I have been trying to open a post for the last three hours.
The mylot home page does open, but every tome i try to respond or open up a post, nothing happens. It is page is downloading for about eight monthes and nothing.
Do you have this problem with mylot today?
I did not make one single response or a post today because of this problem, and i checked, other sites are working fine, so it is not a problem with my connection.

The same thing happened to me earlier. I signed on to Mylot and I responded to someone, but when I went to submit the page, the page just sat there and kept loading instead of sending the response so I could tag it. Everything seems to be working fine for me now, but Mylot pages were froze or loading very slowly earlier. Is your pages loading okay for you now or are they still slow and not loading? I thought it was a problem with my connection also but my other websites I earn from loaded just fine.

Well I hate to say it,but I am glad to hear I am not the only one experiencing this problem.It started last night for me here, when I was trying to respond to some posts...I would type away like crazy...blah,blah,blah & then go to send it & it wouldn't send...arg!So I wasn't able to post last night.And today it's been hit & miss as far as being able to get my posts sent...some worked some didn't.Yes, very frustrating..."But look at the bright side you're not alone...lol...misery loves company...lol"...it's got to get better right?:)

You were not the only one having problems with this site. It would not open for me correctly or anything about an hr. or so ago for me, and so I gave up, and now it is working Fine for me again. I am not sure what holds this site up sometimes. Might be too many people trying to be on here at once, but not sure? At least I do not have Dialup when this happens. That would be really Bad.

Really? I haven't experience that. I have been posting more than 5 responses and I didn't experience any trouble close to yours. I guess you should try to restart your computer. Maybe there is something wrong with the browser. I can't say it's myLot since it is normal. I haven't try making a discussion. Maybe that would be my problem. Hehehe! But I am not really sure.

I waited for a while but what i have faced is lost of writings: I write responces, put for preview and then after editing put for posting and minuts passed nothing come up and suddenly the blank posting window come up with the title RESPOND TO THE DISCUSsION! What ever I have written was disapeared and I tried again and same thing happened!
I lost 3/4 important responces this way! one just before 5 minutes! Once i was asked for username and password, though i was entered on my lot with the same process! Then why again I was asked after writing 3/4 paras and went for posting at that time why this happened?
I can't understand this but i think perhaps microsoft and mylot relations have changed or the service has problem? or here server problem is making this trouble? but any other site this is not happening! Then why on mylot only?
Well, this is for enough!

I've been experiencing problems with pages taking ages to load. It was really bad yesterday (I presume around the same time you were having problems), but today it seems to be working fine again. I find these glitches happen every couple of months, I had them a lot when I joined. It's never a problem with my connection either, it's all on myLot's side.

Yeah.. I had the same problem yesterday.. I thought it was only with my dad's computer so I decided to transfer to my own computer.. But hell yeah, it took almost forever to post a response.. I got really impatient and decided to just work on my Friendster account, and just posted new pictures of our recent trip to Baguio City..

I did. I was trying to respond to a discussion and it kept hanging when I press the post response button. Since I don't have the copy/paste privilege yet, I had to retype my answers. I tried three times and eventually gave up. I checked other sites too and I did not have any problems. I think it has something to do with the 87k+ members trying to get a piece of their minds into the discussion board.
This will be my first try again after giving up on posting. Hopefully this works.

Hi liranlgo! yeah it is not a problem in your connection, i have experience the same thing. Everytime i try posting a discussion or even a comment it never responds it takes too long for the progress bar to move. Much worst sometimes it really never respond, i wonder why, cause i never got an error message. If i try pressing back button it works properly.. What must be the problem?! We were both wondering.

Your problem may be due to the overload of your server . I am also having the same experience during peak hours of internet using for example between 1230 - 1330 hours and after 2200 hours in the night. You can check the browzer during early morning and if it is working properly you can be sure that the reason for non-working of the server is due to overload.

Why bother to keep trying if it is obviously some massive glitch? I just went away and went out to buy a packet of overpriced fries. When I returned and finishes the fries, I just save my replies on notepad using the email notifications. You may reply my discussion on thousands of email notifications.

YES. I have same problem. I am sure it is not only you and me facing this problem but many of the members have post a discussion about it. i also find out that some of my posts and replies have been deleted just after other members give me the replies, I am sure they do not violate the discussion rules, and I read a post about a deduction of ten dollars from his account balance.
