If you don't like it, don't read it

Surely the last word is with the admin who deletes the posts that get reported? I would have thought that if the report system is being abused then MyLot would also be aware of this and would take some sort of action if a user is targetting a certain other user or users. I also know of users that have had their discussions put back after deletion had taken place.

Hi Chimes, That is the last thing that would even enter my head, to report a discussion just because it is not to my liking. I could properly count on one hand the number of discussions, that I have reported and that was for posting referral links. I didn't even report those discussion right away, I gave a bit of friendly advice to the users that is was against the guidelines but they would not listen so then I reported it. I have read a few discussions that I was not a fan of but I would not even rate them negatively just because I didn't like them. I have heard a lot of talk about lots of stuff being deleted recently and it is a shame if some of those deletions were not breaking any rules, after all when it happens, it hurts us all.

T,L,C, as easy as 1,2,3.......... (Every time I see your username I think of the song "ABC" by Jackson 5 for some reason!) You sing it loud 'cos I couldn't agree more. If someone's trigger happy, go join a shooting club or sign up for the LAPD! We all owe it to this site to be vigilant and help stamp out cheaters, plagiarists and the like, but people need to be realistic about what they're reporting and why, jeez! The fact that a lot of the discussions being deleted have been started by long term members just goes to show how childish and ridiculous some people can be, because the discussion starters KNOW what's what here. Anyone reading this that's a troublemaker, get over yourselves and go find a new hobby like playing Russian Roulette in your basement or something.

Wow! People do that kind of thing?

Thanks for highlighting this. There are lots of us around here enjoying discussions and whatnot and it will be totally awesome to have a more pleasant stay here in mylot and the feel too. I have the concept that if I don't like a discussion, I will not answer too, rather than just going on rounds rating - all the way. I prefer to give people chances first, and then see how it goes from there.

*standing ovation!* Preach it TL!!!!!!!!!

We can only wish that people are reading guidelines and play with the rules. Hope some can read also your post and think twice. We are here for fun, it is so easy to avoid discussions that we don't like....

Thanks for saying this!! I totally agree with you on this one. I'm not sure what possesses people to go to something they already don't like and then bash it all to heck, or to attack someone because they don't like the user. The only time I reported someone was for being a troll.... someone who stole my avatars and went around typing 'poop' in every discussion lol. It wasn't long before they were removed from the mylot community, the same will happen to other trolls or people who believe they can continue to come here and be a jerk and get away with it. Also, it should be said that people who do that will NOT make any money. This isn't a get rich quick place, but it's fun if you use it the way it is intended. It's a very nice small source of income, and they are consistent, I've never had a problem.

A freakin MEN! it amazes me how stupid and cruel people are.. and nothing irritates me more than people that are complaining about content on mylot that they read when they had no interest in the first place!!

YAAAA MAN, YOU ROCK!!!To all those who feel or because of this, we give a to you. Ya we do spend a lot of time and energy for those discussions and responses we post. If you don't like someone's jokes or if you are against laughing altogether or free thinking, then hey, IT AIN'T OTHERS PROBLEM. So don't make it their's... Ya, and I'd like to repeat TL's words, "If you are a Troll.... get a life, you aren't gaining anything by being a jerk."

i dont understand why some people find this concept difficult to grasp I think its rather common sense really if you dont like something then stay away from it

I was confused, i never thought there are problems like this here in mylot. I mean we really dont know each other, we were world apart, so how can we get too serious about other comments/duscussion whether its negative or positive. I dont know if i get your discussion correctly.

Mostly the violation occurs on make extra money interest segment. Mostly new users who haven't know the guidelines here made those violations. I think it's unfair for them if someone reporting it without prior notice them about the guidelines. But if their violation persist, then a report is make sense. In my opinion, here in mylot we should helping each other to be a good mylotter, not to attacking each other. Have a nice day and happy mylotting.

Oh they love to ruin other's lives, hardwork and morale... I'm not sure where they are coming from and I hope their PC's hang until they can't even use it anymore. Be very careful in choosing friends coz they might be the one looking out at your profile and stalking your newly posted discussions... I think its also time for me to clean mine... lol...

Yeah, I don't understand why they report discussions they don't approve of. I mean, just leave it. And why does mylot delete the whole discussion and just delete the response that's violating the rules. I still don't get it.

With as many different topics that are discussed on mylot everyone will eventually come across a topic that they don't like. That's a given. Some people just don't get it I guess and get offended pretty easily when they come across a topic that they don't like and when they do they act immature and start reporting everything. You would hope that everyone here could just act like adults but I guess not.

I agree with MYKL9999, how can i say "it sucks and leave it" if i don't even see it yet.but what's the point i don't report people, just leave it as it is and let some troll do that job. you know the other night i talked with greeneagle24 who got suspended. asked about mylot and his friends. i told him jokingly that "they forgot about you". and he said "time flies by" "when i get back, il be a real good boy", i just can't stop laughing. but i must admit, trolls are just leached in this site because the can't send their anger directly so they would just sneak in and choose their target to annoy and Delete.

A good suggestion, I replied to the discussion that I like. If don't then go to other discussion. Would you know if someone copied your discussion?

I have read the guidelines and always try to follow them. But now a days my replies count is decreasing every day and the amount of decrease is not tell. Every day 5-10 of my replies are getting deleted. I am not sure but I think a group of people may working against me and they are reporting my responses which are not violating the rules. I don't know whether the admin finally deletes the replies or it is an automatic system but I am suffering for it. I think other people should not do this to me. Here we all are earning and enjoying the site. I don't understand what is the motives of those people who are working against me. It will not help them in either way so why the are doing this. I feel so bad.

Personally, my time is just too valuable to be reading material from people I don't value their opionion. I am the first one to admit to liking a good "fight", hopefully learning something in the process. Even if you disagree, there is value in diversity. Every one is entitled to their opinion and say, however; that dosn't mean you have to read it. Why waste your time saying something bad,(if you can't say something good don't say anything at all), unless ofcoarse it's cantrary to myLot standards. There's enough valuable discussions on the site that you don't have to go looking for trouble or stirring the pot.
