Just now I found a discussion in my mail box and clicked the link to respond to the discussion. I typed a lengthy response and just while submitting the response it said " The discussion no longer exists or has been removed due to a discussion guideline violation"..I was so tired..Then why was I taken to the responding page?All my time and efforts gone wasted..How do you feel when you are in this situation?You type a lenghthy and interesting response and submit it..Just then you find that the discussion does not exist any more..How do you feel?

Just lucky that you have not submitted it otherwise your income could have been deducted. I have gone through such incident and after submitting my response the whole discussion was gone after a day. My earning also vanished.

wow..a good thought..I think this is the positive side of my worry..It is always good to think about the positive effects rather than worrying about negative ones..Thanks a lot for giving a supportive response.

so far I've always gotten stopped before I typed the response. The computer must have messed up for this to happen to you. I'm sorry that it did.

I think you are so lucky..If it was said that the discussion does not exist even before typing the response, our time and effort would be saved..

Obviously it was deleted after you got the email, during the time that you were typing your lengthy response. I never answer anything from my email, I always do it at the site. Just my personal preference.

Yes, this is an experience for me too.I will never respond to any post through the email in future. I think it is a best option to post responses by browsing through the site.

It hurts really it hurt feeling and discourage writing more from the core of heart. I have faced many time, that I made a detailed discussion with some solid material and content. It provokes many responses on the spot and after some time I found that the score decrease and I find that the discussion was removed. Like you I also had moved an other discussion to air my self.So far I could not understand what was wrong in that discussion. Do you understand what was wrong in the discussion to which your response was deleted.Please comment and have a nice day.

I think most of the discussions are removed when someone post their referral links alongwith their responses. Also when the discussion violates the terms or rules of mylot, they get deleted..
