Can you comfortably say that you understand everything about mylot?

I've been mylotting since new year and I still can't comfortably say I understand everything. I do go back to the rules from time to time and I still don't know every detail of how mylot works especially when it comes to computation of earnings.

i had been here for 6 months and i can say that somehow, i am so familiar with the rules and regulations. and i do lead the new alerts over and over again so i can be familiar with the new added rules. but i say, i always still go back to the rules and FAQs pages of mylot. it's always better to have everything refreshed than get deductions just because i did something wrong.
there's no need to try and computer the earnings. actually, it's alsl in the guidelines not to try to. let me quote it for you...
"Post anything that inaccurately explains the myLot earnings algorithm. Our myLot mathematicians have worked long and hard on our elaborate payment system and we wouldn’t want any of our users to make them feel inadequate by breaking their algorithm in minutes."
source link: http://www.mylot.com/o/guidelines.aspx
so, mylot administrators want to keep it private. so, i just go on and respect the way they want to keep it in private.

Yes, thank you. I don't actually compute, I just sort of guess how it works everytime I check my earnings, it's only a matter of curiousity for me and I must say that it's really an elaborate system. Mylot has my full confidence when it comes to this and I don't question them.

haha! just like you, i do have times to guess, too. it's kinda exciting actually. we don't know how much we did get that day until we get to have our earnings updated. just like you, i don't computer as well. but guessing is fun and exciting!

Mylot is surely paying but how they calculate the payment for each posting is their secret and we don't exactly know.
However, there are things we know that will never get paid like 2 or 3 worded responses, yes or no topics, survey type questions and any other violations. If you posted very short answers this will not be paid so let us avoid doing it. Read the do's and dont's of mylot rules, you will see it for yourself. We can earn a lot here, if we follow the rules. Cheers.

Hi, Oh I think mylot are a law unto themselves sometimes although I have read the rules sometimes you forget them. I think the one thing that is very misunderstood and no one can work out is payments and what you earn, it just doesn't make sense somedays as you can earn $2 one day and you seem to do the exact same amount the next day and only earn a few cents! It's fun learning though!

I don't know most of the stuff in mylot.I joined only a week ago. I don't know why they don't have a clear policy to determine the earnings.It would make life easier for everyone.The number of post having ridiculous discussions will surely disappear if people know that they won't be getting any money by answering or posting them.

I think I have a fair understanding of the rules and how Mylot works but I can't challenge to be questioned on everything associated with Mylot.I've learned the things I wanted to from the guidelines and faq.If I am stuck somewhere or want clarifications then I would start a discussion and seek help.Perhaps I won't try to understand everything as ,I feel,the algorithm is likely to undergo modifications and additions from time to time.As long as I have a good overall experience mylotting ,I am a happy camper.
