Search Engine Problem  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 89/100. snowdoll487 (2965) 2 years ago

Waaaaaaaaaa! I received a notice about suspicious activity about using search engine and at the moment is suspended to use the Search function. @_@ And honestly it sucks.. I depend so much on search engine when it comes to finding or searching discussions that interest me. :(

Is anyone experiencing the same?

You don't have to worry about that. The site gives the notice when you use the search engine too much to prevent its misuse. You can use it like you normally do. Usually the notice is given when there is certain amount of search done in an hour or something. I am not sure what the number is. I receive the suspicious activity notice before and wrote to the admin asking if I've done something wrong. That is what they told me.

Hope that helps.

@_@ Whew, I guess I've been overusing it.. I keep on typing the same keywords maybe thats one of the top reason I got suspended. @_@ Well I guess I won't be able to use it in 24 hours.. >_< And I only earned .08c when they suspended my account search engine function..

Regarding your search engine problems,

Mylot pays at random a bonus amount of cash for using their search engine feature, so if you are constantly using it, more than you probably would another search engine, say google for example, then they think you are just trying to gain the bonus cash reward. This may well be why you have had the search function suspended at present. Try using different ways of finding topics or subject that you are interested in. Build up your interests in your profile is a good place to start.
Hope you get to use the search bar again soon.
Have fun here in myLot..


myLot reputation of 89/100. snowdoll487 (2965)  2 years ago

*sigh* I guess it is due to typing keywords repetitively. :( Well its the only way I can find topics of my interest. Now I will have to search 'em manually. :( WAAAAAAAA! How long does it take? I mean before I can resume to my usual routine? :P


myLot reputation of 96/100. HADDOWZ (802)   ranked 1,574 out of 26,170 in make extra money  2 years ago

Sorry, I dont know the answer to that question, all I can suggest is you contact the myLot Admin for more help with this subject. Fingers crossed you will be back up and running sooner rather than later.


myLot reputation of 89/100. snowdoll487 (2965)  2 years ago

I've resumed the use of my search engine today.. Thank God. It scared the hell out of me. I thought i'll be banned or something.. :(

Thanks for responding..

Hi Snowdoll

No, I have not had that problem.

You can earn when searching on many search engines today.

I hope you solve your problem and that you are rewarded for your searches.

If you want to know good search engines, please pm me.

I am not tech savvy but do know some good searches.

Have a nice day friend.


myLot reputation of 89/100. snowdoll487 (2965)  2 years ago

Oh I use mylot search engine to search topics of my interest. And to avail of the reward given by mylot by using the search engine.. Twas the first time I experienced a problem. @_@ But thanks for responding.. :)

I also experienced that, once or twice, and I learned what to do. Once you have received your MyLot Search Reward, try stop for a while, or resume use of MyLot Search the next day.

That's the weakness of MyLot Search Engine. Once the system have given you your reward, if you persist of using it more, they will suspect you want to earn more rewards (even if you are sincerely using the search engine for your research).

What you need to do is, once you have received the reward, stop using search engine. Resume using it after some time or the next day, and if you are really doing some serious search and research, that's the time to use other alternatives for a while like Yahoo or Google.


myLot reputation of 89/100. snowdoll487 (2965)  2 years ago

I used to earn .20c using search engine and have not encountered a problem using the system.. Just yesterday. :( But now it resumed to working properly.. I'm pretty much dependent on this function.. >_< To easily find topics of my interest..

Hi snowdoll,
It happened to me a couple of times. I was warned about suspicious behavior. Then the next day, I can use the search box again.

I use the search box like you do too - to look for discussions that I can comment on. Sometimes the current ones are not as interesting so I look for those in the archive.

I think every time you use the search box and the results are displayed, you must click on one of the results and look at the page for maybe a few minutes before going back to myLot to use the search box again. That way you won't be accused of doing anything suspicious.


myLot reputation of 89/100. snowdoll487 (2965)  2 years ago

Well just the answer I've been looking for. Thanks for the information UmiNoor. :) I've resumed using the search engine's function.. :)

Using mylot search engine continuously will marks you to be abusive.. I recommend to use it once in a while not time to time..


myLot reputation of 93/100. consultrainer (2137)   ranked 1,443 out of 26,170 in make extra money  2 years ago

but, mylot guidelines say, use the search bar, just as you use anyother google, bing or yahoo search bar. and, I too got this warning. it may be because, I HAVE changed the words .. just to get the search broader. .. started with five keywords, and filtered down to three..and ... there was the FLASH WARNING. i closed down the browser for another three hours, cleared the cookies, before I dared to start mylot again.


myLot reputation of 89/100. snowdoll487 (2965)  2 years ago

T_T Why will they put a search engine if using it often would mean a violation.. :( The notion is just weird.. But so far everything is back to normal.. :) I can use the search engine again.. :)


myLot reputation of 90/100. kent_help2smile (5080)  2 years ago

@ Consultrainer : No need to clear your cookies in terms of like this situation.

@ Snowdoll487 : Search Engine is provided there to search for certain TAG or keyword you are looking for. Receiving dollars from this is just to compensate you for using it. But if you use search engine redundantly it may lead to abuse. In order to avoid this kind of problem in the near future. Use mylot search engine once in a while BUT NOT MINUTE BY MINUTE.


myLot reputation of 89/100. snowdoll487 (2965)  2 years ago

that indeed is the only solution.. :) Now I use search engine after every hour.. :P Well the max reward I can get now is .10c.. which is good already.. :)


myLot reputation of 90/100. kent_help2smile (5080)  2 years ago

Good? For me that's very good! I seldom use mylot search engine. The highest I could possibly get in a month is just 0.03 because I seldom use it. I just use it if I am making a certain discussion.


myLot reputation of 89/100. snowdoll487 (2965)  2 years ago

Well, You should try using it often.. :) I mean at least 3x a day for the rewards.. :)

i presume, it is just an algorithm, which tries to prevent the misuse.

i also got the flash of warning, when I kept changing the keywords.. and tried to search.. . i was scared that my earnings, my friends.. all would be GONE in a flash..
but, ..

Better search through your other means... and use mylot searching only for RICH KEYWORDS.


myLot reputation of 89/100. snowdoll487 (2965)  2 years ago

I guess that could be a case.. Its just puzzles me since I can earn to as much as .20c using the search engine twice a day.. Twas just yesterday that a warning popped out.. :( It scared me to death. I thought i'll be banned and my earnings gone.. @_@


myLot reputation of 93/100. consultrainer (2137)   ranked 1,443 out of 26,170 in make extra money  2 years ago

lucky for you .. that it is normal again. BUT, .. YOUR topic works out as a warning to other users too. GREAT service.

let us be happy ... and my lot a lot.thumbup

Haha that's a good joke. They tell you to use the search engine to optimize your gain, but then you have certain limits. myLot could be weird sometimes


myLot reputation of 89/100. snowdoll487 (2965)  2 years ago

I think they restrict you from further using mylot search engine.. :( Whe nyou receive three rewards then you cannot use it further.. :(
