Three discussions disappeared right before my eyes!

im still not sure. i've definately seen the same thing going on and other strange happenings on mylot. its a good thing i like mylot so much

it might have a few reasons really. maybe you had something violating the tos of mylot in your responses and they chose to remove your responses, or maybe the discussion you responded was an illegal one and they removed the discussion with the responses in it. boh of these situations might be true. there's nothing to say after such a thing. It happened to me before, I had asked people if they like coke or pepsi more. I recieved 60 responses and then I couldn't find my discussion. I still don't understand what the wrong thing was about it. but still I'm happy with mylot at least they are legit and paying.

They were deleted because it violates mylot rules. So we need to careful to response discussions and we need to choice the carefully which is going to response or else we going to drop points.

Actually I am like you in that I have no idea whatsoever why some discussions are deleted and yet others are not. In general it would be because they are in violation of the myLot guidelines but that is not always the case from what I have seen. However it could be that someone has reported one lot of violations and so they are deleted but the other discussions are not reported or seen by the admin staff, so they get to stay. Most of the time I stay away from discussions which I believe are a violation of the guidelines but there have been times when I have seen my post number drop as well. Once or twice I have been expecting that to happen but that was because I made a response to a new member which I knew violated the guidelines. It would have been a fairly simple response to say they were not allowed such discussions and it could/would probably be deleted. As we do not really know how decisions are made which discussions get to stay and which go into the deep bin named delete, we really are only guessing. However I would suggest that it is different staff members checking different posts and in what really are borderline cases, one would allow it to stay and another would not. Now if I discussion I have responded to is deleted, I just go on with the next discussion.

Hi mummyofthree, don't be worried so much about this thing. It happens to everyone of us. Recently I had three discussions deleted about the birth of my nephew. I was really pissed off that discussions related to the birth of my nephew have been deleted. Some users have suggested that I have broke he mylot guidelines of discussing a personal milestone. Anyway if you do a search for the birth of a son or a relative you find a lot of posts about this topic. They still have not been deleted.

Ya i have also come across differnt type of situations as you have also seen and got..its the moderators who are active amongst us who do these things..they act as if they are our friends and delete the discussions..i hope they dont do these things since one of my best discussion was deleted even though i had not copied and it was there for over one week and got seventy hits..i suppose to cut costs they do these sort of things... Happy Mylotting

i had three points taken off my score also. oh well, just keep on trucking
