I just logged out for a while but when I got back my earnings went up by 4 cents then after I refreshed it became $4 after a minute it went down again! and went up again! Is it a good thing or a bad thing? I'm scared it might go down a lot! The same thing's happening to my cousin it goes up and down! who else is experiencing this?

May be its because you are not satisfying the mylot guidelines. Even then do not worry. Try and be honest as much as possible. Dont worry about the earnings, try to enjoy here and you will finally end up with big bucks. Try it once.

Dont worry about your earnings. Try to reach your minimum payout. Even though your earnings are not stable, dont worry it happens to so many as mylot has got over more than 1 lakh people and managing all accounts might lead to some little mistakes.

Hummm, I don't know if this has happened to me. I don't pay much attention to the money thing on here. I look when I come in and see more sometimes. In fact don't even know if I'll be able to collect any of it. I don't have pay-pal. I use to and they let someone get my info and order things. They still charge me $10 or more a month for things I do not get. I asked them to close my account and take out all of my information a few years ago. They say they have, but they have not. I do not want to use them and refuse to because of this mistake. As far as I know it's the only way of getting paid here. I's all I see people talk about.

I don't use pay pal. I signed up for it years ago to use in ebay. If I bought something. But they let my info get out someone bought a cell phone for $500 and other things on my account. The things went to California. I have not used the account and have tried to get it closed completely. They just will not do it. What do you use? I prefer getting a check in the mail. All of the things I do online that only uses pay-pal I figured when I got enough money I'd give it to charity.

I can't remember what I use, my cousins the one who usually handles those things for me, i think it's called moneybooker, i'm just not sure if it's any better.. and it's really nice of you to care for charity and think of giving them donations, we only do that on christmas.

it would be bad to spend more than what you actually earn from it! as for me i use something else that's not paypal.

well, i also experience that sometimes and i didn't really care so much about it... as much as i still get paid, i don't mind if it is a few cents down or up... usually that happens nearing payment time... and usually when that happens, the next day or two we will receive the money which is really nice... take care and have a nice day...

well the discussions that you might be posting in or have started is against mylot's guidelines so thats why your earnings got less. my post count was decreased but i did not really notice my earnings that time.

Weird, mine only changes once a day. I've never heard of it fluxing throughout the day.

if you ever start experiencing it, most say it's normal and you'll never know it might even go up for you if it happens!

..it happens when someone's discussion gets deleted whose discussion you responded to.. I suppose it goes down more if a discussion of one's own is deleted that has a lot of responses... Mine went up four cents yesterday too..(?)

I think Mylot is just making some adhustments. As long as your earnings do not go way down, you should be okay. Mine adjusts up and down all of the time. It usually evens back out though. Just be careful as to not post any spam or respond to anyone who posts referral links or spam and your earnings should be fine. Mylot makes adjustments monthly though as they see fit.

The main update is every 24 hours roughly but throughout the day administration is working deleting bad posts and redistributing the money to the good posts. It's usually not very noticeable but at the end of the month they seem to be the most active with this which is why we'll see a difference of several cents up and down. If you know you have basically followed the rules in your posts and haven't responded to too many 'bad' posts then you doubtfully will see it "go down a lot", so there's nothing to be scared of! We all experience it, it's just more noticeable for some.

thanks! i would never have known that! it's normal after all!
30 May 08
I do! but i'm not really complaining since everything's increasing and not doing the opposite... :D Is there a FAQ thread somewhere so you can ask this thing to the admin?
• Philippines

sorry! i don't know what the heck that is! and me too! mine's been increasing!

hi. I have been experiencing it 3 hours ago. My earnings went down a few cents then went up again.. I hope too that it won't go down anymore coz I'm near payout and I might not make it in time if this will happen again...
• Philippines

everyone else said it's normal they said it happens by the end of the month! so you don't have to worry about it! and it would be good if it stayed up!
• United States

I think thats because of your posts..either due to ur quality posts or bad posts..
• Philippines

most people said it was normal so if this happens to you don't worry to much about it!

that wasn't a nice news at all. why was mylot unstable of the earnings? good thing i noticed my earning was not getting lower. so far i haven't been experiencing any unusual thing with my account. i hope mylot would do something about it before it becomes worse.

look like today most of myLot members here experience this. I just answered a discussion similar to this. I also had my earning up and down today. But afte being here for five weeks, usually I never got cheated by myLot except if they deleted a post or topic that had my post in it.
• Philippines
30 May 08
yeah! i just noticed other discussions almost exactly the same!
• China
31 May 08
wow that's cool ,just for me !'cause i just have 0.24$ maybe there are some problem with the moylot system .

How do you know how much you've earned recently? Don't the earnings get updated every 24 hours or so(or am I missing something here)? Anyway, I heard it's because mylot decreases the earnings of people who post generally low quality posts and gives it to the majority of members who make better posts. So I guess it's a good thing if you are more earnings :) ---- another public announcement by psychopath
