I had earned around $1.9 today morning, suddenly when i logged in after sometime i could see a slump in the earnings which dropped down to $1.2. Has it happened for you?

This can happen, I believe, when a discussion of yours or possibly one in which you had responded or commented in is deleted. The only person likely to be able to explain it for certain is @goaskalice.

You mean to say that whenever a discussion or my comment in the discussion of others, my earning would reduce?

@everloving That is certainly the way it used to work. I am unsure, however, what might have been the cause in your case because I understood (from on high) that the earnings program no longer deducted earnings from people who had responded to or commented on a discussion which was later deleted. It is also true that the earnings program is still under review. It's also possible that a change was made today which involved a recalculation, though it is unlikely that you would have lost 70 cents in one day that way. (Also, I don't see anyone else noticing a drop like this). I suppose that you are absolutely certain that you read the figures correctly this morning? It is sometimes confusing when they are quoted to 1/100ths of a cent!

It happens usually when you respond to discussions that are deleted later because they are against the guidelines, or when one or several of your discussions are deleted for the same reason. In the previous version of myLot we had also adjustments times to times where we could earn or lose a few cents, but not as much as $0.70.
This is where you will find out what kinds of behavior are accepted and unaccepted on myLot. When in doubt, remember the Golden Rule!

Too early to experience this problem. Hope that this is not an ongoing problem.

Nope. Everything is in tact, but when i had my eyes on the earning i found it to be low.
