A letter to the myLot gods

You would like to be the one who deletes discussions? Well you can always surf from memeber to member looking at their discussions etc for guideline violations and report them. That would get a lot deleted. There have been and I feel still are some members that do that here. Now being a mylot "GOD"? Hmmmm? Is their such a thing here really. I have tried contacting them about various things and have a really hard time getting any type of reply unless it's along the lines of some type of violation question per say. I don't feel as though it's a "big brother" type of aspect but we do need to know that there are many thousands of people, members and staff alike, that see what we write here. So it isn't a private type of ordeal discussing things. Now I am babbling on. Hahahaha!! The guidelines are that, "guide" meaning that it sin't a "rule" in actuality. They don't want it to read rules as that seems like an "order" to some people. I like the term guideline much better than rule personally. I am done babbling and I got lost and sidetracked as well.
HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB!!~

Notwithstanding the rest of the content of your submission to the omniscient overseers... You can post recipes. Anything that is okay.

You know that "L" word meaning a non-baptist beverage? You can't use that word but you can use licker. Benzaloy pointed out the other one to me, and to my amazement, he's right. It violates their word guidelines. Go figure...

The main motivation for this site is money. Advertisers pay good money to get their message out here. EBay in particular pays a good chunk to get the ads on. And to be perfectly honest, I have clicked on them and followed a bunch of links to certain items.

You have been baking too long in that hot Miami sun...lol. The real purpose of this site is to make the owners money. We are just byproducts of that purpose. I am sure you could become a mylot Goddess if you were to pass the test. As of yet, none of us know what that test is because they won't tell us...lol As long as people keep joining this site, things won't change too much.

First of I believe the mylot gods are on vacation, 90% of the time and it is only when we report something do they go into action. or if you use a word they have listed under NO NO's that we ever hear from them. I know that if a lot of people decide some one needs to be smarten up they will give negative ratings and thus cause that person to lose ratings. as for the money I have several open discussions underway and have earned a grand total of about 23 cents this week. so I am well on the road to riches lol. I believe that there are certain mylotters that do have ways and means to get what they want accomplished, and some of them break every rule in the book. So I can not answer you query, and as for the mylot gods, no worship coming their way from this lady. neither respect not willing to help either. I have reported so many rule breakers that I spent more time doing that than posting, and all it has gotten me is a big fat zero. so that is what I am returning to them. I believe in taking care of my own, So I guess like you I am not considered, unless it is to be bashed. and He// I am used to that.

lol. . .they are not godly at all, just human like the rest of us. Maybe more power that they can choose to wield however they want to. I hope if you get the power that you will use it to help and not hinder!

LOL, this sound just right. thanks for sharing

Hey, neat little story. I shop on Amazon.com a lot and I have noticed several times that at the bottom of the screen, Mylot will be mentioned as a place to go and find product reviews and the lastest fashions and things like that.
So you will be happy to know that Mylot gets around the internet. Actually, I am surprised that more people don't know about and work on my lot than do.

I don't have any idea how or why Mylot does what ever it does. I am just a fish in the Mylot fishbowl, looking for a few grains of bread.

Haha, you are brave babes. i will give you a big 0 for meaning in this discussion but a big 10 for entertainment value.

Oh you are not the only one with wacky ideas, only that i dont dare posting what is spinning in my head. My psyciatrist is sat next to me:)

No, it's not just you. I've thought about it, although maybe not quite so intensely.:) I don't know what the purpose of a site like this is, but to bring information to people. I think it's really no different than belonging to a Yahoo mailing list or something like that, just much more diverse and they pay us. Why they pay us, I have not yet figured out.

I didn't know we could not post recipes. That's odd. I've seen it before, and I've even started a discussion about recipes. I don't know if it was deleted...I never checked.
