It hard for me to believe that out of over 3000 nigerian mylotian, am the only active member. Even those with post bigger than mine has gone. I was wondering about the course, maybe it because e-gold is no longer used for payment, lack of constant internet access, mylot high learning curve, low earning or simply lack of interest. I guess it's lack of interest, cos nigerian rocks the house at facebook, where they are not paid or ..., maybe because people here don't respect them. Someone here onced said that the nickname for nigeria is scam.

I honestly feel like MyLot is one of THE most accepting places of diversity. We have SO much of it; and the majority of us respect each other. I don't think anyone drove away the rest of the Nigerians for calling them "scam" or "scammers" - because for every ONE racist/stereotyping person, we have about 100 people who would stick up for the integrity of ANY race. It is kind of sad that you're the only one now, though. But don't be discouraged. You don't need people of your same race on myLot to feel like you're part of a community!

That true, but the more i see them here, the beta. They can make me feel at home and discuss more local issues in our naija way.

I didn't even know they were Nigerians in my lot! I guess they've all got their reasons not be active but my lot welcomes anyone in the world with internet access.

The truth is that Nigerians are adventurous. They are everywhere, in all nooks and cranny.

Megaplaza, well you only think and say what you know and Congratulations that you are the highest mylotter of Nigerian Origin! Am from Warri and a full blooded Nigerian but I hate to read this story of yours because this is sure a publicly stuff you are pulling off, just to get response I feel you man. But Niger Delta issues are very pressing to really worry about posting on here for gains!

Neumann, i never said am the only nigerian here, i said at that moment that am the only active nigerian here. Beside, how am i sure you are a nigeria when u specified in ur profile USA. Please go and change it first cause that can make the admin to bam you. Besides, since you are bothered about Niger Delta, why don't you start the discussion and please am not interested in responses.

Please, megaplaza, don´t put everyone in the same basket. There are all kind of people here at mylot. That someone who said that is just one ignorant person; mylot is full of people who want to learn of other people and be friendly.
I think the worst thing is that you, nigerians, can´t take out the money you rightfully earn. That is a pity and it should be changed. Can´t you open an account with a friend who lives in another country and have him send you a cheque when there´s enough money?
I hope you solve your troubles. And I hope, more than that, that your country solves it´s troubles.
Take care

It's the summer time, maybe they're out having other kinds of fun. Hopefully other Nigerian's will get memberships here soon. The more the merrier.

I don't think so, cause its rainy here this days. It rains heavily in most parts here. I think they don't just buy the mylot idea and there is no local hype about mylot.
