Richard That's just terrible. Maybe they have some kind of hidden meaning behind it? Although what it would be I haven't a clue. Or maybe they don't think the viewers are that stupid, could just be that they are that stupid ;)

Jokes and recipes not allowed in myLot

succeednow @succeednow (1633) • Singapore 31 Jul 16

I read in the guidelines that posting of jokes and recipes at myLot are not allowed. For recipes I can understand the reason why. Why would anyone be interested in boring recipes which can be found everywhere in the internet...

Richard I def think that jokes should be allowed, but I can understand their reasoning, It would be a copy and paste with unoriginal content frenzy. There would be so many discussions at an alarming rate sometimes I would imagine if people are just copying and pasting...

Holocaust Museum: Please stop playing Pokemon Go! here

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (120297) • United States 13 Jul 16

The Pokemon Go! craze is everywhere in the United States and, unfortunately, people don't have the grace, class, or common sense to know when NOT to play it. They have proven that by playing it in the Holocaust Museum in...

Richard I also had to download firefox for myLot. I always use Chrome but it lags up and freezes when I try to use myLot. Since using firefox everything works great with the myLot site and no more lag or freezing. Hopefully you have the same experience.
