Hi all. Mylot has used the blue unlined links in our discussions and responses for only a short time, but has your own NAME ever showed up as one of those advertising links??? I just responded to a discussion and that is what happened...my name is now an advertising link! What strange or odd things have happened to you on Mylot...things that surprised you or maybe gave you some concern? Here is where my name is blue and underlined... http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/2173133.aspx?p=3#1_12465617

Famous as opposed to infamous?? LOL. No, to my knowledge there's no discussion on me, (whew, I embarrass easily!) but I do have a lot of articles and several blogs online. Too bad it didn't link to those, yes? Thank you for responding, Solared :) Karen

That seems strange, do we now call you PeacefulWmn in blue? That's kind of neat.

Hi Pat. It was the "Karen" that was underlined, but since blue IS a peaceful color and one of my favorites, you're right, that would be cool. Have a great afternoon. Karen

Hi Karen! While going through your discussion, I could not guess the link quoted in your discussion belongs to 'my' discussion. I opened the same and first commented on your response, thereafter I tried to see blue underlines against your name, there were none.. It appears that it might have happened inadvertently or temporarily. Nothing to worry, anything is possible in today's world. I must thank you for quoting my discussion's link, because it has increased number of 'visitors' to my discussion and thus more responses. Have a great day! Deepak

Yes, Deepak, I see that they have now removed the link. There was one in this discussion on Diana's name, too, which has also been removed. I am glad of that! LOL, happy to have quoted your discussion :))) Have a great day, my friend. Karen

well, this has never happened to me before. you are so fortunate! lol. i guess the only thing worth noting that happened to me was that i once made 70 cents out of nowhere! i have no idea where it came from but it brought me that much closer to payout that month!

Hi Cher. Yes, I guess it's special?? LOL. I checked back and it's gone now, so I guess I'm the disappearing blue woman?? Hm, I sometimes have a few additional cents added or removed and don't really know why either. Strange :) Karen

Wow! it is unusual. Well what i can at the moment think of, is that sometimes it has happened to me that I have posted a response then it takes like forever to load. I copy the text in ms word, and hit the refresh button. Now the entire text which I have entered in the mylot page is erased and I have to re-type it again. To my horror what I find is that my response has been entered twice. Its a bit embarrassing I guess.

Hi Bodhisatya. Ugh, I've had that happen a number of times. Frustrating, yes? The link has been removed, and I am glad for that. I hope you're enjoying your day. Karen

I wouldn't worry about it. Your name is blue right now while I am typing this response. Perhaps myLot is experimenting.

hi peacefulwmn9i arrgh arrgh arrgh. I accidentally hit a blue wavey line on my own user name and was taken to a site selling life insurance,arrgh arrgh. I had to go back to firefox and get back on mylot all because of the dumb blue line that went through my user name, guess what,it was hatley insurance yuck. we have no relatives in that area.so that hatley has no bearing on my husband's family. all that crap and I had to get back on mylot the long way round. this is not the only time, I was writing a response and my browser bumped a blue line and the screen filled with so and so's dating service. when I got back to do my response, naturally my response had flew the coop. so had to do it all over again. I detest these blue underline things.

Hello my friend. Yes, they did, and I am happy for it. It just made me feel disconcerted for some reason. Perhaps because some of the links lead to very unsavory sites! Have a nice day, and thank you for responding. Karen
