Some of my friends have noticed I have not been responding to their discussions, nor starting discussions of my own as I used to do. There's a good reason for this in my eyes. I have been losing points and earniongs each day and I have not been on all that much. It has gotten frustrating as hell here to respond and or start discussions without losing points and earnings. This has been going on with my account for a few weeks now. So that is why I have not really done a lot here as far as myLotting. I apologize for not being as good of a responding member as usual but this site has dragged me down with everything that's been happeniung for the past few weeks. Just wanted to explain a little here was all. Take care all. So have you gotten frustrated with myLot at all recently? And if so, why? HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

I thought you had a thaw and didn't have any ice crystals to post... I'm sorry you've been having trouble with mylot, I have once, early on, lost some points/$$ but I've become more discerning in the discussions I respond to.

I wondered what had happened to you as I hadn't seen anything on here for awhile. I have not had any problems with the site but I guess that others have been having some real problems with someone doing almost an identity theft on here and it has caused people to be banned. I don't know why we can't all get along and play fair. I am glad to see you here and I will look for more discussions from you.

I have heard a lot of complaining about that, have you found the reason for it? I just figured you were busy with your dad and granddaughter, sorry to hear the real reason for it!

Sounds as if you maybe got impersonated...they were targetting long time members. They were putting up same aviater and maybe slightly changing the spelling of the name so that unless you were looking for it you wouldn't notice. Then proceeding to just wreak havoc while making it look like that person. just come back. it seems calmer now.

Oh yeah, the same thing has been happening to me. And from what I've read from others on here, we're not alone. I did notice you hadn't been posting much and I wondered about that. It's nice to see more of your discussions. It does get discouraging when one puts such an effort into something, and the result isn't what we expect. Or deserve.

Yeah I usually post about 5 discussions every other day. But the past two weeks I may have started about 15 is all and responded very little as well. I am really getting tired of all these new friends requests from members that never respond at all to any of my discussions as well. But life goes on and so do I it seems. For now anyhow.

I recently found all my friends notifications turned off. I only noticed because I wasn't getting any emails to let me know my friends had started a disussion.

One guy posted a discussion about how he went to check his notifications, and all of them had been turned off. It happened to me a year ago. Maybe it was just him, but maybe that is one reason?

I totally understand. I myself have not been on that much lately to respond. I do read the discussions that do come in my email but I just have not been able to come up with anything of interest to say. Also my laptop has been acting up some and giving me fits and don't really care to go off in the other room to use the desktop.

I get the emails and reqad them all and have had things I wanted to respond/comment with. But the point and easrnings losses cause me to back off like I have recently. It's at the point almost where I care less about earning from here anymore. But I will continue none the less. Hope the PC straightens up for you soon. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

Hi Grandpa Bob! Yes, I do get frustrated with mylot once in awhile because what you have experienced, I have been experiencing also once in awhile. Sometimes, I really am at a loss why it is happening and it is not really inspiring to do more when you know that your points are falling without knowing sometimes why. Take care and have a great day! lovelots..faith

I was a bit frustrated too Grandpa Bob but then I got to thinking, to hell with the points and what ever I make is gravy because I love my friends here and don't want to part from them so I take what ever mylot throws my way and just throw it out and go on from there because my friends mean so much to me!

I try to do that as well. But when you make just 10 points in one day and the next day it shows as just 5 it is annoying to say the least. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

I think it is because of certain posts and discussions being deleted! I remember that from last year.

Well I noticed one day when I logged on, my earnings hadn't been updated from what I did the day before, usually its been updated by the time I log in the next day, finally two days later, it was updated. I've noticed some things are getting slow, I don't know why it happens. I haven't been on here that much in the past month, I didn't make payout last month, and I'm not too sure if I will this month, its just been slow for me, I think sometimes you can get burned out for awhile. Well I hope it all works out for you, I'd hate to see you leave...Have a good day

walijo, did you get anything for your Sunday postings? I haven't although they posted it for Monday.

Hi GRANDPA BOB, I have been there when I lost a lot of points and star ratings, felt someone was against me, but I just carried on, the way I see it is not to worry about points or earnings too much but just enjoy responding nd making discussions, just have fun with friends otherwise you will end up leaving mylot, just don't worry. I lost 83 points in a few days, that was few months ago and it was near payout time, its always happens round that time. Tamara

Well, I have not really seen my earnings decreasing this month. A couple of months ago I seen it happen and one of my referrals got so frustrated with this site that he is hardly active anymore due to a lot of his discussions being removed, so I am not sure what really is going on here. I do miss seeing you in here but do understand that sometimes there are other things going on. Personally I am always wishing you the Best and miss seeing you when you are not in here.

I'm afraid I've been totally gone from here for a while so I haven't kept up with whats going on. I have read other people's complaints though. They were pretty much the same as yours. I hope things turn around for us. So far this is the best money making site I've been on but I am looking at and joining a few more that were recommended.

Sorry you have been dealing with this. I don't spend a bunch of time at mylot as I once did. Hey I did make payout this month for the first time since last June or July. So I won't complain about that. I don't keep track of my points, so I wouldn't know if I lost any or not. If I spent more time here, I may keep a better eye on what they were everyday.

I'm kind of new here - but my ratings has gone down - I was marked 9(87/100) and the next day both my reputation in all subjects were way lower than the day before and I was only rated 6 (55/100) - the fact is that I hadn't even written anything the day before - so someone must have rated me negativly in all my comments or at least many of them. I think it's sad when it happens, but it's a thing that will happen here with this system. I hope your ratings and earnings will improve and that you'll get back here soon!

Hi Grandpa Bob! I was wondering what was going on with you. It isn't like you not to respond to your discussions. I wish all this stuff would stop already. I thought that it had. I don't understand how you could be losing points. It makes no sense. I don't blame you for being frustrated. I haven't been doing as much responding either. I have hardly been making any money here at all. I just haven't felt like working so hard lately. I hope things will settle down soon. I miss seeing you and hearing your wonderful responses. Take care of yourself. Your friend, Opal

I didn't make payout last month due to thie frustration. That is only the 2nd time in 3 years I've missed payout. The first was my very first month. So this has affected me. I have made payout this month though. But as of late the fun seems to be subsiding somewaht for me on myLot. It's just not the same anymore really. The past 2 months have been the worst here I feel since I joined nearly 3 years ago. Oh well, who knows if and when it will change. And who knows if I ever will be the same old me as far as myLotting goes. It's just not as fun as it used to be for me is all. Thanks. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~
