Do you get paid when going to the bathroom?

That's what I was trying to say here, thank you for elaborating it more!;) Those post only provides limited and sometimes misleading informations, especially when the one who responds to it doesn't exactly understand what mylot is all about. There are instructions, rules and guidelines available here, these is where they'd get lots of informations concerning the payment here. *I'm really sorry if the comment box on my profile page isn't still functioning well for you, I've been doing my best for the admin to fix it but still no action or response from them!:(*

I'm guessing some members don't even bother reading the Guidelines. As soon as they sign-up, they are too excited with the idea of being paid for their participation. I understand that some members are trying to boost their incomes by finding ways to earn online. I'm not hiding the fact that I was one of those who was first attracted with the idea of being paid for my participation here at MyLot. But as I go along with my participations and finding out that behind the promise of a payment, a member can really find something more worthwhile and more valuable. I've been here 8 months, and I've yet to reach my 800th post. Within those 8 months, I was only able to reach payout, three times. Sometimes I do have the extra time to do some MyLotting. But I stopped long ago to stop pushing myself to post discussions when I know for sure that the idea for a new discussion may not make any valuable contribution at all. You are so right in saying that joining MyLot should not only be about money...money...money. Because if that's the main purpose of a member, they are in for a big disappointment. If they are looking for a large amount of money to be earned, then this isn't the place. For 8 months of being a member of MyLot, I have learned that to be able to truly appreciate what this site has to offer, I need to put some heart in what I do. I know it may sound a little bit corny, but that's how I feel. And I don't mean putting some heart in always pushing myself to the limit for the sake of just earning the money. I mean, just doing what I sincerely LIKE TO DO and not what I NEED TO DO. So, that's what I'm doing. I may be at a slow pace for the number of posts I've made but those numbers were all worth it. And recently, I'm in the habit of uploading pictures of flowers. I don't just upload them for the sake of what I may earn, but because I think somebody else are enjoying looking at them. I like flowers myself and by uploading them, one by one, I'm learning in the process. Before, I'm only familiar with a handful of flowers. But now, when I see one, then I can name it correctly.

And just what Rocky Balboa says, "doing what ya gotta do!" =) It's the passion which pushes us through, we not only come here to post and post and receive payment. Sometimes, we also need to be serious if we really want to gain on something. Be it money, friends and informations. As for me, I just try to make some of my posts look and even sound funny. But sometimes it includes some sarcasm in it, not because I hate a certain person but because of what they do here. For those who cries foul in my discussions, then I guess they are guilty as charged. I've also been trying to upload some photos on the "interest" section again, since I find less and less discussions to post and even read here. Still, I have more options to enjoy mylot even if I don't post and participate on discussions much!;)

I agree with you jenn. A penny saved is a penny earned. And a penny earned is a penny you didn't have before. That's why I actually collect stray deposit containers around town when I see them. Hey, a nickel is a nickel, and some of the bottles are worth more than that, especially the glass ones and the larger glass ones. Maybe I make a dollar or two per month, but it's a dollar or two I didn't have before.

I believe most of them consider money as their life, don't you think?=) If these people were motivated and was raised worshipping money, then I believe that they can all dream about it but they'll never achieve their dreams of becoming rich and all if all they do is sit around joining forums or PTP sites..

I'll definitely be here if ever the time comes of us not getting paid here anymore, I see mylot as just one of those reasonable places to visit on the net.. There's more than just earning here, and that's what they should try exploring at..

It's really hard to keep people from not thinking too much about money, most of them are too hasty in getting paid and earning on this site. I just wish that people change their mind-set on this, sometimes we need to use our brain to think and pause for a while to understand what we want to know about this site even they do came here for the money.

Yep, I just had enough skipping these types of posts everytime I search on the "new discussions" section. Spamming with one-liner questions, they should've instead searched before posting it since most of them were already posted and have been discussed. It seems that you have wireless connection for that laptop, good for you to get paid!;)

Yes, there's more than to money here. If we just set aside those thought for a meantime, then I believe that we can have more topics to be discussed here..

Probably she could have sued them. It was a few years ago. Recently, and unfortunately, she passed away from cancer which was discovered to be generalized and in the fourth stage when they discovered it.

I believe that your friend can sue that company, since they are discriminating able workers. That's a very cheap excuse by that company, your friend deserves more than being treated like that..

Haha! Maybe you they just need a little tap on the shoulder, or it could be that they like more of being here!;) You're definitely right on that, I'm very sure that people will stop coming here and leave this site if ever mylot stopped paying our participations here. Those lame and shallow-minded folks should use their brains for sometime, for their brains would cost more if ever there's an option to sell them. Since they don't use much of it, they're slightly-used and can be considered as good as new!LoL

Hehehe! I do enjoy put a little humor with a little sarcasm on it, thank you for liking my closing remarks!;) There are times here where you get to see one-liner posts, some are flooding and spamming the discussion areas. And when I made an effort to respond to it, much more that I believe to at least take a credit for doing through a comment from that thread host and then see nothing, it frustrates me. The only post you'll get to see is another post and another and another, that's what others do here -making mylot as their source of living!;)LoL

We do have the same principles and stand on this one, I'm really glad I've met you and the rest of the people who are here responsibly doing their contributions.. Thank you so much my friend, hope to see, hear and learn something from you soon!;)

Yes...those one-liners speak volumes about why the person is here. If they read the guidelines they'd discover that Mylot doesn't pay for one-liners...so they are defeating their purpose right off the top. Those of us who love the site..and the wonderful community of members that make it up gain so much more than a few pennies a post. I am here when I am not working to earn waaaaay better earnings writing for magazines...because I value the connections I've made here. That is something money cannot buy...and it is what keeps me coming back. Having good Cyber friends like you shows that when we live by right principles things work for the good of the all. Take care...and we will be in touch. Raia

It seems that there are people who are too serious in earning money, even here on the net they consider being here as business. Indeed, the love for this money is what makes people desperate and evil. What I mean is, there are lots of things to talk about other than money. We do get paid here, which makes me think why are they bothered if ever they experience some deductions here as well as not getting paid by simply doing other things..

i don't follow this too much..and i don't even know how to see if there was deductions made as this is not important to me..as all things ..this will pass away as most things..but i will just enjoy the time here reading the discussins and commenting..even though i think i probably am achieving nada..but maybe? even if one person gains some insight it would have been worth it..as maybe you just plant a seed in the mind of someone... have a nice day..its always fun to come here..that is the main ting..FUN

I'm not really sure if mylot deceived me or any other members who's been here for a long time, but I'm pretty sure that it could be you who was deceived by whoever told you that you'll get rich here quick. Using and being familiar of the English language is just one of the million good reasons why we spend time here on mylot, same with money.

Nice to know that you understood what being here is all about, you'll earn here only if you are willing. Anyways, welcome to mylot and hope that you'd enjoy your time here..

I love all the commenting and conversing we have, though I know that we don't get paid for it. i do it for the purpose of having fun, where we can also share more than what we know at each other without worrying or thinking of what'll we get from it!;) Thanks to you also, my pangga!=)

True, being here is like stress-reliever for all those who works and looks for something more productive while relaxing at home. I guess I'll be seeing you around here, good luck and welcome to mylot!;)
