Yesterday's earning with the new payment criteria

United States
December 1, 2006 2:46pm CST
As we all know not everyone had been following the mylot standards/ guidelines when starting a discussion and/or posting a response. Several people were very pleased with mylot finally putting their foot down & cracking down on those stupid discussions & those who were scamming/ spamming on here. But with it just going into effect yesterday, whatever counts the # of posts you make was messing up. So I gave up after about 4-5 posts because my number went from 193 to 191 back to 193 then quit moving. Hopefully it's working again today. But even with those 4-5 posts I still made $0.39!!! Did anyone else have good outcomes like this?

I had the same problem as you but I carried on as it all sorted itself eventually at one stage I was on stand still and then the points where added to the amount of what I had replied to it always sorts itself out so never give up

It's nice see some intelligent discussions and be able to post something actually means something. The changes will most likely be for the better.

I think that mylot has taken a cool step by mapping earnings with the quality of posts.. will definately help mylot become a healthy discussion forum

Yes, I only had about 5 posts and made $0.42. Not bad. At least they are going through the discussions and trying to get rid of the nonsense ones.

I had the most awesome outcome!!! The most I have earned in one day!!! And it so encouages me to continue to doing just as I have been. I was getting really discouraged there for a while when others were earning more by posting short answers. But now, I am very happy with myLot's new and improved policy!!!

Congrats on your outcome! :) For awhile I was feeling discouraged as well, I had earned one penny (in a whole day) for several posts that met all the criteria mylot had specified. But now my posts are getting better earnings. :)

I am really happy with the changes so far. I only posted maybe 20 different comments last night and made $1.20, much better than when i started and made that much doing around a hundred posts. :)

I agree, for those who used to posts quailty posts even before this went into effect, we are seeing a much deserved increase in our earnings. However for those who were used to getting paid for "yes/no/ i don't know" they are paying now.

The first day they changed the algorithm I made $1.95. The next day I made over $3. Yesterday I made about $.60. I just about doubled my amount for the month in just those first 2 days, lol.

i nearly want to quit mylot as i felt that it's so unfair that those posting oneliner are earning more than me whereas i earned more than $1.50 a day but since they changed to the new policy, i earned so much...more than any other days since i've started in mylot! i'm so happy..just that i'm away on a whole day retreat since friday (1/12) until sunday (3/12) and i'm really looking forward to respond to more discussions then

This is good news for all of us. At least now all people will work hard to posts in their own way by not copying others deed. Its really worth and satisfactory when you get paid from your own creativity and effort without cheating!

The new earning algorithm is great, with it, in 20 post I have earned $1 yesterday, so it's a very good thing. And now we have a lot of more interesting discussions to answer but the majority are sad and a bit depressive. But now we have less spam and less discussions which we can answer with only a 'yes' or a 'no'.

I am seeing rally good results from my posts, and I am pleased. I have not been a member that long, and I always post long responses because I am a talkative person. I had some trouble two or three times with slow updates, but it seems to be accurate today.

who checks for the quality of a post? I like to think i answer appropriately but is there someone checking all the answers to determine how much they should earn?

Yes I had a great outcome and I've noticed today that the post count seems to be back to normal. For me my count number went back to normal this afternoon and I am really happy about it. I think these new changes will really make it easier for those who actually take the time to contribute make more money.
