Nervous about answering a mylot interest discussion am I being too paranoid

I do not like to answer those discussions, but they tend to come in the most popular discussions all the time, so it is as if they are tempting you to answer them and sometimes I cannot find anything else to respond to, that is something that I can do in length. But it is annoying as if someone wants you decide between making money on mylot or being friendly.

GRANDPA BOB I don't understand why they would delete the up dates about your Dad. A lot of people are interested in him and how he is doing. Congrats for how high you have gotten. all you can do is let it go and move on.

Yeah the milestone ones get deleted all too often as they are a violation. I even had deletions for updates on my dads health. Too funny. I just let it go and moved pon. I avoid the celebratory discussions first and foremost. I waqnted to start one about me reaching 10,000 this morning as I was excited for this but alas. Have a great day/evening. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

The links for other sites like reference sites are all right. For instance if you want to know what is the best medical information site, I will give a link to Web Md, or if you want to know about Russia in the 19th century, I will give you a link to a site that explains about it. But if for instance you belonged to Ancestry.com, and your id name was arfgfg you should never enter your referral link. I do not mind recipes as long as it starts with an introduction and how it came about.

I usually post in other interests. But I am getting rather tired about the Obama McCain discussion in the politics all the time,and finding out some dirt on someone, but at least I do not have to worry about being deleted because someone complained about their star or asked me how much did I make, etc. It is just that for some reason there is nothing interesting right now except medical conditions and I am sick of answering what kind of toilet paper I like in two sentences.

Only if a discussion is reported by a member does it get deleted. So they all don't get deleted it seems. Thanks also. I won't be starting one about my milestone anyhow. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

Grandpa Bob I found out something rather disturbing,one mylotter claims she deletes any discussion that doesnt interest her, and I am going huh, say that again? I respond dont delete someone elses discussion simply because it doesnt interest you that is unfair to the rest of us who lose point when you do that. No wonder some discussions disappear that have not broken any rules, some numbskull simply deletes them because they do not interest her, should be some way for my lot admins to check for that kind of stuff.This is really unfair, wonder that mylot has not thought of that?

You can't delete a discussion except in your e mail notification. You can report it if it breaks the rules and myLot has to delete it if they see fit.

whiteheather I found out something rather depressing, one user' says if she is not interested in a discussion she just deletes it and goes to another one, and I am going what, say that again:? I didnt know we could or should do such a thing, that in my eyes is wrong, you dont delete something simply because it doesnt interest you, am I not right? You dont do anything but go to the one that does interest you. why do away with a discussion that may have a lot of responses and cause those people to lose points because you were not interested in it? Maybe mylot should be informed about this?

It is absolutely NOT POSSIBLE for a myLot member to delete a discussion that can only be done by myLot admin. I think she meant she deleted it from her email notifications in other words she just skip making a response. I delete them from my email all the time but the discussion is still available for other on myLot to respond to. I have even requested myLot to delete a discussion that I opened and they did NOT delete it.

I never start a post that does not follow mylot guidelines, but if I get on a mylot interest, sooner or later, there is one person who will, and that means if I had my answer to the original post after this one boasted about her star, wages, etc. is there not a chance that my response will be deleted afterwards? I did read that post about the one who deletes subjects she is not interested in, and I wonder whether she is telling the whole truth. Maybe she is also reporting them and getting them deleted by mylot.

If we answer a post that later gets deleted we should still get credit for it..I don't know if we do but if we did our part by answering we should still get paid...but who knows..I think all the post that i have tried to answer has already been deleted before i have a chance to answer..that is if they were going to be deleted..

I am rather nervous about answering the discussions on mylot. I do not want my discussion or my response to be deleted, because even if I am careful, if the answer is something like how myLot figures out payment, and I forget to mention MacBeth and the cauldron (and therefore it deserves the ) and I get it right, it might be deleted. So when someone asks how can mylot afford to pay, well I clam up.

my self i most ly answer post that I get through emails

If I put on the notify me, I would never get anything done. I would be too busy answering emails. As it is, I have a hard time going through all the posts I am interested in and have to sometimes save some for the next day.

The only money ones I will answer are in the interests that are about earning money, credit, etc. but not in the mylot interest group. I did answer one of them and then the next day after a whole lot of mylotters answered, the original poster said, that she could not find her post and that it had been deleted and of course that was the day I had spent more than the usual two or three hours here. So you can see how I felt. I am more interested in the other interests.

I did reply to a discussion and someone violated the rules and the whole post was deleted. That happened a couple of times. I do not report any discussions even if I suspect they might as I do not want to be thought of as a nasty person. I hate discussions about how much or how little or something from someone who would go into leaps of joy if they found a farthing on the street (oh and they were not worth that much) Have they not something more interesting to talk about?

You do have to be careful. I guess you have to contact myLot directly. I was hoping for the money or being here for friends would contact mylot for that donation link or box on the earnings page. But I guess that is not negative, but the spirit I have about it is. I just do not like money or friends, or I got up to so many posts! aren't I wonderful?

Thank you. I never say anything negative about mylot, a very few myLot members yes, but not mylot.

Yes, dear, you are!! :)

It seems that in the top discussions last week, there were a lot of the making money and money vs friends, or I got my star, or do they all hate me here because my star went from a 10 to a 9 (wait until it comes down to a one, then you will know that a whole lot of mylotters really hated you.) and all that. I do not see that many on the uploading photos and usually it is in another discussion when they are talking about their new house, some pretty flower, etc.

And this is from veterns mylotters? This sounds like either a newby or someone who is desperate for attention..

I do not like those discussions. I will read the suggestions, but not post on them. Some of the suggestions I already do anyway and I would rather go to another interest that I can really get into. I mean I am more interested in that fight between the McCain and Obama supporters and writing and health issues than asking how much or why don't I on the mylot interest group. Yet the trouble is these discussions always appear on the popular interest site, and yet sooner or later one or more of them gets deleted and the ones who reply lose out.

I have never been the type who makes the choice between money or doing what you like and yet that is the attitude I find in a lot of things. Like being a writer (not published accept for a couple of articles yet and one of my stories entered into a contest) they assume that you should just write for free and not make any money because you love it and that is what I find in those questions, the assumption that if you come here for the money you have this sour look on your face and if you do not make the quota you go in a decline. While me I am wondering why can't I write more than four or five lines? Now I know that is because I read too many Readers Digest condensed books when I was young and listened to much to the "you can say what you want in few words," but really why did I just never learn?

I wish I could write more, but I think it is because I do not do that much ranting and raving. I do not like it when the others rant as I have to go through their whole posts to find out what they are talking about.

I think that the part about going into a decline is a bit wrong and cannot be applied to many people. As I said, when I first joined, I found that I made very less, and while it took others only around 300 posts to make their first payout, it took me 650 or so. I never stopped then. I was trying to understand myLot and now that I have understood it, I have more to get from it than just money. About your failing to write more than four to five lines, I think the reasons that you pointed our are pretty much valid for your case. bourne

I usually avoid the mylot interest, but the others i will respond to. I do hate when someone reports a post because it is not their point of view. I never notice when a post gets deleted unless well my earnings are not as what I expected or they write that they could not find the post they deleted and if they did follow the guidelines, they wonder why.

That is what I think. I have an idea that the trolls write in to mylot and say, "I really hate it when people say nasty things to me because I am a ==why not make it illegal to use stupid" or " I have rac*oons, and is not the last part of the word also an insult to the blacks? So why not kill two birds in one stone?" etc.

who know sometimes this site boggles my mind it seems to have majic rules of it's own that are invisable to me lol

And I went to the top discussions and guess what? Two of the discussions were about earnings. So what is to do? I alternate between top and my friends and even one of the earnings discussions was in my friends list. If it were advise as to how to not get kicked of or be reported such as "follow the guidelines," "do not insult others with extremely bad words," etc. then that discussion would be all right, but what I see are those about "no one loves me because my star went down," and the money one. It is getting ridiculous. And even if someone is crying to help, can't help them.

I feel the same way. I usually read the posts through and if they are on mylot and boast about whatever they have or ask why have I not, I do not respond to them. I mean that and the money vs friends, etc. and the ones with links with referrals, makes it wonder why they do not read the guidelines first and why even if they are beginners, why not read a few discussions on the mylot interest and then start writing? That is what I did.

I am rather curious about why they ask the questions about what mylot pays, if mylot will pay, why my star is, does everyone hate me, etc. as if they have no other subject coming up and that is all they think about. I mean I sometimes get discouraged about whether my discussions are quality and why I cannot of anything to say, but I just go to something else.

I am not doing as much myLotting as I used to, health problems. I keep away from discussions that will be deleted. I do find, however, even in the discussions I am sure about, there is always someone who thinks the way to help is to put in their referral link.

I usually am too busy responding to the other questions. Why I do not have any time to start many discussions and I find the other interests way more exciting unless it is a day when there are a lot of "what color is your hair?" type. I guess myLot gives each monitor a day to pick out the top discussions.

I usually never notice when I reach a posting milestone. The only time I noticed was when I found that I could copy and paste and I could back space and correct without the warning. Besides I love writing anyway, and I am writing a novel, so to me it is nothing. Mind you, if someone finds it hard to write (like have a broken arm or something) I guess they have a real reason to boast.
