I have just read this in a blog http://mylot-get-paid-to-chat.blogspot.com/ I am not so sure whether the author of this blog has consulted the mylot FAQ. I cannot find it at least. Does earning a best response increase our earnings?

Hi ronaldinu, This is just my quest because I just joined myLot since last year. Since this post was posted in 2008, the information might be true at that time. As time goes by, myLot has move and do a lot of changes. But the blog writer did not update his blog along with myLot changes. I do not know. Just make a wild guess. There is a lot of misleading fact in that blog.

HI akuler, The lamb lies down is correct in his statement. By the way i have seen your video (The lamb lies down)... make sure to cut on smoking :) Did not know that there is a gentle giant behind... behind the screen!

No, it isn't accurate. You don't earn when you get a best reposne. You only earn from participation. Someone should let this guy know this. It is not correct.

It is news to me that you are paid when you get BR. I don't know how far this writer can attest to her/his claim. If it is true, I have something around 900 BR and I don't see any increase in my earnings except for the participations I have accomplished here. Another fabrication to entice others to join mylot to get referrals?

i am also not sure about it...though i have heard about it from many users that ...when we get best response, it increases our earnings...i dont know exactly how much ...but have seen that my earnings increased more than expected when i was given best response....so maybe its true...but there is nothing mentioned perfectly anywhere i think...

No eshaan it is not true. WE don't get paid for receiving a best response award. It has been stressed a couple of times.

Well, i cant say it's a yes or no.. Because i dun really keep track of my earnings or how does it work.. Mylot has got a strange way of working things.. Just like many are saying, we dun earn by adding comments to the posts we have already responded, but they are all so wrong.. I dunno where they get the impression from.. As for the BR increasing of earnings, it might be true, if not why the need to have the BR in the first place??

I think you got your facts wrong this time. To my knowledge we don't earn for Best Response Awards but we do earn for commenting on replies that we receive in our discussions. I hope that other mylotter or the admin will clarify this issue.

As others have already mentioned it is not true that earning a Best Response will increase earnings and yes, there are a few misleading ‘facts’ on that blog! I wish people would not publish incorrect information like that because new members are going to join here with expectations that are just not going to be met. Not much can be done about it. I want to leave a comment on the blog but I doubt it will be published if I point out the errors...

Maybe it is inactive. That's why it is very important that newbies read the mylot FAQ and seek guidance from veteran mylotters here.

I asked mylot a couple of years ago and got a direct response. No, a best response does not increase our earnings.

Thanks AmbiePam for your reply, basically you are confirming what other mylot veterans are saying! This should be stamped in our minds for a very long time. Thanks.

hi ronaldinu no no no, Go ask Alice has stated that a number of times here a best response does not earn you a penny, so where in the world did this author come up with this.for one thing if it is not in mylot information then it is not true. for another thing if people would read Alice's discussions they would see you do not get paid for best responses. its just a nice gesture from your mylot friends.[i][/i][u][/u]

This blog is doing a great disservice as it disseminates misinformation. I just pointed out this thing as it might lead to mylotters believing that we are really paid for earning a best response award. Thanks for your reply.
