Silly Questions about Mylot.

Maybe you are right. Or maybe they are out of ideas. Which goes back to your theory of them only thinking about money.

for the newbie like me ,i don't think many of us post silly questions like you said.first ,someone really don't know what the answers they ask;second ,it can save the time to get the answers;and ask what they want to know is the most direct way just get the useful informations.so ,it just one people gets informations in his style or in different way,but ont silly.

I have seen quite a lot of posts of that nature so obviously I appreciate what you mean. Nevertheless, I have mixed emotions on this, which is dependant upon the reason behind the discussion. Some members simply ask the most petty questions either to save them selves the trouble of reading the guidelines or as an easy way to acquire responses, in which case I agree with you entirely that this is wrong. On the other hand there will be members who have checked through the guidelines and are still rather unsure about some points, in which case I feel that we should offer whatever help and advice we can.

hemm' I guess I am one of them I sign here because I don't have a job so my first aim is money when i was sign up here is that wrong?

Most I think are the beginner here in Mylot. We couldn't blame them all they want is to earn money. They think that Mylot is fast earning site. When they always participating here they will know how to increase their earnings here.

I am raising my hand now. Guilty. Guilty and Guilty. and yes I don't read FAQ in all sites I visited, I just check if I have a problem. Sometimes, it is easier to ask questions that to search and look for the answers, since there are so many helpful seniors very willing to guide newbies like me. I am Guilty, I just depend on seniors to help me out. But on the hand, I really can't understand some guidelines, honestly, like the questions looks like a poll but really not a poll but just getting some information on people's view on some issues in life or concerns globally. LOL. I dont know really ... Cheers.

hi swats I think that if all mylotters who are new would really just use t he links given to them by mylot admins and read the darned guidelines and the FAQ's too they would lose much less discussions earn better and maybe make friends 'afind out th e real mylot. mylot a lot more than just a discussion form. we make friends from all over the world, and w e share and care and help one other. it is a haven, a place o therapy and a fun place to talk to other people.read all the info then oc me here and have fun with all of us.

i never read FAQ or another else about mylot but i would never ask about those silly questions i think..lol.. i think you are right that most people come here just for money. some if them have limited English but they are got info from friend that this site will pay if we write something in English. then they ignore its role play. that is why they never pay attention to the rule. all they do is writing and being paid. frankly speaking i came here some years ago also because of money but i learned fast to understand how this site works. and it hindered me from asking silly questions. now my motivation is not only money but also to practice my English. English is not my first language so i need a media to practice it so it wont fade away..

I have noticed that too. But I try to give them a warm welcome and also by telling them what they really need to know before posting more discussions. I guess, not all have really read the FAQs before posting more discussions maybe because they think that they can earn from posting or that they are just too lazy to check out the guidelines. But I don't remember posting the same questions here when I was new.

Well, I ask mylot questions if they are not included in the FAQs. Yeah. Some people are only after of the money and appreciate the beauty of enjoying here in mylot.

Maybe some people have no time to read the guide line,just heard such a website from his friends.

they haven`t read the FAQ that`s why they are posting some discussion about earnings in mylot maybe someone refer them but never explain to them the rules of this site..they thought that posting any kind of discussion here is okay.. so they end up posting the forbidden..

Hello I think silly questions like this will just be wiped off when it comes to mylot sorting out what deserves there money,so when people try to make quick money buy cheating they do not realize that it will blow up in there face and that they have basically been doing it for nothing. I do not think people like this last very long on mylot.

Well, I am new here. But I made sure to read the FAQs. I know I dont know everything as yet but I think it is more of a learning process. I think such questions should be banned on mylot with the reason stated as 'Read the FAQ'.

It's pure laziness on their part. Most of these questions concerning myLot are clearly explained in the guidelines if they had just bothered to read them. What puzzles me more is that some members would even explain it to them. I know they meant well, but I think it would be better if we just direct them to the guidelines instead.

I tend to agree with you! I have seen some silly questions posted by newbies. The odd part was that if I recall I thought that once you finish adding your interests that you are directed to the myLot tab. I could be mistaken as it has been about three years now since I joined the myLot site. I would add to your list of silly things that newbies do is that they post tons of discussions that are all similar. It is like they want to know about myLot so they post five discussions each asking a separate question about the site when in truth they could have posted all five of their questions under the same discussion. I mean it just seems ridiculous and in my opinion clutters up the site to make all these discussions. The worst part I think is that we tend to keep repeating things over and over for the newbies. For some, it seems no matter how many times we say it they just still do not get it. Also, they seem to have no clue that they can actually search for the answer to their question. They seem to not even know how to use the search bar (sorry for being so blunt). If they did, they would find the previous discussions where we have all said exactly how to make money on myLot is by participating. Truthfully, I do not see that posting a single one line question that any member here could answer in about two seconds really qualifies for posting a discussion. I have been surprised that myLot has not deleted more of these discussions. I tend to not post much on these newbies discussion because I never know if they will be deleted or not. It generally goes along the lines of directing them to the myLot tab to actually read the myLot guidelines. I am just going to ask the question. Is reading becoming a lost skill here in the 21st Century. I am serious when I say this because I feel like so many newbies feel like this site is all about earning. They post, post, post, till they are blue in the face. Some of them seem as though they rarely read a word of what is on myLot. Sometimes people just post discussion, and they never post a comment back to the people that respond. Seriously, do they just choose not to read the responses they got on their discussion question. It is like they think that it is an article posting site where you type something, and you leave it. Well, myLot is not like that at all. It is an interactive site. You are meant to read and interact with people on the discussions.

You are correct and I do agree with you, if such question any new members here asked it we can understand their problems, but when old members asked such question then? Whenever any members join this site they must read the FAQ plus Do's & Don't of Mylot which will surely help them to solve their problems, if any they have in regards to earning on this site.

I think that is also one of the reasons why I was not able to encounter the veterans during my first days in myLot. Because I don't ask any question even though the truth, there are times that I really don't know what to do, he he. What I do is I search my question and presto! The discussions with the same questions appeared. Those members whom I reffered would usually send me a pm in order to know something they don't know but they don't started a discussion out of it. Have a nice day!

Sometimes people are lazy to read that guidelines and prefers to ask the members because members explains it in layman's term , so it's easy to understand. Some FAQ also are not easy to understand , so different views from members can enlighten another Mylotter. For me silly questions are better than a very personal private question. Good day !

I agree with you.Almost all people are asking silly question here.Or maybe I think they ask silly question to earn money simply...
