I've been busy lately with the new book (yea!), but I haven't been active on here because of it (boo!). What is the longest streak you have had staying off MyLot? Do you ever get "burned out" here? Do you ever have a MyLot "writer's block"?
I'm curious how everyone else approaches MyLot!

I think the longest that I have been inactive at Mylot was for about six months. I still came here every now and then a posted or responded to others but I was mostly inactive here for the six month period. I just tried to do enough to keep my account as an active member here. I get burned out here sometimes and take short breaks from it.

i run through this place usually once a day.. sometimes twice. not enough to get "burned out" as ive got tons of other stuff to do during the day, so i dont stay in one place for very long. i look at this place as a very slow form of instant messenger / chat room LOL a place to chit chat with people that are quickly becomming friends, and the possibles to meet and maybe make new ones along the way. a place to rant, vent, educate, inspire and entertain.. to be ranted and vented at, be educated and inspired by and to be entertained.

The longest time that I have been inactive in mylot is only 1 day...hehehe. I think that was the time when I had to render an overtime at work and was very exhausted when I arrived home that I just wanted to take a rest already. Well, I think I'm having fun with mylot (I just started with mylot 3 weeks ago) and I couldn't let a day pass without visiting mylot. I would make sure that I could post at least 1 response in a day...hehehe
Writer's block? Yup, I experience that too. That was last Thursday when I couldn't think of anything to start a discussion or even concentrate to respond to other's discussion. I was very much frustrated that time but I couldn't do anything better to I just logged-out after 3 posts. I guess we also need to take a break for a time even though how eager we wanted to do something.

I have not been inactive I still post a little a day, but I notice that some days I can do it all day long, but when I do it burns me out for a few days. Yes I get writers block. Sometimes I just don't feel like thinking. I just have to put it down and do something else. I don't discuss and I really feel like I want to so that my responses are still adequate.

The longest streak I have been off myLot was three months. I got really busy with a lot of things like work and business. Though I get to have the chance to go online everyday, I used most of that time working on my lectures only. I never really felt that I got burned out here or something. If I don't get to be on myLot for a day or so, that means that I am really busy.

I have never been consistent with mylot as I was active sometimes and inactive for other. My longest wasn't that long. I was inactive in Mylot for 6 days at most. Speaking of burned out I sometimes feels that there aren't any quality discussions to respond to and that makes me feel bore. I never mylotted that much so that I feel burned out.
