Why do Newbies leave as fast as they come in?

my daughter quit this site just recently. she did it because she was here for the earning purpose and no other reason. i understand people become close online, but she doesn't feel like it's "real". although, she says she did consider it al earning experience.

I think people have a hard time settling down to anything any more.I think the biggest reason they don't stick around is because they didn't make the money they thought they would. It has never been about the money w/me altho it's nice when u do get it. The friendships i have made on mylot mean alot more to me thn what money u make. Everybody is looking for a quick fix to being rich.I accepted a long time ago i was never going to be rich, lol. HAPPY VALENTINE'S.

I dont know why this happens as the last ew that has asked to be friends seem to not come back with a post after I accept!

Probably because they come here expecting myLot to turn them into over-night millionaires, and are disappointed when their dreams are tarnished by reality Those people are not true myLotters. They are only interested in the money, not about contributing toward the community and making myLot an even better place than it already is

I think it is a matter of patience. People don't want to take a long time to earn money. Well I would say time is money. But in case of earning on net, I would say "To achieve something, you have to loose something." I am a newbie here and I will stay for few months in mylot to check if I am really earning. If I am earning then i will not leave this site.

as a new comer they will join mostly with the aim to make some money and thus they will give their best topics and will be working with more interest . but since the money we earn in the initial stages are very slow they would not have much patience and they feel that their work is not worthless and thus they start to leave mylot .

I guess some people are not as patient as we are, or don't feel like taking the time it takes to do well here on MyLot. A real shame though, because I love the new people that I have met on here, and have met some nice newbies that have not stuck around. As you can tell, I am not a newbie, and I stuck around. LOL

ha ha, you noticed all these newbies too. i myself, have joined in mylot for about 2 years. but i never think to leave mylot. eventhough i don't login to mylot daily. i know mylot is the best place to discuss with. and i don't look for money here. since i think it's not fast to earn money here. they who left so early might think the same as me. but they did look for money here and they're patient enough then they left.

some people come to mylot thinking the site will make them money faster than those sites they have already joined and where they already earned. some people come here only for cash and when they found out that it is impossible for them to earn as fast as they can, they leave and find another sites. they will only come back after doing a lot of search only to find out that there is no other site that will not only give them extra earning opportunity but will earn more of the money, and that is friends. i may be one of them. and i am one of them. but i am staying and sticking on here. i found better friends here than in any other social networking sites. i can find true friends here.

As others have mentioned I suspect that a lot of new members joined because we get paid here and upon discovering that the money isn’t a lot they move on to more profitable areas which is a shame because this place is so much more than a means to earn. It is a pity especially when the new members may have a real talent for interesting and fun discussions. Personally I don't see how anyone can not have fun here!

Hi zandi I have been here for a while and don't post very often but I like the discussions and I would make a comment in some of them [ according to my mood] or what I like and if I have something to offer, but I just like to read and see what other people have to say is very interesting!and I love it! Im not here to make money but I like the discussions and I have learnt on my lot a lot. Do I make sense?

Not in only mylot but in all aspect in life consistency is a matter of fact in case of durability. In study life almost all people enter into the primary level. How many of them complete the last exam of last exam of the education system. In the test number of candidate is decreased. New user comes tried hard and most of them leave and a few are remain. Different cause behind it..... 1. Most of the user think that it is very easy to earn in mylot. But after joining the site they realize that it is not so easy to earn in mylot. So basically who join this site as a easy online earning source they compel to leave in very short period. 2. Some user this that writing and participation in discussion is very easy. And they write with out thinking. But with out interesting topic and art of writing there writing are not appreciated. And day by day they start to feel that writing is not under their capacity. And they are depressed and leave the site. 3. Very time consuming to continue this site. So those people can't able to find out time for this site. In curiosity to know how this site is, they join in enthusiasm, but practically feel very hard to continue with. 4. Other some find it is different than their presumption. And they loose interest in this site. Apart from them other continue with this site. In debate difference of views makes some difference between people. But all those are only for debate. This types of difference should not take in heart. Personal feeling between all user should maintain with friendly manner. But in contrary to this in practicality we find some person who take differences in views in debate as personal and take those as a cause of enmity. This is not healthy environment but people's minds are very variable.

Maybe they were think they can get a lot and fast money in here, but they can't

hello i'm a newbie here in mylot. in my case, as much as i want to have that staying power i just can't. i'm not very good in english and i can't express myself through that language very well. i really want to participate in so many discussions here but i end up skipping most of them because i might say something others won't like. i see that you've answered so many questions and you're a veteran here in mylot. i hope you may guide us, the newbies, to be more active in this program. i'm having fun here btw. i can practice my english "typing" skills here because i'm communicating with real people :D

As some others have mentioned here, I think many newbies come here with the idea that since they hear MyLot is a paying site, that they'll make a small fortune then get discouraged when they don't. My main reason for staying here so long is like you, I've met so many great people, and yes, consider many closer friends than people in my "real" world. I have to admit I've not been as active here lately though, number one I hang out at another place where a lot of MyLotters are, but two, I've gone back to writing articles which takes up a lot of my time. I'm also the admin/officer for two Facebook groups.....sheesh not easy but good for me

I joined Mylot just over a year ago. I decided to join because it was a legit paying site. I found out quickly how hard it is to make payment! I then started making friends. I have like 41 friends. Most of my friends aren't on Mylot on a regular basis or have disappeared into the unknown! I have said this before and will again. I have had alot of bad experiences on Mylot. From being insulted to being extremely critized for no reason. I also have been mentally abused. So now I just stay on Mylot,mostly,just to make money. I do have a few friends but it seems without trying I have made more enemies then friends. I thought of leaving Mylot many times but I won't! No one can make me! If I even leave it will be on my terms not anyone else's! Newbies need to do more research on Mylot before joining. Then they will join if it for them or not join because it isn't for them. If I could do it over again that is what I would do!

hi zandi, some don't have the patience to and some come here to expect immediate payout i don't know, but yeah like you i am much glued to this place, i don't have much free time to come here but i do each time, and if busy with something i may take a small break from here but i always return this place is so wonderful..

Well i have to say that i'm a newbie and i really like to be in mylot there is a lot of interesting topics and a lot of interesting people around the world, i really like this network. :)

ONE OF THE NEWBIES!! Hello zandi.. I'm just here in myLot for about a week.. I have read and posted a lot of things. I find it very fun and convenient. I did sign up for the money. I know that this is the site that I could surely trust.. Let's wait and see How long I'll last..:)

Yeah well, maybe they try it and find out the money's kind of slow? And of course it can be bad for them if they are only in it for the money. Take me for example, you'll see this reply as my first post. But really, I had my account removed for inactivity before. I had quite an experience in mylot a couple of years ago and got to about 200 posts but felt bad I wasn't getting much earnings. So I stopped only to come back now to be disappointed the old account is gone. In between I've had lots of exposure to discussion boards, forums and realized how much fun it is to join discussions. That being said, now I'm here to really join and whatever I will earn will be secondary, albeit still important. And yes, I share your hope to have newbies stay and become veterans. :) Cheers Zandi!
