As i was on the mylot which i open through the email. I found that in the top, where we see the recent update of the interest which we follows in the ascendign order of time. What i found two interes with name "internet". One have forefox in it and other have internet exploere in it. What this mean do we have diffrent intersts with same name how? I didn't belive it. I opened both and check out that they are entirely diffrent from each other as seperate discussion interest. Fellow mylotters what this is can you explain me about this?

There are few of the interest that i think will have same discussion points but i had not seen two of imterest with songle name. Imight foumd so,e from mylot. I belived interest are haveing name diffrent but work in similar way like earn money and etra money like both are same things. User can create interes as if they want and hence might found to many same interest similar property i mean they will have no diffrece. Mylot admin shoild take it and merge all similar closed interest into ome.

Yeah there are just many same or rather similar interests on this website. It is rather amusing, kind of to see that there are about three sections that are called "myLot" that I have seen in the past. The main one obviously that I am posting in right now, and two other offshoot ones. That is one that I think would have been caught but it hasn't. Then again, all it really does is divide the discussions in some way. It does make things rather confusing for some I'm sure but I think that there are just times where whoever creates the discussion forums on this website does not really think. You would think that there would be some obvious ones where you'd go, "that might already be a forum", but sadly no. And it has bee like that for years.

megamatt you are senior member of this website mylot the best site. You might had working from long time as post suggest. You might know abut the interest better than me. I had seen many similar interest but i didn't seen the interest with same name. Once i saw the changes pic of the interest i believed not and posted the discussion about it then i came to know that people can change the interest picture. Now i realised that they didn't have different picture but were same interest in diffrent groups with similar name. You idea about mylot is same and i think i follow 2 of the mylot and didn't know which one is as one have cup of tea and other i think something turning blue picture. It annoying that we have diffrent discussion for the same interest in two forum like what it seems to me. I one time i feel little crazy as which interest i i am postin when i saw my rank in those interest.

This happens when members their own areas of interests that are already existing. So, under the category of internet, there were already several members who created the same that's why you see there are already handfuls of them only with different pictures representing them. I really think MyLot admin should create the categories of interest and should not leave this to the members.

alicia812 yeah you right this happen when there is already listed interest is there and new mmebr creat that interest agian. I mean it might had happend liked this - a older user previously created his interest as "internet" and then an new user came and he didn't bothere in searching if the interest is listed or not and he creates another interest with name "internet". But mylot didn't allow same name in a sing le gropu so i thin both of them had created the interest list in diffrent gropus which i cem to know from above discussion. I also in prefer that admin shuld create the interest and didn't let user to create them but all users to suggest admin the interest if there is new they thin need to be included in the list.

They arent the same name at all but both say internet underneath of them. Well firefox is a internet explorer as well as internet expolorer. Both mean the same but both are different programs. Like you can have lets say an iphone or a droid pretty much they both have the same games and can do the same thing but are different brands just like firefox is a different brand from internet explorer but both can do the same thing.

"Well firefox is a internet explorer as well as internet expolorer." First i didn't got the meaning of this sentence. How firefox can be internet explorer? Both are diffrent application. Both are diffrent from each other. Yeah they related to each other as same working thing, i mean both are browser to surf internet. You example of iphones and droid is good but i didn't read the discussion fully or missunderstood it. As mike197601 says there are two diffrent interest with same name both are named as "internet". First with internet name has picture of firefox in it and second with internet name has internet explorer in thier picture of it. Offcourse they are diffrent discussion interest but have same name. That i want to say.

Some peoples like to make comparisation, they just want to see that the interest thay have created get more peoples who follow it. Maybe, just maybe you are like them if you have that ability.

You are right there few crispy person so just want to rule the things around. They want to be at top with creating different interest so that it have more person followed that then the similar interst have the followers. These people should thought of making money rather than playing like this. As anyone use to create these interest theres is possiblities that there may be more than one interest of similar kinds. Also i had seen that interest with similarities are placed in diffrent gropu and thus make them diffrent not the smae thought they are same.

Every member can create an interest with the same name that an existing one in a different group of interests -- we have also 2 "make extra money" interests in different groups -- or can create one with a slightly different name -- there is a "myLot" and a "myLot.com" interests --. I agree it is a bit annoying... Some interests were just created for fun years ago -- have a look at "pets" by example --, and have never seen a discussion : cleaning myLot from these empty interests would be a good thing for the community.
