I responded to a discussion last night about why top members are "disapearing"

refferals - referrals for mylot
United States
May 14, 2007 5:50am CST
I hope what this person had to say in their discussion is not true. He said it has to do with the number of referrals one gets. The more referrals one has the more likely you will get banned for no reason because they are more or less making TOO much money from their referrals and if mylot will suspend you when you have a large amount of referrals so they won't have to pay the comissions. I am not going to link to that discussion but most of you will know how to find it if you care to look at what t his person has to say because he went into great detail. I just last week got 6 referrals under me by sending them an invite from mylot. And now I am hesitating on inviting anymore. Please give me your thoughts and opinions on this matter. Thanks in advance. ~Sherry~ ('',)

Thats the first time I heard that one. I did find the discussion you are talking about. All I know is some strange things have been going on lately. Many people are losing points and lots of them. One person lost all her points and all her discussions were gone. I had responded to a few of her discussions and I could not see where she broke the rules. Also, many people are having to redo their best reponses after they already picked them. I am hoping it is just a major glitch that will be fixed soon. Mylot hs not answered anyone as to what is going on either. I heard a rumor that mylot was going under but I don't think that is true. I have never had trouble getting payment from them and it came a few days early this month. I'm not really sure what is going on, but I would not panic just yet. If by chance it is true about the referrals, I doubt that 6 will make you too much to put you in danger. Lets hope that this is just a glitch and it will all be fixed soon.

They will not respond to questions about points or earnings and I am assuming it is because they get too many of them. I emailed them a question the other day but not in those two categories and they responded within an hour. Yeh you're right brendalee 6 ref is nothing to worry about. Thanks!

well, congrats on getting those 6. Referrals are sometimes hard to get. I hope they are active for you. I have 10 but only 2 are active.

I have never heard this before, but it is kind of logical if u think about it.. wrong, but logical. I do hope that it is not true though, not that i have many referalls , or even trying to get more - but I would hate it if they were cheating like that

i too hope this is not the case but i think that even if we have to make statements like this it is a symptom of the secrecy with which mylot's organisation of the site is being organised. What is clear is that some people have disappeared without any explanation by mylot, it does make me wonder if there is someone, or group of people making malitious aqusations? blessed be

Cause people can earn money without doing any thig in mylot as theor referrals are doing thier jobs..!! Mylot wnats every one to be active here in mylot..!! So I don't its a bad change..!

because someone is active in building the mylot community, they should be banned??? interesting point of view..

that's definately an interesting point ... if it is true you are going to have a lot of referrals that are active daily to be in the firing line. Once you get 200+ and get on the top referral list then you may have something to worry about. For the time being - just enjoy mylot and share it with your friends!

I am a newbie here I still have to learn all these things to earn more. At present, I do have much referals under me. I believe in putting up hard work. I am not relying on referals and If by any means whatever you have said here is true, I might not suffer for not having much referals under me. I know shall not earn much, but atleast I will not worrying about about this referal thing. As i disclosed above I am yet to learn these all things. I am afraid I am not able to do justice to this discussion. I just hope that everything goes well for you sjohnson628 and others who are working hard here.

Sherry, a lot of junk is going on here, as you have read and responded to my posts. However, I do not believe this to be true. MyLot gains from more people. And there is no where in the rules that say that. So, do not be worried about this referrel thing. Good luck, bless you sugar.

Well I have not heard that one before but what I will see is that People who have been here for a while and are being banned is because some People on here think they can take the law in their own Hands and get rid of People by reporting them for stupid things There is a person here who has nothing better to do then cause false accusations and getting People to report the stupidest thing then this Person reports them But then you have People on here that are giving Members verbal abuse being nasty calling other Members names and guess what the law Person over sees those ones as that Person is to busy with the petty stuff Sorry it had to be said as that is what is happening

I saw that discussion but did not respond. I do not have a single referral under me and I really am not interested in it. It kind of feels like I'm stealing from them if I had one. They work their butts off & I get %25 of their earnings. But anyhow I don't know if legally myLot can ban one for that purpose. they may have to word the reasons for the ban differently to have it legal. I don't/didn't see anything along those lines of too much earnings etc in the guidelines so who knows actually. This is absolutely ridiculous if it's all true. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

No it's the way I feel is all. I felt if they worked the butts off Im getting paid for it is wrong in my eyes to a point. I can see maybe a one time award of cash but %25 seems a bit steep. I hate the fact my daughter is making a lot off me actually. But oh well. myLot goes on. Hahahahaha!!! HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

i dont think this is true.if i were you i wouldnt be worried.i dont think mylot would do such a thing as to ban a person for having referrals even after asking us to invite more people here.actually mylot gains if we bring people in and they share their profit with us.so just sit back and have fun.

I think I have nothing to worry about as far as this "referrals thing" is concern. I've been inviting my friends to join this site but they are sort of disinterested to indulge in here.But it is very unfortunate to learned that things have been working this way here. I got my concern too.I just hope you don't mind if I'll share it here. You know, I was supposed to received or claimed my first payout 3 weeks ago but then I asked mylot to just hold my earnings for the meantime. They informed me that e-gold is no longer reliable because they've been facing charges. Paypal is not available in my country.Well, this is another thing. I don't know, I think I'll just have to wait for whatever there is that is available to transfer my earnings. Thank you!

I am new here but already I have learned alot about MyLot! I hope it isn't true! K have read the discussion you have mentioned, but did not reply. I think that I should worry more than you, because I have 2 referrals under me, but none have been active...lol....I really think that has to with the number of referrals you get,but the matter in which you get them.

i haven't sent out any invites as of yet. and i really don't know how the pay structure works around here, heven't completely figured it out yet. i PRAY you don't get booted cuz of too many referrels, that makes no sense. that's advertsing, isn't that what they want us to do?? good luck, keep us posted if you hear anything else.
