What's wrong with mylot ?

Philippines
May 24, 2009 4:57am CST
I don't care if the admin would delete this post, I am just so disappointed ! Last week my earnings was two dollars and some cents, but the next time I checked in it turn out that I just have forty five cents, yes, you hear me right, what in the world has happened ? I mean if they deleted discussions and responses.... hey, that's just too much. Another thing, I started a discussion which couple of friends do make an effort of responding, why in the world I wasnt paid a dime with the responses, has anything going on here ? Sorry for all of this rant, just can't help it.... Have any of you guys went through this ? Isnt just being NOT fair ?

Firstly, unless YOU comment on the responses you will not earn. We are paid for our own activity and not the activity of others. If you receive 100 responses but do not comment back your earnings will not increase. Those who post the responses will be rewarded for their own efforts. Many discussions and responses were deleted during this last week. The users however cannot help out and you should contact mmyLot using the 'contact' link at the bottom of the page if you want info regarding any deductions made to your earnings.

If you are starting or responding on discussions which are violating the Guidelines then they get deleted and cause loss of earnings if they have already been added. Be aware of which dicussions should be avoided by checking the Guidelines often. http://www.mylot.com/o/guidelines.aspx

I see a lot of these type of posts lately! I have no idea what's going on, though. I do know that if your friend responded with something like "I know what you mean, I feel the same way" that response wouldn't count because it contributed nothing but agreement. They are very picky here. It's like being a guest at a party where the rules aren't really clear, you're told you'll pick them up quickly only to find yourself denied at the buffet because you've violated the rules. What rules? Well, you'll find out as you hang around longer...

Oh! really? that is too much. Perhaps it was some task payment that got withdrawn or something? Well, knocking off a few cents is forgivable but dollars..? Hmm, maybe you should contact them still. Ask them what happened to your earnings, they just might have a good explanation or maybe its just a glitch. Ive had some decrease in my post count lately and Im not sure which discussions are those. Ive only been responding to those discussions that I think are 'safe' from being deleted. Anyway, I dont mind the decrease in post count as long as the earnings are untouched. I do hope that the admins have an explanation for you and I really do hope you get it back.

Hey, try to keep cool. Its already a good way that you're expressing your frustration. Have you sent them mail yet? I think we're all having slow earnings, even though Ive been very active this past week, my earnings this month compared to last year are halved. Its probably due to the ever growing community and upgrades.. Just try and keep calm. Why not take a 20 minute coffee/iced tea break and then come back..?

Wow! That's quite a big jump from $2 to 45 cents! That is worth 5 days to 1 week worth of myLotting! That's a lot of effort gone down the drain. Well i've lost as much as 12 cents before but never more than a dollar. That's just too much. I don't think that's fair at all. There could be some glitch or something. Have you tried contacting the admin? I also have my days where my earnings didn't refresh but i got used to it already. Right now, i don't think by efforts are worth what i'm earning daily compared before. I think it has something to do with the increasing myLot population where the accumulated earnings are divided.

That makes sense actually perhaps that might explain as well, there are a lot of possibilities though, appreciate mod for giving options of possibilities, why things happen.

Well, this has happened to me a long time back. I mean, just after I joined here. I responded to discussions which were sure to be deleted. So sorry, I am responding here too... Anyway, first read guidelines and faq. Don't respond to discussions that violate it. And as for the responses, you never get paid for others responses. You must comment back for earning. regards, Ajith.

Have a question about 'Payout' ( anyone can answer). It's been a long time since I've been on here. Do we get paid for responding to discussions, answering them, etc.? I started on My Lots (agin) last night and I don't see any earnings, yet. Can someone help me out?

Freak, ok I offered to advise you with some tips but it was YOU who decide to make use of it. I try and advise many of the new users to get on the right track. Those that stop nad listen go far but it is their own efforts that make it work. All I do is contribute some of my time to what I consider a worthy cause which can benefit us all in most cases. Thank goodness my time is usually aimed in the right directions

I haven't been on in a few days so I haven't made much but I haven't seena decrease though either. I am sorry that this happened and maybe it was a glitch and it will be fixed. I am hoping that is all it was. Maybe you should contact them if you can about it.

I would write to mylot.. I had disappeared for some time due to the fact that my discussions were disappear.. I think that it was a moderator who deleted this. They have people they pay monthly to oversee the posts.. and sometimes I think some delete a little too much. Good luck in getting the money you deserve.

Last month the same thing happened with me torcha! I lost around 2 dollars without any reason! I think, mylot should be little more transparent when doing these things. Why can they intimate us with the reasons. Many times we have no clue at all!

I kinda noticed the same thing. I have been active this week but my earnings haven't changed. I hope it's just a delay.

I'm sorry to hear this happened = that's a horribly big drop at one time. I've lost a few cents here and there when a discussion was deleted but never anything like this. Have you tried asking admin about it? Possibly it was an error or 'glitch' in the system.

I hope this is just a glitch.. Lets just check this in the next days.

A while ago I think notice that my number of posts had gone down. I couldn't understand why and it took me a couple of days to get back to my number of posts that I had on the previous day. I really love My Lot and am careful not to violate the rules. I think it is strange that your earnings decreased so much. I hope you find out why. Good luck.

That is discouraging! Imagine you spent time and effort and your earnings were taken away without you even knowing why.Tsk!Tsk!Tsk! This is probably one of the reasons why many users of mylot have been losing interest with mylot. I myself has been losing interest because of lack of good topics aside from lack of time on my part. But more than this if I see my earnings being deducted then that will really make me lose interest all the more.

Actually, we can't really make good money here at mylot, not unless you have large number of active referrals. But without active numbers of referrals mylot will not give you good earnings. You can consume all your whole day here and the most you could earn is up to 1 dollar of even luckier up to 2 dollars. Of course we can't consider that good earnings. Nevertheless, there is one benefit mylot could give. You can gain good friends here!

It is very discouraging indeed, I have observed that as well maam, topics are monotonous and almost always the same. Just like you, the thing that encourages me are few good friends.

Hello torchablazed!!! Well I hear this kind of things again and again in the discussions. Till today, I haven't face such vast difference of loss. Only sometimes there is fluctuation of two or three cents that may increase or decrease. One primary reason for falling so much of the income can be the deletion of the whole thread you started. Mostly we keep posting more in our own thread and the thread would be of much worth. But if its got deleted then our earning are also surely gone. May be that was the case. Mylot is strict in the terms and conditions. If they find any wrong with the postings, then they surely delete them. Till now, I haven't went through this kind of situation.

I understand that nzalheart, but my case of two dollars loss was very disappointing. Thanks for your response though.

This doesn't sound healthy. Why do mylot deduct hard earned money here indiscriminately? Everyone knows well it is not easy to earn mylot money and the little money we earned when taken away is unfair without any valid explanations. I can feel your disappointment as I too have encountered such experiences. Our time invested in mylotting is not worth it if we are being penalized in such a manner.

Hi torch, am not sure how myLot works all the earnings out, so really cant help you on this one..the only thing I do know is that if you have responded to a discussion and it gets deleted then you lose earnings, but guess you must know that yourself..but losing that amount of money does sound ridiculous...LoLo

Their accounting showed that five and change at the end of April, then May starts I lose three dollars. Not sure why, never got an explanation. It is a lot of work to post on this site but I do it to keep me thinking, gives me new idea and different viewpoint. However it works two ways to earn money on this site. My problem is why would you want to be someone's friend yet many of you do not respond to discussions.
