Hey, I was wondering if anyone could explain to me how the earnings part of this site works? Is it based on how many posts you make? If so, how many posts do people make before they see earnings? I love the place anyway, and have every intention of staying, but I am curious about how the earnings are calculated.
Also, can anyonetell me what the stars with the numbers on the posts mean?
Cheers :)

Thanks for answering me. I looked in the FAQ section, and could find nothing. I guess it's not a place to earn a living, simply a little spare change :) It's fun though, and it's much better than wasting time in a meaningless chat room, where you don't gain any benefits! I guess I'll just keep typing away and I'll watch the tally and hope to see something there soon :)

AbsentStare,welcome to MyLot. I see you are new. I have been here for 8 months, and know some things. One, becareful what you post, or MyLot will delete them, and everyone on them, and your points go down, ( 26 )That is next to your name. Each time you answer a post, that number goes up one. You get 1 or 2 cents depending on what they want to give you. The quality and lenth of it. You get one cent for uploading a pic, but it must be a picture to the conversation. You don't get for posting anymore, but something after a few people respond, they may give a penny. The structure has changed a lot from the beginning. They paid more, and the rules weren't as strict. You are not allowed to discuss the money either. It is important, while you don't have lots of numbers, to respond back to everyone that answers your posts, if possible. They do not allow "Thank you" only. You do not have to answer everyone. But, you should rate them. That is where your star number comes from. It is how much your friends like you, nothing to do with money up or down. Number 1 is least liked, 10 is best. But, lots of people get jealous, or don't understand, and will give a neg. mark, and your star number goes down. You will not get a star until you hit more numbers. I forgot the amount. 100 or 500. The +-! next to the name, is where you rate someone. + if you liked the answer and they took the time to respond well, - if it is a one word or one lners. ! to turn them in if they were abusive or broke rules. The "best response" can only be given to one person. So, pick the person you liked best, and rate them with it. I hope I have helped you. Email me if you need more help. God bless you sugar. Have fun. M&M

Hi sugar, thank you for the best response. I am not on here a lot, so sorry for the delay to get back to you. I also do not get notifications from MyLot.
To answer your question, no, nobody will know who rated them what. Only the "best response" comes through. If you break a rule, you will either get a warning from myLot though email. Or, you will see your numbers in the ( ) next to your name, go down without an explaination. God bless, and thanks again. M&M

Hi :)
Thankyou so much for your help, it was all really good advice. I didn't realise you are not allowed to discuss the money, so that is good to know! Also, I wasn't aware how to rate, so thanks for that also :)
One more question, does the person get to see what you rated them? Or is it an anonymous thing?
As for the jealousy thing, with people giving a negative ratin out of spite..I guess that is the nature of any internet site where people are interacting. It's sad that you get people like that, but I suppose it's something you get used to. Lol
Again, thanks for your comment, it was very helpful :)
