What's the difference between participation and rewards?

In the Frequently Asked Questions there is a specific section dedicated to REWARDS: http://www.mylot.com/o/faq/faq24.aspx

Reward came when we use Mylot search bar regularly Earning from participation appear around 24 hours after you create /response discussions

hi keeperdream I think the info you needed was in the FAQ's someplace. but participation is just what we do in each 24 hour period on mylot and you did not make much if you just made a discussion as its only a few pennies for making it as the only money in making discussions is to comment back to each one of the responses you get then you will earn really well.You DO NOT GET PAID FOR OUR RESPONSES TO YOUR DISCUSSION. MYLOT DOES NOT PAY YO FOR WHAT SOMEONE ELSE DOES. YOU TYPE YOU GET PAID. I TYPE I GET PAID , If someone tells you that tell them that is not TRUEe as here on mylot as in the real business world we do not get paid for someone else's work.

Participation means the role you are playing in mylot by starting your own discussions and responding to discussions started by others. Rewards, on the other hand, are achieved in the form of money by using the mylot search engine.
