My Broken English / myLot

Philippines

October 10, 2022 9:36am CST

This is a shoutout to the whole Mylot community. I wouldn't be where I am today without the people I've interacted with here. My English is still broken, but I would say I did improve a bit

At first, Mylot was just an avenue for me to earn money online, but after a few interactions with the community I saw Mylot as an opportunity to learn and improve my English, that was about 13 years ago (my profile says so

) I may be on and off in here, but I always come back. I learned a lot and gained a lot by interacting with all of you. Thank you for opening your doors to me. If I hijacked your discussions, before, always remember that I only learned that from DE and the gang

Trivia: When I joined Mylot, there was no edit button. So when you post something without proofreading then you're in for a lot of misunderstanding

I haven't been on myLot long enough for anyone to have learned anything from me!

I've never heard of "hijacking" in the context of conversations before. Real conversations don't stay on one topic forever and ever...

@DaddyEvil I think you should be awake by now. I've given you enough time to rest

@hexeduser22 The problem you'll run into there is that I'm asleep now.

I love reading and watching English movies. Learning for me is faster when practiced.

Hello bastart I am here for the last 12 years but never met you on this site.

Yes, I also have learned a lot from this site. I dont write on any site because I can't write in good English. I didn't only learn but have made lots of friends here in these years.

I am addicted to the site as I cannot sleep till I log in here at least once a day and see what's going on.

BTW many of us learned from @daddyevil

I feel you. I can let this site go. I have to be honest though, I stopped visiting too when Mylot decided to stop paying for a while, back then. I think I may have interacted with you before, but only for a few times, then I just disappeared without notice

I believe I can say unconditionally that @DaddyEvil has never met any of you before... He is sweet, innocent and young.

You have been in myLot many more years than I did. I joined a little more than 7 years ago and I still enjoy being here.

You're much more of a veteran here than I am

I feel like you're one of my gurus here. I tend to always find your discussions and topics when I log in

@sol_cee @hexeduser22 I'm sorry, this site is for people using English only. Can you please translate what you've written here so English speaking people can read it? Thank you for your consideration.

Nice to see you here again. Well, now a days some lady would pm me and remind me of the words I missed

It's crazy how this site survive all these years. I wish they'd stay for another decade at least. A lot for me here has happened since 2008. I think we got more mature people now and less trolls.

I come here often to enjoy my time - a part of my routine. I express myself as best as I can. English is not my mother tongue anyway but I am comfortable with it.
