I can compare my membership in mylot as the life cycle of a butterfly. It is actually what has happened. In the life of a butterfly, they started as an Egg, in this site, we started as a Newbie. Normally, as an egg, they can't still do anything and just in one place, however in the site as a newbie, you start to study how the site works. After quite sometime in the life of the of a butterfly, they move to the next cycle which is caterpillar (larva), they started walking but little by little. On the other hand, here in the site, i started responding first to the discussions that was posted, normally 2 - 3 sentences only. Another time has pass, the butterfly became pupa, and here in the site, i have learn how to post my own discussion and it is quite longer now, from 2 - 3 sentences, i can make 4 - 7 lines on this stage.After few months, the pupa became totally a butterfly, they learn how to fly now in different places and sip some flowers to survive. While here in the site, it is my highest level that i have reached, i can make two - five discussions a day, with 5 - 10 lines each, i can comment on the responses in my discussions, i can barge in in other discussions, i can post pictures on my discussions, and i can even give suggestions to increase earnings.
Our membership here in mylot is like a life cycle of an animal. for a butterfly to survive, they should look for food, while here for us to retain, we should not violate the guidelines of the site. what about you, in what animal do you compare your membership in the site? share your insights..happy mylotting!!

Beautiful comparison but I do hope that now that you are a butterfly you are not going to fly off elsewhere my friend!
I think it's a bit like driving a car here. MyLot gives us a driving license and we have to learn how to use it, avoiding all the wrong turns and one-way roads, sharp corners and not knocking down the pedestrians
Once we get the hang of it our travels have some really fantastic scenery and we can stop off here and there and take a look at things closer (on each discussion) and get to know the locals who might then become our firneds.
We can assist the new drivers, putting them in the passenger seat until they know their way around and then they can gooff and drive all by themselves in a different direction than us.
Happy travels!

Wow!! I was really amazed with your response my mom.. I've read your response three
times. it is really wonderful. And i am really proud that i received a response from
my mentor, my mom, my adviser in the site. actually, after mylot has given me the
driver's license, you have sit beside me and guide me through all the way. you have
been very great. you bring to the right path. Can i ask your permission to make a
discussion about the driver's license given to us by mylot? if it is okay with
you my mentor??

hi rberon^^;;
you have a nice story on how you had started here in mylot. it's really interesting to know how one survived their first days here while still crawling and struggling lol. i was indeed just a simple adopted ignorant butterfly of mylot that came here for shelter to ease my boredom and loneliness. no other online homes would accept me because they know i don't fit there but here little by little other colorful butterflies entertained me and taught me the know-hows and how-knows lol...
sorry i couldn't think of a better one here than yours hahaha...
but thanks, i have learned from your posts. i was actually reading all your suggestions like the "barging in" before but had no chance to interact with you...it really help me..

I have checked your profile and i found out that you are also a Filipino like me..
I am really glad that you appreciate all the discussions that i am making here. i
really hope that i am giving you information that can help you out in the site.
Few more months and you will be a shining and colorful butterfly, and you will
now be the one to assist our newbies. I love your avatar, it is as cute as my
avatar.lol

You are already on your way to become a butterfly, you have a very good rating in the site and I think you are very much ready to assist the eggs and caterpilars here in the site. You already have that strength and power.
With my smiley with ice cream, i just don't know why he don't gain weight. Maybe because the barbell eats all the ice cream that he take.

thanks for the add my friend
yes, i learn from those colorful butterflies like you. not by asking directly but by reading their posts and comments. and i do share it too with crawling caterpillars hehe. i know soon i will be as beautiful as you
and with my panda, yes, she's just so lovely but becoming fuller and fuller sitting infront of the computer everyday. wonder why yours isn't gaining weight eventhough he is always eating icecream

Great analogy indeed. I think it's like that you said; a butterfly. I feel the mylot journey here for my personal thought is like a baby making its transition from lying down to crawling to walking and then running.
It's a totally great achievement and feeling, in which only a regular mylotter would come to feel. I think everyone should have a basic mylot foundation. Good discussion here..

Thanks for the appreciation.[i]" I feel the mylot journey here for my
personal thought is like a baby making its transition from lying down to crawling to
walking and then running."[/i]. This is definitely correct. If i have compared it
to the life of a butterfly, you have compared it to a real life of a person, which
is really good. So with your situation, you are already running guy.lol

My friend, it's been always 3 months that I did not see you online. How are you?
What makes you busy? We have miss all your discussions in the site. I am very
glad that when i teach you before, i did not find it very hard. You are a fast
learner. You just listen and follow to what i say, that is why you are still here.
You are already a colorful butterfly and I'm sure you are ready to assist all the
eggs and pupa in the site.

hhhhmmmm nice one friend. well, i cannot think of anything for a moment. but is sure could see my self as a small animal once... we need all the help from our parents which are the seniors here in mylot. they mold us and we strive for perfection. then after awhile we then learn step by step how life could be... from our first walk, our first nourishment... which is mylot guidelines, FAQs and tools of how we could survive in this joint. then we mature and which then we also become seniors of this site. we then becomes the mentor again of each one of us. and help each other out, those who are the new siblings in this community.

You have mentioned that you can not think as of this moment but you were able to make
seven lines.lolyou are correct, the senior members mold us, they
assisted us in all our concerns. They have been very patient in all the problems
that we encounter and you are also correct that FAQ has been a big help in all
our success in the site. I miss you my friend, its been quite a while that we haven't
talk. I think you have been very busy with your offline job. happy
mylotting!!

I hope I can also develop, and fast hahaha. I think I am too lazy to post long discussions. I only respond in a lenghty manner if the discussion is really of great interest too me. And now I am having a hard time finding those haha

I know you can do it. Help yourself, be active as possible, you are already on
your way to become a butterfly, after some months, you will already be the one to
assist the eggs in the site.

Interesting comparison and quite like life really goes here in myLot for people here for sure. I think a lot of it is the New people coming in here to really learn more about what this site is, and how to post more in here to earn better money and then learning to survive from here. I think sometimes too many Newer people in here get disappointed too quickly due to the earnings, etc. and leave without ever really giving this site a chance. Glad you started this one in hopes of helping some of the Newer people for sure.

hi rberon well butterflies are very beautiful so you do well
in comparing. I think I am an old basset hound pondering my
thoughts as I progress in mylotting for about three years
off and on. I have been very careful to follow the rules
and have yet to have anything I have posted deleted. I am
a happy old hound, basset by name,he he.

the definition that i can give to you or maybe the right term is
"Veteran Butterfly". You almost know everything here in the site, that
it is why i gave you that title. in addition, veterans since you have not violated
any guidelines in the site. thanks for the input. happy mylotting!!

hello rberon, that is a nice combination of a bug cycle about your mylot life here. it really does tell when you were just a newbie - egg, then butterfly - veteran. you have given a lot to the users and friends about your mylot advice, i hope you can give more and am sure people will remember you at that.

If there will be higher than a veteran position, i think you should be in that
position. you are older than me in the site. Mys and you are my mentors in the site.
If i can post quality discussions now, it's because i have a good mentor and it's you
guys who has mold me from an egg to a butterfly. i owe all this things to you guys.
i will be waiting for the second video.

If I were to compare myself with the one you listed, maybe I am still a caterpillar just came out from my egg. I still need to grow more. I still need to eat more for a longer time to become a pupa. Someday I am looking forward to be one of the colorful butterfly flying around here.
happy mylotting! See you around!

I'm sure all the colorful butterflies here will assist you for you to easily to
become a pupa and of course you have to help yourself. Eat more, try to do your
best, if you are confuse in a specific guidelines, ask the butterflies, they will
be there for you. I'm sure they will be there for you, or you can also ask me,
if i know the answer, why not, if i do not know, i will ask someone for you.
See you around..happy mylotting!!

Good to hear. I registered with myLot just a couple of days back. I'm still in the stage of an egg. I'm sure with help from all other senior members of myLot, I too can become a butterfly one day. Wish me good luck, my dear friends.
