Do you think mylot should send us notifications when mylot tasks are available? Everytime I click on to the tasks there is nothing available for me.

Hi! Mayka! Yes, those who are interested in mylot tasks should receive its notifications. You can suggest this idea to mylot and can write to them. I have not tried mylot due to lack of time, yet I feel notifications will surely help.

I have no idea how the tasks are searched and acted upon. Those who do it can throw some better light. I do not feel like trying it.

I too have not tried these mylot tasks. Hardly get time nowadays to finish the discussions that are here. But out of curiosity whenever I have looked at the tasks I have not found anything available. I wonder when these tasks are posted here and when mylotters finish them.

Hello mayka...its a good thing you started a discussion after a long interval......atleast it gives us an opportunity to interact...... Well as far as mylot tasks are concerned I have not attempted any so far....But from the comments of fellow mylottians I have come to understand that introduction of mylot tasks is not going the way it was expected.Also the person Sharon Bucks who was monitoring the mylot tasks has been added as our friend by mlyot admin.....So I suppose mylot is planning a different approach ..lets wait and watch and hope for the best....Good luck to all of us.....

I guess I am guilty of not been too active on the net for the last two/ three months. Very busy in office....in fact for a few days I was carrying the laptop home and burning the midnight oil!!! My boss has taken a new retail garment shop and we are busy preparing for the opening in June..... I have not attempted any tasks so far...in fact I have not found any tasks availble .... Lets wait and see what new mylot is offering us.

Hi mayka....There is no need for you to feel guilty about not being able to spent time at mylot........Infact for the past few weeks I too do not mylot regulary as I used to ,even though I have no boss to keep me away from myltotting....Its just that I find it boring......he..he.. Any way though you have to work harder now,and have less free time,I guess you have to be thankful for this.For in this time of recession when most people are finding themselves kicked out of their jobs withut any warning,the very fact that your boss is starting a new show room is a welcome and positive side for you..........So good luck to you.....

I think that would be useful for people who are interested in Tasks. There should also be an option to put it OFF and ON to suit to the user's preference. I haven't been really into tasks but I think its a cool feature and getting notification would be helpful. Thanks.

I too have not tried these tasks but have read a lot of discussions about mylotters finishing some tasks. For those interested it would be nice if they could recieve notifications.

Yeah mayka, so far there are no notifications sent to us when new ranges of tasks are available. I notice that tasks are mostly available in the wee hours in my place. This is my sleep time and of course I won’t accept any, even if I have received the notification. I hope mylot will deliver the tasks in batches according to the regions in different time zones respectively. Happy posting

I too have not seen a single task available till date. May be because of the timings here. I am not even sure of what kind of tasks are being given here. The notifications could be useful for those interested in these tasks.

Yeah, that would be a great idea. But I think it will be a tedious affair since most of the tasks would be gone because there would already be lots of members accepting them. If ever they do send notifications, when the member follows the link to do those tasks it would just show no available tasks. Ill add a suggestion to your suggestion. It would be nice if they send email notifications when there are at least 25 tasks available and those have lots of slots to be filled up on. That would be really worth all of our troubles.^_^

Your suggestion is also good. They should have more slots to be filled up on. That way we will get a chance to earn more.

yeah, more members would be able to get a chance at those tasks, if ever they are interested in. Ive heard from a lot of people who would love to try them but they always see 'no available tasks'..

I really don't think it would be helpful to send notifications about tasks. Tasks are posted at all different times of day so, by the time some people would read the notification or alert, it would be likely that the tasks could already be taken - so it would result in the same thing as looking at the "available" tab and finding nothing listed. There are only so many spots available for each task and they do seem to get accepted very quickly. I think sending notifications might just make people even more frustrated by getting "reminders" that they missed out on the opportunities :\

Well, I will agree with you too as well. Imagine that you have received an e-mail alert 5 minutes ago about a task available, but when you check the section, the task is gone. I don't really think this is a good idea, as it may result in more being frustrated that you are not able to get one. For me, I rather check the tasks section when I'm free to do the tasks. In that case, you will know that you will be able to handle the tasks and not having to forfeit it when you could not finish. I believe that will be better as well, so that you do not take away other people's chance of being able to accept the task.

Yup, I am quite disappointed for this month that there is less tasks available for grabs. I think they just don't have available and even though they have opened the tasks for all members to submit it seemed to me like there is no one interested submitting tasks in there. Well what can we do if they have all the tasks completed already. Let us just wait and see what happens. When it comes to notifying us when tasks are available is actually a good idea but I think that depends too on how often are you going to open you email and if it times that there are many who take it most likely you might also lost the opportunity of taking one task.

Yeah I agree with you, I was even wondering when they say that it they created "enhancement" with the tasks but apparently, I wasn't able to find one the last time it was changed. Notifications is a good suggestion, but sometimes tasks just flash in a minute then all you found out the next time you logged in it was all gone, perhaps this could be the reason why many mylotters couldn't be able to participate in doing the tasks.

Yes, you are correct mylot must sent a notification message or something when tasks are available because I have many times saw that no tasks available to me. I have missed many tasks.It is frustrating to see but mylot can solve our problem.

Yes, mayka, nice idea. I really think myLot should send us a notification at least on our e-mails whenever a new task is available. I'm just like everyone else too. No tasks are available every time I check the Tasks section.

That would be great!..Nice Idea, Sometimes we forgot to check the task section. Notifications would be a great one.. I hope the mylot admin would take effort to check this discussion and think of ways to address our concerns..^_^

Yeah, I think they should...it is very upsetting to see no task available. Doing tasks is the best way to earn here fast...I hope there will be more tasks available soon..anyway, keep mylotting! Have a nice day!

I think it would be beneficial if they could notify us because every time I check there is nothing there and at first I thought I was just too slow. We need more tasks!

I supposed if people wanted them that would be a nice feature. Personally I've looked at a couple of them and figured the money they offer no way is worth the work involved. I'm just going to stick with responding to discussions to earn on myLot.

This would be helpful, maybe they could just get the tab to pulse. They get the banners to do that. I don't know how much trouble that would be.

I wish we could get some kind of notifications that there are tasks available. I also wish we could get them evaluated everyday. I have so many pending now that it takes away from trying to do anymore. Some days we don't get any tasks and don't get them approved. It's like where do I go from here?
