I just don't get it. If you haven't heard, Atlanta Falcons star quarterback Michael Vick owns a house that a relative resides in. Recently the house was raided for drugs, they also found evidence of organize dog fighting, not...

jimbl75 I know, that's what blows my mind. I guess I am not as surprised that it is out there and people enjoy it and even defend it. What surprised me is people in the spotlight, like professional athletes, would actually come out and defend it like it is no big...

My boyfriend and I had a little fight yesterday. It lasted for a few minutes, then we were back to being happy again. Not until today, when I ruined the whole thing with just a text message (SMS). A close friend of mine sent me...

jimbl75 You're welcome, I thought you might like a guys point of view. And believe me my wife is more patient with me than I am with her, in fact she has to be, I'm much more of a pain in her butt than she is a pain in my butt. :-) We understand each other and our...

Someone walking around with snake turds in their hands. That was me last night. My wife pointed out that my snake had left a huge pile in her cage, and yes snake turds stink just like about any turds do. So I was just going to...

jimbl75 Turd - a piece of fecal matter. Basically, my snake went to the bathroom and I couldn't help but laugh at the prospect that I was walking around with her "poop" in my hands. It wasn't the first time I handled her poop, won't be the last time either. As...

jimbl75 Haha, that reminds me of a story about a friend of mine on the golf course. We came across a wild snake and he thought it would be cool to catch it. I told him that they tend to piss when frightened and their piss can be raunchy, it's like a defense...

I signed up for it the other day, and am a little confused as to how it works. Do you just post in the forums? What about the other things like SwatPrizes?

Let me set this story up some. About 3 years ago, I had an Umbrella Cockatoo that I absolutely loved, his name is Buddy. My wife at the time, now my ex, who wanted the bird before we ever bought him, could not stand him anymore...

jimbl75 They do have amazing personalities. Most people do understand the appeal, but once you've been around one enough, they can make such an impression on you. Buddy required a lot of attention, but it was so worth it because he loved you back in so many ways....

Hi I want to know if the new ad system and new ads are working for people. I noticed more ads for the first 2 days, but now I am only getting 1 or 2. What is your take on this.

As most of you know, you now have to have a rating of 500 or more to be able to upload photos into discussions and to be able to paste text when creating or responding to discussions. Is this really a good feature though? First,...

jimbl75 Sounds like you are kind of like me in posting, we don't have a lot of time to post like crazy in the quality we do. They should introduce a Time threshold also. For instance, no matter what, when you make it to 500 you get the features. But also you could...

jimbl75 Like I've said already, what is easy for you isn't easy for everyone. Plus, you are missing my point- just because someone has 500 or more posts doesn't necessarily mean they are a "top user". It could be 500 quality posts, or 500 yes and no posts, far...

jimbl75 I have another thought. Maybe how long you've been a member should have merit also. Anyone can spam 500 posts, that's going to happen. But maybe people that have been here over 30 days, or 45 days, I don't know what that number should be- AND they have over...

jimbl75 Thanks you! I think you understand what I am trying to say. The features sound good at first, but the more I browse myLot, the more I realize the new features may just be promoting quantity over quality. If someone is here to scam the system, it'll just...

jimbl75 True. My point is, there are many users that already have a user rating way over 500, and many of those users abused the sytem to get there. So the new features may help groom new users to understand how the system should be used, but it rewards those that...

jimbl75 Good post. You bring up something else that I forgot to talk about. Like I said, I believe in quality over quantity. Well, from time to time, I spend a good bit of time posting a quality reply, only to have the sytem bug out when I try to post it. In the...

jimbl75 Now that sounds awesome. I like the idea of being blocked having some weight to it. As long as it is still investigated, otherwise that could be abused and innocent people could be banned from myLot. If there was a way they could do it, I think that would...

jimbl75 I'm so sorry man. I had two feelers out there, one here and one on another forum I am a member of. I didn't realize that the first person to send me the invite would get me regardless of which e-mail I chose. Again, sorry about that! That's kind of strange...

jimbl75 Ok, thanks. I'm sending you an e-mail right now. But can you also answer the questions I had about ChaCha in my original post. My main concern is, is there an application and approval process even if I sign up through your invite? I just get this feeling I...
