Second Attempt here MYLOT HAS NO RATES REPEAT AFTER ME MYLOT HAS
NO RATES So how can we answer those dozens of discussions asking what pays more making discussions or responding to them? We have no set of given rates for each thing we do here as we are each paid individually according to the quality of our posts. I doubt if any two people will make the same amount. Also asking about all this is fruitless. the only answer I can give is to participate and make sure you do your best quality work on each post.

I thought I was the only one who read it that way PPE!! Hubby just usually makes a comment that says "I read that too fast". It is marching band season so I guess Pom pom makes more sense, especially with the drum roll. Maybe we could get a flourish of trumpets as well.

Okay here I go: "MYLOT HAS NO RATES REPEAT AFTER ME MYLOT HAS NO RATES" Hope that was loud enough.
Yes participate, participate and on a Green Day you may be Very Happy!
We can guide and say all we like it is ultimately up to the member to buckle up and participate with ease, interest and quality and allow the earnings to flow.
It is of great joy to see one every so often who does listen, keeps us continuing to help all others hoping for the next one to succeed too.

The admin will never make public their well guarded rates making us believe that mylot has no rates I do believe many of us here are happy as we have a good paymaster who never fail in their obligations. As long as we enjoy the fun here, the rates is a secondary matter.

hi zandi yes I know for me the friendship and caring and sharing
are the best part of mylot and my earnings are a happy sort of frosting on my mylot cake.In a way its good not to have a set in stone rates here as we an always improve our quality writing and earn more each time as we are paid for what they feel our individual quality posts are worth.So we can always improve and earn a bit more.

Well, if a person really wants to know how much we are making we can figure it out. If we do ten or even twenty five responses one day we can then look and see what we have made and then divide and there we go. So it isn't impossible to know what we are making. And I just recently got paid for using the Mylot search engine. Wasn't much but I finally got the notification.

If we then spend our time making 25 comments, even on the same thread or the same response, going back and forth, THEN we know what we earn when we do what myLot was created for - discussing.
Many are surprised by what they see but then they carry on doing it

hi celtic yes I have noticed that the older ones get more personal and so manytimes I do gravitate there as I get concerned when one is ill or has problems and think wow i did have that probvlem and we did such and such so I go and share it. it may help of it may ot but I tried. I have gotten so attached to so many of my friends here and really feel for them when they get kayoed with cancer or other serious problems.I never will forget moaning to someone about my problems then hearing she had multiple sclerosis and boy did I feel horrid as my problems shrank besides the ones she faces daily.But then I learned to be grateful for what I did have and not worry about what I did not have.lol. live and learn,.

I've gotten to a place where I know when I have made what my goal is for the day. I think the most important thing is to do quality work and let the rest take care of itself. I do get involved in the discussions and how people are living and what's up in their lives. The older ones that is. You notice that? The older ones are more personal and the young ones are all about the music and work.

Hi there Hatley
Ah so this was what your original 'lost' discussion was all about. Hmm let me see now, I would say that you are on a mission to inform everybody what is what here in mylot but alas I feel it is with your previous discussion and a lost cause! hahha. There will always be mylotters asking the same questions about how to earn money here and the endless discussions about it can be tiresome I know but such discussion will always be present as new people join. Good on ya though for trying

Hi Hatley, how much we would be paid doing post here depends only on the effort putting in and time spending here. There isn't any free lunch for doing nothing. Instead of starting discussion asking for how to get ample payment we might as well to read and get familiar with descriptions related to discussion earning available in guidelines and FAQs. To make a long story short we would be paid according to quality posts made here. We would get nothing more if we don't comment back to responses in our own discussion even though lots of respondents join in the discussion.
I like participate in friends who like to comment back my responses. It would be more fun in case there are lots to share with. This also provides more chances for both parties to earn more if having the interesting back and forth commenting
Happy posting

I spend most of my leisure replying post here and seldom writing discussion, even though I'm very glad to see your discussions getting ample responses It's definitely that more back and forth commenting will keep the discussion going on with vigor. Such authentic discussion not only looks lively it also provides great opportunity for participants to continue sharing their respective ideas in their descriptive quality posts, it's sure that all will earn more at the same time Lol... joy seems like overflowing if always doing so with great fun.

I laughed when I read your discussion. It has been nearly two years since I have been on My lot. I can see some thiongs have not changed. These same questions will always be asked. Whether peole dont read the guidelines properly, or ar ejus t curious as to what foprmula works , I don't know. I believe my lot do have a secret formula. It is secret, becasue if people knew what it was, others would manipulate it and abus e the system.
If people really want to know how to earn more, I can only suggest they lok at someone who does earn more from My lot, and have a good look at wha they do.

was talking about how mylot does not have a set rate of pay for the various things we get paid for on mylot,so we are paid solely for the quality of our posts, the better the quality the better we earn. Now if this flies off grrrrrr., copy paste of course.

MYLOT HAS NO RATES! MYLOT HAS NO RATES!
Hi Hatley,
People who asking which way will get more pay probably will not stop unless there are clear information on how to earn, how much will it pay you and what you should do to get pay and again how much it will pay you for your each action or participation.
People who came with the motive to earn money will always have such a question in their mind as long as they did not get the answer. That is something that we cannot denied and that is what so call human being. It is natural. . People are always curious to know when someone trying to hide something. The more they hide, the more they will want to know.
MyLot is really different from other paying site where most of them will tell you clearly what you should do and what to do and how much you will be paid. But that doesn't apply to myLot.

h yspmyl but don;t you see that mylot's way actually pays
more if they would just shut up, stop the fruitless
discussions, go read the guideline the rules of discussion
and the questions and answers as they do explain how
they pay.they pay for quality so its open the world is your
oyster if you put some effort into your post you will
earn for it, and if you improve that effort next time you
will make more. may be mylot needs to do more explaining as
obviously the hordes coming here are not high IQ p eople but
one hundred or less. I had not thought of that. I have a high
IQ and supposed a lot coming here also have and could see that
we are paid according to how well we make a post.quality over
quantity is emphasized in the guidelines.so in essence every tiny detail here for those who are not so bright must be explained in words a fifth grader can understand also these people who only want money do not much care for socializing either I suppose as its even been asked do we get paid for each friend we make? I truly give up at that point.I need money too as I am a senior living on social security but I do not debase myself by being money crazy.I have been in dire straits but still I keep money as a lesser priority than friends and family.

Hi Hatley,
What I mean here is those people want to know the exact answer on how much they can earn per post or for each discussion they reply such as $0.01 per post for example. Just mention on quality post is too abstract for many people especially those who only want to earn money.
Quality for everyone will be different and if they think their short respond is the best quality from them, that is their quality, mean quality is hard and cannot be measure without a proper instruction such as how many words must have in a respond to be consider as a good quality respond and so on. So, for people who are new and unfamiliar with mylot will definitely scratching their head pretty hard to understand what quality mean to mylot.

Hatley: Mylot has certain norms and that we call as rates. Hence mylot has its own rate of rating the performance of people and rewarding them. So Mylot has specified rates which are not specifically known to any one of us. However logic is the more you give valid points you earn more. type more, earn more seems to summarise it briefly./

hi ravision I guess I was not quite clear I mean rates of earnings such as 4 cents for this 2 for that, 5 for something else. I am not talking about the rating of our reputations. rating can be used in several ways and here I am talking about how mylot did not give us a set of how much is paid for things, all we are to do is make quality posts and we will be paid for whatever quality we have. no two people will earn the same thing. Yes type more and have it qu ality y ou will earn more but type garbage no you will not.

why bother to post it and waste both our times.Like you
said nobody should come in here and think they are
going to make huge amounts of money. those who write so many pages on how do we make money on the net are so naive. they believe all the hooey about making thousands in a week, When it sounds too good to be true, it is not. alot of them in fact most are scams.They get you to put up thirty dollars then give you a page which you are to
copy and send to a whole lot of people and on this page its the same words written that suckered you into spending thirty dollars. what a racket and naive people still fall for it and expect huge fortunes.
If they accept that you can make a reasonable amount here by doing a lot of participating they will h ae fun, make new friends, and have a nice next egg.
