i have create new discussion last night and having a good flow of discussion but doesnt take too long when someone commented me that my topic was a poll type of question and can be answered with just two or three words but i think that person doesnt analyze my topic very well but focus only on the subject not the discussion details

I have not been very active in creating discussions so I haven't received any comments regarding the poll type question however, I have received several notifications that my replies were deleted because the discussion under it was also deleted. There was this one discussion that I wholeheartedly joined which was deleted because it was more like a comparison between the two presidents of our country, the incumbent and the previous. The discussion was really something because each had their own political opinions and comments. I am not sure of the reasons it was deleted whether it was considered as a poll type or due to its being political in nature. However, it was good thread where most of us were given a chance to vent our disappointment on how the country is being run.

I don't there is anything wrong with political discussions. They are open here. Maybe the people discussing were getting a bit too hot headed that's why it was deleted.

Yes, I do received such comment. Don't feel sad, some members are really generous to help and guide if we ever violated any rules. So, if your topic is like poll (which is a guideline violation) then accept it and learn from it. I am here for more than 3 years but sometimes I didn't realize that my discussion violates rule (duh) And I just took it lightly when someone reminded me...it's fine and thankful too.

Oh yes dear! A friend commented to my post subject: "Do you have a recipe for prawn to share?" that it's against MyLot guidelines to post recipes but instead to post the recipe alone, I got comments there about the cooking, the taste and the experience. My post was still here... not deleted! But if will be deleted, no big deal! As I learned some lesson. Cheers leinrix! Have fun MyLotting!

To be honest I don't know. I only get messages that my answer is deleted because the discussion it was under is deleted. But I don't know if only mylot can delete a discussion or also the writer can. I gave up to find out why or how. If other mylotters can comment how or what I can understand why so many is deleted.. although I still don't understand how come so many subjects are exactly the same.

I am guessing that if it was repeat type of question then I can understand how some might think of it as a poll. I'm not sure what qualifies as a poll questions sometimes, yet either. I'm too new, but will try to get the hang of it all.
