By that I don't mean someone who is crazy, but rather someone who is crazy about myLot....maybe just a little too crazy. Here are some definitive signs I've come up with. 1. You spend more time talking to family in discussions than face to face. 2. You rate your children's performance around the house with different colored stars. 3. You send a sympathy card to someone who has a discussion deleted. 4. If you are worried how a computer virus may affect your friendships. 5. If someone tells a joke at work and you respond by saying LMAO OR LMBO. 6. If your photo album has only avatars in it. 7. If you think starting a discussion about your health is getting a second opinion. 8. If you have ever threatened to minus a waitress for poor service. 9. If you place an ad in your local paper recognizing the fact of reaching 500 post. 10.You scan that ad into your computer cause now you can copy and paste it. 11.You pick out clothes to match your star color. 12.Your idea of success is to be ranked #1 in any category.

I carry a pad of paper, a pen and a voice recorder everywhere I go so that I can remember discussions, so I guess I am a Mylot Maniac too.

yep, that would definitely qualify as one of the signs and symptoms.

Thanks for responding, I have met a few since my short time here that I think would have a harder time finding one of those that didn't apply to them.

I admit freely Jer that I am a mylot Maniac, in fact we have a 12 step program , you might want to attend. Fair warning however all the members of this program have had severe failure rates.... Too funny jer LMAO

I think that I may just find my name on that 12 step failure list in the future sometime.

Don't worry, keep trying and you will get there. I am sure that you can find a role model around somewhere...eating donuts...and drinking catchup...while shooting people on video games...who will instruct you...as long as you don't want a donut or catchup.

I do love myLot! I have been here for a year already. Unfortunately, I can't spend that much time here because of my work. Though I love myLot that much, I would not really consider myself a myLot maniac. Well, at least, not just yet. LOL! I must admit though that myLot can really be addictive!

I do not call myself a mylot maniac, but I like mylot for more than one reason. I am here for the past 2 years or so and I have been posting discussions (so far more than 2000 topics introduced here) and responded to some 18,000 topics.Several hundreds of responses got washed out when they deleted someone's topic which were not adhering to the rules. Couple of months ago, I used to be here for more than 3 hours now I restrict to 30 to 45 mintues due to paucity of time. Mylot compared to other social networking site, is clearn, nice and interesting.

It is a nice place to be, though I haven't thought of it as a social networking site. To me it seems a little more than that.

I'd say that they may just be hopelessly lost to the mylot world.

Frankly speaking, I am quite addicted to mylot, but I am not the so called mylot maniac. I have neither the 12 definitive signs mentioned. You are great and have really applied the mylot ways to the real daily life. It is truly fantastic and amusing to have such creative idea.

I did get a kick out of reading these Mylot top 12. A couple of them I do and so does my daughter. She is a pink star and loves that star. I told her a couple days ago that she is in danger of seeing a green star and needs to find people to rate her work. She started posting quickly to fix her star. I'm a blue star and do wear blue sometimes.
