Mylot is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get...  |
|
With apologies to Forrest Gump. I'd been a away for a short a while and I wasn't able to join in the discussions and I thought my activities will come to a halt but when I signed in again, lo and behold, one of my posts got 96 responses which gave me a lot of more work LOL I have a couple of friends requests and additional best responses. I am absolutely overjoyed and was encouraged more.
But things are not everyday like this, I hope it is but there are times when I find some discouraging experiences that are really disappointing. Responses are slow, uncalled for comments, internet is acting up etc.
How about you my friend?
What are your encouraging and disappointing moments in mylot?

1. allknowing (260) | 3 weeks ago | Welcome back! Nice to hear that you have had so many responses. Am interested to know which question it was. Yes. You are right. Every day is not Sunday! You are comparing this forum to a box of chocolates which means whatever your experience chocolate it is!!! Have you never had bitter experiences which are expected here sometimes? Tell us about them.

manong05 (2932) | 3 weeks ago | Thanks allknowing. The topic was about whether we sometimes use fingers for eating rather than using spoon and fork. I never expected that a great majority will find that an interesting topic.
Well I can say that the bitter moments are mostly when receiving comments that obviously the one who responded did not actually read the contents and jump to conclusions immediately in a criticizing manner. I wish they could have at least read the contents and the previous responses before judgmental. Anyway, this is a fact that we sometimes have to face in mylot. It is indeed a box of chocolates, some sweet like our favs and some are bitter, but nevertheless, same chocolates.

allknowing (260) | 3 weeks ago | I fully agree with you excepting that bitter chocolates are yummy too!

2. mysdianait (11788) | 3 weeks ago | It's the chocolates with the nuts in that are the hardest to cope with on here!
Somwetimes the wrappers on the chocolates lead you to think that there is something good inside and then lead to disappointment but luckily that doesnot' happen often. At least the box is never empty!
I am always thrilled to see friends return after they disappear for some reason that we are unaware of. Somw leave and tell us beforehand but others just stop posting and we know the reason even months later. That is always a happy occurance!
I have had some disappointing moments learning that friends have problems which do not come across in their discussions. Only after getting to know them better outside the discussions do they tell you the things that sadden their hearts and those are the times that I am disappointed. I would love for us all to have fewer problems but alas that is not possible.
Welcome back and I hope you have renewed enthusiasm and will be busy again!

manong05 (2932) | 3 weeks ago | thanks mysdianait. I like the way you said that disappointment doesn't happen often and the box is never empty. It is not everyday that we find ourselves struggling chewing the nuts. Often there are sweet ones especially when we have real friends that make this site a very worthwhile place to spend our time in inspite of a hard day's work. It can be absolutely relaxing.
Thanks for the welcome. I am still tied up for the next couple of weeks but I will sign in from time to time even if I have to use wireless broadband when I am in the workplace. It's definitely not cost effective that way for I have to spend a lot more than what I get but the time is worth.
enjoy!

3. jillhill (11567) | 3 weeks ago | Welcome back.....its' always nice when someone returns....and you are right...it's like a box of chocolates.....somedays you get all the carmels....some days you get that nasty jelly stuff inside! LOL....whatever though.......it's nice you came back home to mylot!
| |

|
|
manong05 (2932) | 3 weeks ago | Thanks jillhill, I'm actually dying to come back and even when I'm at work, my mind is active in the discussions thinking of the topics and the nice responses from friends. This really is a wonderful site. Excellent.

4. moneymakingtoday (1559) | 3 weeks ago | My friend, I saw it was reaping 77 responses on the day I commented on it having reached at that response level. It really sparked the interest of many though as you said, there were disappointing sides of it. I, too,would indeed be surprised to see such huge turnout of responses upon my return. On the side, it surely would be a lot of work to face but they are an encouragement. With the good and not-so-good responses (those not reading between the lines and outrightly criticized a certain culture's practice), life has to go on ... expect more boxes of chocolates to open before your eyes here. With me, all you can get are boxes of malunggay chocolates (hey, they are chocolates, just the same, hahahahaha).
| |

|
|
manong05 (2932) | 3 weeks ago | Well the 77 has gone up to 96 already which gave me a lot of homework to do making comments. I may have to spend a day. LOL
Another business proposition? Malunggay chocolates, why not? our kinamot and tiniil have not gotten off the ground yet. Hahaha!
Yes it is really very difficult to stay from mylot for a long time and I find myself thinking of mylot even at work. Those wonderful comments keep ringing in my mind especially this good old and humble malunggay.
| |
|
|
moneymakingtoday (1559) | 3 weeks ago | Yes, I see that ... 96 and still going (no, not age, hahaha). That surely is the right boost after a short "hibernation". I can say that it is an achievement and for that, congrats, my friend! Don't mind the homework that goes along with it. That is the most enjoyable part. Welcome back, we surely missed you.

|
|
manong05 (2932) | 3 weeks ago | Isn't it a wonderful feeling that inspite of who am I, I am sometimes missed! LOL I will be doing more of disappearing acts from now on. Hahahaha I guess it betrays the concealed trait that I am a little KSP.
Thanks.

5. solared (844) | 3 weeks ago | Stupid is as stupid does...lol
I don't have bad moments here so far, well maybe having people request to be friends and then spamming me...lol
| |
| |
|
|
manong05 (2932) | 3 weeks ago | I agree, that some people who make requests are frustrating at times. Either they spam you or don't reciprocate your responses. Maybe they requested us to add in their list of users who will respond to them.
enjoy!

6. Louc74 (168) | 3 weeks ago | Hi, Manong! Welcome back!
I'll have to go and have a look for that discussion now! It seems to have been popular.
I think sometimes you have to have a tough skin on here, but I'm like you - I've had mostly good experiences here.
Well, I'll let you get on with your work! Sounds like you'll have about a weeks worth! Lol!
| |

|
|
manong05 (2932) | 3 weeks ago | thanks louc74. Yes, mostly good experiences and the less encouraging ones are few and far between.
enjoy!

7. rg0205 (1726) | 3 weeks ago | Like yourself, it's encouraging when I get useful and interesting responses, not to many the amount of responses. What disappoints me sometimes is when people have the tendency to get defensive about things or they're just plain rude.
| |
| |
|
|
manong05 (2932) | 3 weeks ago | Disappointing indeed and there are times, frustrating to the point of ruining our day and our concentration to contribute more quality ones. Well, I guess that is something we have to expect in a forum like this one where there are different users with different values and character traits. The good thing is, they are far outnumbered by the good ones.
enjoy!

9. kdhartford (943) | 3 weeks ago | I agree, sometimes MyLot is surprising and some days I dread logging on. One thing that I like is when people give good reasoned responses, not just clever little sound bites. I know that in some way this is the society we live in...just wrapped up in neat little sound bites.
| |
| |
|
|
manong05 (2932) | 3 weeks ago | True and we cannot overstate the importance of a well thought of discussion. It encourages me a lot to read responses I feel that people are really putting their hearts into it. This makes our mylotting experience worthwhile.
enjoy!

10. getbrowser (1432) | 3 weeks ago | myLot is really like a box of chocolates and we should work hard everyday through our efforts if one want to eat more than others.
One reaps no more than what he has sown. Here, if one want to earn much more money through posting responses and discussions, you will never give up or then you won't get any earnings. I have to say that all people are equal on myLot, under the algorithm of myLot, everyone who want to cheat here will be found and get deserved punishment.
Sometimes, I may get tired of posting responses everyday, then I will cappy on the career here after a simple adjustion.

|
manong05 (2932) | 3 weeks ago | Yes our income here is directly proportional to the effort we put in. If we always do our homework, then well in good. There may be rouge users who want to beat the system but it doesn't work that way. You are one of the most active users here getbrowser, good work.
enjoy!
