Feeling A Little Upset Today

Hiya myLotters! Well, today is not a very good day for me. I feel a little bad but take this opportunity to express my feelings. Last night (Philippine Time), I received a notification from myLot that one of my started discussion was deleted. It talks about my gratitude to the site, a sort of tribute. What I could not understand, I have 5 more posts earlier that were not removed and all those posts have all the same thoughts or something, paying tribute to the site. They all have links to my YouTube videos. Those five posts are actually preview of the final video, "myLot The Movie". The final video/posts for the tribute ironical got removed. Anyway, I am just sharing you how I feel today. Thanks for reading.

It could be that you had possibly posted something inside the discussion that is nto allowed and it was not the fact of what the general discussion was about. Like stated above you can always go to Admin about this.

hello neil, Cheer up dear brother I wonder if mylot admin deletion of your topic also caused of YOUTUBE deletion? I opened my FB last night and thought of watching the mylot movie upon seeing the link in FB... but....says "user deleted the video" did you? or caused by mylot topic deletion?

I think I saw that one video you were talking about on your post. It really sucks when your discussion gets deleted. Maybe myLot had enough of the compliments that's why they deleted it.
@neildc (17239)
• Lapu-Lapu City, Philippines

you really think that could be the reason, too much compliments from the members? when everyone of us wants to thank mylot, they'll just ignore it or something?

i already sent an appeal to the admin and still waiting for Alex's response to my FR so I can directly contact him through PM.

I really don't know. Well, they might have made a mistake. One of my discussions were deleted before by accident. They can bring that back, actually. Contact the admin to get more details about it.

ohhhhhh this is really bad but friend this situation is also faced by me I dont know what is the reason. I am not posting any link but mylot tell your answer is wrong some time says your question is wrong. I think I asked you it is valid you say yes but my one USA friends says me no so this may be the reason to delete your posts. But I feel a good response received you but yes I get one message and delete my answer and on that write youtube video it means all persons answer also deleted which is related to your posts. I think not confirm.

but the good news is, my discussion is now back after Alex the admin reviewed it through my request. he even wondered how it was deleted since he can't see much of a violation on it.

if a post/question is deleted, everything will also be deleted, including the responses and comments. everyone who responded to that post will lose a point and their earnings will go down too.
• India
18 Mar 11
yes I think this is true because at least i observe my earning is less but I am also a new user for mylot so sometime I cant understand the rules

Hi Gerty and neildc.. I sometimes don't understand how admin decides. =( Sometimes they delete post that was 5 days ago after all the responses and comments.

hi belinda. mylot even delete older than a year or so, as long as they see them violating the rules and deem for removal.

hi neildc I found that out too and was floored as to why it was deleted is it becauser Mylot has some rule against praising her or blowing our minds on how great she is? I read and reread the rules and and I cou ld not find the connection. Well at least some of us got to see the video and I tried to tellyou how greatit was but my response was also deleted.. sorry this happened to you.

Hi Patsie. I also reviewed the rules and found nothing. I also feel sorry that your response was deleted. Anyway, thanks a lot for watching the video and for the very nice comment to that. And also for the great support all throughout.

Hi neil.. I think you need to contact administration for the proper reason... they will give you the answer, i hope. By the way... i have not received any notification from mylot for last 12 days... i am really suffering for this problem. Have a nice day.

i have already contacted them, Shiby. and i am still waiting, if they will give me an answer. i guess, this is another glitch on the system. not everything, i guess, is coming in to my inbox too.

That's good news neil, it's nice to know that admin posted it back since that means all your hardwork did not go to waste. Reminds me of a discussion that i posted which got deleted as well. The good thing is there's only one person who made a comment. I think it's almost the same as your case. I read an article in the internet which i find very interesting and i thought fellow members might want to know. So i copied it, but i made sure that i included where i got the article from. Unfortunately the discussion got deleted since it said it's flagiarized. I'm not really sure if it's flagiarism as long as you give credit to who and where you got the article from. But then it was deleted. I never asked the admin why because i thought that's a waste of time but with your case, at least i know now that i can raised my concern and admin will reconsider.

this is actually not the first time i made an appeal to admin. and i am very happy that i made it again, to win my case.

Hello neil, I'm sorry about that.They might think its something about the links you have posted together with your discussion which was not reviewed carefully. Anyway don't feel upset you have a lot of topics anyway that brought a lot of responses. I do have some been removed before and I just let them decide.lol. Have a nice day..Cheer up!!!

Hi Sean. how are you doing? i am not sure where did i go wrong on that post. i know i am prepared for anything to happen with my posts but what really shocked me is, i know i did my best for that video so i wanted more mylotters to see it. people even said, i should be commented by mylot but that doesn't really matter. all i want is to share my feelings on that video.

hi neidc, I can understand what you felt i also felt upset last year when admin decided to delete my discussion i find it unfair because it's not a pool question even myles and jaiho said it maybe because i am discussing about my favorites thats why they deleted it one of the reason why i became active last year until this year. But i am trying to be active here as much as possible. happy mylotting'

Personally this is just something to be expected here from time to time, and you just need to remember to not take it so personal and let it bother you. Maybe someone just felt the post was not appropriate or too much like a post you or someone else might have already started as well. All I can say is things happen and you learn from them hoping for the Best and move on.

i agree to the point that this is something to be expected here from time to time, i really know about that and i am prepared about it too. the thing is, i made that movie or video clip to show my appreciation to mylot and all of you, my friends. but there is nowhere else that i can say about that for all of you to know except to start the discussion.

So sorry to hear that your discussion got deleted…even I cant understand this. Previously, I too have sang paeans to this site, praised it for having healthy discussions and good people, honest in payment etc etc. I’ve encouraged newbies to continue here and openly proclaimed my love for this site. None of those responses were deleted… is this something new that they have started deleting discussions in praise of mylot?
@neildc (17239)

one more reason i have a doubt if my discussion really violates the rule. mylot guidelines even suggested: "Feel free to express your happiness with the myLot community. We love hearing how much you like myLot."

None of us like to loose a discussion, especially if it is a popular one, but it happens to all of us and all we can do is keep on posting. Reread the rules and see if you can spot what broke the rules. Blessings PS I just lost one also.

sorry to hear you lost one too. well, as they say, this is mylot, the wonderful mylot. i reread the rules but still can't see which one i broke.

i know its disappointing, but cant help it. even for me from two days about 4-5 discussions were deleted where i have responded to, so i was little upset and i was just thinking that my time was wasted and my effort of reading and commenting on the discussion was a waste, and if was knowing it is getting deleted i would have not responded at all.

i have been here for almost 4 years and i thought i have read and understood the rules, i follow the rules. what is upsetting for me is that, i spent a lot of time and effort to make that video so i can share it to everybody. and for 4 years, seldom that my answer to questions got deleted, and this is the first time my own answer is removed.
