I noticed that my earnings are getting less and less. Like yesterday I made more posts then I ever had in one day and my eanings were still smaller then the last day. My responces are usually 3-6 lines long.

Sometimes a discussion you were involved in has been adjusted based on the content so it can drop your amount. I think this happens to most people. Normally when it happens to me it's just a few cents and I don't even notice it but sometimes it can happen that a number of the discussion I have been in get slapped and I see my amount drop enough for me to notice. I try to stay in good discussion because sometimes stating your opinion just costs you too much.

So if people dont like your argument, you get paid less?

No that's not quite what I meant. I was meaning that if MyLot feels a discussion is not good for their site and the search engines they like to discourage people from topics like that. So they give penalties by lower income and even lowering your star value. Mine used to be a 10 but now it's a 9 and has been for about a year.
