Well, I have had friends PM me about their online opportunity, and I have seen discussions that are blatantly promoting. Which do you approve of? I personally prefer that a discussion would be started, as it is much harder to retrieve PM messages, and they are more intrusive in my opinion. I have had lots of people who ask to be friends, so come and respond to my discussion! I got a free membership to a home entertainment company that will offer new release DVDs for LESS than Amazon. Members will also have access to video games, hardware and software at HUGE discounts. Free membership is limited until the launch, so I wanted to offer you guys at mylot first shot before you have to pay to belong. Earn money or just enjoy the discounts, you choose.

If I am interested in something, then I will check it out myself so I do not want to receive any pm's about opportunities that are available, particularly if it is from somebody who has maybe responded to only one or two of my discussions. Those people I feel are only here at myLot for the opportunity to promote their other interests rather than anything else.
One "friend" who sent me several emails with great earning opportunities (all different) had actually responded to 3 of my discussions but not one of them was of a serious nature. When I checked the profile I found that the person had literally hundreds of friends, and a very low rating. I suspected that this was one of those cases where myLot was being used simply to get more referrals to the other money making ventures.
At the same time there are a couple of friends who do PM me, but they do about a variety of things not just money making sites, so those ones do not worry me at all. I can deal with them easily. I have also asked a couple of people to PM me with details of sites but generally they are for someone else rather than myself. I spend enough hours online here at myLot and make enough to keep me happy and to afford the few extra things that we wouldn't otherwise have,
So, unless we have a close friendship which includes PM's about a variety of things, if you want my to join your site under your referral, then tell me through the proper medium, which is not clogging up my message box. At least that is my opinion on what should happen although of course many others might think differently to me.
Thanks for this information pookie, and I will have a little look later on. :)
