I get back home, so I can do what I want when I'm back in Canada. MyLot has been a good source of money for me to spend on coffee. LOL

I had a lot of things that came up that kept me from coming here. They are taken care of so I am back and loving it as I always did. I love coming to this site and the reason I started here is the same one I came back for. People, people, and people. I like the friendliness of this site. Being able to discuss things here is another reason why I ended back on this site. It is good to be back and I will be around for quite some time.

I had originally signed up to use mylot as a sounding board for philosophical short dissertations I had written. I had spent years doing research developing ideas and wanted a little feedback to help me refine ideas. I was not expecting to make much money and was not disappointed on that front. At the rate I'm going it will take YEARS before I reach the minimum $10 pay out so obviously this is not a practical method to make supplimental income. I became thoroughly disgusted at the initial responses to my postings, as well as, the type of postings I was seeing flooding the site with frivolous and nonsensical topics. I stopped using mylot for about 7 months and recently came back primarily to aleviate boredom. I now use mylot soley for entertainment or to vent frustrations with society. My first post was to be the first in a three part series but I think I'll save those other two topics and search for a more apropriate venue for them.
