i am a new user here in myLot, and I really enjoy posting new discussions and replying for posted ones. This is a way of expressing myself because I became a loner lately. However, I sometimes give time to unwind by going out with my family and some selective friends. For a newbie, do you think 3 hours is good for spending time here in myLot? Earning is not my primary reason why i joined the club, what matters to me is your opinion and some useful discussions for my everyday life. How about you, what are your reasons in staying here in myLot?

I have been here for barely a week and didn't get to post much, actually a total of 28, yet it gained me a decent $0.51! Mylot gives value to quality responses - and based on my observation the responses should contain your honest response with a contribution to the cerebral level - not just the plain "i agree, that's funny...etc." It certainly will make mylot a worthile experience to everyone if we'll just try to extend help to all - in terms of opinion, which may be varied, respect is important and a contribution in terms of a sound advice. If you look at mylot as a business opportunity and type away with blank blabbers, it will not work that way. :)

At the beginning, when I learned about myLot, I would stay for hours here. Now I come to visit for half an hour everyday, though sometimes I stay longer. I don't think earning money is my primary reason, but I like to have some dollars in my Paypal account.

3 hours is absolutely fine. mylot is definitely more than just the money so I'm sure this will do you good and cheer you up. I spend almost the whole day since I like it here, I enjoy the discussions and interacting with friends. We tend to build up a good rapport over time.

I have no compulsions on the time i contribute to my lot. It largely depends on the availability of time. Recently i was not responding to any discussions as my daughter was having her exams and i was busy helping her in preparing for the same. Now i am contributing around 2 hours daily.

I think it is good that you do go out and socialise even though you have become a bit of a loner. I spend a lot of time online and I can't see the harm in doing so as long as it not at the expense of going out and seeing 'real' people, I think being here is preferable to just watching TV lets say. However you do have to be aware of basic health and safety when you spend long periods of time on the computer, get up and take short breaks every half hour to an hour and every few minutes be sure to look away from the computer screen. It is so bad for your eyes tht if you work on computers as your job in england you employer has to pay for your eye tests.
I enjoy being here as it is so interesting reading and being involved in so many varied discussions and I would also like to make all my income online so this is a great way to make a little extra at the same time.

i think 3 hours are enough. You have time to surf in MyLot, join some discussions do yand at the same time you can be with your friends and your familly. You are right. You are not here to earn money and become rich. The main reason should be to talk with people all over the world and discuss about several topics.

I typically spend about 2-3 hours on mylot a day. Not continuosly but throughout the day. I have other forums that I post to and need a little different scenery every now and then. I haven't been on mylot very long either and at the beginning I was determined to get my posts up but I was spending too much time on it and getting tired. Then I realized that I'm going to make the money either way but I figured I need patience and I shouldn't be focusing on that. Now I come here for some good conversation and to give some advice hopefully.

I think it'll be enough.. But if you'll enjoy the thing you're already doing, I think you'll be able to forget how long the time has gone passed by without noticing it.. hehe I've experience that quite often, like right now I'm supposed to sleep but I'm enjoying replying.
I think one of my reasons that I will be staying here since I'm still new is to share to other people my thoughts.. I also wanted to learn things from different people around the world..

I am new as well as this is only my second day. I think I will probably spend a couple of hours on here a day because I have a lot of other work that I do online and there is just not enough hours in the day to get everything accomplished. I think that if I had more time I would be on here more because this seems like a fun place to meet people and I think you can learn a lot of info from peoples opinion.

Well Hi and welcome to Mylot, when I first start coming on here I was on here forever but in time it starts getting boring so now i am only on here once and awhile. I really enjoy posting and getting paid for it. Well good luck and I wish you success.

I spend only about an hour on myLot everyday but if I could stay more I really would. I take care of my toddler at home and and do some chores and errands, then I also have a little business on the side to take care of. Its nice to be at myLot because I learn a lot of things, get advises, and most people here are kind and very helpful.

I am working in a call center company with a night shift schedule as a system operator. My job is not really boring and I only receive few calls a day, so basically when my phone is silent, I got my fingers on my keyboards, enjoying mylotting..but when it rings, i gotta pause a bit and answer my calls, then go back to mylot again..lol
it's great that am having this stuff where I can divert my attention especially during lean hours where I got no calls and the time seems to run pretty slow. Mylot is really fun and I can spend even the whole day facing my computer and posting here.

I spend like 2 to 3 hours a day on here. I like the discussions and it is more constructive than laying on the couch.
