I'm fairly new here and already i feel quite at home. Personally it's cool to see a site as big as this be as friendly as it is, i have noticed the odd few who are trying there best to ruin it but the good things shine through.
This leaves me wondering what you first thoughts was and what actaully kept you coming?
For myself i'm looking to find friends. (online) since i'm not quite the outgoing person people believe me to be. i'm also looking to find people interestd in projects of mine (honest answer). the pocket money is nice but i'm not here for this really, i'm here to have a laugh get to know people.
People who share simular views + post interesting topics keep me here. (i'm not great at starting 'em but i love diving in and leaving comments)
what you?

I just really think it is fun and interesting. I love giving my opinions and trying to give advice to people and I also love getting opinions on things. My first day I earned about $1 which made me think hey, its not alot but its a bonus for something that I like doing :)

you won't believe it. but when i started here 6 months ago, we were just around a thousand (or two thousand maybe) in number here. and not all are active. there are still those who are active until now but most of them aren't here anymore. there were so much interesting topics before as we have now. i admit, i am the one of those before who post silly discussions before. and throughout my experience here, i have developed a lot.
now, we're nearly 68,000 in number. and yep. the more the merrier! there are lots of helpful people around, nice people to meet, more friends to communicate with, more learnings to have day after day and believe it or not, more earnings for all of us.
this site has grown a lot. and i love it here so much!

It's cool to watch places grow.
When i first heard about this place my buddy joined when there was only a few hundred. he isn't around anymore and i can't find him =(
I've been on other communitys and watch them grow and change i just hope that this place doesn't lose it's charm and that people support those who are + points to this place.
I've started a support the site movement. (friends, new members, new disucssion follow mylots rules.) hehe

having fun is the best part. if we're not having fun at all and just up for the money, we will feel more stressed all the time. that was me during my first month. now that i am enjoying, i get to earn more!

Of course, the prospect of a little extra cash is a good motivation to get us here, but my main reason for staying is to find people who share a few similar hobbies. I'm looking to chat with people with some of the same passions. That will help us all learn from one another. Sometimes its hard to find that in our small world of the physical, but communities like this make that so much easier.

I have been here several months, I have to say I enjoy it. The money is an added bonus. We have so much to learn from so many different people from all over the world. Its great to get to know people from all over too. I have made a few friends here, have learned alot too. Plus I like to talk, if you hadn't noticed, haha. Its been good to meet you Joey, you sound like a nice person. I am still waiting for you to shovel my snow, my car is buried.

Like with anything, work, internet, life you always get the odd few who want to spoil it for the others. I found this site by chance back in October and I was a little sceptical at first, I mean getting paid for literally chatting and making friends? But once I got my first payment through I was addicted. I just love the friendly atmosphere here, making friends, and chatting with people from all around the world! At a touch of a fingertip, it's amazing. Being able to share my problems and hopefully being able to help and listen to other people's. There is a wealth of knowledge to be gained through this kind of site, as well as learning about other people's countries and cultures. I now prefer to respond to discussions rather than start discussions myself.

Whenever you get a community of people (on the Internet or in real life), you are always going to get the trouble makers. I actally think MyLot deals with them here quite well, and they don't nterfere too much with my day-to-say enjoyment of the site. I am here primarily to talk to people, and just find out more about different people, and cultures all over the world. I find it interesting that there are so any people from everywhere here. Have a nice evening!
