Hello fellas, I'm mermaid. I have been away for a while, I wonder if anybody still remember me 
I used to think I would never leave mylot behind and would check up with the discussions everyday but I somehow found something interesting instead so I just stopped updating all in sudden.
I think it's been almost half year now, I have been looking for a real job, making my own jewelry, playing cards etc... I hope I can still receive responses on mylot when I post discussions here:-)
I think receiving responses is the most motivation for me and it was the reason for me to keep using mylot, is that true to you?

ah okay...i guess you always looks good in any hair style!
hmmm, are those jewelries for yourself only or you sell it? if so i think that will be a good business...
by the way, i thought the reason why you become inactive is because you are already preggy...hehe

Hi mermaidivy!
Welcome back! Thanks for uploading your recent picture. You indeed look very beautiful. What I can say about you that you are still in my friends' list and that is why your discussion surfaced in the list of discussions started by friends. We have not forgotten you, it is another matter that you have gone away from mylot and made yourself busy in some other business. Hopefully, you will continue to receive responses, whenever you post some quality discussions here on mylot.

Hi dear!
Your good friends (like me) should not forget you, even if you go missing for a longer duration, it is called true friendship.

I do remember you mermaidivy and I am pleased to hear from you again! Much to my amazement I have not ever left MyLot for very long, the longest period was only a around a couple of weeks and that was months ago. Life offline has a way of taking over sometimes and it is too stressful not to go along with it. The main thing is that you are back now and I look forward to your discussions again. My motivation here is the social side for sure and I do welcome the pocket money I make almost every month.
Welcome back!

Hi Mermaid!
I've had the same experience as you. I was responding to mylot discussions and making comments dailly and suddenly I stopped.
I've recently returned for the original reason I started; which is I love to write and it's a nice way to make money(even if it is a small amount).
Real jobs are hard to get these days and I think the best way to earn money is to keep doing a variety of things and get income that way.

Hi! I have left it behind for maximum days, just because I had got a lot to do in my work. I have many texts to translate and I hadn't got any free time for my hobbies.

hii mermaidivy, i still remember you too. i used to think that way too initially, that i'd never want to leave mylot. but some things just catch our attention huh.
for me, in fact, i just returned from a 2 mth holiday, so basically no mylotting for 2 months.
well if i had made topics, i'd definitely enjoy receiving responses but i can't think of any usually and thus, i just post to discussions. but i really enjoy it when i get a reply for my comment. i don't know, it's just a great feeling. that is my motivation hehe and also, i enjoy helping people out whenever i can, which is not often.

Of course I remember you. You're one of my most active friends. Well, you used to at least before you went on that myLot break. Most people need some break from anything anyway. The most that Ive been away in myLot was probably about two week. I was out of town that time and had no direct contact with the internet. It was a busy time for me as well. No time for recreation really. So I was able to come back in myLot after a few days of rest when I got home.
Goodluck job hunting. You're always welcome here. So Welcome back and Merry Christmas.^_^

Hi Ivy, no way has it been six months though your last visit was brief. Glad to hear it is just other interests which have been keeping you away. Anyway I thought you'd be back so didn't delete you.
I joined and lasted about one or two days and then left as couldn't work out how the place worked. I tried again after 3 months and have been here regularly since then.

Hi mermaid. I have left it behind for almost half a year. Cuz sometimes I think it is boring of typing. But later if you use it again it is fun for me again. Sure, it does. The responses is the motivation for me.

I never found typing boring, great thing to make you keep participating is the responses more than anything. I don't mind typing a bunch of words here if I get good responses :-)

The longest I left mylot is about three months. I left because at that time I was dividing my time between work, quality time with my family and boyfriend and tending to my online business. I decided to closed my online business temporarily because my schedule can be pretty tiring. Now, I am back and I am planning to reach payout soon.

hello mermaid,
why on earth should forget you
that old beach sexy avatar of yours, that was so unique to me, until you changed it recently. you know am really happy that mylot oldies like yourself are returning to the site, making me believe that the users who once dominated this site had disappeared. am glad you came back. i might be looking for a real job too next year since online earnings aren't even enough to buy a present@mermaidivy (15395)

16 Dec 09
oh hehe thank you for your comment:-)
I was looking for a real job as well but I didn't get any luck, online earnings is definitely not enough to afford buying a present, a mont work on mylot maybe worth pair of cheap earrings :-p Good luck of looking for work!

I remember I would still stick around even though when I was sick hehe.
I am very motivated by intelligent responses I receive. Ignorant people that respond are discouraging and cause me to pause.

I seldom post a discussion I only want to read and respond discussions here and topics that interest me are the one who motivates me to stay here. I also sometimes inactive in responding to the discussions because of the busy schedule and I'm just logging in here during my spare time and it became my hobby.
