This is the about only site like this I've been on & I've been here for at least 4 yrs ( the only way I know is because I loaded some pictures that long ago ).

Myspace went quick since it crashed my connection all the time.

One of two things happens to me when I come across a new site. Either I get on it, and right away I discover that it's really not for me, or I get on it, absolutely love it, find all kinds of cool things to do on it, and stick with it for years to come. I have been on MyLot since November 2006, and Gather since May 2006.


myLot reputation of 97/100. moonlitmagikchild (8089)   ranked 45 out of 19,273 in questions & answers  3 years ago

yeah it seems like i can usually tell pretty quick if i will spend a lot of time there or if i will log in maybe a half a dozen times more before quitting

I don't usually get burnout from a site. if I feel like I am getting tired and not doing my best with the site then I just lay-off of it a few days.
With MyLot, I am not only here for the money, but have made some nice friends and now I have become a part of their lives and I would miss that if I just up and quit being on here.


myLot reputation of 97/100. moonlitmagikchild (8089)   ranked 45 out of 19,273 in questions & answers  3 years ago

yeah that is why i wouldnt quit being here.. i am just spending less time on here so i can get more important things done.. what drives me nuts is knowing that when i do take breaks from here i am getting behind to where it will just cut into how much time i can spend on answering other peoples posts


myLot reputation of 98/100. OLIJULSAR (1063)  3 years ago

It seems like I am always running behind on my responses, but I eventually get caught up on the ones that I have a response for.
I usually try and work on the ones I am behind on, on Saturday or Sunday becasue it seems like activity is down on those days.So it is a little easier to catch up.


myLot reputation of 97/100. moonlitmagikchild (8089)   ranked 45 out of 19,273 in questions & answers  3 years ago

if it gets to being like 5 days old i will just go ahead and delete them since i get hundreds of emails a day (from all types of places other than mylot) and i will have such a huge pile i just figure its already this late then why bother?? which i feel bad for but i can only do what i can do


myLot reputation of 98/100. OLIJULSAR (1063)  3 years ago

I know what you mean, I feel really bad when I can't get to respond to one of my friends discussions. It really upsets me because but I know they are probably in the same shoes sometimes.

I am sorry to hear that my friend. I have never experienced that online yet and i hope that i won't have to. My only problem is my pc often gets busted and it takes quite awhile to get it up and running again. Gave a nice day my friend.


myLot reputation of 97/100. moonlitmagikchild (8089)   ranked 45 out of 19,273 in questions & answers  3 years ago

i guess your computer is making sure you take breaks then lol.. yeah if i had to deal with my computer breaking down often i dont think i would get tired of any sites because i would be missing them a lot when i couldnt sign in

I don't know but usually a few months but lately i haven't been on any sites lately since i've been busy preparing for the baby and am staying with my folks. So yeah things have been hectic recently lol... but i usually get bored of a site within a few months =P

But mylot is one of the sites that i try to get on time to time ;)


myLot reputation of 97/100. moonlitmagikchild (8089)   ranked 45 out of 19,273 in questions & answers  3 years ago

yeah i wont give up on mylot but just having to choose whats important right now.. but it took me 9 months before i would even think about straying 5 minutes away from mylot lol

Well, the thing about Mylot is you can always take a break and comeback whenever you want. They wont delete your account or anything, you can just comeback and start up again whenever. I dont blame you for being burned out, my mailbox can atest everyday to how busy you have been here, even though I dont feel much like responding to too many discussions at least I come around more often then I have the last few months.
I think for me work has kept me to busy and/or to tired to spend to much time here the last few months.
By all means it wouldnt hurt anything for you to take a break and spend some time doing other things for a while and if and when you feel like coming back mylot will still be here and most of your friends will too.

Hugs, Tianna


myLot reputation of 97/100. moonlitmagikchild (8089)   ranked 45 out of 19,273 in questions & answers  3 years ago

yeah its great mylot doesnt delete you for taking a break.. those sites drove me nuts because it would always be sites i wouldnt use often that would do it and i would have to re-sign up and ugh! the hassle!

i didnt expect you would feel this way as you are quite an active person in mylot, i know you often have several problems with your health and parents and electronic items, but then you were still alive, keep the same spirit and dont dull out now...

i have not really tried any other sites before for i was not interested, but since my hubby introduced mylot to me nearly a year ago, i sort of liked it and am just continuing with it though not much active, but i do log in at least twice or thrice in a week since this site is a relaxation spot for me and you were the only one i knew well among all the others in mylot...


myLot reputation of 97/100. moonlitmagikchild (8089)   ranked 45 out of 19,273 in questions & answers  3 years ago

oh i wont disappear for long.. i just am so going nuts because i have so much i feel like i have to do right this second that theres no time for fun.. im hoping after the bed gets here then that will be the end of deliveries (i have had something being delivered almost every day last week) and then i wont be sleeping all crazy to be awake and waiting for them lol..


myLot reputation of 97/100. sharay (1460)   ranked 898 out of 19,273 in questions & answers  3 years ago

Work is first always, do concentrate on them, but dont forget to have fun in between which is the one that is going to keep you alive when you are fed up...

I don't really "burn-out," but that's mostly because I don't typically obsess enough to 'freeze-in.'

I know there WERE a few blog-sites that COULD have been 'big money' for me if I had already had a substantial income (rather than the pathetic little bit I receive from Genworth insurance every month ... just enough to pay for food, -my pathetic apartment, and -a tiny bit extra),

but my dad is a dog-for-money (rather than an enterprising human) and--when he saw that I'm not so sure an investment as he could have made me--he and my mom split up and he disappeared.

jeeze what an insane reason to just up and leave
