I know we all Love myLot as a whole, or at least those of us who are quite active in here, and have been here a while. But I am sure that there are times you get Frustrated and quit wanting to post in here for a bit or a couple of days as well.
Maybe it is due to your earnings not going up as much as you would like to see them. Or maybe you are not able to see any Tasks in here you can do, or there are never any listed here as well.
It could also be that maybe someone or something you have read has upset you to the point you end up leaving here for a while to go and do something else. Seriously if there is someone in here who says they have never been upset with myLot even for an hr. or so has to be a newer member here for sure. Yes, I have been here for a little over 2 yrs. and Yes, this is still one of the better places to be online to earn some extra income, but at the same time, I have gotten frustrated a time or two and wonder if it is worth it at that time as well.
But no matter what we go thru, we can learn from each other. When we do not Sweat the Small stuff the Big things will not be so hard as well. Wishing you all the Best.

Great words of wisdom :-) I really think this can be true of any site. I have only been a member here for a little over a week but I can honestly say at times, I get frustrated with the discussions and just have to go do something else for a while. It can be frustrating too when people just won't answer your discussions, especially when you're asking a asking for advice. Sometimes I may need a brea, but no matter what I will always come back. I love Mylot :-)

Yes, it can be frustrating when you Start discussions and no one seems to respond back to them. It happens from time to time even with those like me who have been here for almost 2 1/2 yrs. Just do not give up, and continue to post here and add to your Friends list, and Great things will happen.

Well, I don't really get frustrated because for the most part, I really enjoy coming on myLot and answering discussions and the like. It's fun for me and wastes a lot of time (I LOVE procrastinating, and myLot doesn't help with that..lol). The biggest issue I have, is that I get burned out after a while (usually about once a week), and I just don't want to come on for a few days, in which case, I usually don't or wait it out for a few days so that I can get out of whatever funk I'm in, and get back to being active on myLot. Sometimes you just need a break, you know?
Great question, btw!

Hello friend,
First of all, let me tell you that money is not the primary reason I am here for. I am a student and I am happy with whatever little money I make here. In fact, I have been here for around two months now and still haven't reached the payout!
Hence, I do not think much about the money being low. Yes, there are times when I get frustrated here but that is due to a different reason. Sometimes I keep on looking for the discussions from my interests and I cannot find any. This annoys me and I simply logout. :)
I would suggest that if you are here for making real big money then it is probably not the right place for you. One cannot make a living here unless one has got thousands of active referrals...

when i join mylot and make some post, i can see i just got few for it, i can see better place to do it. But after i do some post here, i can see that there is a lot of information and topics here that make me interested, so maybe my priorities here changes from first, earn money and two make a relationship and get some information to first make a relationship and two earn money.

I have never got frustrated here;of course I am not terribly active throughout the day in mylot.com, and have my limitations.So, wheenver, I feel like participating in discussions, i have soemthing or the other to respond to.Otherwise, I will just do something else.I make some ten to twenty posts at max here.On most days it is far less.THat may be one of the reasons.

Oh sure. I've gotten frustrated a lot of times. A week ago I realized I'd been here over three years. And there was one time I almost quit. I didn't post about it, I just contacted some of my friends here through their e-mail and told them I was not going to be back. I even removed my avatar. About five days later I had a change of heart. But as for those tasks...heck, I didn't even try. I read them, but I knew so many more people than me were going to get to those. And I would just be wasting my time.

I have been here a little over two years and I know that there are times that I get frustrated with this site for most of the reasons that you listed but I always just take a day or two off and then I am back here with the realization that I like this site and that I do make some money here. Best wishes to you too.

I've gotten frustrated or distracted and haven't been here a few times. One time I wasn't here because of something that happened, and that I needed time to think about. This is a great place as long as you take it in small doses, or realize it's just a website, and these are just people, and people aren't perfect. I'm not perfect, and I guess that's one of the things I have to remember when I do get frustrated here. By the way I wasn't saying that you need to realize it's just a website, etc, I was talking in general, and mostly about myself. I agree with you, don't sweat the small stuff, but don't pet the sweaty stuff either, lol!

i some times get frustrated and have to leave when there is an outbreak of idiots that decide they need to give their bs advice to my posts.. like im not talking about just not agreeing which i could care less about since i want to know the opposite view and heck its a DISCUSSION so of course everyone needs to share but some people seem to like answer with stuff that doesnt even fit or questions your whole discussion or picks fights and i cant stand too much of that in one sitting on some days..

ya I got frustrated whenever I saw that none of the people responded me on my millionaire question which comes in my mind very few...also when I saw that my money is not increasing..

Most definitely. But the feeling never really lasts long.
I plan to stick around for some time to come. Even when I get frustrated while posting here (which is rare), it is still my favorite site.
Mylot rocks!

I do get frustrated at times, but not because of what someone may have written. My frustration comes, when I have been coming back and forth to Mylot all day, and really can not find any decent discussions to respond to. sometimes, I get annoyed, when I think I have posted a relatively interesting topic and get no responses, then see another discussion that is similiar to mine and that discussion gets tons of responses.
I won't let that deter me though, I will continue to come to Mylot, and maybe one day, I will have the most popular discussion.
Have a great day

Aside from those annoying trolls that regularly make the rounds I get frustrated sometimes when I struggle to find discussions that interest me. Don't get me wrong there are plenty of good posts here to choose from but I think it just may have something to do with burn out too. Although I am not here primarily for the money I do find that on the days that I have spent most of the day posting and my earnings are 11 cents it can be a little disheartening.
I haven't been targeted by anyone abusive since I've been a member but I have seen some nasty stuff here and there and that's off putting.
Having said that MyLot is a good site and I will keep coming back, it's just that sometime you can have too much of a good thing, but nothing a good break won't fix.

I have been in mylot for less than a month and have not felt the way you feel. Maybe I need to stay longer here to feel the ups and downs of this place. Presently, I am enjoying myself interacting with friends here. This is indeed a great site to be in.

like most of youlotters, i too get frustrated when there is no active contribution to my discussions. perhaps i might lose interest after while..but the best thing is that my rating's gone up. i wonder how that happened.
you're right, Tina.. I second your words "dont sweat the small stuff".. makes a lot of sense
