Are You Still Earning for Older Discussions?

United States
September 11, 2015 2:03pm CST
I wonder if some of the members that have been here on myLot for years are still getting interactions and earning from their very old discussions. Has anyone seen any interactions on older discussions or are only the newest discussions getting the attention?

Yes. If there is any recent activity on your old discussions, you will be compensated/rewarded in exactly the same way as for new discussions. I have been back to some of my old discussions and commented or 'liked'. That will automatically send an email to the person I commented to or 'liked' and several people have come back here as a direct result.

As my hands are rather tied today, that is what I am going to do... visit my old posts and remember some old happy faces

That is great! I would love to help bring inactive members back! It would be good if they stayed here at myLot too. It's really a great community to be a part of.

No, so I deleted some of them, and started over. I did have one response awhile back on one of them, but that is all I received after I commented back to it. I deledted the ones that I felt didn't apply to me anymore. I did redo a few there were old at one time. Delleted them, and started over, and now I am getting responses to them, and lots of comments, as i keep commenting back. I am glad about that too, as it is always nice to get responses and comments to my discussions that I thought I never would.

@Angelee_27 I did it and gave it the same title. It was accepted, and I am getting a lot of respnses too, so yes you can do that. i just didn't want to forget abot them compeltely, as I had received responses to them before mylot changed, so I figured, I would redo it and see what happens, and I am so glad that people like my discussions enough to respond to them.

@rosekiss I may do that. I have a lot of discussions I would like to re-post and see how many responses I get.

@rosekiss Is it allowed here in myLot to delete a really old post and re-post again as a new discussion?

Sadly no. I also try not to comment on old topics unless the member is active and I just love the topic.

I have seen several old, inactive members return because they got a response, comment or like on an old post. It's worth doing and you DO get paid for activity on old discussions in exactly the same way.

@owstalaga Yes, they'll get an e-mail which may entice them to come back to myLot to check their discussions! Hopefully, they will stay too!

Sometimes a comment pops in one of those discussions that you had done away with. Its always a pleasant surprise to find such a response. I don't know how these people stumble into that old discussion. But any response is always welcome to every one of the old discussion.

I think maybe they come across them by using the myLot search and decide to comment.

@Shine10Mathew I haven't had anyone comment on any of my old ones yet, maybe someone will. It would be cool!

@Angelee_27 That may very much be the reason. Still its an awesome feeling to know that someone read your old article.

I have a lot of old discussions, but i have never seen my older post come alive and still have responses on them. I actually did try to check them out but still my responses on each one of them were the last response on them =) I guess the newer ones get the attention.

Yes you still earn from very old and new discussions, if some people interaction with those.

I have commented on some old discussion threads that dated to 2009, but I do not know if my participation earns me anything. I also do not know if my old discussion threads earn anything. It is hard to know unless there is a way to filter out the discussion thread that earns us money.

I just think it is rare for people to check out old discussions. That is why most do not earn that much. It could be a residual income if there was enough people looking at older posts and responding. Most people only look at the new stuff.

It would be nice for us to get a residual income here on myLot for our old posts, but like you said not too many people check them out.

I don't see any interactions of my older posts. What I got are responses and comments for my discussions that I started upon coming back.

Not me, I had my account removed, however, I couldn't remove my replies on other member's posts and if I earn by my activity and someone replies to my comment and I reply back, I might earn from that.

Well, I've only been here a few days, but I have seen several discussions from a few years ago pop up in the You Might Also Like section.

@Angelee_27 - I am quite new here on the myLot deal, but every one of my discussions (?) will be an old discussion in that I am a really old geezer.

Well, I am fairly new here but I hope that it works that way. But I heard from other members tha tthis site stopped for a time so I wonder what ever happened to the posts before and members before.
