Wow! Now even responses towards threads for help are being deleted.

Strange. I was given the impression, by crash, the admin didn't just delete things just because some other member reported it. Maybe they (admin) felt it violated the rules somehow. This is purely a guess, but maybe it was because you were trying to help another member on here in a discussion rather than helping them in private. Who knows? This place really confuses me sometimes. :P

I think that if ones discussion or response is in accordance with myLot TOS then in only one case it can get deleted and it is when someone else violates TOS in your discussion or by commenting in one of your response . This is unfair though but this has also happened to be before and I wander when myLot team will realize that this is really not fair for the the one who is following the guidelines and they should deal with the one directly who violated the guidelines.

Hello Progamer, I'm sorry to hear that your aid to another member was 'shot down'. How silly! There are so many clichés: "No good deed goes unturned", and the like -- it remains an example of the absurd. At the very least, I hope that the member benefitted from your advice before the response/discussion was deleted. Funny, I thought that we lived in the "Land of the Free", and not "The Land of Censorship". Silly me! I might want to think about checking my atlas.

Was it just your response or the discussion that got deleted? This is an instance where I would question myLot for the reason. I know I have received some excellent computer advice here on myLot. BTW I was one of the few users who was able to get a discussion reinstated by rebutting the deletion with facts why is should not have been deleted.

That seems so unfair, progamer! Did you contact admin to ask why the thread was deleted? I've been here for a year now, and I still do not understand some of the workings of myLot.Sorry your response was deleted.

Hey friend, I understand what you are talking about because it has happened to me not once not twice. I once posted a thread about bar stools and it got deleted, another one about underwear it got deleted, i think this is just unfair. Now like yours, what rule did you violete or is someone else who posted a bad response that lead to its deletion? Where is Crash now to help us here? I think they should delete the response only instead of the whole discussion.

That is just terrible I thought it was going quiet again but obviously not I am sorry this happened to you Pro I really am I wish they would stop this as it is not right

Maybe you should try to find out from Crash what happened? Just a suggestion. I don't know if it will help or not.

well maybe the discussions you had responded had been deleted which means all who responded it were also gone..that was due to duplication..

I hope that wasn't my computer issue I had a week ago or so. I think you resp0onded to that. I had better check. Gee, if they are deleting responses to discussions asking for help, then half our possible discussions are gone. I was thinking of sending out a request for help with lentil recipes, maybe I shouldn't! I just checked. Your response is still there.

All you did was say thanks? I know some people who reply 'thanks' to every single thread get deleted, but just this one time? I mean who would think to report that? Or maybe no one did, mylot just went nuts?! That is pathetic. Can I give you a poem that might cheer you up? Don't kiss your honey When your nose is runny You may think it's funny But it's snot. I really should have put that in your Pro's free for all, but maybe this will cheer you up now. : )

I asked crash why when I went to print out a discussion I had viewed the previous evening(Being new to mylot)it was gone.The thing is it was so uplifting and inspiring..on a guys experiene re:God...nothing anyone could take offence at I feel..hey but thats just how I feel..lol..the article was no longer there.Crash explained sometimes when a responce is deleted,the other responces following also are deleted.Made sense sorta...only problem being the discussion had first been posted something like three months prior.The responce I wished to print was posted 5 days prior to my wishing to print it.And then there is the fact in all there were only three responces mine,and the previous two,mine being the last thanking the guy for his inspiration.Must add I took a peek once again re:crash discussion and my question to him was no longer there.I may be incorrect here,perhaps I just coulden't find it in all fairness.Do think this delete issue has to be addressed further..there are way to many members with very different views,and lets face it,you can please some of the people some of the time kind of thing.It may work more efficiently if the members were not able to have access to delete option.Then at least we would know who was responsible,allowing one to then take up with mylot team. One of the first Discussions I responded to the woman was cooking up a mighty storm..religion..lol...and I could see how someone could take offence at what she had posted.Think she was a satanist or the like,I did not delete,haven't been back to see if it is still there,did respond with a hey,if your o.k. with it that's fine,have a nice day type of thing.Bottom line here,have we become to politicaly correct?Santa can no longer go Ho ho ho,next thing the Easter Bunny will be banned for littering.

I would check that out with mylot and ask them why it was deleted. If it didn't violate any of the rules which sounds like it didn't, then I would question it.

this is so weird. i am not aware of this problem. i have to check my system for violations as how would you know that you have been deleted? Life always has a way of being a discouraging at best. Nice message. This was indeed a smooth move..really smooth..but they are all slick

wow this is all screwed up, they got this all mix up?

Now that's just going too far! Icehall bastige stinking trolls! May they rot in Hades with maggots gnawing at their decaying flesh!

Maybe lately there's a bit of a purge going on at myLot. Looks like a few people are complaining about having discussions or responses deleted. I thought that only happened when someone posted dirty discussions or the like. Perhaps there's someone maliciously complaining about posts just for the hell of it.

I think it is not fair. If you are helping a member and it should have been private, what if someone else has the same problem? If that was the reason for the help, well do they want all of you to go to your private message and ask you? If you are like me, you are rather wary of private messages. Not all of them are "I am glad to be your friend" or "Thank you for adding me to your friend list," or "I heard you are a singer, I am too. Could you tell me what songs you like," or stuff like that. Some are "I did not like what you said about ---" so I would rather the help to fix a computer problem would be where all could see it.

I was writing a response the other day, and all of a suddent I was typing in a white screen. The whole post had been deleted. That was a bizarre experience. Also, a certain person did a nasty response in one of my posts under another response directed to that responder. All of a sudden, as I watched, his nasty response dissappeared, but his name is still there as the last responder. That is weird too. Crash S. did actually tell the whole story, if you go back read all of his responses. It is there, you just have to look for it. Shalom~Salaam~Peace

What?? Do you know more people who were deleted?
