When did I actually join myLot?

The myLot 'calendar' rolls over at the end of each year, which means your profile won't always accurately state how long you have been a member. For instance, if you joined in December 2007, right now your profile would say you have been here 10 years although your 10-year 'anniversary' won't be until December of this year. To find out the exact date that the profile you use joined myLot is fairly easy. Simply copy your '@' name (such as @JolietJake ) and then paste it into the user search feature. When you search, it will show your name and to the right the exact day you joined (while I have been here continuously since Oct 2006, I have only had this account since January 7 of last year). Most people don't know and couldn't care less (I could care less if I wanted to) but if you are curious of your actual joining date, The Wonders Of myLotâ„¢ make it easy to find.

I know it was August 17, 2015 because it's the first day that appears in my Earnings summary with the huge amount of $0.0128.

My 'PhredWreck' account shows the first earnings on July 12th 2015, but of course I had been here since May 2013 with it

October 2015 was when I made my debut on Mylot. I had been on Bubblews for a number of years. That was my first foray into the world of writing?? For an audience. The first month or so I wasn't here vey frequently as my home internet was very limited and very expensive. Then we found a more economical source of unlimited internet and I've been here fairly consistently ever since.

@JolietJake I enjoy many of the friendships that were formed on the old Bubblews site. Most of the time I get sucked in and spend more time than I plan here. Other days I don't see much that I want to read or comment on. Then I take a day or two off and realize how I managed to miss the most interesting and controversial subjects.

@Morleyhunt When I first started coming here, I didn't know anyone and it was just to pass some time...then I started getting to actually know a few people and I've been hooked since

I joined 1 November 2015 - and I discovered there is another Judy Evans who joined in 2014 but has never been active. Thanks for the info.

@JolietJake Haha! Maybe I'd be best not to ask but why would searching for my full name be a mistake? There is another Judy Evans who goes to the same dental surgery as I do but what is even spookier is that we were born on the same day.

@JudyEv Because searching @JudyEvans won't find you and I was looking for your profile to find a discussion of yours

Wow, I feel really old now, as nobody that posted has been here longer than me. I have been here almost 12 years. I was here when Mylot didn't pay at all and in the old days when I earned more than I do today. I have stayed as a couple people on Mylot helped me get through some really rough times.

Wow! Thanks for sharing this very interesting information about our actual date of joining. When I punched in my name and searched it, it showed that I joined mylot on 7th Jan., 2007, which means that I have actually completed my ten years here on mylot, without any break and I have entered into the eleventh year. I could claim to be one of the olderst member here.

@JolietJake .....Yes, it seems to be. I just hate change so it took me a while to get used to it.

I've grown used to it. It's much better than it was at first when they changed it.

You have closed at least one account then opened a new one, right? I just remember you used to go by a different name and it still shows up in my following list.

I guess I've been here since August 22, 2011. Funny, I thought I'd been here longer, but my memory gets fuzzy sometimes.
