I am just really enjoying seeing the welcome that new friends receive. I know part of it is that they are willing to jump in and have fun like the rest of us. Still, it makes me feel good to see them enter into the banter. I like how @TierrasOceanView gives people nicknames and makes them feel at home with her friendly and casual manner.
We are not an exclusive club and I do not think we try to be.
I also enjoy reading how long time members try to assist others who may be having difficulty with the site.
@Owlwings does a great job and so does @topffer .
I could have a huge list, so people, I did not intentionally leave you out.
I am just glad to have my (and your) myLot back.

Yes,@allknowing,I have and am glad.Actually They honour our labour by reading our posts and like and comment on them.Whatever we earn it's because they trouble themselves for us.

Actually, you are another I thought of putting in the list but half the time my links do not work. It was late and I see that they did not work well. I see I capitalized wrong last night.

Not only do I try to respond to the posts, but I also try to interact with a great number of people on other discussions as well. I try to talk with as many people as possible in as many places as possible, because not only is it fun but also it gives as so many more opportunities to interact and earn.

Since you mention us both, I'd like to say here that I can see (and like &c) but not interact with @TiarasOceanView's discussions, responses and comments and nor are there any options available for me on her profile. It looks as though she has blocked me, but that is a puzzle, because, if she had blocked me, I should not be able to see her posts, I believe.
Ah well! Yes, I'm very glad to see MyLot back to its old form again ... even better than it was, I think, actually!

@topffer I am glad it is only my links are broken. I must not be holding my mouth right or something. I would really miss it if she was not suggesting and commenting on my posts.

You are not alone. I am also blocked by the same member like many among us, and I can see all her discussions and some of her comments in discussions started by others. The blocker can see everything we are posting and can even post to our discussions, although we would not see the response... Lamb asked for a better blocking feature in a discussion a few days ago, and I follow him on this point.

@sacmom I am trying really, really hard to behave today, so maybe I should stay out of your box until tomorrow.

I'm just glad to see the number of faces (both new and old) growing steadily by the day. I really missed the sense of community that myLot always had, not to mention the liveliness of the site at all hours of the day or night. I'm really missing the activity from the Asian members when it's night on our side of the world. I hope that more of them will either come back to us or join for the first time once word gets out that myLot is paying again.
Huge hugs to everyone who reads this--you're what makes this site awesome!

You know, there are times when I wish that I could actually reach out and give people real hugs, and you are definitely one of the ones that I would hug if I could!

@GardenGerty I was naughty and Owl has put me in Remedial and made me sit in the corner with a dunce cap on and made me change my name as well to alert unsuspecting, innocent people that I will randomly venture off topic.

Many of us went to that other site when this one was no longer a happy place. However, with the old owners taking over we are flocking back here.

Welcome to myLot! When you say that you are seeing some familiar names, I am assuming that they are from a different site that y'all were on.

At one time I was on Hubpages and I have seen a name here that was there and another site. I gave up on hubpages cause they want articles so long which I can't do, but I miss them

This is my first time back in a long while. I left when everyone else left the first time. So far I haven't seen too many familiar people. I guess we'll see who all comes back. It's amazing how this place used to practically be like a ghost town, and now everyone is on their way back again.

Hi GG. Thank you so much for the mention friend.
I have known you for many years from the old site.
Happy to see all the old friends here too.
Never did much sites other than myLot, even when the old site left.
I also love to see your discussions and know you have been busy with moving to your new house.
I am not getting many suggestions from friends here, so I just find them on my own! Glad I found this one.

I also have seen a lot of friends from previous sites here too! It's nice to be able to continue the friendship elsewhere.
