Where do you think all the Discussions go?

That is a very good question. I can only make an out of this world guess that they are probably putting it in a repository or storage of some sort or eventually delete after a certain period. I guess it would cost them more if they will keep those information forever.

I responded not long ago ona discussion started 3 years ago. There were almost 900 responses.

If you got to your profile 'discussions I've started' and go back through all the pages you will see yours too.

Some of the older discussions are still alive in the column on the right too
similar discussions ----->>>
and when you have a discussion open you see them.

I do not think they get deleted. My reason for this is because just recently I had a couple of old discussions from 3 years ago reappear.

I believe that what is done on them internet stays on there forever. I do not think that Mylot gets rid of any past discussions.

I've been here three years too, my friend, and as far as I can see, every one of my discussions is intact. They seem to go into an archive but don't ever seem to be deleted. I wonder sometimes what use they are to Mylot or other Internet users but I can't think why they would want to keep them forever.

Brightest Blessings.

I'm pretty sure they're all there in some kind of archived system. It must be really huge with the storage, especially since there's over 167,000 people on here lol. I know when I went to my 'best responses' and clicked on one from back then, it still pops up with all the discussion still there. Key words is what brings them up?

They keep them in the server.

Here's the oldest discussion on myLot; numbers 1 and 2 were deleted for violations.

I think they have most of them. I have gone back as far as I could and still had not reached the beginning usually going onto the profiles, and then checking all their discussions to see how many pages. I have not done that on the todays' top, etc. I would not have the time. So I suppose if someone has the time to go through they are welcome to do so.
I am too busy doing other things.

I know about a discussion which is more than 2 years old and still running. I mean people are giving away responses to those. I think mylot deletes only those discussion which authors are not active for an year or so.

That can only be a reason why we can see our 2-3 years old discussin in our profile page.

thats something even i have pondered on, i sure have made alot of discussions and i think they just remain in our folder.it would have been nice if we had been notified of the discussions that were being deleted.
