which earns more ? starting a discussion or responses ?

How we earn and what we are paid no-one knows. It is all very individual depending on quality content. The only way to find out is to experiment yourself. What I earn is not what someone else is earning as we are all different in the way we contribute here. Some users reach payout after one month and very few poats while others are here for years with thousands of posts and have never been paid yet. Trial and error and you will discover what works best for you. Good luck and happy Lotting!

I wonder if there is a scheme that Mylot uses to pay out. Or if it is just humans deciding how much it is worth...

Actually I don't really know! Sometimes I have a feeling that it's posting a discussion and sometimes I do fine with just replying discussions. So I really can't tell! *laughs* But I guess as long as it's good quality post, it will earn us something *smiles*.

Well it depends if you can get a lot of people to respond to your discussion then I would say making discussions but if only a few people respond then I say responding to discussions make more depending on how much your post is if its long it would deffintley make more then making a discussion.

I really think that the payment on the discussion and response depends on the quality of it. If the quality of the discussion is not good, then you may not earn any cents from it. That goes for the response. Anyways, do not concentrate on how much each discussion or each response will pay you. Just post a discussion or responses that you want to post.
