M2E is a major, developing social site which can displace FB at the top but somehow it is not popular here at myLot. I wonder why? Any ideas????

From what I gathered it is going to be a game of sorts and that it will be one where businesses can set up shop in there is already a game like this though and it was the first to do this. Its called Secondlife. The game was almost a complete failure and hasn't made much ground because most people play games to have fun while secondlife didn't do this. From what I gathered from www.me2everyone.com is that is what they are doing and well as it has already been tried and it wasn't too sucessful even to this day secondlife has yet to make any real gains this won't really work out unless they are going to in some way have a better set up than what secondlife did which from what I could tell it doesn't even look like they are aware of there being a secondlife.

You know there are over 20 million people with Second Life accounts, right?

Yeah I use to be one of them. Also that is just with accounts not actively playing I am sure I still have an account active somewhere in that game that I haven't touched in years. As well the game isn't that well designed it had some good ideas with the people can create there own universe with it but the load times for most levels will get players to just quit after a while I don't play games to wait an hour and a half on a 12mbps connection. I mean I could be doing far more productive things. So I left secondlife because of the game seemingly not to improve on anything Linden Labs needs to come up with a optimization strategy that they can inform people who own land to know about so that more of the game loads faster and more people can enjoy it the active accounts on secondlife obviously can handle waiting long time for an area to fully load while people in game development even at an indie level can't because we have long since passed a point where things take that long to load. I mean Secondlife will turn your internet into a dial up connection. I have even tried connecting on a Fiber optic line and still dialup was the load time.

Probably because it's not popular enough. There is something about Facebook, Twitter, and Myspace that make them the top three social Networking websites out on the web today... and that's member traffic. While this M2E may be well-known in your neck of the woods, the truth is it's not as well-known as you might think. Consider the amount of people world wide who use Facebook for example. According to a news article I heard on T.v. recently when reporting on Facebook, despite some setbacks (as will all sites) it has over 70 billion members world-wide. My guess M2E doesn't have nearly that many members, and is probably advertized locally.
I see many banner adds while browsing the web. As do many others who use the internet. Yet, unless I knew to look for it, truth is I probably wouldn't find it. So to answer your question. It's not known enough on mylot, because not enough members use it. If there is a dusscision in reguards to it, it's posted in a more generalized section. Just like you did by posting in "internet surfer"

Maybe because they encouraging people to join this site due to shares but unfortunately the page wherein you can get shares is not working. The site was not totally launched yet after more than two years in the making. Has anybody gain any earnings on this site or even get paid?

Perhaps because as far as I can tell M2E hasn't launched yet. Perhaps because it's been in pre-launch for about two years. Maybe because there's nothing on the homepage about what's actually inside. Maybe because all that means it looks very much like a complex scam.
Or maybe just because I joined about two years ago and now my login doesn't work. Quelle surprise.
I guess it is not really popular yet in my country
