Are you on here merely to build up your cash stash..or do you try to help others as well.. Do you take time to read the replies to your discussions or do you say " o well, we arent getting paid to reply to all these ..so I won't take time" .. Are you here for yourself?? I try to respond to those who reply to my discussion..despite the fact that we only get paid to replying to only one reply. I like to get to know people ..their feelings and their needs..

I like to get to know people too but sometimes I have a poor memory for names and details. I know a few people here but not many as friends. I have many friends but not many friends that are really close friends;)+

I try to help everyone if I can. I really need a little more instructions on mylot as I really don't know how to do all this. I answer the ones that comes into my e-mail page. So if my friends are marked friends, they are answered, but I may not have all friends marked to where I get their letters.

I also reply to some of the replies that other users submit. It actually depends upon the reply because some of their responses are like, "Thank you!" I wouldn't spend my time replying on that kind of response. The money is good. It will be able to help me and my family. It is not a big amount but at least the money can help to buy food for a day of snack.

You are right, the money is not a lottery but it is enough for a snack, a sandwhich and maybe a gallon of milk;) I try to reply to people but sometimes the posts get to be very numerous;)+

Yes I do read other peoples discussion too, when they are intersting. Most of them are full of knowledge and someties you get answers to your problems too without even asking them as many of our problems are common problems and common interests. I never think that I should answer only those who have answered me. I answer what I feel like I can answer. I don't even have any referrals to help me and I hardly earn anything........but still I am here not for money but because it is a decent, helping , entertaining, informative etc etc.....site.

I do reply to all who have replied in my discussions but sometimes If I can't say anything, I sometimes just ignore and just give the + she/he deserves. Most of the time though I reply thanks and give them ratings + and also keep in mind what they recommend me to do. Most of the topics I post, I'm really interested on them so I come back and reply to those who have replied to me.

You sound like a very kind person! To give a plus even if you are not interested in responding is very noble of you. I bet that you have many friends already here on mylot. Take care now..good night;)+

Personally, I respond to others discussions to try and help them, and myself, and then I also Love to go in and read the replies to the Discussions that I have started and respond back to them, and then go and check out some of their discussions as well. I feel this is the Best way to help us all out, and learn about the many others here on myLot. Especially the ones you may have chosen to add to your personal Friends list as well.

I like to be here mostly to make friends. Since I joined I haven't had any money cashed, so actually this site site is not to be paid as fast as you want to. I do respond to the discussions and reply when I like the discussions.

I am in for me and to help and get to know others too. Of course the money I earn is for me. I need it for bills and stuff I dont make enough at my job sometimes and even a little money is great! But I also like to get to know others, help them out, pray for them, etc. I have a small list of prayer request I have heard from people on this site! Yeah I care for you! :)

I Like to take my time and read the discussions and also the responses, and I like to help whenever I can. The money is a good reason for us to be here, but since we are, I find that most of us, really do a good job of responding and commenting on each others posts. And in doing this we're helping both ourselves and the others which is a win win situation :) Sometimes we are actually able to help people not only to make money in here but also with our responses to their questions. I like that part and the opportunity to do so. All in all, it's a great place to be and people in general are very good in here.

At present I really have no specific reasons for being in Mylot. Initially, it was like, to earn some extra bucks. But now it has become,more, a passtime. And I must admit,that I do not voluntarily go forward to help anyone, but if I find that someone is asking for help and I can contribute to it, I do help them. Sometimes it is by answering their queries and sometimes by accepting their referrals for good sites.

in my opinion being totally involved in the site also involves helping as many people as you can. Generally i speak to my mylot friends through their discussions. Its a lovely forum to be engaged in. blessed be

I am not here to make money.. Actually, maybe i was at first but not anymore. I had about $100 in my paypla account, all the money mylot has paid me more or less. And I donated all of it to american idol gives back after watching that show,. I just felt so bad and felt that they have more use for the money than i will ever have. So, yeah - I do try to help the best way that I can - in mylot and outside mylot =)

I would prefer to help others. That is why I am responding to this discussion. There are a lot of people on here that need the revenue more than I. I try to answer everyone and add additional comments to discussions. But sometimes it is hard to keep track of hwat is going on with people I am familiar with.

I came into My Lot first and formost for company as much as anything, I am enjoying the community and being able to help others too. The cash earned by communicating, to me is just a bonus. Lynn-Marie

I always respond to responses to my discussions. I find that it's rude of people who don't to be honest. Even just an acknowledgment of the response would be nice. I know some people tend to get discouraged because they either have very few responses or too many lol. I personally got 129 responses to a discussion I started over a month back, and I managed to respond to most, if not all of them. That made me feel good about myself because I took the time and responded. I'm sure many of the members appreciated that. I have also responded to discussions from newbies asking for help and advice on how they can earn more. I figure we all deserve equal opportunity to earn here, and if we don't help others, how can we then expect help from them if we might need it?
