I have seen many discussion about Mylot and they say all good things about the site and how people have been using the site for a long time now.. Everyone here have their own way of saying what they like but Is there any thing that people don't like about this site... for me I have been using the site for a year now and I am happy with it.. I learned so much about online earning here.. and also have improved my typing speed.. But still I think the unpredictability of our earning here is some thing that I don't like.. I mean we cannot be sure that we will earn X amount if we make Y number of discussion or respond to Z number of discussion.. What about you...is there any thing that you don't like about mylot...

If you enjoy discussion for its own sake and the aspects of learning, making friends and improving one's typing speed and English, then the earnings become secondary and more like a bonus. I joined MyLot, I think, about six months after it opened and, since I had previously been an avid member of Yahoo Answers, I already knew the benefits of sharing knowledge and writing good quality responses. Over the years, I have come to realise that MyLot's unique earning scheme is very fair and really does encourage good quality input. I do not have a problem with its unpredictability. Perhaps, when you have been here a little longer, you will also find that the earnings, while nice to have, are not the main reason for your being here.

You cannot know how it is calculated. That is proprietary and restricted information. Any discussion about it is forbidden, though you can read through the FAQs and gain some idea of what factors are involved.

Hi Owlwings You make your point very clearly... Earning was the reason I joined mylot but I soon realize that there is more valuable things here than earning and since then I have paid very little attention to the earning on mylot... The reason of starting the discussion was more out of curiosity and less of the disappointment.. I have been happy with my earnings here.. I too its fair but just wanted to know how it is calculated..

I choose the discussion to respond.. I just don't respond to any discussion.. Some discussions are violating the rules of Mylot so I prefer not to respond or just inform the discussion creator about the rules.. even then I still find some of the discussions to which I have responded getting deleted.. Can't do much as it is about the quality and rules here...

No, I do not have any gripes. When I join a site I accept the Terms and Conditions, so I do not see any reason to raise questions about the TOS. IF you analyse the posts that you have made you may get a fair idea what brings in the money, so you can have a fair idea on how much you will be compensated for your participation.

I accepted to the terms too.. I know that mylot has mentioned about it in the terms and conditions but I just wanted to advice that a specific amount would help us.

Well, so far I've got no big problem about Mylot. But, only sometimes, just sometimes, and I speak about this with full understanding, that some topics consist only one or two sentences as if the poster only want to chase the quantity, not quality. Some people also mistype a lot, and sometimes it makes me confuse of what the idea they actually want to say. Again, with my full understanding that not only people with native English join hre, but from another country which do not use English as their primary language (Including my country). Keep up Mylot and all of its members!

I agree with you.. some times the wrong spelling and incorrect grammar is a cause of problem in understanding the discussion topic.. but this has to be ignored due to the wide rage of people here..

Hi there, i am old member of mylot, i like mylot in the sense that its easy to work here. You earn money by just doing things that you already doing. I mean this is like chatting but the thing is that we earned for that. But i have the same complain as yours, i just hope that how we earn here was publicist. I mean how we earn, how exactly we earn if we post this particular numbers, =)

Exactly what I mean.. I like the site too.. I enjoy earning and discussing here... But if see, people have given a good and impressive explanation for this.. like 1) it has an element of surprise and 2) that it helps to keep the quality of the discussion..

I am really new to myLot..less than a week guys! :-) Well, I stumbled upon this site because I am searching for online earning money. I am still not sure what myLot can offer me but by now I just take myLot as a way foe me to improve my writing in English. But I really want to know how I can make more money in myLot...not to say that I am greedy about money..but money is exciting to have hehehe

Mylot is certainly a good way for improving your English.. continue responding to the discussions and try to be grammatically correct.. it also helps to improve the typing skills... Earning comes as bonus here... use the search-bar here for more earning and try to add images to the discussions which will also help.. You will discover others ways of earning from internet..

I agree with you that I don't like the unpredictability of earnings. I would like to know if I spend five hours on here I will earn a set amount of money. But then again sometimes that is part of the excitement of the site. I like to come on each day and check my earnings after they have been updated. Sometimes I am pleasantly surprised when I see my earnings.

That is called thinking positive.. Nice way of keeping yourself motivated.. and mylot has never disappointed me when I look at the updated earnings.. I think it's pays a fair amount for the time I spent.. Keep up the positive thinking..

I am a member of 3 months. Lately, I have no time to go and write regularly, as it was in the beginning.I really like this missing. Quite often I was still surprised and uncomfortable,and vice versa. But it is his charm:) I am a little disappointed that lately so I do not find interesting topics such as before and it takes me time to look really valuable discussion in which to turn. But this is the problem of the site. This site is great :)

sometimes it happens that you don't find the discussions that is interesting to you.. for this what you can do is keep a good list of my interest ... it should only include topics which you are interested in.. also check the friends discussions who has a similar interest..

uhhmmm... maybe what I don't like is too much duplication of thread and topics... there's just too much repetition going around, I'd love to trim them down so that we could discuss things more. would you all agree?

I agree with you Markusgrejaldo Mylot also has consider this situation and deletes any duplicate discussion that people create.. Personally I don't comment on discussions I see are common.. There are many discussions with new topics that are created every day...

hi sumanadep I like it that they dont just give everyone x money for this and x money for that as the quality of the posts would deteriorate at once as so many here just for the money would make 40 discussions a day about nothing and get paid for it while others who made fewer discussions that were quality would not get the recognition they desevre. this way mylot does keep our postings to a higher standard as we are not able to know how much for each and every thing so we dont just dash off a lot of junk and still get paid for it.

Hey I don't understand that why u don't like mylot. But I like mylot very much. Because mylot is one of the great site and here I can earn a great amount every day by starting discussion and giving response to much discussion. I think we also improve our thinking and writing skills in this site. So I always work on this site.

Agree, the lack on earning is the one thing that i don't like about mylot. IF we could understand the earning system. I think it'll imporve mylotters opinion that way we can know what to do, or how to do it concerning earning from this site. .................................................. but everything is a secrete. how to contact the admin is a secret, how much we earn and how its all put together is all unknowned.

I won't compare Mylot with any other site.. Mylot is a unique site.. It has it's own standard...
