You Have Got To Be Kidding Me!

Last night I was on one of my paid forum posting sites and I came across a topic titled MyLot, curious I clicked it, well the person posting the topic was wanting to know how you earned here and if you really got paid and such. No big deal. My surprise was when I started reading the comments. Most of the comments were totally off track. Most of the comments said users here were uninviting, it was hard to get comments on your discussions unless you were popular here, no matter how much you commented on others' discussions. One person even went as far as naming two members here, one of which in the time I've been here I've never had an encounter with and the other he just gives his opinion like the rest of us, stating that they tried to be overbearing and moderate the whole thing and if you could deal with them then good luck.
Of course I had to comment and let the original poster know that this is a very friendly, helpful community. There were a few other regulars from here that I saw give good vibes too. I can't believe that there were so many bad comments about us on there. I guess it was just those who could not follow guidelines, so they want to bash a whole community for their ignorance. What do you all think?

Wow! I think this is a great place but not everybody thinks that I guess. I agree the people who were banned for not following rules are probably the people on there complaining. We know how great we are so we can just ignore them and keeping being great!!

@Happy2BeMe Exactly, I joined here about a year ago. I did not know anyone here either and everyone welcomed me also and I too feel at right at home here. It feels as if we are all family or really close friends. I haven't had any problems with anyone because everyone here has been extremely friendly and nice.

@Happy2BeMe Funny thing was it was like twenty five pages worth of negative comments with only a few good ones. I couldn't believe it when they said we were unfriendly and not matter how much you interacted unless you had a lot of friends here you would not get any responses on your discussions. Most said they still had active accounts here but they just didn't fool with it because of us being so unfriendly. Oh well their loss not ours.

@melissa1024 That is kind of funny. I joined here 7 months ago not knowing anybody and I was welcomed and I immediately felt at home. I never had a problem fitting in and I can honestly say I have not had a bad experience here at all.

I try to welcome in many of the new people and see many others doing the same. I can't please everyone and don't have time to be here 24/7. If a new person doesn't make any comments to the people that welcomed them to the site, then that person shouldn't expect me to continue posting when that person is ignoring me.

@Fishmomma Yes, I try to welcome new members also. But, like you I'm not here all the time. We do have lives outside of here. I totally agree if they do not comment back or interact with you some how, it is quite impossible to be friendly with them. I am like you, I am not going to talk to someone who continually ignores me.

Since we can't please everyone, let them be. There's always someone on the negative side.
If that poster used to post a discussion with only two lines like these, 'I love food, let's discuss', then how are we supposed to response? There's a lot of posts like that lately.
There's always a guideline on any site. If they break it, they will still be ban. Mylot is not the only site with that.

@prinzcy Yes, my thoughts exactly. But, I could not believe it because there were 25 pages of comments on the subject with only a few good comments So naturally I had to give a good comment, plus an added bonus I earned a little bit on that site for commenting on that particular post.

@Dena91 You're welcome. I love this site. I do not know how that it even come about that we were unfriendly because from my first discussion everyone welcomed me and I have never had any problems here. Some just want everything handed to them with little to no effort.What really got me was the mention of 2 names saying that they tried to run the site and if you could get around them or along with them you'd be okay and you could only make money on here if you had alot of friends on here. Because you got no response to your discussions no matter how much you interacted unless you had friends here. I simply told them that was untrue. If you were friendly, interacted, and wrote good quality discussions you'd be fine!

@sishy7 I do not know. I am going to try to check into it where it is on one of my active paid forum posting sites. I know some of the ones who commented said they had active accounts but they just never used them. The few good comments there were did come from active users I have saw on here.

@Kandae11 I do too! Exactly, we all make mistakes if we were perfect it would be a dull boring world, but what they were saying was totally uncalled for!

@Mariely First off welcome to myLot! I am glad you are enjoying it here. I enjoy it here too. That's what made me so mad when I read that post on that site. Yes the people here are very nice. We try to help each other out and for the most part every one here that I have chatted with has been super friendly.

@Mariely No, you are fine! Comments can be short. Just make sure your discussions are atleast one paragraph.

I think its a very common thing, its very hard to get honest and clear comment out of someone online some people wouldn't know how to use it right and would give a bad comment or expected something to be easier but hopefully that would change.

@ara299 That is very true since some of those that were actively in this discussion at the time had never been here and others just checked it out but never wrote faithfully here. But what angered me was some making the false statements were writers that write here all the time and are still here. But it is pretty much taken care of now after I wrote this discussion a few of the members here joined me on that site and we straightened it pretty much out.
