Well being it is so close to payday for myLot members I have seen my points and my earnings fluctuate a lot on and off all day today. So I wouldn't be surprised if the email about being paid comes today or tomorrow for most us. Have you noticed your earnings and points fluctuating at all today? Mine has gone up 45 cents at one point then I saw it go down 38 cents. I've also seen my points lose a few than gain them right back as well. It's funny seeing this happen as I refresh the page a lot.

You know, I sign in in the morning and keep looking at my earnings until they update them and then I no longer look..But I know that pay day is coming and I did better this month than I did any other month..

Oh I guess we get paid once a month, I wasn't sure I've only been on here a few days. Seems like you have to do alot of posting to earn some good money. I think I earned 20 cents in a few days, I guess I wont get rich of this site thats for sure.

The more you work at it the easier it becomes to earn a decent amount daily. I have earned $3 in a day here a few times so you can make nearly $100 a month with dilligent hard work. Keep at it.

Yes I have noticed the earnings going up and down for me too, but I do not even want to talk about my points, I am still sore that I have lost so many over the past week! I am quite excited though because this will be my first pay and although it is not a fortune it is money that will be going towards my holiday at the end of next month so I am pleased about it as every little helps!!

I do about a couple members whose whole set of discussions were deleted so if you were friends with them that could explain the loss of so many points. I've heard of some members losing close to 100 points in a days time here due to this.

I have not taken notice. In fact I never thought it would change at all during the day. I thought our earnings were "posted" just once each day.
I have known my pints to fluctuate in those days that I used to check.
I never thought our earnings would fluctuate during the day though. Interesting. I must check.
Overall, I have been pleased to see that my earnings have been improving. One day last week I even earned $1.23.

I forgot all about that $20 deal. I never heard nor saw anything along those lines recently. I had my earnings go up just over $2 for March in the process of the updating yesterday. Sweet!

CRASH has a discussion about the way they now update the earnings. There's a link on the previous page here. I think #17 maybe. But they now changed the way the earnings are distributed somewhat. Big change it seems. It rewards the better quality posting members.

Hell, I didn't know that. Must have missed his discussion somehow. I didn't get a message warning or anything.
I will check out the link. Thanks.
By the way, Crash was going to reward someone with $20 for the very first discussion he did (the best response). Did you ever see who won this?

Yes, Grandpa Bob, I was noticing the same thing and I see you were right - I got paid! I was trying to figure out which post or posts had been deleted since I'd lost about 3 points but the next time I looked they were back, so I have no clue as to what's going on. I think myLot likes to mess with out minds!

My earnings haven't fluctuated any but last week, I noticed no increase in pay at all for a day. As if mylot forgot about me or something when they updated the earnings.

If you refresh the page an update can be seen if it happens to your account. Each time you post, respond, or comment or any other activity on mylot that renews the page. My earnings have gone up a few more cents since I've been adding comments here.

I have seen mine rise toady. I haven't been on as much as usual and I only noticed this an hour ago. Mine has went 'up' 6 cents.
I wonder why it does this at this time of the month. Always near payday.

I check my amount when I first log in each day and after that, I just forget about it until the next day. I am usually too busy posting to pay attention to whether it is going up or down. I am more into talking lol.

Yes, I have been noticing this too. I usually don't start discussions, so I did today and that's when I noticed it fluctuating. So I thought it was for the responses I was getting to the discussion I started. Currently I am up 20 cents from where I started this morning, though it has dropped a few and then gone back up five cents this last time. I haven't paid any attention to the posts, but I have to the earnings. I guess I will have to look at that too!

Hi GRANDPA BOB! I have just also responded to another post regarding the earnings here at mylot today. She has noticed her earnings increasing every hour and that is great is it not? as long as it is increasing! LOL! I guess, I really didn't pay much attention on my earnings at the moment because I am the one who is "fluctuating" (LOL!) here in mylot, err, I mean to say, I have been doing disappearing acts here in mylot most of the time lately! haha.. Just my thoughts. Take care and have a nice day! :)

yeah, I also wondered a lot back then. during these two weeks I kept seeing my earning fluctuated. First it was down several cents and I was surprised to see that the next day I checked that it was up again, sometimes it was the opposite, I got more cents but later it was down several cents.
but anyway, I have read Crash's discussion just now and I'm really glad that myLot still rewards us for posting good response even if the discussion was deleted. happy posting too!!

http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1470826.aspx
When discussions are deleted and those people lose their earnings from them, those earnings are re-distributed to the membership. How cool is that?
I love my myLot!

Grandpa, I am glad that it is payday for you.. Hope you have done very well, but tell me, why would your earnings fluctuate so much.. It would seem to me that there would be no way to go but up.. For what reason would your earnings go down??

Earnings decrease for having a discussion or responses etc. deleted for violating the guidelines. Read this link for info on the updating of earnings. Payday is soon, not today though.

I noticed my points were all weird the other day but then realized that I'd lost some points when Tins discussions were deleted....but my earnings went up 20cents since yesterday...
Is that a pattern, that right before payout the earnings and points etc go all flippy floppy?? I'd not noticed...

Well, I am really excited to recieve my first payment since I am new to this. Basically I have not posted much since I am quite busy with work most of the time. Though there are cases, that I visit myLot and just read the discussion most especially from my friends. But I will try to do more posting once I have enough time and when I am not so busy with work. Nevertheless, despite my little earnings, I really enjoyed it here and is looking forward to post more.

This happend every month when payday comes. They delete some discussions those are violate their policies. So if you respond to that discussion then your earnings will be deducted. So this is not a big issue. You will se this every month.
So enjoy your payout.
