Yes I have also noticed this. I think people are getting lazy. It seems no one wants to work for their money anymore. It's pretty pathetic.

Yeah...looks like people are too excited due to christmas and new year approaching or it might be the case of people losing interest because of mylot changing its guidelines and decided to give out earnings only to quality discussions ...isn't it? Anyway's, thanks for responding

To be honest mylot seems to be a better time waster than a money maker but I'll stay on it for a while. I've seen worse (like trying to get "gold" in the Gaia Online forums on users of gaiaonline.com) but I do try and give good answers to people when I can. I like the idea of the free-for-all help your neighbour community atmosphere. I just wonder how long it's going to be before the ones that cheat the system ruin it for everyone else and the site goes the way of alladvantage.com and disappears off the face of the 'net

Yeah, I don't think I'd consider chatting on Mylot 'working'! It's fun, yes, but I'm guessing people are plenty busy these days working at their real jobs, and with holiday plans, getting ready to take time off for holidays, traveling, etc.

I think a lot of the people who ended up not making money with the new rules have left. If you add in the people who are horribly busy the week before Christmas, you're bound to see a decrease. The topics and discussions are much better, and I am making more money than before. I don't have to sift through too many senseless topics to find one I can reply to.

Yeah...even i used to go through senseless discussions in the past and was feeling really odd on seeing those silly discussions and now mylot has come out with proper guideliens and it seems to be genrating more interest in coming day's by quality discussions and even though in coming day's, we might see some more mylotians leaving this and go in search of some other sites, new people will join in every now and then and stoping them posting silly dicussions will take some more time again...so, it is a continuous process.... anyway's...we will enjoy working here together Anyway's, thanks for responding

Definitely, i am also thinking in teh same way and let us keep our fingures crossed and hope for the best in coming new year...one thing is sure, i will be active as usual, just because i don't take my time off like others for these big events...even i like to go out and celebrate...but, eevn then i keep some time for mylot also during those events for sure...i don't want to let these events to effect my earnings here..

I've noticed too. I'm sure Christmas has a lot to do with it. At the same time, maybe people are really getting tired of this. I know I've had fun doing this and the curiosity of how much money I can make has helped keep me going, but seriously, I've decided that I will do as much as I can the first month, see what the pay out is and decide if it's still worth it to be here.

Then, don't you think mylot earnings have improved these day's.Just give a try one day by working for more hours and with posting quality discussions and be prompt in replying to all of those who responded to your discussion and then decide seing what you get for working that number of hours...

If you consider this as waste, it is a waste.If you believ in something, youi should believe it whole heatertedly otherwise, you maynot succeed anywhere without giving your 100% shot there.....it alld epends on eac individual and how they take it.In my case, i believ in mylot and in myself and no one can change my attitude.Once i believe in something , i will focus on that with true spirit , as i believe in my decisions more .Mylot is a legit site and i believe, working for more number of hours will yeald good result here also....

It is obvious but i feel that it is also good to take away the black sheep who always bomb the sites with duplicate posts. Quality means improvement and widen our knowledge.

What you said is absolutely right.But, everything cannot be set right instantly isn't it? even mylot is changing as you are aware of it now.Mylot has com eout with new set of guidelines which will make this site more intteresting in coming day's...but, surely everything cannot be done instantly and in coming day's, these improvements you can see by yourself and mylot also requires all our support in improving and it is also our responsibility to join together and make mylot more worthy site...isn't it?

From the very begining I have been noticing that you are very serious in mylot and you have a keen eye on the happenings on mylot. That's great and we all can depend on you for your excellent accuracy. It's rare and you are different! Quality always command everywhere mylot is no exception and people without quality are bound to be "odd man out." It's natural. Mere fun loving people cannot be entertained for long, so they will get bored and search for new places. Let's focus on the better side and let all these happen because all are part of the game. We are to see who are the horses for the long race here. Let's count them. I wish to thank you once again for this serious and genuine discussion and your keen observation. All the best to you!

Yes, your observation is right and i don't leave things half way.Getting depressed on doing something when things are going low-like less number of people working now doesn't effect my spirit as i believ in this and have confidence that i will do well by working more here.Thanks for your observation and for all those praisings which you are giving it here for me.I agree to your view that silly people cannot be entertained for long and they will have to look for new places and that might happen in coming new year i believe and it would be great fun if you also take active interest here in coming day's to make mylot more attractive for all of us and if i say, 100$ / month can be achieved without referrals, you will agree that it is good money and that means, with more work and more referrals 200$ also can be achieved in next month ...what do you say? Anyway's, it was so nice of you to put so many good words about me...thank you for that and let me promise that i will remain the same...more active in coming day's...tahnk you once again for taking part in this discussion

Partly it's that the holidays are approaching, and also partly Mylot cleaning up things. They said the other day there would be adjustments for the November payout, cleaning out bad discussions, etc. and I think they may have removed users who had lots of irrelevant discussions, spam, etc. The number of members was going up steadily until a day or so ago, then went down, maybe it will rise more slowly until after the holidays, then maybe pick up again--people will need cash to pay off their holiday bills!

The level has been slowly rising over the last few weeks, but you are right in a way, that growth seems to have slowed down. It could be because its christmas so everyone is busy spenind, as opposed to earning, or perhaps people are just getting annoyed they cant earn more here. (like me!)

I have heard of orkut, but haven't joined there as i think spending lot of hours there is simply a waste of time and in my case,if i spend more than 2 hours on naything, we also should look into earnings side also....maybe at a very young age, when you don't have any responsibility you can spend your time there for more hours....but, frankly speaking, siting for more time in orkut is a waste of time for sure.Anyway's, thanks for responding

It's gotta be the Christmas season. I'm also blogging on LiveJournal, and the traffic there is pretty low too. There's a lot of people who have already left for the holidays, and many more who are running around trying to get all the last minute stuff done. It'll bounce back up come the New Year. If it makes you feel any better, it's still growing. I just joined yesterday.

Christmas is a big event of teh year.no doubt in that and in fact, i was expecting this decrease in numbers during christmas time as people will obviously divert their attention and once the major events get over, everybody will be back with a bang...just keep a watch...

yes i also noticed people are busy in preparation of christmas so number is less also maybe due to less credits for posts as compare to other paying forums is the reason

People maynot have left mylot because of less payments of mylot.It is mainly because of christmas and new year,which is coming very near and everybody wil be occupied in their own work and finding hard to come back to mylot andwork here..so, maybe things will get back to normal again in tehcoming new year like before and we can only hope so...

I believe it's mostly people who responded to discussions with "yes" or "no" and who copied others' discussions. Now that they can't anymore they don't want to work harder for their money. XD

@chiyosan (30184)
