What is the reason you use mylot? Is it lonliness that drives you to use mylot? Entertainment or even the search for like-minded people? Or is it as simple as money?

I first started coming to MyLot because it was a paid site. But after just a few weeks I didn't care about that. I jsut like the discussions and it helps me unwind and de-stress at the end of a long day.

I do, too. the getting paid is an added bonus for me, but i enjoy talking to people also, and seeing different viewpoints expressed and different ideas that i might never have thought of.

Don't get me wrong. The money is nice. Even though it is just pennies that add up like saving them in one's penny jar. But the point is, it adds up. So yes, that drew me to myLot. But it was also because I was lonely. I was searching for a discussion forum to talk to people. Since that was my partner's idea to find people to talk to online to help me not feel so isolated. I found myLot and it would give me the interaction I was wanting while also earning the pennies that I can use. :) Honestly, I did not think I would be around this long. In the past I have joined groups...it would last a couple weeks...maybe a month...then I would get bored or offended by someone being a butt and I would quit. I do not like conflict or being attacked. So, it was easy to walk away from them. But now I have developed friendship here. And my best friend/sister is on here...so when I get attacked, I also get backed up and encouraged to continue. So, if it were not for her and other friend helping me stay here...I would have left the first month I was here. So, Thank You to all my friends that have made myLot a great experience!!! Including you, ljcapps. :)

thank you tia! You've helped make my time on mylot more enjoyable also. When you first start on this site, it's hard. LOL a friend was going through my back discussions and answering the ones that had no responses from, i don't know, five months ago when i started, or four months, and i laugh. You really have to be kind of dedicated to this site to stick with it until you've found some good people on your friends list, and good discussions. Really, i try to stay away from a lot of the controversy. I don't miss high school drama, so that's why i stay away from a lot of that stuff, unless i see someone just out right attacked. But really, the money is an added bonus to being able to talk to people at 2am when everyone else is asleep. LOL

I use mylot because; 1.I like communicating with other people,learning new things. 2.This is a good way to make income for my small needs.Maney attracts people everytime. 3.I feel as I compete with other people.I check the number of posts of the other people and try to reach higher post number to my target mass. 4.I renew my ideas after reading messages and posts of the members.Sometimes I catch good and new ideas to use in my real life.

I enjoy it for very similiar reasons. I like to meet new people and see new viewpoints on life, there are recipes and jokes that i get to pass around to people. And hey, you get paid while you talk to people. You really just can't beat that!
