Do you ever do mylot tasks?

I have never done a task before, I just can't see myself jumping through hoops for ten or so cents- I would rather make ten cents by socializing here and actually enjoying it. How about you? Ever do a task, and how was it? Or are you like me and never touch the tasks? Maybe I would have done a few if I would have joined when tasks were here already, but since I am from the older mylot era, I just can't put myself to it, I am so used to just going to discussions.

I have done tasks before. There used to be a lot of writing tasks earlier.They were like $2 a task. I did 3 such tasks ,all of them got accepted and I got the $6. It helped me reach my payout.That was really nice. But I don't see too many good tasks now.

Wow, that would be awesome, I wish that I would have gotten something like that, but I don't even look at the tasks often so I would have never seen it coming heh, that was very good luck for you to find though, my gosh.

You probably will not be accepted for that task since it has been so long, some users aren't very nice about doing that for you so I hear- just don't count on it really. But good luck in doing tasks!

I agree with sugarplum, I don't think your task will end up getting accepted or rejected! You should do tasks with a trusted member as for some members you do there task, and you did them a favour, whatever it is, but they won't pay you for it. so it's like your working for free for them, which really isn't fair. Don't do any tasks that seem to good to be true for a small task.

Yeah, I probably would make more by just posting on mylot anyway, I average four cents a response, so I think I am on the right track, in the time of me doing one task it would be about three responses for me probably, which would give me more than most of the task offers, that's kind of how I look at it, you know?

Hi there, yes i do some of the task here. I am happy that half of it was approved but the other was rejected. But its ok its part of the game heheh, now i dont work for any task because i found it not interesting anymore, but i do visit them and look if there is interesting tasks, hope there will be other task to come other than signing up on the site to be their referral, anyway keep on mylotting,

I would fear that, having only half of my tasks accepted, and the other half rejected! I can see a good amount of your time going into it, and then losing a big amount of time. Like I said before, you have to use good discretion on the tasks you decide to do, some people are not so nice when it comes to accepting your work.

I tried doing mylot tasks but not even single of my task was approved so i just stopped trying for new tasks.
If you want to make some quick money from mylot then you must try to complete mylot tasks which is the best part of mylot to make more and more money.
Also see that you complete your tasks on time

Oh that sucks that you have not gotten any money from tasks despite your attempts. You seem pretty optimistic about the whole experience though. I might try tasks someday...

I've joined here a couple of days before.
At the first look, I've seen the Tasks and I started to read them.
Couldn't understand anything.
I thought mylotting is a bad Idea.
Then yesterday my referrer chat with me and told me that we can earn from mylot by discussing.
Then from today I've started mylotting.
It is addicting and not letting me to do any other work.
And I wonder how mylot can give us the money just for discussions.

I ended up receiving two tasks and this was around the time when I was away from mylot for a bit so it was about 3 weeks when the tasks were given to me and when I tried to do them, the link that they gave me didn't work so I just messaged them back saying it didn't work. I just might do it again if I get another one.
Have a nice day

Sounds like tasks can be pretty time consuming and stressful, compared to just posting on the discussion board. I would probably just give up if I was in the same situation hah.

I have done like 3.. I don't actually enjoy doing it though. Plus the time limit is annoying, especially when it is a long one. But yeah i prefer doing discussions but sometimes a easy task when i have got free time doesn't seem to bad. But yeah i don't think i'll jump at every task once in a blue moon i'll be doing a task. Though i think it is a great feature though!

Tasks do seem like more stress on your back, th internet should be for relaxing and enjoying your time, so that is why I stay in the discussion area. It is ood to have the task feature though, it gives some people that like other money making things another thing to do on here. I's always good to have more options for all sorts of people.

I have never done a task for those reasons as well, I look but I never find anything that looks worthy of my time haha. I would rather share too and just have fun in the discussion board.

I have done 3 tasks in the last 2 days and I have been paid on 2 of them.
The two I was paid on was for $.05 each the one that was for $.25 is still pending. I probably won't get that one. But I had to try.
I saw a couple where it was as simple as go and read my blog and subscribe or comment. I can do that as I love reading blogs and it is a quick way to make a few extra pennies

That just doesn't seem worth it enough for me, I would hate to wait around for people to accept my work, and know that they would possibly reject me. Blog reading isn't bad though.

I did the writing tasks, but they took up a lot of my time because I had to do a research on certain topics based on the keywords given. They have helped a lot in my earnings, but lately there are no offers available on these writing tasks. Right now, I will only focus on responding to discussions.

Ive done the same like this. its really hard to research on some stuff and then the ending is that your answer will just be rejected. I hope i can earn more by just joining the discussion. Happy my lotting.

I will definitely try it one day though.

Yeah, it depends on how many are accepted and rejected I guess. Maybe I will try it someday as well, though probably nottoo soon hehe.

I submitted three tasks one day. One was accepted by the creator. What anice person he would be. He has given me 15 cents. Another one rejected my work by giving a mean comment about my work. I wasted me time doing that. One is still pending. It is worth 5 cents but I hope I am approved.

Wow, it is funny how people would leave a mean comment about you doing their task, that isn't very nice, after you put your time into it. Good luck in getting your other task approved, who knows if you can trust for it to even be acknowledged.

haha yeah, it is sometimes harder to adapt to change on a site that you were used to the "other way". I have put up with layout changes and all sorts of changes, though I can't get myself to touch the tasks.

i dont think i am interested in such tasks because i have done some and they keep sending the same old task over and over again, i am not sure if i can be interested in such old tasks again except they send new ones i can do conviniently

Yeah, I can see how it would get boring to do a lot of tasks that are just about the same. I suppose you have to be patient and wait for the good ones to come along.

so far i also never done a task. i o not like a task because you need to do this and do that. i prefer post in discussion to say whatever you like to. I also think that it is not worth it to do a task, and not sure whether they will pay you or not after you complete the task.

I agree with you and feel the same. You can really get ripped off for your work sometimes as I have heard.

I've looked at the tasks and I've actually done one really simple one. But, it really isn't my cup of tea. I much prefer to socialize with the other mylotters and take part in discussions.
This isn't to say that I won't look into tasks again at some point. If there is something there that is interesting to me, I'll probably participate in a task again in the future, but it has to be something that I feel like is worth my time.

Sometimes I also take a peak at the tasks, like today I checked, but nothing shwon interested me, like you, I prefer just to socialize in the discussions area of mylot.

Yeah, that definitely holds me back from doing tasks, you have to know who pays and who doesn't before you do them I guess. At least with mylot discussions you can actually depend on them to get the money to you!

i am also thinking the same with what you have. i mean i don't want to stuck up doing a couple of cents for such task and requires me to squish my brain up just to do it. i rather have discussions on going, then ill see myself progress without even noticing.

Yeah, that is also how I feel about it. Once you are here for a while you can just go from a discussion to the next discussion and it is really easy to earn money that way as well as have some fun. I think earnings would come slower and not give me as much fun in doing tasks.
