I feel cheated by MyLot.

Greece
November 18, 2006 8:43am CST
Yesterday I was in MyLot doing really good work and effort and they added in my account only 0.5! I don't think that's fare. Too many problems and now I will make a fuss. What do you think about that? Have you any kind of problems?

Don't feel bad about it...look at the bright side of it.. You interacted with people from different culture, learned bits of pieces about things (not unless you respond to YES or NO questions only), and atleast you already got some money out of it. Just enjoy what you're doing. Don't make this look like a "JOB"... Don't get me wrong but I'm just airing up my what I think.

Yes, you are right. But they let people whoi answer with yes or no to make a great number of responses and they tell in their guidelines that this is forbidden.

They havent chaeted me yet but it is ridcuilis though that the short answers seem to make more then the long ones. I use to reply big long paragraphs but got nothing so I started just answering the yes or no ones and started actually getting somewhere. The user Macbus has hit over 6000 post and has made almost 100 this month alone!

I know what are you saying, but I feel like I'm cheating my own friends that way.

That's my point. In the old MyLot you would have gained 5$

if you post more of your own discussions versus just responding to people's posts, you will make more money. You earn every time someone responds to your post!

It is good but it isnot fair. You should have earned more. That's what I'm saying. Just beforethe MyLot was renewed an amount of 50 posts would have earned about 3$. Do you have anything to say about that?

It was probably 30 cents not 3 cents. But even 30 cents are less than expected. I think it is unfair

Come on! Just the day before with only 25 posts I made 1.12! How about that? Yesterday with 40 posts and a lot of interaction with the people that have answered to my discussions I earned only that 0.5! Unfair!

That's exactly what happend to me yesterday. I've got lots of responses for my topics and I commented on those just to bring it to the recent topics section so that more people can see it and more responses will pour in. I was really expecting to at least have a bit over than $0.50 (I just responded to 2-3 discussions yesterday, I just focused on my discussions so that I can see which of the two can generate more earnings). To my complete dismay I only got additional $0.22 for discussions! However, when I checked my earnings just now, $2.07 was added to my earnings when I just responded to I think 4-5 discussions, so I think, my supposed to be additional earnings yesterday was added just now.=)

I wish that has happened with me too. But insteadI had posted about 40 posts, made 2 new discussions, answered to almost all of my discussions that are almost 40 and I checked my friends' list.

I think part of the problem is people view this as "work", remember you are not employees. You are given the money as a bonus for being active and CONTRIBUTING to the discussions. Keep in mind very short posts and 1-3 word responses are not contributions usually.

i've been a member 2 days ago. first i posted 23 on discussions and earned $0.10. yesterday i posted 20 on discussion, started 2 topics with only 11 replies in all i've earned $0.58. as their guidelines say don't post on "yes" or "no" discussions because it will only lead to spamming. you must have quality posts because mylot is a discussion forum and give the readers more information so that the admin people has worth reading/reviewing for so that they can give you more bucks! hope i'm right LOL;)

Believe me after all this time, I know what is wrong and my answers aren't. But up to now I have cleared things out and I have no problem whatever they do.

I found this discussion by doing a search on earnings to see if there were any current discussions with my problem. You see I only made a whopping 1 cents yesterday and this is puzzling as I gained a referral who responded to more than 30 discussions and I did not even recieve anything for my referral earnings. There is a big dash where a figure is supposed to be. Also I posted maybe around 20 different responses and only earned 1 cent? What is going on? I enjoy having fun on here. Truly it isn't worth the time if you are here just for the money but I should have earned more. I hope it was an error because I too feel cheated. I usually respond with answers as long as this one. How could I recieve 1 cent for more than 20 of these? And what about my referral earnings? If I'm supposed to get 25% of their earnings does that mean they made less than 4 cents for all their work? Something is definitely wrong and I will rant on it all day. I enjoy being on here - it is fun but I don't enjoy being cheated.

Sorry to hear that. I remember my first day when I joined I put in alot of effort too and I only got paid $0.53 for that one day work. I don't think they pay much at all for doing more than you can. I think this is just a small amount of money, you shouldn't expect them to pay you more than they can give you. As you know this is not a job and they don't have to give more than they're willing. I was disappointed too when I found out what I was getting, and than I told myself this isn't a job and I'm not going to get a lot of money for being here.

Sometimes I do too. But Mylot's pay out fluctuates compared to how much money they are earning through the adds I am guessing. So if they are not earning well, we do not get paid out well. IT also depends on the type of conversations we answered, and how many people participated, if it was a good or bad discussion day, how well people responded, how long the responces were, how many people were removed, their their topics deleted, etc. Mylot does a very good job. Other times I noticed it as .3 when it means .30 cents so I don't know what that is about but I also noticed that at times... Take care all, Mylot is not perfect but earning 3 cents is better than no cents, as every little cent helps for those of us who been earning absolutely nothing for all the hard work we put into the world. Mylot is helping me earn some money to change my situation a little bit. - DNatureofDTrain

If you posted good responses then they should have paid you more, that's very sad. But I posted abot 50 responses and I got $o.53 which I think is not that bad.
