I came across several topics today that made absolutely no sense to me today. I tried really hard to be patient, and take my time to understand them. However, there was no sense to be made of it. I came across one that just said "Girl" what about it? I don't get it! At least add some words to it so we can have an idea of what you are talking about. Please. Anyone else come across this, or am I the only one having problems with it? Thanks for the response.

There is no assuming...I honestly don't get it. As I stated in the beginning of the discussion. There was one I came across the other day that was labeled "girl" there was no other words or description at all. What about "girl"? Do you understand what I am talking about now? Thanks for responding.

I hate discussions like that! They really annoy me, and I'm kind of sad that some of the discussions are so pointless, as well as some of the comments on mosts discussion.

just report them as they are breaking the rules
if they get their post removed then they get less money
if they get banned then they get no money
either way non-breakers end up with more money
it IS worth reporting all the idiots and rule breakers
somethimes i only make about 10 posts but report about 20 posts and make over 50 cents for that day

i agree there must be a format introduced for opening a discussions either with minimum and maximum number of words or else because there is a lot number of discussion ambigious not clear for every one

well its very simple you just have to write 2-3 lines about the words you understood in the topic and that will do....there is nothing like that you won't be paid....u will be paid but less as compared to good discussions

Until mylot decides to delete the discussion because it does not meet the guidelines. Then my ratings will lower and I will lose the earnings I got from it. No thanks! I'd rather respond where I know my hard work will be kept and rewarded. Thanks for responding.

You're not the only one, I promise!
Sometimes I can't understand what the hell someone is posting! Its like abbreviated even for a text message or spelled in "gangsta"

Except for those who are just out to make a penny and could care less, lots of mylot users are from other countries where English is not the native language. It is cool that they are excited about practicing English. Many illegal immigrants in our own country can't even speak English!
Anyway, the only downside is that some of the posts are difficult to read.

well, do you open the post already?? Or you only read the topic list??Sometimes they only want to make their topic look cool from the outside to invite more guest. Anyway, dont bother just because you dont understand it, skip it... And ones more, never reply any topic that you think it is junk, you'll be sorry ^^
