The spirit of mylot is dampned nowadays

Yes, its correct, interesting topics are hard to come by. Most are basically the same, just phrased differently. And then there are the inane ones like ‘ do you love your hubby? What color lenses do you wear?’ so on and so forth. It becomes specially difficult for people who would like to participate in meaningful discussions, on which you can write something or maybe debate on. But there are still some who do post interesting topics and it also feels nice to be able to say Hi to friends once in a while.

Well sorry but I don't agree with your view points. Might be because this is what you are feeling about mylot.. My feelings are almost different from what you feel. For me mylot is a fun place from the day I joined mylot and it's still rocking.

Many myLotters are on holidays now. Also some of the recent discussions by some newcomers are the type that one dare not answer because I know I do not want to be invited to inappropriate sites because they assume--and neither do a lot of myLotters so some posts are not answered. In other words, they are meant to shock. Some posts are very limited, in that only a few can answer them. We are getting selective in that we do not answer every post. Then there is the pay rate going down, and that makes a difference because even you say, the money is not important, you or someone else in your family paid for the computer, there is the isp,etc. I suppose you say the money does not matter and you would be on myLot even if it did not pay, but. you could ask myLot to put a "donate my earnings to ---myLot" or "give my money to a charity" if you think the making money is damaging the spirit. But I am a writer, I love making money this way, and I see no conflict between earning money and writing on myLot. So I have not lost it.

i think you are right, i also have some friends who don't reply to my discussions and also don't start new discussion often and some of them don't even log in. i think mylot should do something about it to regain the spirit of people in posting, like adding new features to mylot and giving money as per the quality of discussion and deleting the accounts of people who don't login after 3-4 months.

I haven't been here long enough to know for sure, but i think maybe the reason for the slowdown in topics maybe due to the season. Nice weather and people are out and about more and spend less time on the computer. I think the spirit will return.

This is a very intersting Blog. By the way, i came here because I saw you had posted on my Blog, I also read AT LEAST one Blog of those who leave one comment on mine.

For a lot of people it's summer time. There are plenty of outdoor activities. Maybe a lot of mylotters are busy with family outings. Or they could be burned out and need a little break. Sorry, just trying to look on the bright side. I know I'm guilty of straying away and coming back.

hello there ibsnet!. i am very saddened to know how you feel about mylot nowadays. i myself am not so active here compared to the past months.. well.. mylot is basically a site where people can make extra money, it has gained its popularity because of its capability to pay people to share their ideas and to communicate. from that point of view, the relationship established here becomes secondary to the earnings. a drop in the earnings of the people has a high probability in causing people here in mylot to lose their vigor in answering posts and making new discussions. i myself am guilty of that and i am also saddened because the earnings that i can have has become the primary reason why i am here. this opinion is just how i come to see things and i wish to share it with you. thanks for the nice discussion..

I have been here for many months already and there are just a lot of things happening in my life right now that prevented me from being more active here. I still love being here and as I said this has become my outlet and venue to know some people across the world. I may not be as active as before but I am still staying here just the same.

No I dont feel the same. I think mylot really rocks and the spirit is dancing.LOL. Add more friends and you'll have a great time...

WELL whe have to admit that most of the members came here because of the earnings and became addictive because the environment is very nice... But then since mylot suddenly changed their scheme, many of these active members became inactive and became disappointed right... They tend to seek for other better forum in the internet and stick to there.. right now Im more active on the other site than here..

yeah I agree too compare for the last week before my earning a lot better now becoming less. and also I check on my friends who post the discussion not many. I don't know why? are they busy or what? for me I like to discuss here even I don't have much time but everyday except for the weekend I have to check on mylot.

Whats wrong with mylot discussions are most of them are very morbid and hard to respond to. I am a new member to mylot and I could not find one article but this one to respond to. I agree with this article, we need more happy interesting articles to answer to .

yes you are right ...... earnings are not updated regularly and the discussions are not that important.... if you wish lets form a group like " mylot come back " and post fruitful discussions...by gathering some of our buddies in mylot.

There are lots of reasons that make people leave or become less active than before. I still think that the earning at myLot is still the best compared to others that offer to give more but you have to follow so many rules just to earn and get paid. As for me, I have become less active not because I am tired of myLot but because my wife just gave birth to my first baby boy in April and since then, most of my time have been dedicated to the baby. Apart from that, the increase in workload at the office has also contributed to my absence. However, when I can find a minute or two, I will be back to participate in the discussions here at myLot. Have a nice day!

Well I have only joined this week, so I guess I was never part of the "spirit" you speak of. Maybe you could try inviting some more interesting people?? But after all, there are only so many discussions to be had, it seems like you have had your share of them...

why the spirit of mylot is dampned ? what is going on ?
