People seem to come and go from this site. New people, old faces, some you never see again.

Hello Torunn,
Yes now when you are mentioning categories, I realize that they are no longer there.
I do recognize we used to tag posts back then as well, maybe they have made this change to increase the amount of "categories" without having to add actual categories. But here the challenge comes to peoples ability of spelling, if you spell your tagged word wrong, it is less likely to be found.

@Torunn Of course, I can easy imagine some people didn't think before selecting the category to poste in, which doesn't make it easier for us to search amongst the good quality discussions.
There are many options in the search tool, I should probably investigate it a bit further.

@Downwindz I read somewhere that they dropped the categories because people kept posting in the wrong one.
I think they made it easier to find older posts with interesting topics, searching for them is a bit more of hassle

It's been a long time then. It's almost the same but the payout is only @ $5 now compared to the $10 before.

I think it is an awesome change that they have halfed the amount needed to obtain payout. Even if getting paid for ones MyLot activities are just secondary.

Yeah, it is indeed almost a decade, and I still can't believe MyLot is healthy and thriving. But it is, which is amazing!

@Downwindz It’s very rare for a site to be around after all this time.

Indeed! Like almost 8 years ago... Feels like a lifetime even though it is closer to a decade.
