I made this milestone yesterday and as a reward what do i get ? 20 hours of internet blackout thanks to my internet provider. Well this can be really annoying especially when you are motivated to use the internet (like i was). I had hoped to reach payout today as well, not just the 500th post, but i missed it by a few cents.

Hi.. Hey its really sad to know that after reaching that milestone you were restricted to carry on like that. Even i crossed that milestone hardly 3 days back. Infact, when i was below the 500 mark, I used to crave for it and use to think that it would perhaps reduce my typing. But i don't find any difference.
I hardly find anything to copy and paste over here. Infact,if i would copy and paste then it won't be original.. Isint it?
Anyway, I have already crossed my payout for this month, lets see how far can i extend it to ?? Don't worry man,even you have another 9 days before this month ends and you can earn more then what i can. Because i will be away from mylot for perhaps a week since i am going home and i don't have free access to internet over there..
So keep posting and all the very best from my side !!

Ya, It used to be the problem with me too. Slow internet connection would frequently cause problems for me.after wring down the whole response, the internet connection would time out. But now, it would make it easier.

Hi my dear friend. I thank you for your nice thoughts. I think the copy paste function will be very useful when i write something and i get an error or the internet fails to connect or something, because before it is lost i used to copy it to a notepad document and then copy it (8 words again and again), so now i can copy it back in whole with no stress.
Take care !

I AM VERY HAPPY FOR YOU MY FRIEND!!! though I am so far from you... I am really wishing all the best and as I saw you near 500 I knew that you'll be reaching it no time soon and You did. I am so sorry for the internet black out. I still believe you'll reach your payout this month. Trust me because I do trust that you will. By the way, THANK YOU SO MUCH for greeting my mom. You made her smile. She wants to extend her thanks to you as well. Take care my friend and again thank you for everything you've done not just for me but for my mom also.

What caused the 20 hours of internet blackout?
Oh yeah, that can really be very annoying especially when it happens at a time when you need it the most. Well, it's great that you have reached the 500 mark. That means that you can now copy and paste. Congratulations on your new achievement! Good luck to you and happy posting!

Well, i don't know to this hour, but the internet provider's employee who was supposed to take care of it, wouldn't even respond to his mobile phone, so that's what really made me mad. Luckily i know another guy in that firm, with who i work with (i post weekly some flyiers for the internet firm) so i called him, and he called the other guy, and finally he fixed it.

I am so sorry you big moment was ruined by an internet disruption, then you lost pay out on top of it. I am so sorry. On a lighter note you can now copy and paste and put pictures in others post.

Congrats to you as well - kind of funny to do the happy dance . Well, now it is working, so i managed to give some responses. I must admit it did ruined the moment for me, because last night when it finally started working, i was not in the mood any more to post, so i did most of my posting today.
Thanks for commenting here friend !

Well, i try to post as much as i can but now it depends. If i really know something on the respective topic, i may post 10-15 lines, if i don't know that much, but the topic belongs to a friend, i try to do a minimum of 4-5 lines. Sometimes i can only get 2 lines because it's not much to talk about.
The number of posts were made in 1 month.

Congratulations on reaching 500!! I'm about halfway there lol. It must suck to have that internet blackout! The same thing happened to me a few weeks ago (thanks to Verizon). And it was due to a clerical error. They thought I hadn't payed my bill and so they shut it off without notice. But when I called to verify, it turns out that I did pay my bill on time and that it was their mistake. Blech.

Wow, amazing! 500 posts! Well done. I'm still going for my 100. Too bad you had a blackout. That must have been pretty bad. I would have gone up to the providers and complained straight away. I guess seeing number of posts you've got, you could've got your payout. I'm still quite a bit away from my payout. I only have $1.02 currently but of course it'll increase soon enough. Hopefully I could get my payout with 500 posts(if that's possible). Sometimes I just have to ignore the earnings so I can enjoy Mylot a bit more. Otherwise it gets a bit boring and that's not good. It's good to discuss interesting things here. =)
