GranTurismoGuru I'm surprised Amazon have not yet noticed this and started selling them too. If greedy Amazon think they've missed out on some profit, it'll seem like the end of the world ! ??

Are you here for the money?

Zain Ullah @zainkhan121 (859) • Pakistan 4 Sep 17

First of all this is an amazing place. After I joined Mylot I didn't even know this was a PAID TO POST forum. I also see a lot of active users. So I got this question in my head that are these people posting for the money or they...

Linda Mansfield (Snowdrop) @sprite1950 (30452) • Corsham, England 10 Mar 18

People living together without marriage

marianne @ckciasigurl (2081) • Italy 27 Mar 17

GranTurismoGuru A good point and I agree personally. However, just like most things in modern society which require morals and decent behaviour, there are very few people who give a dam. Marriage seems little more than a cheap excuse to have a good booze-up, enjoy effortless...

GranTurismoGuru Hello mrcol, When I used to be on myLot a couple of years ago, the money could never have come into play. Basically, it is more of a token than a wage (or at least it used to be). I wasn't about to order a new Ferrari off the back of it - that's for...

GranTurismoGuru The stars are quite a debated subject by a good many people on myLot. Sometimes you can drop down in number on your star, if say, a lot of people don't happen to like what you've said - as has been described above regarding the ranking system. Often, people...
