I post Discussions Twice and, They were both deleted. Why I don't know, I didn't receive an Email stating why was my Discussion was deleted. As some of Mylot Friends already know I post a discussion talking about harmless Mylot Goals here on Mylot. Hearing everyone opinions asking them what are there goals etc. Now I had nearly 30 post. Now they are all gone. That's the Reason why Im scared to post anything on here maybe a response or whatever but a Discussion Forget it. This will might get deleted as well I don't know why. It's not Im not having a discussion. Im just scared to Post now I feel like I have Limits On here. (MYLOT) I enjoy being here, now.. I Don't Know Sorry Mylot For What Ever I have Done. :/

The rules have been made stricter now. I do think you should write to myLot and say "if anyone starts a post on myLot and it is deleted, could you tell them why?" then they might refer you to paragraph two second sentence, etc. or that rule you broke. I had a couple of my responses deleted, and it was easy for me to find out why one of them, although with yours, I had a bit of difficulty unless you were making people think that you were not here for the fun. I remember a book I read a while back, about doing what you love, etc. etc. and I find that I get more done, if love is the major factor. Maybe you have to be more general in discussing goals and make them refer to yourself. I know I do not like discussions when someone says "you have to stop drinking coffee or your ears will fall off,etc." Of course, I am being fastidious.

I would be a little upset if perhaps writing were a bit hard for me, but mostly it would be that I have a schedule in which I do the mylot (morning) and if I get the question that I answered deleted and consequently get my answer, etc. then I feel now here I have to put that time I spent writing that response in the evening since in the afternoon I usually do something else like walk. And it also cuts down on my novel writing time. Then there are those who use the internet for=well I will not say as it is probably against guidelines. Oh it could be something like my not able to write Mr. Cheney's first name with substituting asterisks or numbers so that it would not look like a swear word. Somethings you cannot discuss on mylot that is something that newcomers think of instead of the writing part. Trouble is although with me I am interested in other things, with many it us what you cannot discuss. I get the idea that myLot does not want its members to think that there is a contest going on here. (except in the fun stuff section of course.)

suspenseful you seem to be a very experienced member of mylot. You have seen mylot pass through many different phases and members getting used to the new rules. I have not yet faced any such problem. I hardly start any discussion these days. The only thing I do now is comment/respond to some exciting discussions. AAlso,I am very choosy about the discussions which I respond to. They are mostly never deleted. So, I am lucky I dont have to face the bad side of mylot

I think you have nothing to scared to post here. If you have previous bad experience, it is normal, and a lesson to learn. All users here I guess did the same even me. Be familliarize with TOS. Your statement should be beyond guidelines. Top subject I have notice often times deleted are those with promoting link or promoting other site. Be carefull next time. Happy mylotting! Good luck!

For you I woll read it again to see the new updated rules on here and i think tmot should be a little easy on people. How are we suppose to gather more referrals if three discussions are getting deleted because they don't know better. Because honestly I will say 85% or more people don't real the guidelines. And etc

You are correct that most people will not read the guidelines when they join. I was guilty of this myself, and I had a few discussion canned before I finally broke down and read them myself.

Don't be scared, and you're not in outer limits. Everyone gets discussions deleted in the beginning and sometimes later on too. I've had a few deleted at first even tho I had read the guidelines. I don't know what your posts said so I can't help, but, I had to read the rules and guidelines again cause there are some things that you discuss that you don't realize aren't allowed. Wish you the best.

I know that I have been here for 3 years but in a week time or less two or more of my discussions got deleted and I got no reason why or anything I went to go check on my email come to find out I got nothing. I was talking about whay er your goals on here on mylot to improve in any topic. Not only in earnings, but in referrals, Discussions, English, Friends, Post, Star Rep, and more. Then it got deleted so Now IM upset and I think IM just going to give up on here after 3 years this is just getting too much out of hand. I think mylot is being to strict and they will probably deleted this discussion as well. All I did was right good things about them. Not only that but help other mylotters out in there problems outside discussion but in MSG,PM I comment every single response and there were nearly 30 responses and its GONE. ALL OF IT

jUST DON'T GIVE UP. jUST START ANOTHER POST AND DON'T DWELL ON THIS. YOU KNOW YOU CAN GET IN TOUGH WITH ADMIN AND FIND OUT. SOMETIMES SOMEONE WILL REPORT SOMETHING THEY KNOW IS NOT ALLOWED. IT HURTS YOUR FEELINGS AND AGGRAVATES, BUT IT HAPPENED TO ME TOO. I MISUUNDERSTOOD A DISCUSSION ONCE AND RESPONDED IN A VERY BAD WAY AND JUST WANTED TO GIVE UP, SO I STAYED AWAY FOR A FEW MONTHS. NOW I'M OK AND HAVE LOST MONEY. I SHOULD HAVE KEPT ON INSTEAD OF GIVING UP FOR A WHILE. JUST HANG IN THERE. YOU'RE DOING VERY WELL.

See it's okay if it's the last few month but mines has been about 2-3 in the last two weeks of this month and ever since I don't know i thin they are just picking on me that's how I feel. I don't know what to do I feel like every time i post a discussion it will get delet e asap. It's not like I'm not saying bad things or anything like that. I just want my discussion back up I know I earn a lot from it and I think it would be fair if I got my earnings and post back.

think back and see wether your previous deleted discussions had anything in common,were you asking about income,or asking what's the max you can earn on here,if so that's probably why it got deleted,if your discussions had anything in common then stay away from writing discussions about that subject in the future

There may be reasons why your posts were deleted. Like for example, your post may not have violations like referral links, but someone has already post a similar topic several hundred years ago here in MyLot! Unfortunately, it's a duplicate topic!

Thatshard to believe. A duplicate discussion like mines please yeah right some discussion on hee have questions that are ask like 10 or more times in the year and they don't get deleted and my discussion was very detail extremely detail that 8 will find it very hard to believe some did something simile or the same awhile ago plus if has been a long time it shouldn't matter much. Things happen more then once just a in a real person life. Things happen more then once sometimes.

What about the idea of MyLot is cheating their members, deleting a topic just for the purpose of cutting on cost they are paying their members? What if something like that is really happening here? Well, this is not yet proven... Just my thoughts...

Sorry for your loss and although I can totally understand your frustration, sometimes it just happens. We do not know why or how- and maybe sometimes it may be a mistake on mylots part for all we know. But I wouldn't get discouraged. I too have had a couple of my posts deleted when a mylotter startes a discussion that gets deleted...

It is more than likely that your discussions had violated the guidelines in some way, so they got deleted. I know it does get hard trying to come up with a discussion that won't get deleted, and it does happen. I haven't had that happen to me as of yet, but that being said, it doesn't mean that it never will. I know of one discussion where I got reported for posting it, but it never got deleted. If it had then I would have known what not to psst. I don't start all that many discussions myself as I prefer to post responses, mainly because I can't think of decent topics to post at times. I am not afraid of getting any deleted though, as it happens a lot in here. I just pretty much know what not to talk about so it doesn't happen. Just hand in there, and not worry about it. Good luck to you and happy mylotting.

Until I get my reason why im just waiting because i hear mylot users getting meal saying the reason why there discussion got deleted and etc. But I didn't get one yet it has been hours of hours. And still nothing. I just want a reason and if it was a simple mistake then okay I am a forgiving person.

If you doubts about a discussion to poat here, the best thing to do is read the guidelines. Compare the guidelines to your discussion. If everything looks good to you, then don't be afraid to post. You just find some interesting responses to come your way. Good luck and keep posting!

Done that and I looked over it twice inking humm what did I break on that guideline list and nothing was there and i don't see how I Brooke anything if i was just talking about goals on mylot simple harmless goals about what do you wish to improve on on mylot nothing bad. Just wanted to know and like to hear what people are interested in and there goals on here and if they are similar to mine.s

Hi, payout! I just experienced once a month ago. I started a discussion about the frequency of having bath and got more than 50 response under it. I commented more than 30 among the responses. But it was deleted, the reason was "poll or game discussion"... What is 'OR'? Everything vanished! My earning decreased $0.16 when myLot recalculated it. So sad and frustrating!

Did you make it seem like a game.

@sweetloveforeve That was the discussion with the most responses among all my discussions till now. I'm so frustrated when I saw it vanished. @payout As you said, "like", our discussions are deleted only because of the subjective judgment of admins. If you know some Chinese history, you might heard Yue Fei, a famous general of Song Dynasty, was framed and murdered by a famous treacherous court official called Qin Hui. And his criminal charge was "probably have conspiracy to rebel".

Posting duplicate discussions is against the rules, but I think the original should be able to remain while they should have the right do delete the second one. I am sure many people post duplicate discussions over time because they forgot they already posted it. It is just safest to try to abide by the rules as much as possible.

I did not see the discussion, so I am using the comment that you gave to responder (1) to form an opinion. Based on your comment it seems that the discussion infringes on the 'no real discussion'. Anyone can make a short and simple response. For example a member can say 'I am here for the friendship'. Hardly a discussion, is it not? You also mentioned about star reputation. I think this is a grey area, and it leans towards certain milestones to reach for. All the best in your future endeavours.

Hon do not be afraid, you do what you do best within the guidelines and always hope for he best. There are so many new members swarming by the day who are not aware of the guidelines and rules and have a tendency to rate negative only because you did not agree with them. These members clearly do not stick around long enough, but yet leave a foul feeling to those afflicted. So if you get a deletion with no explanation can you put in a support question for explanation??

I guess this ilk be the last topic I will post on mylot since I have to start posting in other topics because it is sort of a high risk posting about something about mylot if it's on the topic of mylot. I guess i will try other discussions which will be hard because I love mylot on here and know a lot and I like talking about mylot and stuff about my lot. How good mylot is welcoming new comers but I guess this ends today hopefully this discussion won't get deleted
