Good day! Well, we earn from our own activity and not from others. It doesn't matter whether you receive a few or a lot of responses, you earn the same from it. You earn from your discussion if you receive at least one or two responses then you post comments in it. You can earn more if you post a comment on each response you receive. Take note that one line posts will not be paid. You should post with quality to earn more. Another factor for earnings was the rating of the user. When a user have at least 100 posts, there will be a star next to the username and it correspond to user rating or mylot reputation. Users rate the post of others either positive or negative. To learn more about earnings and reputation, read on the FAQ's section. Happy mylotting!

Well said! It is the same as anything. We will not earn from what others do in any walk of life. If I study at school I learn but I do not learn if another studies and I just do other things. Same here - I post, I earn. Others post, they earn.

Unless we are lucky and have lots of active referrals then we should not rely on them but consider any earnings from them as a welcome bonus. Active referrals seem to have become an extinct species

Nice one, mysd! we earn on what we do here. An exception- we earn from active referrals if they participate on discussions and upload pictures. I just thought of that thing, but we must not barely depend on others.

Yes I agree when someone tell you that earning by 2 responses or 50 responses you had is still the same, truly I agree with that because myLot only give some extra cent for your first responses. The second, third and so on won't count. But wait, my explanation doesn't stop there. There's one case different, if you DO commenting back to every responses you had, that's the key to earn more at your own started discussions. So, you must start a good quality discussion which could attract many responder, than next is to give comment to every single responses you had, that's definitely earn you more. The most highest earn is when you started a discussion, getting lots of responses and you right away reply their responses by commenting, they also back commenting to you, cycling on and on full day, this could earn you very much. I hope this info could enlighten you a bit.

That is it! We do not earn for what others do unless we make good use of it. I get paid for my response, you get paid for yours but if you respond to me then you give me the opportunity to get back to you and post and earn again. That is also where friends enter into it too

Being the first responder will help you and the user who started the discussion. Being active as you described will certainly boost your earnings and the longer and more interesting responses and comments you make then the more your earnings will increase. Happy Lotting!

Hello wzsj.Actually I didn't know much about earning regulation here since I am just a newer,now I learned a lot from your discussion and also other comments, thanks. I think this rule is designed to encourage more mylotters participation and share.

It still depend upon the quality of the posts under that discussion and the quality of the discussion itself... MyLot has a secret permutation and no one really knows how they compute our earnings. So just keep on posting, never how many times you post but mind about the quality of your posts: it should 5 lines and more and of good quality. And just have fun! Happy mylotting!!!

Thats strange if you think that quality and quantity is same. I think at mylot both things are needed that is quality along with quantity. With one thing you dont deserve to earn more. Good luck!

Oh no! quality is not equal to the quantity of words that you post. Though it is better if you talk more, what matters is what are you talking about. You have to make sense and focus your comment/discussion on the topic. OK? If you do that, I assure you, you will be on the right track! Happy postings...

I believe we deserve more if we get more responses. From my observence, I found that you can earn more by responding to discussions and not be creating discussions. The amount you earn by creating a discussions and getting lots of responses is the same as you respond to very little number of discussions. I create discussions not aiming mainly at the money it makes for me, but the happiness I get when more people respond to my discussions.

From experience, I think it's quality discussions rather than quantity. I've had this experience before (where I ranted in a pass discussion due to this), I spent the wholeday responding to discussions... and ended up with only about 30 cents the following day. However, in another occasion, I caught up with a lot of interesting discussions... and responded to them with a lot of enthusiasm (of course, because I know what they are talking about)... and just a few hourse of exchanging thoughts with fellow mylotters, I actually earned about 50 cents. Lesson learned... in my opinion, it's not actually about how long your responses are, or how many you made in an our or day. I guess what matters is, you're making sesnse with every response you make. That means, not repeating other's thoughts, and having an idea of what the discussion is all about.

What I know is, more responses brings more earnings. If a cent is made for one response, fifty cents must bring fifty cents. But we shall have to comment upon the responses regularly! Thanks for this nice posting and have a good day!

hello wzsjo501, Your thoughts about it is the same with me.The more response to the discussion/s that you started the more you earned. And I hope we're right or better yet if making a comment to their response make your earning much.

I think that the answer is yes. The number of posts don't matter and every response has equal weightage in terms of earnings. I know it is somewhat biased but people will start scamming if it is done the way you suggest, just to increase the number of replies to the discussion.

Hello there! I know from my experience that whether you have one response or several ones it does not matter but yes one can rate you positive which will surely help you to get a star. Have fun here just like we are all having.

Well, more responses simply means that the topic is catchy and people liked it. So the author should be rewarded for that atleast little bit more than others so that mylotters can be encouraged to post more interesting discussion which will increase the quality of mylot.

Based on my observations, it pays the same regardless of how many the responses on your discussions may be. It will only differ if you reply to everyone who responds on your discussion. If you do that, then you'll definitely earn more. =)

Discussions with 1 or more responses earn the same because you only started a topic to discuss and you earn from it but you're not the one who will earn from the responses because the others posted it. The difference in having an interesting discussion is that you'll gain many responses for you to have many chance on posting a comment on every responses you get that way you can earn more. =D

Hello wzsj0501, Thanks for starting this interesting topic. I am very new to myLot so I find this discussion topic and the responses are very useful to me. Now then I know that my earning generated out from my own activities and it don't depend on how many response I get. Also, now I know that I will earn more if I response to all the comments. Have a good weekend ahead =))

We don't earn on all the responses no matter how many responses there are. We do get paid for posting comments to the responses of our discussions however. That is why it is so importand that when you start a disussion that you comment to all the responses, and tey can't just be thank you for responding either. They must be quality comments just like the responses that you do to other discussons, I had one discussion that had 20 responses, which means I had to comment to all of them, which helped me earn. We all work together to help each other earn, and that is the most important thing. Just keep all this in mind when you start discussions. Well, good luck to you and happy mylotting.
