I've been reading people's profiles here on MyLot. It seems to be very important to a lot of us. Do you find or spend a few minutes reading your MyLot friends' profiles? Some of us got very, and I mean very creative. Most of the profiles are very informative--it's one way to really get to know others here. Well, that's just my take on things. Do you have a sweet profile? Here's mine http://mylot.com/gtargirl , now what's your's? Let's get to know one another. Be nice now.

Yes, sometimes i take a look at people's photos! But i see that generaly people don't have much patience to write about them on their profile! It's more important to post that's what gives money! lol

Yeah, I guess the discussions seem to be a priority. I like your photographs, btw, especially the ones from Africa. And my Oma (Grandma) was from your part of the world. Anyway, thanks for dropping by, have yourself a wonderful evening.

Yes, I agree. It's so interesting to find out where someone is from. Like you, my friend. I wonder how many people from your country are on MyLot. Plus you have very deep thought-provoking discussions. Anyway, thanks for dropping by and have a wonderful evening.

I may glance to see where someone lives or their age but don't spend much time at all on a profile page. My focus is more on the discussions. Like to get right to the "heart" of things!

It's nice to check out how creative people get though. Plus all their discussions are there in one place. I like to check out where they're from and how old they are too. That's what the profile is for. Thanks CarolB.

I do sometimes look at the profile of the person especially if he or she always have interesting topics. I am always curious with what these people are doing and having so far to be able to have such "success" and good topics. Sometimes if I am also inviting to be my friends or i am invited, i look on the profiles firsts.

I do that too. If someone requests to be my friend I always check out their profile. Makes sense to me. We can learn so much about each other. Sometimes that's not so good, jk, mostly good though. Have a wonderul evening.

Hey Darkaeon, nice profile. I read your article on Helium. Keep writing. You might want to check out Associated Contentalso. There's a link on my profile for it. You'll make more money with your writing. Keep it up and let me know of your next article.

I do it rarely.If i get more free time,i do it.But it is very difficult for me to spend time to read others profile due to work load.

When someone ask me to be is friend, i always go see his profile after i accept the request. But I see everyone profile at least once a week, because I go see what new discussion they have started and also if they didnt log for a long time. So I always take a look at people profile :)

I usually read other's profiles. Some are a bit rather loud though, but mine is very simple. http://mylot.com/suspenseful I also have a blog on writing, or rather my experience in writing. I am not into doing much drawing though, or on putting up pictures. As I said I like to keep things simple so people are not confused by the decorations.

Yes, whenever I receive a request from someone for adding her/him as my friend or if I see that someone has written an interesting answer to my discussion, I make it a point to go through/read/evaluate his/her profile. Profile also tells us a lot about a member and his nature and taste. Good Post!

No. and No. I never look at my profile to be honest and I rarely ever go to someone else's profile. Basically I forget about it. That's the most simple explanation. I just don't really think that it's that important and so many people use it for referral links, that I'm like whatever.

That's true, very true. But . . . what better place to put referral links at MyLot. Far better than having discussions about them I suppose? And again, people put in quite a lot of creativity into their profiles. That's my 2 cents anyhow.

Well I didn't mean to imply that I didn't care about profiles or that people shouldn't put referrals there. I just meant to imply that, well... I forget about profiles and I don't look at my own so I rarely look at others.

At first I'm not giving much importance to my profile but when I saw that people are viewing it, I felt ashamed and decided to somehow make it look better. I also view other profiles to get some information and to share some links.

Hi gtargirl. Well, personally I don't really view other's profile that much (though I have viewed yours). Haha. I don't think my profile is an informative one but I really don't know what to write in fact. Haha.

hi there. Yes, I usually read other profiles. Sometimes, I spend more time checking them out rather than spending it on typing out my responses to discussions. I like to look at whatever pictures that are posted in their profiles and check out their discussions, especially the old ones. Actually, two weeks ago, I was unable to find interesting discussions for me to respond to. So, I thought of checking out the profiles on my friends list and dig up their old discussions. MyLot is a place where we can find new friends and in order to do that, we should take some steps to find out more things about a particular person. And besides, other profiles are nice to look at and there are profiles that have other interesting stuffs other than the usual, routine ones.

Hi gtargirl.I only look at their age,what their gender is(its hard to really know),pictures to see what they look like if they have some and thats it.I really ont care about my profile,its just normal and regular,i still dont know how to put a music generator and even paste comments.Id love to know how to put a comment into friends pages,i feel bad because they give me a special comment an i cant give one back,they must think im mean or something.It bothers me not to be able to do this.:{ Peanutjar:{

I do read some profiles before but lately I don't because I am getting a lil bit busy, I hope I will have more time so I can go through more profiles.

Sometimes I do read other MyLot profiles, esp. when I ask for somebody to be my friend or if somebody asks me to be his/her friend...Plus when there's a discussion where I need to look at the person's profile to understand the topic better, then I'll read it, too. I think a person's profile is somewhat important in MyLot, esp. for certain topics he he he he...;-D And yeah, you're right. Some people are VERY creative indeed about their profiles. ;-D
