If so what do they comment on your discussions? Do your relatives and friends also read your discussions?

Nope, none of my family members use myLot. It just isn't something which interests them. Would be good if they used myLot because then I might get some active referals.

I think it is the same with many mylotters. Let us see what others say now.

Yes, it will be nice if our loved ones take interest to read our discussions and rate them. But can we discuss frankly if our family members are going to read our threads?

No they don’t and I get very irritated if somebody is staring at the computer screen while I am doing any personal work. As it is my family members think I waste my time at mylot so they are very curious to see what exactly I do. But I am careful too, not to let them see anything. However, there are times when I am in mylot mood and typing away furiously and my husband enters the room suddenly…he knows I am mylotting and he will just stand behind me on some pretext and read what I am typing. Its sooooooooo irritating I tell you but I just cant minimize the screen immediately.

I have read out interesting,funny discussions to members of my family.I have even discussed discussions with my husband [yours were also one of them on occasions].THough they do not participate in such online forums they would listen to what I have to say especially w ehn it is intersting or funny.THis forum gives diffent perspectives and it is very interesting. But , I would confine myself to interesting discussions and comments alone.Regarding relatives, I have mentioned in passing about getting many friends of mine via the net but I don't go into details .THey may not show the same level of interest shown by me isn't it?

I recently showed my page to several family members to invite them to join Mylot and explaining how it works. They weren't really interested, so I don't know if they even care. I do write discussions about one family member here on mylot. Maybe one day she'll come across it.

Earning one or two cent per discussion may not interest many people. However if they try mylot they won't be able to quit easily.

Hi vijayanths, As far as I am concern, none of my friends (offline) and my family members join mylot. So, there is no where they can read my discussion here. Since this is an English discussion, they didn't have any interest on it. But a lot of my online friends read my discussion here since most of them are mylot member. Happy mylotting and have a nice day.

I rather my family and friends not read about my discussions. When I post, I post honest thoughts about friends and family and sometimes rant about their annoying habits. Because I don't know any mylotters in real life, I feel comfortable sharing secrets. It would be too embarrassing if anyone I know reads what I writes

I am the only one who is active here in mylot within our family. My wife is quite busy with work and usually have not time to post. My son is only 6 years old and does not understand much the essence of myloting. He is more of playing games and watching videos on the internet.

I only have one relative here on MyLot - and that's my sister, CarlaS (is her username). She occasionally responds to my started discussions, but she's not really active here on MyLot (only once in while).

Nope, there is no one here but me and my dogs and they certainly can't read. I have tried to get my duaghter to join mylot, but she feels it isn't enough money, so it isn't for lack of trying. There isn't much I can do about it though, as I can't force her to join. As it stands, I don't hae referrals, and I seem to be doing okay without them. There is no guarnatee that they would work for me anyway. I really like it here, and I am not going anywhere. Good luck to you and happy mylotting.

No- no one that I know in real life uses myLot, or knows that I use it. I don't think anyone even knows of it. I prefer it that way, though because then I can say whatever I want.

No, my family do not read my mylot discussions. They hardly know I am a member of Mylot. They are not technical people, they seldom use computers. My parents don't have email. My sister and brother have but I am not using my real name here so they will not know if I am me.
