Yes, receiving a 'like' does pay!

It always has in this version of myLot, although for some reason many people have stated otherwise. Putting it bluntly, a 'like' is the only way to show interest in a discussion without making a comment/response, and the Earning FAQ page has always stated, albeit indirectly, that it is one of the conditions for which we earn. But 12 days ago, Alex plainly stated in no uncertain terms that a 'like' does indeed pay. So can we finally put the 'question' to rest? Receiving a 'like' to any discussion, response, or comment you make does indeed earn for you. Period. And if you still don't believe me, then GoAskAlice

@andriaperry @jaiho2009 GoAskAlice was originally a she, but she left the company and Alex took over her account.

A share likes....not as many as comments....but that's because so often when I'm on the iPad the screen will jump and with my fat fingers I end up somewhere other than my intended location. Time becomes a factor.

So it is true. But just LIKING all comments in a discussion gets the liker a cent for each like? I ask this because I noticed somebody liking every comment in my discussion but the user has no comment given. Wouldn't the LIKE be abused by some?

No, it does not pay the person doing the 'liking' it pays the person GETTING the 'like', and nothing here pays 1 cent. If someone 'likes' something, they don't get paid for it. When I 'like' your response, YOU get paid for it, not me.

I have always liked to leave likes in case someone would like my help. I like that liking is worthwhile.

It is already my way, to hit like after reading a post to let the poster know that I have read it even if I didn't comment. Also, I hit like to the comment after I have read it too. Then, I comment to add what I have to say.

I'm glad to see this being addressed directly as there are times when I will "like" a discussion to acknowledge I've read it, but the discussion itself doesn't really engender a response from me.
