I got this myLot friend, or I had but he is now deleted. He is one of those people who will post 5-10 discussions a day. Right, I can cope with that as I do not have to reply to them all if i don't want to. But as it is I have actually responded to quiet a few of his discussions over the past month, but never got a reply back from him. So I'm sat here thinking what is the point, this bloke never reply to your contributions anyway and thinking about it, he never responded to ONE of my discussions.
Now there can be many reasons for this and giving this bloke the benefit of the doubt i thought i would go have another look at his discussions. I mean, he could as well have responded but I not received the notification mail, that have happened to most of us. So I went to have a look and was chocked and disgusted with what I found.
This guy have posted more than 50 discussions with at least 30 most far more responses, which for him of course is great. But more than half of his discussions with this high reply he has not responded to one single post. UNBELIEVABLE. I'ts not only me, but everybody he's is taking the piss on. I figured out that this guy somehow is managing to get plenty of referals and that explains the high number of responses he gets.
But wtf is wrong with you people? How long are you going to allow this bloke to abuse your time and engagement before you say stop? Well, I tell you today I had enough and sacrificed our 'friendship', I have no time for people like this. What about you? How far would you go before you decide that enough is enough and stop wasting your time.
PS This bloke have posted more than 400 discussions, but have only been awarded for 523 responses. I find this a disgrace and an insult to all other members. 523 responses, it say's everything: This bloke is a joke.

You're not talking to me are you? lol I try to respond as much as I can but even when I don't have the time, the least you can do, is say thank you. Anyways I really feel this has alot to do with mylot not rewarding members with $ responses. Unfortunatley most ppl post here on mylot for the money only so it doesn't make sense to keep posting and not get credit for it. Until Mylot changes this rule it will unfortunatley continue. Even 3 responses = 1 post is better than notthing.

Lol mara. No I do not talk about you :) I think you are on to something here and I think it will be the downfall of myLot. They call it a discussion site but it is anything but. I have seen lots of good people disappearing over the past 6 months, some coz they got banned, some coz they got fed up with the dictatorship of the myLot adm and yet some who did not think it was worth all the hassle.
I know some people are here only for the money (this bloke obviously is): I ain't. To me it is more about meeting new people and give/receive response and advice on a issue. The money after all is a joke. The childslaves in China earns more than you will ever earn on here.

that was really bad and so lazy of him and unfair. it's more like taking advantage of his referrals. i have referrals too but i don't depend on them. and i'd rather earn by myself because i get to enjoy talking to different people at the same time. ^__^

I know you do whatever you can to respond to your discussions hunni. That is why i reply to you too. I do appreciate that you cannot always be on top of it, but this bloke doesn't even seem to care full stop. He starts the discussions and then leave it to all the referrals he obviously have to let them make him money. I find this a disgrace and feel that he abusing his friends7referrals and the whole idea of myLot. This is a discussion site, but this guy is a discussion killer.

I have friends who have not posted one post, but do mainly responses. I do not like it when someone just posts and does not comment on the responses. It sort of stops the topic. But I guess that since he is mainly making his money from referrals that he does not have to worry too much about myLotting. He can just put in the token number of posts and feels he does not have to do anymore. At least, he should comment on some more responses. I guess only one person replied to each of his posts. If someone did that to me, I would be very upset.

The most weird thing about this bloke is that despite his lacking interest in replying to his discussions, he still have more than 50 comments in quiet a few of his discussions. That was the reason why I called this discussion: Wtf is wrong with you people. They, like I did, keep replying tho they never get anything back from him.

Morning kim. I understand your point about this topic. There is the possibility to have such a user who only post new discussions and never or seldom responds to their friends' discussions. I think that I also have such friends here. hehe.

I just wont have it Will. As you know I'm not on myLot as often and when I am, I will reply to my friends discussions, but also always check up on my own discussions, to see if I missed any responses.

Hello kim. Yes, I also check my own discussions to see if I miss responding to my friends' response as well. We do the same, kim. Good night, my dear friend.

That is annoying. I have found a couple like that and got rid of them. I have notification on for my friends and reply to their discussions first. Usually I recognize my real good friends first that tend to respond to my posts and reply to my comments. There are about maybe 20 people I seem to chat with often here and find they do the same to me. Like you Kim. :)
Taking me some time to catch up on discussion cause I wasn't on for a few days because the loss of power.

Yeah i know that Vic and it is the same here, though i will do whatever I can to respond to everybody who took the time. But of cause my friends comes first, :P.
I do not mind not getting the responses to my contributions straight away as we all have a life to live too and can't be here all the time. I might not respond before after a week or so, but eventually i will. Greetings my friend. :)

Hello Kim,
Nice to hear from you. I have turned my notification off because some people post discussion after discussion and have not once responded to mine or even left a comment. I post to a lot of discussions of people on my friends list. Some respond some don't. I mainly respond if the discussion interests me or I feel I could contribute something. I guess people who are on Mylot have different agendas.
Merry Christmas to you and your family.

Perhaps he is a joke. But I must explain myself as well. I have been on myLot for a while now, but only occasionaly as time permits. I didn't realize for quite a while that I could respond back so perhaps he is dumb like me lol. Now I do try to reserve a bit of time , usually on a sunday to respond back to people who have responded to me, and to respond to friend discussions, rather than just hit the discussion button at the top. Thanks for sharing. Have a great day.

Hey City. Thanks for your contribution. This bloke ain't as dumb as you think you are. He has been a member for more than 7 month and he is pretty active. Spending time on here every day. I can see that from the notification mails I receive

I would be glad to delete that member, since I don't have any GOOD use of him. I hate people like that, who starts tons of discussions but never took time to comment on those who responded to their discussion. Obviously, he's really out for the money and not for contributing Quality discussion.
As for others, I also avoid those who only posts discussions and never responded nor commented on the responses they recieve. I get totally pi$$ed off by that, if mylot would only allow, I'd start a post about them and name all of those worthless members who only post for the sake of MONEY..
But then again, I can only pray for them because they are really pitiful and pathetic leeches that lives a desperate life!LoL

You do not have any use of such people raij, neither good or bad. He obviously is in it for the money, which ain't against the rules, most people are. But most people also pay attention to their friendships by interacting with them. Only condolence is that hopefully his referrals and friends hopefully will get fed up with him eventually.
One thing I can't understand though, is that he is not actually breaking the rules. But this is a discussion site and apart from starting the discussions, he does not contribute what so ever, I cannot understand that myLot will put their names to this. But then again, there is so much I do not understand about myLoy, lol.
Thanks for your response. Have a nice day :)

I guess that's what he's trying to do. post as many responses and as many topics because for both he got paid. so he doesn't bother commenting on responses since he already got paid for those responses he got anyway. if he NEVER comments you back you know it's not worth it. I have friends that do not comment my responses, but they only do that sometimes, not always.

Thing is though Mel, that he do not respond at all. All he does is post new discussions. He posted more than 400 of them, but so far I have only seen him reply to 3-4 of them and that was when he first started on myLot 8 months ago.

It seems that he is just here to post and make money. He doesn't give a hoot about his friends. I know that there are discussions that I have started and I have tried to reply to all but with my hectic schedule, it is difficult to be online all the time. I do try, and it seems that he just doesn't care at all.

That is so right Stu, he don't give a hoot, so therefore do not deserve to be on my friends list. Of course you can't always have the time to catch up, but at least you can try. This bloke is not trying at all. He is too busy posting and get referals to answer his posts. What a pathetic sad lowlife.

WTF, I hope this discussion is not about me. hahaha I don't spend time on a site that doesn't pay, and this one doesn't. I have been locked out of my account several times in the past 7 months and decided to go to another site that pays better. hahaha

Hi there! When I was a newbie, I'd thought reading response to your discussion is enough. Then, I figured it out, it would be much better to answer or give comments to reponders as this would enhance clarification on their querries, alive discussion,and a learning experience for the writer and responder as the communication is a two way process.
Wasting time to something makes one useless and pointless. And that is where emptiness looms and anger arise that your importance to your contribution is countless. So what I'd say is FORGET it and better to focus your energy to a positive thing that builds your character as well as self worth.
Goodluck!
