Crash (7)   ranked 1,299 out of 32,540 in mylot.com2 years ago

The 48 hour period is over, and responses are no longer being accepted! New responses will not be answered, so please read the multiple answers I've already given here. Thanks!

I think it's time we have a revealing question and answer session with the members of myLot. Sound like fun? I think so!

My username is Crash, and you can learn a little more about me by visiting my profile. My official position at myLot shall remain a mystery for now, but let's just say I know enough to answer pretty much any question you throw my way. If I don't know the answer, then I'll do my best to bug the right people at myLot to get it answered, or I'll make something up:)

So here's what I want to do. I will respond to any question posted in this discussion (subject to a few ground rules) in the next 48 hours. It might take me a little while to get through them all, but as long as the question is posted within 48 hours, I will answer it.

Here are the ground rules...

1) Only one question per myLot member, so make it a good one!
2) Don't post the same question that has already been asked by someone else.
3) Feel free to comment under someone else's question, but follow-up questions are not allowed in the comments
4) Keep it clean and respectful! I carry around a big delete button in my pocket, and I will definitely use it on any response or comment that I feel doesn't contribute posititvely to our discussion (of course, I also know how to use the plus/minus buttons in the discussion rating system). Keep in mind that the less times I have to delete something, the more likely I am to engage in similar discussions in the future!
5) I'll throw an extra $20 into the Paypal account of whoever gets my best response. The best response will go to the most original, thought-provoking question about myLot.
6) Let's have fun!

So let me get this started by asking the first question...

What would YOU like to know about myLot???

Hello Mr. Crash,

Thank you for replying those lot of question about co-mylooters, we all know that everyone needs help lot of discussion,rating, earning got a problem & become a question but in your help we know understand how it will work to all of us.

But i have only my little tiny question about, transfering the account, like me still waiting to recieve my payment, this is my first time to recieve how & hen i can get it because im here in abroad we dont have paypal in kuwait,how will work.

Thank You once again.


Crash (7)   ranked 1,299 out of 32,540 in mylot.com  2 years ago

I believe you can be paid through Moneybookers. If that's not available in your particular country, you should contact myLot_Payments and we will work out some wait to get you paid.


myLot reputation of 76/100. cherylal (6383)   ranked 2,034 out of 32,540 in mylot.com  2 years ago

I am also in Kuwait and waiting for my payment and I even checked from Moneybookers.com but they need a Bank Account in which I do not have, Is it possible to received it through my Mail Box in which it is written in the proper location that I have here in Kuwait.....

Was this site started as a test in Psychology? Did someone sit back and say: Hey I want to check out real life reactions to real life problems and make a little dough while I'm at it?"

If you read through some of these discussions you will find that there is the best and worst of human nature on here and lots of raw emotion that even comes through a computer screen and for this reason, my lot is genius.

There is my generic analysis of my lot!:)

Just an idea: Contests would be cool like here 20 bucks for the best response..
Maybe something like that for thought provoking discussions, etc..

Have a great one and thanks for the Q & A!


Crash (7)   ranked 1,299 out of 32,540 in mylot.com  2 years ago

myLot was started because we're all entrepreneurs and always looking to build something new and great. I think most of us had paper routes, lemonade stands, etc. growing up.

You're right, I'd think a psychology major could really get lost in here!


myLot reputation of 82/100. skinnychick (3317)   ranked 1,964 out of 32,540 in mylot.com  2 years ago

Thanks for taking the time to respond. I'm a Psych minor and I'm lost in here because of it- I could only imagine the majors!:)

Hey Crash,
I read as many responses as I could and that leads me to the question that I really want an answer to. Now, the way I see it, if we come into a discussion (such as this one) and many people have already responded to it, we should not have to read each response.
Some people's responses are long and drawn out and if we read all of them, we will not have much time for responding. My question then is, are we penalized for asking the same or similar question or posting the same response in a single discussion?
When there are already a lot of responses and I am not able to read them all, I will try to write something that is personal, so I know it will be orginal, but that is almost impossible at times.


Crash (7)   ranked 1,299 out of 32,540 in mylot.com  2 years ago

No, there is no direct penalization. However, if myLot members feel you haven't done your homework, then there's a chance you might get rated negatively.

You're right, it is oftentimes tough to get through it all, but I recommend doing your best to see what other people have wrote before adding your own input.

Also, I should point out that there should be nothing wrong with starting a discussion that's already been covered, as long as some time has passed and perhaps you have a new angle on the discussion.

For instance, just because someone discussed who the best American Idol of all time is, doesn't mean we shouldn't discuss that same topic some time later. Things change and more people are joining myLot every day.

So don't be afraid to start topics. But do a little homework and make sure that topic hasn't been brought up recently. If it has, then feel free to join in on that discussion as a responder.


myLot reputation of 80/100. Rozie37 (7152)   ranked 3,342 out of 32,540 in mylot.com  2 years ago

Thank you very much for your response.

64. myLot reputation of 92/100. Celanith (1853)   ranked 2,092 out of 32,540 in mylot.com   2 years ago

I joined Mylot over a year ago and set my payout at $100.00 as I thought by now I would reach that goal some months ago. However Life has not been kind to me in the way of health and legal issues and other problems so I am not on Mylot like I first was. As a result of course I am barely 1/4 the way to the $100 payout. Is there no way to reduce the amount to say $30 or $50? And once you select the pay out is it perpetul once pay out is achieved or can we re-set it after first payout. My second question is about referrals. I had 4 but they none of them do anything. Why I don't know and everyone else just is skeptical and won't join until I reach pay out and prove your not a scam which goes back to my initial question.

Yep, you should be able to reset it for a smaller amount.

Hi Crash! It looks like you are definitely a value addition to the mylotters. Thanks a lot for the assistance offered.

My question is " How can i let all my mylot friends know that I have started a new discussion here?"
(The msg option does not have the send to 'all' option and most mylotters do not keep the 'notify on')


Crash (7)   ranked 1,299 out of 32,540 in mylot.com  2 years ago

Hmm, if they have notify turned off, then emailing obviously isn't an option. We only want to send emails if they're wanted by that myLot member.

Actually, from what I've seen a large portion of myLotters actually do keep 'notify on'. For those with large friends lists, however, this could definitely become an issue with an overload of emails.

There's really nothing else you can do right now. However, look for some improvements in this area with a future upgrade:) I can hear the developers coding away right now. In fact, I can see the smoke coming off of their keyboards!

Hi Crash. it seems to be a very good user friendly initiative from mylot side. I have a question regarding earning. Hope you don't mind to answer it. Is there any rate of payment for per post or response? I have seen few days i get 17 cents for 40 responses and some day 30 cents for total 32 responses.


myLot reputation of 96/100. ebsharer (2474)   ranked 390 out of 32,540 in mylot.com  2 years ago

http://www.mylot.com/o/fa... that link out ... it explains the earnings.


Crash (7)   ranked 1,299 out of 32,540 in mylot.com  2 years ago

Yep, we don't pay per post. Our algorithm is much more sophisticated than that. That link will help, as well as some of my other responses on that topic.

hello there crash^_^


i am really having fun reading the whole discussion, it may be odd... but i really want to know..
why did you ever created mylot and introduced it to the whole world?


i find this program so far, my home.. its where i belong, no matter where i go for paying sites, i end up here..
i am looking for an answers.. is it for charity?



i would be pleased if mylot owners will inform us the true essence of mylot.com.




you take care crash^_^


Crash (7)   ranked 1,299 out of 32,540 in mylot.com  2 years ago

I wish it were for charity, but no, we have bills to pay. We're a team of successful internet entrepreneurs, and myLot is our pride and joy.

We all felt that there had to be a better way for people to share information on the internet. We have helped changed lives here (actually YOU have helped change lives here!) and that is something that we're very proud of.

The earnings program is nice, but that's certainly not the essence of myLot. The essence of myLot is you the people, and the wealth of knowledge you have created and graciously shared with the world.


myLot reputation of 94/100. vehaileairu (1058)   ranked 769 out of 32,540 in mylot.com  2 years ago

i am so honored reading this, you are great.. and let mylot know, theres no place worth sharing golden wisdom, than here and only here in mylot..

thank you so much for paying us, while we enjoy whole heartedly^_^

Hi Crash.I have to admit, I was a little concerned about this "Message", as my worry radar went beeping, the moment I saw the word Crash....Thinking it was some sort of clever spam and/or virus, to make things all messed up, in way, I cannot even begin to state...I feel confident now, after reading your discussion, that this is not the case and that "CRASH" (you) is simply your member name...Whew.Now that, that is out of the way..I must say hello, and nice to meet your acquaintance.I am happy to know that you exist and have a very important and vital role, in the over all success of this incredible site.

Here is my question to you. Given the recent negative/positive news/and or popularity, towards/about sites like, myspace, facebook, blogger,MSN and Yahoo groups (some of the top social networking sites), and some other less known sites, would you feel confident enough, to share your view of the future, and say that, myLOT is at a point, where it/we/they, will be on the top five list/s for best sites used for social networking, free information sharing/searching, and "blogging" within the next 12 months or less?



I cannot include all that myLOT encompasses, as there are so many things. All I can say,is that, I have been around the web enough to know, that for myself, though I only recently joined, that myLOT, is quickly becoming, my go to site, for almost all, that I require/desire/need and want, and may in fact be the only site I spend the majority of my time on, in the very near future. So what do you think crash, you guys have a determination, to provide one of the best sites out there.Can you even state your personal opinion or did my mentioning other sites mes things up.Did I make a booboo?.For some reason, I have that initial thought, when I ask this question.If this discussion,(sorry I still have to get used to the terminology)is answered, then I believe I have just given myLOT, another GOLD STAR for the fantastic site it is already. We have been indirectly influenced by news about other sites we may/may not use. A fear arises, hoping that what we say is acceptable.Need I even mention the fact that free speech is still a right, despite the fact that media in general, has become biased and often one sided, as a result of the source that pays for it/ and or other factors that influence how we write, what we write, and the information we share, or rather at times, do not/or cannot share. A woman by the name of Lesley Hughes comes to mind.So CRASH, can you answer the initial question for me?




Crash (7)   ranked 1,299 out of 32,540 in mylot.com  2 years ago

Well, it all depends upon how we define "best sites". We're already the best site for interest-based discussions on the internet. Of that, I am confident.

We're already the best site in terms of the proportion of quality user participation. Seriously, you guys are the best! OK, I know that's corny again, but you asked how I felt, right?

I imagine you're defining "best site" in terms of quantity. We're not gonna catch Facebook or Myspace anytime soon, in terms of membership. And that's fine with us. We do have a lot of growing to do, however. I believe we've only scratched the surface on the true potential of myLot.

Hey Crash...

On your profile it says you are here to do something about the lack of communication between members and admins....

So my question is this:Why is it that when we email or PM Mylot we VERY RARELY get an answer???


myLot reputation of 34/100. zukepr (11799)   ranked 19,301 out of 32,540 in mylot.com  2 years ago

another good question!


Crash (7)   ranked 1,299 out of 32,540 in mylot.com  2 years ago

A lot of times, I'm sure it depends on your question. We are flooded with inquries, and our rate of response is something we're working on improving.
