Hi mylotters
well i am a part of mylot for over years now
though the layout and all are prefect 10 out of 10
i still think that it take me long time to me too post in one topic.
i jump a lot from one box to another but it would really help if there is a faster way to post here
in some forums like clixsense we can see a box pops up which i like a lot. or a slider which come when we click on reply
would you like to something like that here at mylot??
i think if we have a thing like that then it could make mylot even faster to load as sometimes we see it takes a while, as it need to open a whole new response page
just my thoughts what do you guys think

Well one thing that will be really useful is another section that would flash or show a number of something when you get a reply on a post you commented cause every time I'm commenting on a post I have to reopen it after some time to see if there is a reply on my comment and since I'm active on mylot I have to open like 10-15 tabs or more every time I do this check.

Totally agree with you lakantar
well mylot give notification when someone reply to our box but they don't send a notification when we receive a comment one someone else box
i even created a topic on that
http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/2604677.aspx
and the solution i got is bookmarking which certainly only few of us do
as a discussion site mylot should be giving notification even one someone gets a comment on someone else box. without the notification we would not have a good discussion
flash on top of our page like many site have would be a awesome addition to mylot

You are correct! I am sometimes relying on my messages in my email, but sometimes they're late. I also notice that if I commented on one myLotter comment, I'm not usually receiving a notification that someone commented back. I also opened 10 windows this afternoon and kept on refreshing them every now and then so that I can immediately reply if someone commented on my post.

Do you mean embedded reply box? But it would be mean that there will be less of page views, perhaps it can be a drawback :P.
It's a good idea though, so we can make quick replies. Let just hope there will be some improvements here..
~although I don't really have idea about what myLot programmers currently do now..

well i don't have a idea about it but as the newcomment, newresponse and newdiscussion can be access only by mylotter so i think there would be no loss
anyhow what's with the page views do mylot admin want valuable post or just page views i think they would prefer post in this case

well they did a maintenance at start of November i guess when mylot was down for few days
but many still thought that there was no no improvement in speed
well it is quite fast to load when many user are not online on weekdays but sometimes it tends to become slow
though not as slow as it used to be before the maintenance in November it has improved a lot

Yup you are right
well i wish they do some changes because frankly i think i take more time to post here compare to other site where the pop up box help a lot

Hi J
the layout of mylot is easy to understand as per me (once we get a hang of it)
the only i think would be better if we are able to post quickly and there are notification for our post when we comment on some other box.
unfortunately mylot don't have both

white color is good
imagine mylot all with weird colors well people would hate it
even fb has a white background with black text just a blue bar on top

Well personally I think some of the issue could be the amount of people that might be in here posting from time to time that slows down the service for this site. But one thing that would be nice if they could make an Ap that people could use on their phone to be able to reply from, and/or link our profiles and discussions with Facebook to make people more interested and want to be here.

An application for mylot may be on the top list when it comes to changes that mylotters wants
i have seen many member request a app like facebook or another for there phone as a student myself i can't be always stuck in front of my pc for mylot.
if we can mylot on the go then it would surely be a awesome treat for all the mylotter

There should be a proper notification when someone responds to the discussion we started. If there are responses for more than one of our discussions, we can't exactly know for which discussions we've got responses. Only the latest is shown in bold letters. Same with other comments for our responses in other discussions.

I've set both of them on and I get emails when someone comments on my posts. But that is not enough. I can't keep coming to mylot whenever I see a notification e-mail. I spend my leisure time on mylot and I expect the notifications to be in my mylot profile itself..
Specially with the discussions that I START. We get responses after a long time often, and it goes unnoticed!!

well i hope you have set both this notification on
email me when someone responds to my discussions
email me when someone comments on my response
http://www.mylot.com/nr/editNotifications.aspx
the only problem i face is when i comment on someone else box as we don't get any notification for that so need to bookmark them and visit it few times a day

Hi sajeev, I have had no problem so far in posting a comment on mylot.However, I am all any kind of improvement to the site especially having an edit button which would be really helpful when we make some mistakes while posting - all the best and have a nice day

I understand what you mean, sajeevking.
It's been quite a while since I've became a member here and MyLot is still the same.
I think the other reason why MyLot is slow too is because of the codes used to construct this site. I mean, the overall of the site itself.
Forgive me if my IT personality is taking over for the next few sentences... I've noticed that the site is more on the HTML format. It's a programming language that is the skeleton of any website but I don't think it's fit to become the only language to support a site such as MyLot with it's population. It's a very old programming language and has it's disadvantages in speed compared to its descendants.
--I'm stopping the nose-bleeding part of the analysis of an IT geek like me before I do anymore harm---
Yes, I do wish for some changes especially when bugs in the system are being frequent already. I also think it's time to put some little changes behind the codes that instead of using HTML for designing, it's nigh the time to use either PHP, java or just only at least the CSS to speed up things better...Oh my gosh, I'm going back--well anyways what I mean to say is, not to reconstruct MyLot from top to bottom but just change some itty-bitty part of the code that designs the face of MyLot to something that will load faster.
And there's also the part where looking for users are quite a job because you can't get to search them out on automatic. Instead one has to work his butt off reading thousands of people's profile names first before you really find your needle in the hay stack...do you get what I mean?

@Dupremo: sajeevking is correct. I do not mean the rights to use html codes at discussions for users. I am referring to the codes used behind what you see--the graphics/the interface, functions and stuff.
@sajeevking: Thanks for reminding me about the asp.net. It's one of those languages that I got some issue understanding but no worries... I'm getting there.
Thanks also for helping me with finding people. It really is a big job to look for one person in a crowd.

I think you understand what i am talking about
changes are always good
i remember reading one of the post of mylot admin where he said he want to make mylot bigger brand
well if we see fb layout keep on changing every now and then, for mylot i guess we all should demand some changes

You just mentioned bookmarking in one of your comments. I remember you also mentioned this bookmarking in one of your comments in my discussion. I am getting confused with so many bookmarks, so what I'm doing is I'm always going back the next day to posts I responded.

As far as earning is consider i have no problem with mylot
they do give us a lot of earning opportunity to earn here
try commenting on other user box and interact a lot you would love it
and also use search engine and do task if you can to earn
@sajeevking (5073)

26 Mar 12
how about search engine do you use it too i get one rewards every day or two all the time
helps a lot to reach the minimum amount
what i think you should do is jump on other boxes
this help in interacting with lots of mylotters and we make some good friends along the way

I don't want any change in Mylot,but sometimes it occurs to me how it would be if Mylot starts selecting the best discussion of the week or the best discussion of the month.Don't you think it would be encouraging for mylotters and would inspire them to initiate quality discussions? A similar selection may be made for the best responses.
@sajeevking (5073)

we have a section like that where we can see today's top, hot topic
did you mean 1 top discussion in a month.
there are tons of good discussion started everyday so choosing one top well the admin would i guess
we can see the best responses received by us
go to discussion link above you would find lot of category there
@sajeevking (5073)

that's for sure
each discussion is different so choosing the best would be just not possible
as each is discussed upon different topic

I still remember you, dear friend:) Since I don't try to post in Clixsense, so I don't know its difference between it and Mylot. As you know, I have been a member of Mylot for a long time and therefore I have got used to it. I don't expect a very big change here.
I love China

it can be an idea about a site like mylot too...surely it wouldn't be so easy make changement on a site like mylot but a nice changement here would be to improve speed of the site and so the posting too...all changements in this can be ok..
@sajeevking (5073)

well surely to implement any changes it would take a lot of time but at least it would be a start
as a discussion site i think the part of posting/commenting should be very fast and full of notification

mylot is not face book so lets not make mylot another facebook,
sure facebook changes and does it too damned much. I dislike faceboook because it gets hardier an more complicated to use. I love the unique way mylot w orks and its simplicity. just contact the admins if it seems slow and they will goose it up no need for changes that will make mylot just a copy of facebook not at all. if it ain't broken why the hell fix it?"[

Hi Aunt Hatley
Well mylot should never be like facebook for sure. mylot has a nice easy to get along layout which i rated 10 out of 10
well some things need to change from time to time we might get bored i guess
from my 1 and half year of mylotting i haven't seen any changes here

I do like the format of mylot. Sure we come across some glitches or slowness from time to time but mylot is usually quick to resolve that for us. Now I think you mean a "quick reply" button so in you do not have to wait for all to load. I can understand that, but as I said if it's slow it shouldn't be for too long as mylot does try to keep the site running as fast as possible.
It could also be your internet connection or computer resources. Sometimes when I have many things opened mylot takes a bit, but other times when I've got nary but one thing opened mylot speeds through.

Hi SomeCowgirl
well i do have a high speed connection so no problem there
well the thing is i haven't seen a single change here for a long time now and there are many things which if work on can be lot better than what we currently have
@jazel_juan (15746)

Hmm change is good but often times when we think it is good, we might regret it when it is there...and wish for things to go back the way it was before. But for here in mylot, i am quite happy with the way things are. If you are suggesting like a box that will pop up and you get to reply immediately.. that would let you create a lot more responses but, that would also make people lazy to go and read other people's comments too... some people might also take it as an opportunity to just reply and reply without taking time to read and interact.
@sajeevking (5073)
• Mumbai, India
26 Mar 12
well yeah sometimes changes are not always welcome
about people reading all the post before leaving there own comment well many mylotter don't do it till now
by the way i think if we can post a lot faster then we would see a lot increase in the amount of interaction instead of a drop

an application for mobile phone is demanded by many mylotters for a long time
we can use mobile for mylotting but its very hard i know that
pc is always preferable when it comes to mylotting
