MylotReviews of mylot.com

myLot is unique Yes it pays. Reliable like that. But the constant technical issues and lackadaisical management is atrocious. It's a shame as it has much potential. There is an undercurrent ~ an apparent and significant amount of abuse going on inside the site also, that keeps new users from returning and seems to be constant and acceptable to the administration. Still, if it is your cup of tea, give it a go.

Mylot used to be a haven for so many people, but it is a shell of its former self now. First, the good: it does pay, and it pays on time. However, the pay has recently, one again, decreased. You can post quality discussions, and answer thoughtfully, yet you will still only earn pennies. Recently, the site has declined greatly, a lot of it because of the moderator, also known as Go Ask Alice. A couple of years ago, a Mylot user since basically the site began, was made moderator (he admitted he was the new moderator). He (yes, Alice is a he) has since allowed a couple abusive male Mylot members to continue to post, while banning the female members they harassed and abused. In addition, some of the more outspoken female members have started being banned as well. People are starting to leave voluntarily, and what was once a wonderful site is now a shadow of its former self. Yet, there are still good people on that site, and we need more of them. You can meet people from all over the globe who can turn into very good friends. The vast array of experience we all bring enriches everyone who makes Mylot their home. So, it is awful to realize someone is turning it into a playground for bullies, and has no intention of changing it back.
