My mylot points dont increase even when I get a reply or post a good reply.

Has anyone else been facing this situation? The points are not increasing and this is a strong de motivator. When strict point systems are being increased to 500+ points, then atleast good answers and responses should be given an increase in the points. Recently I posted some topics and when I received replies I rated them positively and gave my comments back. Yet to my surprise no points increased. Can anyone explain this? It seems as if no credit is being given to discussions any more.

I've noticed the same issue with my own account today. I posted two discussions yesterday that were very good and had very good response. I also made sure to post responses to the responders and I'm still seeing the same number next to my name. I wonder with the new system if this is simply a fluke and will be resolved soon. I'm looking forward to seeing if there is an answer to this question myself.

You do not get points for responding to comments on the discussions that you created. You only get points for responding to other peoples topics and to one comment on the other persons topics. From what I have seen for a while now is that for the most part you will only get two points for responding to other peoples topics ( one your own comment and one for commenting on another comment of that persons topic? Sometimes I have gotten two points for one comment but not very often.

your points should increase when you respond to others discussions . when you receive responses for the started discussions , your points do not increase immeadiately . They take some time ... And some of the simple topics are being removed by Mylot staff . if we have posted in those topics , our points get decreased and we may not notice the actual increasing of the points . in case of any difficulty , pls contact Mylot administrating staff : http://www.mylot.com/o/contactus.aspx

Thanks for comment. I have noticed that my points have increased just by one point although i have posted a discussion and uploaded photo and replied to two people. Maybe it is taking time but it didi not use to take so much time earlier.

Sometimes the point increase is delayed. I've noticed that. Don't spend all your time focusing on your points. It takes a lot of discussions and comments to make any spending money here, so you best get busy.

I would think this must be an issue Mylot is dealing with at the moment. The only answer to the problem I've seen from another poster is where people respond to discussions that are later removed from the site because they're inappropriate. I'd be interested to hear whether your points increase as a result of this discussion, and response. If not, perhaps it's time we talked to the mylot people themselves.

I see your points have increased so maybe they are solving after some time delay.

well that is strange do you respond to others as this is when you will notice your points going up in mylot well I get mine for both so see how many you respond to and if your points go up as this is how mine go up everyday, and so does my money you have said you have posted some topics and you rated them but I do not see where you have responded to others so probably this is where you are going wrong, try it and see.

I too have noticed this. I respondes 18 times and never got credited for it till 3 days later. Maybe there are so many people joining nowe that it back up the Mylot system?

this has been happening to a lot of us, i think its part of the mylot clean up and adjustments they make when its coming up to payment time Dont worry about it its just part of the procedure, i lost 30 credit points the other night because some discussions i had answered had obviously been deleted. However my star rating also dropped to an 8 yesterday and that felt like a real kick in the teeth oh well good luck keep on posting

Frankly speaking, what I have realised is that the best approach is to make money by responding to others posts and also by posting more of images. The reason for my conclusion is that I had gone through some initial hard work of writing some very good articles. But they never got a response and have hence never earned a point for me. Instead, if I have made discussions that may have some public appeal like for some sports famous in my country of origin, i have got good responses. I do not make any vulgar and silly kind of discussions so have restricted myself to only response and nothing more. Yeah, make sure to comment to every response that you get for your post. Also rating helps!
