I registered this website at about three years ago,and responsed to some discussions and got some earning at that time. For some reason,I didn't login the website from then on, now I have enough time to do this thing ,when I login again,I found my earning has gone. My mainly purpose to join this website is to improve my English,I like my friends and have fun to talk with them.how much earning is secondary. Can you tell me what's reason? any tips! expecting your response.thanks in advance.

Simple. Read this: http://www.mylot.com/o/faq/faq6.aspx#21 It has always been part of Terms of MyLot that if you don't log in for 90 days, you will forfeit your earnings. Hard luck! I doubt, anyway, (judging by your User Rating) that you had earned more than a few cents. Start posting again, now you have the time, and you will soon earn that and more.

melohype, everyone here has to abide by the same Terms. It is not a matter of 'trying it with you' (where ever you are from). It is one of the conditions which you agreed to by signing up with MyLot. When you signed up, you had to check a box saying that you had read and agreed to the Terms. It doesn't matter whether you read them or not, they are still what you agreed to and MyLot expect you to accept that they will keep their end of the bargain if you keep yours.

Hi wqdayang, It's all explained here in the FAQ section. Basically if a myLot member does not log into their account at least once in each 90 day period, they will lose all earnings accumulated thus far. IrishGal77 :)

I'm sure you'll earn more than what you've lost. So don't leave too long again k?

Every three months you must log in to the site and participate to keep your earnings. Read the faq's and guidelines as a refresher.

That's right,I'm careless and always make mistaks. Three months is such a long time,I think I could have some time to refresh the discussions and will not make such a foolish mistake.

Your earnings only will be reserved for three months, I think.

All the replies so far have told you the reason so I won't dwell on that. I will say I am glad to welcome an intelligent young lady back who is here for the fine purpose of learning a language and making friends. I am a member mainly to be able to converse with people from all over the world like yourself. I don't have a lot of time to participate here, so the earnings are secondary to me, also. I hope we get to participate in future discussions together.

I had this happen to me too. But in my case I had like a dollar on my account when it got wiped. When I quit I figured I would never come back. That was a while ago and I wasn't very interested in MyLot. But then all of a sudden I came back for some reason, lol. Then I quit again, but this time I decided not to forfeit my earnings and log on regularly even if I didn't post anymore. If you do decide to leave the site, it wouldn't hurt to check in every once in a while. You only need to log on every 90 days so it shouldn't be any hassle.

Hi Wqdayang! If you leave the site site for long time your earnings will be deleted. It's all written here: http://www.mylot.com/o/faq/faq6.aspx#21 In any site of this type you need to be active in order to keep your credit. There are even some sites that cancel your account for a shorter period of inactivity. So start again writing and to post discussions so your balance will grow up again!

Hi there wqdayang, Well according to the guidelines and also from our resident senior lotters any inactivity that goes beyond 90 days, will mean forfeiture of any earning here in mylot, so i guess that is what happened and it really has been a while since you've been away, so that is the reason, anyway welcome back.
