It's just getting on your nerves, why do you do it?!

You check in... who knows, perhaps today it will be different.
Eagerly you look around for a sign of what you hope to see. So far nothing different from the usual. You decide to grab a cup of coffee.
You sit down and ponder. You decide to get to work and you manage to get a few things done, but then... it lurks again. You get this eager feeling you need to check again... and again... and again. This may cost you a lot of earnings, because you know it's no use going there over and over again.
Still you do it and you don't know why...
Anyone else got this feeling about TASKS

Not me! I checked tasks on the day they were released and I've never checked back since. I don't have the time nor the interest to get involved with them, but hats off to all that do as I can see it being a great way for them to earn a few extra bucks here and there. I do keep checking the panda spanking interest for new discussions and activity though! Maybe this is my own version of what you're going through?

LOL, I didn't start this discussion in Panda Spanking for no reason; I have made the whole scenario a lot worse than it is. I was more eager to see what people would think reading the first paragraph; would they relate it to tasks or not?
Did they find the outcome suprising? I guess people have taking it to literarly, even though it is a panda spanking discussion. Thanks for replying .

It was kinda hard for me to be silly on this one! I guess I can blame my location today to some degree as I'm across town at the other office so it's all serious, serious. 
DAGNABBIT! I'm really gonna have to let loose on the insanity in the near future to try and make up for it!

Please don't think that, Riyasam! I read about a task that paid $3,00 and the person in question had to write about some very expensive pens. I don't think you have to be a rocketscientist to write a commercial talk about a pen? It's easy money and as far as I have read the tasks are also pretty easy (only hard to get!) .

It would certainly be useful if, on the tasks tab, there was a number (as there is on the Friends and the Messages tab) to show that there were tasks available. Perhaps this will happen in the future. I'm sure that MyLot have thought about it.

Sounds like a very good solution indeed, Owlwings.
I guess these are the bugs all new things have, and once they are settled (like the adding of pictures and photographs) it will be easier to use and people will know how to handle it. Thanks for responding.

I think those of us who were lucky enough to come across available tasks have flooded them with submissions and they're all having nervous breakdowns and reconsidering the wisdom of Tasks.
I'm certainly not holding my breath waiting, but I do check when I log in.

I agree, there seems to be no use in trying as all the tasks are gone anyway.
Too bad, as they were supposed to make mylot even more attractive, but instead people are just getting annoyed by the tasks not being available. I wonder if this feature will ever kick off.

I don't understant what happened with Tasks and Mylot.. no one is getting tasks to do as I know.. Hope to get some good responses and tasks from mylot so that we can increase our money and be able to reach minimum payout which is $10.
Happy Mylotting

I know that making payout is very doable without tasks, but I am curious to see how to work and what they ask of us. There is still so much we don't know about how these tasks work. I guess when a new update about tasks arrive we will know more, for now it's all a bit blurry.
