Fitting In...

United States
May 25, 2016 8:56am CST
I recently wrote a post about how some one that was on another writing site was telling the readers how "BAD" myLot was and how they had been "abused" and how some one was posting videos, but when they posted videos, they couldn't.....blah, blah, blah.... Anyway, I was thinking (yeah, sometimes I do this ) that there are some sites that like people to write 1,000 or more words and have all these SEO (whatever that means) type of words that when people search for a word, if you have made a 1,000 word post and use that word, then their site will appear and they will make the "BIG" money and pay you pennies. I'm sure they LOVE to hear about experiences that will shut down their competition by people who eventually will do the same to that company. They'll find another site to go to and then "run" that other company down. Some people fit in to those types of situations. I feel I fit in to myLot!! MyLot is the place, kind of like "Cheers" every body knows you're name!! You don't have to write 1,000 word post and you don't have to use SEO words or whatever, we can just be ourselves!! Bubblews tried to be like myLot and I think some of us myLotters joined that site. But now that Bubblews burst their bubble, we can now return to myLot and it's still the same...same people and faces..that's where I fit in!! ~Peace~ photo courtesy of pixabay
I've said this about other writing sites before and now I'm confirming it. On another site that I am writing on there was a writer that is saying how they was...

The people who post how bad things are were usually the ones kicked off for breaking the rules.

I love mylot too, now that mylot is as it was before. I was at Bubblews for some time when mylot changed but although I never have earned so much money, I never had the kind of conversations I have here.

yes just exactly we fit in and everyone knows our name and they are glad we came, YOU are so right, we write what we want and we make friends and have fun as the beauty is we actually get paid for socializing and having fun.

Naysayers will always be around. They're the kind who look at a half-filled glass of water and only see the empty space. I prefer to be grateful for the water provided. Nothing wrong with more improvement in mylot as I believe the site's owners are continually trying to find through experimenting like the payout scheme recently. Kudos to them and more power to myLot!

I think most of us try to help newcomers fit in, and there are lots of newcomers. I believe you are right, some people spend their life going from site to site whining. MyLot does not pretend to be a "writing" site but is a social site that gives us a little incentive. I fit in, you fit in, and really, it is not that hard to fit in if we try.

You will always run across one or two people like that no matter what site you are on as they are so unhappy that they want everyone else to be unhappy along with them. I just ignore someone like that and go on about my business. I am happy here on mylot.

Actually I think it's pretty fair here and the ones who get into drama do it to themselves.

That's so wrong. No wonder Bubblews burst their bubbles and Mylot rocks.
