I am new to this site. This was given to me by my new friend. Hmm... everything is new.. new to this site and a new friend. I find this interesting site because you can truly express what you think and see how people react also on some issues or concerns whether it is personal or global. Much I am enjoying the site, I have also trouble with some things here like uploading my personal picture in my profile and of course the most important thing is how to earn points to be converted to $$$$ hehehe... I have paypal account already but I have not earned even a single 0.0001$ yet, but I am patient, I am just a newbie and I am okay. Please guide me with my concerns such as putting personal photo like you do and how to earn points and how to tell the mylot.com that I have paypal account. (of course shooting to get more $$$ in the future) Any help will be appreciated and thank you sooooooooo much. Have a great week ahead friends.

You can add a personal picture by going to this page: http://www.mylot.com/nr/editcustomize.aspx Your PayPal information should be entered here: http://www.mylot.com/nr/editPayment.aspx I'm afraid you have a few misconceptions already, but that's okay. Let's clear them up! The number next to your name is just your activity rating. It's there to give other members an idea of how active you are here. Your rating will go up when you post a response on someone else's discussion, with the first comment you leave on another person's response in a discussion, and when the first person replies to a discussion you started. Your rating will go down if you posted something that gets removed by Mylot. You should have a look at the guidelines and FAQ page so you can avoid discussions that break the rules. Guidelines: http://www.mylot.com/o/guidelines.aspx FAQ: http://www.mylot.com/o/faq.aspx The big thing to remember is that (rating) points don't matter at all. There is no set amount that we are paid for our activity, and points don't convert to cash. How much you earn will depend on how active you are and the quality of your posts. Sometimes I earn more when I chat back and forth in only a couple discussions than I do when I'm in many discussions all over the boards. Please don't fret about the fact that you haven't seen your earnings update yet. Earnings only update once every 24 hours. The cutoff time for daily earnings is 23:59:59 according to the time at the bottom of every page. Everything you've earned from the time you joined through the next ~4 hours will be added to your account tomorrow. If you'd like to see when earnings last updated for everyone, that's at the bottom of this page: http://www.mylot.com/nr/earnings.aspx

Please do not ask anybody.Mylot is such a wonderful and full fledged site that it has left no options for us to inquire about any of our doubts. Everything is so transparent and white. Each and every your doubt can be cleared by following the instructions clearly stated in the said site. Welcome to the site. Just go on sharing and have a fun of gaining more and more knowledge and fun. Best luck.

hmmm.. not really roshigo. i hate to disagree, some of the rules are vague but I tried to live with it. I am okay with it now, with some good friends here that easy to PM and ask for clarifications. and the responses of the seniors themselves are great. Thanks for welcoming me. I am really having a good time here. Cheers!

Welcome to mylot, Mavic. The seniors are already helping you out. Pay attention to them for they always have the best advice. Don't concentrate on the money. You will do much better if you come here for the friendship and fun. READ THE GUIDELINES & FAQs. This is very important. Print them out if you like for easy reference. Relax and enjoy mylot for what it is - a discussion site. And don't forget - when you start a discussion always come back and comment on your responses. Not with a simple "thank you" as this will not increase your earnings. Continue the discussion. For instance, if you comment on my (and others) responses, I (and some others) will always come back and respond, leaving it open for you to comment again, then me, then you, etc. This is called a discussion and it's how you earn even more. Try it, you'll see. Happy mylotting!

I have not met anyone in person but I have made a few wonderful friends who give me much support in all the problems I have. I will give you another good tip. You can earn by using the mylot search tool up near the top of the page. But don't use it too much. If you use it enough you will get rewarded. And the reward shows up immediately in your earnings at the very top of the page. More info is here: www.mylot.com/w/discussions/2633433.aspx After 1, maybe 2 rewards in a day you should stop using it until the next day. After you have received a few rewards over time they become more substantial. And thank you for the friend request! I will accept.

Just go to the preference on the top of the page, and put all the information and change your photo or upload your photo. you can also put your payment information there. It is not points you earned here, it is money right away, so you don't need to convert it. Explore the site and you will know and understand how it works. I am also new here, it is about a week. Happy mylotting!

of course I do enjoy this even more. I may not be able to "master" the rules but oh well, I am just doing great. Still I am a victim of my actions here, like when I posted the "recycled" article from a site that is no longer active. So definitely my discussions was terminated immediately. and it puzzled me for awhile, then I found out that I "plagiarized" my own discussions. LOL
