I have been a member of ReviewStream for quite some time now, just right after I became a member of myLot when I was at the start of my quest of making money online. But this question only struck me lately, just wandering around the site.
How many myLot.com reviews?
Determining how many myLot.com reviews there are in ReviewStream isn't really easy the first time I tried it. When I searched for the keyword "myLot.com" in their search box, I was confronted with 282 results!
As you may have surmised, the problem is with the keyword. It took me three more keyword attempt before I came up with "item: myLot" which for me is the best one.
The Real Score
With this keyword, the Google Custom Search gave me 26 results, noting they "have omitted some entries very similar to the 26 already displayed."
Most of them are positive except for one who says myLot is a scam, of which I will talk about in my later post.
About ReviewStream

Good News!
Looks like the admin is listening to our messages after all. Here's a discussion started by vidhyavini when the admin answer one of her prayers. But note that she "just wanted to get my discussions deleted due to some personal problems and so they did it. It was not that those discussions didn't have any responses."
Hi everyone.
I just thought that its impossible to delete the discussions here. I wanted some of my discussions to be deleted badly. So I thought that I don't have any other way than to delete my account.
I started a discussion for that and I said that as I couldn't delete my discussions, I wanted to do this. I got a response asking to contact admin for this. I never thought that admin would help me with this.
But they did. I got a message saying that the discussions were deleted and they have asked me to contact them if necessary.
Did you people contact admin for any reasons?? Did they listen to your problems???
In the responses, sirrob had added another success story:
i have done it several times and so far everything has been great. the lat time i sent them a report was when someone responded into my discussion with a ref link and we all know that its a violation and i don't want my discussion to be deleted so i reported it. the next day, i found out that it was gone already and my discussion still gathered more responders. because of that i a make the same sort of discussion like this to let everyone know something.

Ever felt myLot would steel your money? They would, if you will not be active. Read on.
dustyland87 started this discussion about his experience of losing money from myLot:
Mylot stole all the money I'd been saving on this stupid thing. I don't post on here very often but I do have a referal under me who post quite often. So I should be getting money from their post and from the few that I post right? Wrong. I had almost $8 the last time I logged on, I log on today and I only have $1.68. So what the hell happen to the rest of my money? I don't even see the point of using a site that promises to pay you then takes the money back when you aren't looking. What kind of crap is that?
Fellow myLotters were quick in the reply and provided answers on the possible reason why this happened.

If you don't log-in within a 3 month period mylots will wipe out your balance ( I believe it's 3 months, but don't quote me on it) I first joined a year ago and made a little over a dollar here then my computer broke down and I got busy working all the time and it took me months to get my system fixed because I was always too busy to take it in and too tired to mess with it. So finally after 3 months I had my computer fixed and I came back to mylot and found that my account had a "0" balance . So from what I understand mylot will take your money or "0" your account if you are not active here.

Lessons learned? Be active, or at least don't be inactive for 3 months. And always visit the Guidelines and Terms.

I just want to share a quick post about my receipt of my myLot payout. You know I have made it a goal to make $25 before September ends. And as before, I have not achieved my goal.
But I am still happy that I made above $20 to compensate for not being able to reach payout last August.
Here's a screenshot of the payout:
How much is your payout this month?

Whenever I don't have something (or even I have something to do) I visit blogs of other myLotters. These are myLotters who talks about myLot in their blogs and are in my blog list in the sidebar. Here are the most interesting (at least for me).
Sydney Hazelton found a new paid to write site called Neowide. I am almost tempted to join this site but I don't think I will be joining it just now. I don't have that 25 ideas yet to make the $50 payout.
Jena Isle wrote a post about Helium, which is a legit paid to write site. I have been a member of this site for months now and I still haven't reached payout. I just wrote poems, that's why.
Greenleaf discovered a new way to make money from a blog with LinkShowOff. This blogger has a lot of RSS readers already. And I see posts about his blog's earnings already which show he is really making money.
Buzzmaker talks about Homepages Friends. I am also a member of this site but I not using the search engine anymore. I guess my Internet Explorer in which I use the search engine has been infected. I am not saying that the search engine infected it.
Ruth B. has gotten her first payment from a paid to blog site. I will have to check this out too.
