Just curious, I have been on Mylot off and on most of the day in between working on other things online this afternoon, I have posted a couple of topics and responded to many topics, not only my own but those of others as well. What I am wondering is, through all of this throughout the last several hours my earnings have not increased at all. Is my content not of good enough quality to earn or is the system just not working right at this time? If anyone could shed light on this matter that would be great!

I don't know exactly how the actual system works. In the past, we were paid only once a day, and if a discussion was deleted, it was deduced from our earning. Times to times there was also adjustments adding or removing money to accounts. So, I believe that if you have had a deleted discussion, or if you have responded/commented to a deleted discussion, you will not be paid for the discussion, responses or comments.
Otherwise, I think that your discussions are good and you have not to worry about their quality.

Thanks for your reply, I remember how the old system worked with once a day updates, I was however, under the impression from what other Mylotters had posted that the new system updates every hour but I could be wrong in that regard, I do see now that I have had a slight bump in my earnings so maybe I was just jumping to conclusions I don't know.
Anyway thanks for the reply and the compliment, I appreciate that as I try very hard to write content that either will generate new discussion or add to an on going discussion in a positive way!

@topffer It's all good. Its hard to differentiate between who is new and who is old around here other then by looking at post counts. I wish I would have had regular access to a computer back in Mylot's glory days, I loved it around here and probably would have ended up making thousands of posts had that been the case.
Thank you again for your input!

The earnings program is still being tested. Although it says (in the FAQs) that the earnings will be updated approximately hourly, at this stage we cannot expect that to always hold true. Just be patient: everything will eventually work smoothly ... and don't worry! Your earnings WILL be calculated fairly by the time you reach payout.

It did eventually catch back up, and I wasn't trying to accuse anyone of anything I was just more or less curious as to whether others were having similar issues or if maybe the content I was writing wasn't up to snuff for some reason. And if that had been the case I more or less was just curious so I could improve my content delivery now in the early stages of getting back into Mylot instead of when things really get rolling as more and more people return here and there are more interesting conversations to be had.
Thank you for your input though its only through working together and sharing knowledge that we all grow and benefit from this community.

Earnings are updated by the hour and I see that happening with me. I do not know what could have gone wrong with you.

I'm not sure, it does seem to be working fine now. Earlier though I had a two or three hour period where my earnings didn't seem to change. Either way I'm happy now as it's working again and I'm having good conversation with many here on Mylot.

@phuong90900 MyLot was in the past 100% reliable. They ALWAYS paid on time, every time. (I have been a member since 2006).
They will NOT, however, pay you unless you follow the very simple Community Guidelines! Please read them carefully. You can find them and other information under "Help" at the top left, next to your avatar.
