I'm Over It

I'm getting a little more used to the new format. I wouldn't say that I'm really there and fully over it, but I'm slowly getting there. I think I need a little more time.

No, because it's a lot more difficult to find interesting posts now and there are a few features I just don't like, such as the teeny tiny box for writing PMs. The interesting post page seems like it's always full of spam. I blocked the posters because I thought that would hide the posts, but I guess it doesn't work that way. I don't think I'll ever be completely over it, but I'll stick around for a while.

Hi Dawn! After playing around here (even if it was to just boo and hiss), I've gotten used to the format for the most part. In that sense, I am "over it". What I don't like is there is much less interaction here because of it. Discussions don't get much exposure - which means less responses overall. I can't find friends nor discussions easily like before - and it can be pretty darn frustrating. You're right, migration has taken place, so it's not so fun here anymore . . . and that part, I am not "over it". If I may say, it feels like everyone is trying to make that bubbly place work. It is a bit different, but I think people have big time motivation to be there (and the earnings are not too shabby which helps with the motivating factor). That site happened to be there at the right time - and it gave people hope when they most needed it - that perhaps have cooled some people down to get "over it" faster. Now there is almost no need to come back here, sadly. Today I got paid . . . my last earnings. They did keep their word on this part at least. I've had some time to cool down myself . . . so seeing this final earnings note from "old" myLot kind of made things "ok". Maybe I'm more over it than I think!

I think that if you understand how the reimagined MyLot works you can like it. I found a very interesting explanation of how now this site works on this link posted by Owlwings: how-to-use-mylot.blogspot.co.uk After reading it you'll be clear about the features here. Only this link won't bring back your friends, but who knows? :)

i told myself i'd join other sites only after mylot paid me. kind of like closure, you know. the separation or severance pay. while i was sleeping the paypal notification came and it's even a few cents higher than i expected, even though i got deletion notifications. it's still bittersweet, though. as i keep saying, it's really the format. if you don't have facebook or twitter, it will really confuse and frustrate you. you can't really cut yourself off immediately and completely. people's names, topics and conversations cross your mind now and then and you seek them out. whatever happened to this or that person? (even if they're not on your friends list) i remember this or that person saying something about this topic or site (again, even if they're not on your friends list). the problem is there are things you can do at the old mylot that you can't in the other sites because they are set up differently and the rules are also different.
