Linking your facebook account with your mylot account

I have no plans to link my myLot account to my Facebook account. myLot used to be my 'safe place' to come and have fun online. I'm really not friends with any drama llamas, and I try to watch what I say online since nothing's really private when you put it out here. I've occasionally shared a few discussions from here with friends if the topic would appeal to them. A few knew what myLot was way back when, and they'd laugh at me for posting here so often. They didn't get that there was more to it than the earnings.

Oh no, I would never ever link my Facebook with here - or any of these writing sites. I do a lot of venting and well, I write about the people who are there - ha ha. How embarrassing it would be for them to discover that I had been writing about them - and for me the writer too! Nope, I'm keeping both worlds separate - as far away as I can!!

MyLot appears to be trialling such a system, according to the error message I get when I post a discussion. The link to Twitter is already working, I believe. It may be suitable for some people and not for others. I would only share my posts with some people (I have used the FB feature which categorises friends into groups and I would usually share my posts only with certain groups).

No linking for me. I talk more freely about some situations here that I wouldn't on facebook because I want to keep peace. - My husband's family, and my Mother's family have done some not nice things that I have mentioned here but not there. But the things I've shared here would be things that I don't care if they find out about because it wouldn't change my thoughts on it. It just would cause drama for my husband which I try to avoid.

I do not have a Facebook account, so this really does not apply to me. If I did have one, I certainly would not link it here, though. There are too many people that want to be stupid in "real life", and I come here to have fun and escape the drama, so welcoming them to the playground does not seem like a good idea to me.

Whatever. My personal views - I might not be happy to link FB and MyLot but I have realized that it is always a good idea to put up your FB link somewhere - maybe on your profile or elsewhere. I would not have been able to stay connected with my MyLot friends if I did not know at least some of the FB accounts. When almost all left MyLot, I was very very lonely (and I do mean it literally). Luckily, some had their FB locations mentioned on their profiles and I used those details to connect. Thanks a million to @PhredWreck for setting up the MyLot Alumini group where I could find many and connect with them.

I don't link Facebook to mylot account. What I'm saying here reflect who I am, but sometimes I just don't feel like talking so much to my friends in real world, especially when I know they have different opinions than I have. I am open for opinions and discussions, but there are something when I have made up my mind, I'm unlikely to change them, especially I believe I'm doing good and the right thing. Some of my friends are too caring and they keep on advising me on not doing something. I understand their worries, but I hope they can respect my decisions too. I find it more freely to discuss such topics here, especially homeschooling and parenting, as people here are more respectful and they do not wish to change my mind. Moreover, I'm getting more supports about my homeschooling decision and parenting styles online here than from my real world friends.

Same thing. Rather not link my FB and myLot although I have nothing to hide. I do have my FB page link on my profile though.

I wouldn't either, but mostly because there are people on my Facebook that I don't want to have that sort of insight into my life. I don't post a lot on Facebook these days, mostly I just post the kid's fundraiser things for band and some other non-important things.. but I don't want to let most of those people into my real life!

I can provide an argument for putting an FB link option as it might help in increasing the user count on this site. More users, more ways to interact. On the flipside, it would be too cluttered with personal topics that not everyone might be interested in. That would be the crux of the argument against putting up an FB linking option.

FB and myLot are two separate entities each with a purpose that has nothing to do with each other. I agree with you.

Facebook or Twitter, I don't think I will add any of them with myLot

I don't link facebook with anything. At one time I had my Twitter linked to Pinterest cause I needed to link one or the other. But, they opened it up so I don't have to have it linked anymore. I really see no valid reason for doing so. Others may think so though.

I wouldn't want that to happen automatically, because some stuff I don't want posted to FB.

I am with you..I use this place to vent some frustrations about people and if it was linked all would know who i was talking about..

I saw that option, but usually what I have here as a discussion has no depth. (no offense meant to mylot). if I write a good article I post the link in my FB account, it is something to share with my friends and family, and something to be proud of.

I would never consider it.

Well not to offend anyone on here or anything, but I keep this site and my facebook separate because I have actual family and friends over there that I share things with that I probably don't say on here. Not that what I say over here or there is bad, just different.

I link my my mylot account on my twitter account but for facebook, I think it's not necessary because I'm not active on facebook

Wel given that I just wrote part 1 of a short story on here, I might link my mylot to my facebook, just people can read my hort fiction... Anything to get my work more exposure. My other opinionated posts not so much...
