I cant really say I am doing it just for the fun of it so if I get a few pennies or dollars a month all the better for me. Nobody can make a full time income at this on mylot just my oppinion. so just enjoy and have fun and you will make a little money

I think People will do anything for a few Cents as it will add up over time .I See them alot to posting one line Discussions about stupid thigs.But to make some good money on Mylot you must post good Posts not just one liners. They go buy quality not quanity. So I like to make nice Posts about things that I like and do not just anwser stupid posts like some that I see like how to use a computer.
Anyway I could go on forever.
Have a Great Day/Night.

Any site like this is only as active and good as we make it. I enjoy posting on message boards so this is right up my alley, I can get paid for what I already do. I won't post on a discussion just for the couple of cents that I can make, but may post when I wouldn't on another board to a topic that I may only just read elsewhere.
If you've read any of my other posts and responses you know I have some pretty strong beliefs and opinions, many don't agree with the norma. If the topic gets a good response and people will think, I feel good about what I wrote.
I don't know how myLot was more then 2 months ago as that was when I joined, but as I have seen in other boards, it's usually not the posts but the memory. When you first get here you are excited to post. Yeah you only get a few cents per post, but it adds up. I've had days with 3 or 4 cents, I think my best day was about 70 cents. But I don't post for the money. As I said above, that is just a bonus. Now you have seen what can happen, and it becomes old hat. You see the same things over and over, you see some who only post a couple of lines for the money, but you also see quality posts that make you think. People remember those posts, but they see the one liners.
I don't think it changed for the worse, it is all in the minds and memories of those posting. They remember the good and sift out the drab.

Some people do go a bit nutty even for pennies, as it does add up after a while. Personally I think that is just a perk to the whole process. I love the interaction, even when it gets a lil harry, as all things are possible in these discussions.

I just joined last week so I can't really say if it's changed or not. I can only speak for myself but I really enjoy coming on here and posting and replying. I like posting things that I think that people will enjoy and what I would like to see other people's opinions on. Things that make you think and things that people's opinions vary on. Sometimes I have actually changed my opinion about something because someone posted a reply to me and made an excellent point.

first of all, i want to welcome you to mylot... i have been a faithful member of this site since october last year and i have seen many changes... yes... some are good and some are bad... but generally, i wouldn't say that mylot has gone for the worst... it is not... about the earnings, i also earn pennies everyday... but just remember one thing... pennies will accumulate to become dollar and dollar will accumulate to become hundreds of dollar and so on if you want to be patient and persevere... i had experienced it myself and i had started to see the outcome now... just enjoy yourself and have fun here... treat the earning as a bonus... and you will be happy... :-)

as we know mylot is a free earning program and at the same time a community of people from different cultures, races and beliefs interacting with each other through posting of topics and blogs, responding to discussions and blogs, uploading photos based from one's interests.
generally, as i have been telling other mylotters, i am here to gain friends, gain experiences and ideas from them through the discussions, and the last, but not the least, gain incentives that mylot usually gives us.

I've been with myLot for about a couple of months now. I haven't been paid because I haven't reached the $10 mark. BUT, I am NOT complaining. Aside from the motivation that I get in this site doing posts and responding to discussions, I get to meet a lot, learn a lot, practice my typing skills and speed, and putting my English to good use. (English is not my native dialect.) I guess the money matter is a reward stuff.

Well some of the posts I find are rather ridiculous in that you have to be a moron to ask that. I do think that some myLotters believe that the more they post, they more they shall receive, financially that is. I don't do that many posts, mostly responses, because I do not just pick problems out of the air or invent questions. I have no idea what myLOT was but why cannot people ask more serious question instead of "should I break up with my boyfriend," or "my baby pouted when I picked her up. Does she hate me?"
