We added tasks a few months ago. Do you do the tasks? What do you like about them? What don't you like about them? What would you change? Have you created your own task? If so, was it easy to do or did you have trouble? What can...

xuara1 I just noticed something I figured I should add. I just looked at the tasks and noticed two of them, one that was created 6 months ago and one that was 7 months ago, both by seemingly inactive users. Most likely, if the users are inactive and the task is...

xuara1 To be honest, what I want changed about tasks mostly doesn't have to do with myLot, except one thing. I think there should be a rating restriction on them. I have noticed far too many tasks posted by people with a 0 rating, and I think that one should probably...

xuara1 I agree that it is like talking to a wall when she doesn't respond, especially being an admin, but I disagree that it wouldn't be possible for her to respond. to all responses. Yes she does get pages and pages of replies, but she only starts one discussion per...

Hey friends, This evening when I returned home from work, I saw a small cat waiting for me in front of my doorstep. She is very small and looks weak, and also very frightened. I decided to feed her some biscuits, which she ate...

xuara1 Well, rice and biscuits are not exactly good things to feed a cat, but I guess a little is better than nothing. You need to go and get some cat food to feed her. I recommend buying wet food if she is skinny and underfed. She will be able to eat and digest it...

When you are unhappy with McDonalds restaurant and or their service, calling 9-1-1 is not the answer. * Apparently, this was not evident to the stressed out mind of Florida woman Latreasa Goodman. She handed money to a McDonalds...

Do you feel lazy sometimes that you happen to post a one liner response to one of the discussions? or for the sake of just replying for the earning points? And when you happen to get reply a one liner response and did not answered...

xuara1 I do not post one liner responses! If I don't feel that I have more than one line to say to a discussion, I skip it and move on to the next. You don't really get credit for one liners anyway, and they don't add much to the discussion. So, whether you are...

xuara1 To be honest, this shouldn't have gotten a BR at all. It was a one-liner, and the myLot Dos and Donts say not to respond to a discussion if you don't have anything to say. Sometimes I respond when I can't really answer the question, but it should at least have...

xuara1 I'd say it depends. I usually only look at a discussion if the title catches my eye, whether written by a native English speaker or not. Once I've gone into it, I will read it, and if I have something to say, I will respond. In the case of discussions by...

Picture this... Scenario 1: You are walking down the street and you see a homeless person. You sympathise and empathise them and decide to give them some of your change. You'll think they'll be sort of grateful though instead,...

xuara1 It sounds to me like all of the scenarios are cocky, selfish, and unappreciative, however, I do think I might have a further explanation for scenario 3. Perhaps the person is homeless by choice. Perhaps they like to wander, and maybe have friends where they...

xuara1 No, I think you were exactly right! If I were going to give to the homeless, I'd give to a shelter, not an individual! I have sort of a similar story. In 2002, I went to a convention in Louisville, Kentucky. While there, I met a guy from North Dakota named...

xuara1 I don't have a cat now, but if I did I would NEVER EVER declaw it! I don't know about it causing them pain, but I do know that it throws off their balance as cats primarily use their claws and tails to balance with. Have you tried spraying something with...
