I am beginning to think I don't have any friends on here anymore. Although listed on myLot, I show I have 235 friends, but yet, in the past 2 days I have not received ONE emial notification of discussions started or responded to by one of my friends, so what happened??
Did all my friends leave? Are they are on vacation? Do I need more friends in order to respond to discussions?
Will you be my friend??

I don't know what's going on. I haven't received any email notifications from mylot either, in 2 or 3 days. It's hard to check on everybody's discussions, without them. It must be a glitch or something. I am so disappointed when I check my mail, and don't have any mylot messages. Take care.

I have also heard that notifications haven't been working for some people.

There for a few days, I was getting lots of email notifications, and now, none. I just find out by going back to some of my discussions, to see if anyone has responded to me. I'm sure I'm missing alot of them, and I hate to. I really like to respond back, especially to my friends.

Apparently you must have me set at "notify off."
I've put out a couple new discussions within the past couple of days.

I am not so sure why you are not receiving notifications. I rarely start discussions because I would just prefer to respond to others. Perhaps it is just a slow time with school in the states starting back up and people being busy. I think that you still have friends, I just think maybe it is a slow time right now. I am sure that things will pick up soon :)
I am here! lol

Perhaps it is a slow time, but for instance, I started this discussion, and I got one response, yet when you come online to myLot I had 13 responses, but wait, what happened to the 12 notifications that someone responded to my discussion, perhaps they got lost in cyberland or myLot failed to send them, whatever the case may be, I am not receiving notifications.
Thanks for responding my friend, it is always appreciated.

Perhaps it is just a glitch in the scripts. It does happen sometimes whether your alerts are on or not. I have heard a lot of complaints these past few weeks about not receiving notifications now that I think about it. Anyhow, as you can see..your friends are still here! And you are quite welcome for the response.

I write to myLot, but I never hear a response. Like this discussion I started, I got ONE response to my email that someone had responded, yet when I come on myLot I have alot more responses than one, thanks for responding, my friend, it is always appreciated!

Some of my friends I think are too lazy to start a discussion. Maybe this happened to your friends too. I noticed that some of my friends started a discussion like a month ago. I am glad to be your friend. God bless!

I thought that too, that perhaps they were on vacation until I came to myLot and saw all the discussions going on without me, thank for responding, my friend, it is truly appreciated!

It just like at school where there is "recess", may be they go to the canteen, and some to toilet and maybe some of them join their friends at football field.
But don't worry, once the bell ringing they will come back for class again. There are all of your best friend.
Nothing that I can give at the moment as a remedy for your loneliness.....only a 'little flower' and hopefully you will accept it. And don't worry, if reject it, it is forgivable.

I've found that most of my email notifications aren't coming in by looking at the recent discussions mark thing on the side there, but i just haven't had the time or energy to do anything but read the stuff that comes here on the computer at all
i hope you don't take it too personally, it's been so long, and i really miss everyone, maybe hopefully soon i'll be back with bounds of energy to type from :D
luv ya gal

Soo good to see you Ash, how are you doing these days, I miss chatting with you. I have not been on here as much as I used to be, but found when I came back that the discussions were what they used to be either.
Take care, my friend!

yeah it has been quite some time, i'm doing okay, just got over this dreaded morning sickness, and the doctors still don't know what's going on, i'm going in on the 31st to see if my obgyn can find a baby, woot woot, that would be wonderful, but i'm past the 3 months if i am, and my tummy's getting bigger by day, ouch, haha.... who knows what it could be.... i think maybe baby, especially since i start spotting every time i take an allergy pill, so i stopped taking those.
anyway yeah things have changed here, no one's getting their discussions, it really kinda sucks, one of my friends is even finding his stuff is being deleted at every crossroad even though he's following all the rules, whatever....
come on yahoo some time and we can blab, miss ya hun.

Hi Texasclassygal, I think part of it is that the notifications arent working right all of the time, part alot of people are on vacation and I think some people are getting bored with mylot and some are just getting tired of getting there discussions deleted. I havent gone anywhere and I dont plan to and I'll be your friend if you would like. I have scores of inactive friends to so I know the feeling. I'll send a request. Take care, Terry

Thanks Terry, I am hoping it will be fixed soon, I had 4 emails this morning from myLot but you would think I would have alot more than 4, especially since people have been responding to this discussion, but yet I was not notified of them responding, oh well, hopefully soon. Thanks for contributing to my discussion, it is truly appreciated.

Dearie, because people are not active here anymore. :P
I am quite impressed by you, to be honest - because I still receive email notifications of your discussions. You are one of the last few who are still starting discussions. :PP

So good to see you Lordwarwizard ... feels like forever, I hate it how people are dropping off of here, of course, I understand it, but it still makes it hard. Thanks for coming by my discussion and let's keep up with each other, even though most are leaving.
Be well, my friend!

I share your same sentiment as I have noticed most of my friends have either retired or no longer as active. However, instead of inviting more friends, I just scout around for non-friend's discussions. And hey, I get friend's requests. At least, I know they are sincere to be friends with me, hopefully. LOL.
P.S. If you have not received any notifications, perhaps there are some active friends whom you have not set notification on?

Nope, I checked, that is the first place I went to see if my notifications were on, I knew they were, since I had just turned them back on from being on a vacation, but the notifications never came when I turned them back on, sad really, hope all my friends are still here and it is truly just another myLot glitch.
Be well, my friend!

Hello texasclassygal,
You are not alone. Some of our friends here including myself are having the same problem. Normally I receive at least 30 notifications from My Lot daily as I have around 70 friends here. But these few days, I only received less than 10. Most of my responses were not being commented and I don't get all the responses to my discussions through my Yahoo Mail. I think there is some glitches here. As of now, I only received 2 notifications of new discussions of one of my friends. Isn't it amazing? Hopefully the problem will be fixed soon. I am tired to check manually all my discussions to see whether I receive any new responses or not *sad*

Yeah I was used to waiting up to 40 or 50 emails a day to NONE, and I check my spam and everything, nothing from myLot you would think with so many friends that I would have one email, I keep checking to make sure they have not suspended my account, but NOPE, I am still here. Thanks for responding, it is truly appreciated.

I think a lot of people are not working on My Lot so much now. The earnings are way too low, & I guess they are looking for other programs to earn from.
Some people have left My Lot altother.
I still love My Lot, but haven't started any discussions for two to threee days. I have done some responses, but not as many as usual due to being very busy.

Two or three days, it had been weeks since I had started a discussions, I have noticed I don't have the motivation for come here like I used to, but I also enjoy reading the emails from the discussions of my friends, and hated it that it was gone. Thanks for coming by, my friend, it is truly appreciated.

I'm having the same problem. I was notified that my response was commented on once today but the last one I got was Friday. I started two discussions tonight but have only gotten ONE response to one of them. It seems like I may have been forgotten (temporarily, I hope!)
On the other hand, I have had glitches before where I just haven't received the notifications. Sometimes they don't get through at all and sometimes they've gone into my bulk mail. On a discussion I started a few days ago I only got two notifications of responses but when I checked it I had several more.

I have been somewhat slack lately on responding to any discussion, but since I fell in love with your avatar, I applied to be a friend! I think I'm not the only one who has reduced their time on myLot. I can't speak for others, but I have been busy doing other things and have not been as interested lately. That will no doubt change soon. Hope you get some good responses and many new friends!

I do respond on discussions even if I'm not a friend, any posted topic that has attracted my interests. I am not notified by friends but I go to discussions started by friends and there I could pick up newly posted discussions from them.

We all have our preferences of responding to discussions, I enjoy getting notified in email, I am hoping it is a glitch in the system and will be returned soon. Thanks for responding, it is truly appreciated.

Yeah, most of my friends have left too, but there are still a few here left, just I don't get notifications anymore, if they don't want to send us notifications they should tell us that feature is no longer available, not give it to us and then don't send us the emails, so lame.
Thanks for responding, it is truly appreciated.
