How the hell do we get paid here in mylot?

Tweet

Someone made a comment in a discussion I started about how they read somene else say that you get paid more for starting a discussion rather than responding to them. Is that true? I know some people here like to answer questions or respond to things with an answer that is more of their opinion rather than actually knowing it for a fact. I don't ever think I will truly understand or no how the mylot community works, or how they go about paying us here. But can anyone really tell me how they go about paying us? If you spend the whole day responding to discussions, is it the same if you started a bunch of them? What about the disussions that some of us start that don't even get any responses? Are we getting credit for those as well? If you start a discussion that gets 50 responses and you reply to all of them, does that count for anything? Or do they look at it as a way of being lazy or better yet even cheating the system by just respomding to all the people that left comments in your post rather than actually doing the work and finding other topics to comment on? I really want to know.
