Would you have been as active in mylot if there was no concept of getting paid?

I think the factor that we earn money by posting and responding to discussions makes the mylotters more active than they would have been otherwise. What do you think about it?

To be honest, most likely not. I originally came to MyLot to make some extra money. Soo yeah there is my answer. :D Happy Mylotting. -AidanKay.

Hi nikky! I would still be active but not as active right now where i would spend lots of time. Like the entire day to myLot! Maybe i will cut my myLotting time by half but still active right? I can't afford not to hear from my friends here so i really should be here everyday.

Well not at first if they stopped paying us. I probally wouldnt post here for a few months but eventually I would start missing this site and start posting again but I wouldnt try as hard to make my post long. I would probally only make one or two sentences at the most.

Probably yes i will still be here without it because i have been into other sites giving answers to questions of users and without being paid. But not too much time to consume like i guess i can only be here posting for one and a half hours a day if that was the case. But since they are a good site, i am spending about five to six hours here depending on my internet connection. Sometimes when my internet does not cooperate, i can only be here for 2 hours or less. And since MyLot is a place where there are good forums or topics to go to, i would still like to post my point of view here. Happy MyLotting!

well, i have just joined this site. still surfing and finding out about things. people are very active here and this is not just because of the payouts. the payment factor is just a kind of motivation and encourahement. it comes to the people in the form of reward for their shareing knowledge. what makes people active here is the various types of discussions, blogs etc. this not helps in enriching one's mind but also helps acquiring knowledge. it has become a hobby for many, a social network for many and for all it is a class room.

Honestly, Yes, still be active and participate in discussions.. Really love to hang out here, coz of some interesting and intellectual people that I can socialized with. It is fun to share your knowledge and be educated also.. My main purpose in joining here in MyLot is not just about getting paid but to learn and socialized in different kinds of people around the world..

Most likely not. I'm usually on MyLot for about half an hour a day, if I have time that day - and I know that if I was wealthy, or if MyLot didn't pay at all, I probably would spend my time doing something else, and I would probably only come on MyLot when I had a serious question for a discussion.
