Recently, I responded to many discussions and most of the discussions were deleted.
I were really disappointed and frustrated whereby the hardly trials of my responses were deleted too.
From now, my own judgement is my priority in responding to the new discussions.
I shall not respond to any new discussions which are in high possibilities to be deleted.
Sometimes, I shall respond to the new discussions in few days later.
This is to ensure that the relavant new discussions are still aliven.
May I know if I shouldn't be so caution in doing so ?
As a member of this mylot.com, do you accept my strategy too ?

The only strategy I use is to determine prior to responding if the discussion is a violation. Sometimes it can be tricky as although there are times I think something is a violation the discussion never gets deleted. This does not mean it is not a violation, sometimes admin can't keep up with the violations.
However, I have received several deletions per week, these deletions were not violations at all. Some members intentionally have discussions removed as they may not like responses of a member and feel offended and sometimes they feel regrets after starting it. My strategy with those members is to never reply to any of their posts again. My reasoning just because you have regrets I lose my efforts and or just because another member is uneducated and mean, you deleted all of our efforts. See members sometimes do not realize that all they have to do is report the comment box and instead they delete the entire discussion. Not fair at all.

hi you must go back and read my lots guidelines and rules of discussions and the questions and answers so you know how to tell what discussions will be deleted then do not respond to those you can see
have broken mylot rules thats just why us older ones keep telling you
to read and remember the rules so you can avoid the discussions that
break the rules and just bypass them so you will not
be disappointed and lose earnings again. so go read them

I believe every Mylotter has this experience before, including me. But don't worry, my advice to you is to read the guidelines again and when you chance upon a discussion, if you forget some of the guidelines, you can go back and refer and see properly whether it has any possibilities of getting deleted or not. This was what I did too. Have a good day!

I think it is because you probably do not familiar with the mylot guideline, many member here sometime will accidentally violate the guideline and did not notice it until their discussion being deleted.
I am facing the same problem too, so what I did is if I have a feeling that the new discussion started by someone might be violated the rule or guidelines, I will not respond to it and shall check it after a day. Normally if a discussion violated the rules, it will be deleted the next day. So what you need to do is just wait for one day. If it is still there, that mean it is okay for you to respond to it. Or else, just wait for your respond to be deleted too.

Ha ha, this is the strategy i use for too, i only response after a few mylotters had started the discussion or response to the no responses posts which last few days already. If the post against the rule and regulations here, it will be deleted on time. Another strategy i use is never respond to a post with just 1 sentence, high chance for these kind of posts to be deleted. Lastly to avoid deleted discussions, you also need to be familiar with the do and don't here, the fundamental thing that you need to concern. Happy mylotting.

Yes, I have many experiences with those in One or Two sentences discussions which mostly be deleted later.
Those discussion were started by the same member too.
After the deletion, I could still read the many new discussions from the same member again.
ha! ha! ha!
I shall read the discussion carefully again and again before I respond to it.

I have been here long enough to know which discussions will get deleted. Sometimes I will respond though knowing they will be deleted, because I want to help the discussion starters, and let them know that their discussion will be deleted and why it will. Most of the time they do appreciate the help, and that is what I am here for. I just point out to them that they need to read the guidelines before posting discussions, so that they won't be deleted. I have had a lot of posts deleted too, but it happens to all of us at one time or another. I will continue to respond to some anyway, so that I can help them. good luck to you and happy mylotting.

Do not despair, who experience things like that not only you but other people also experiencing this. so, try to be patient in facing temptations that hit because behind this trial there must be the best way for us.
I too have experienced similar things and it makes me wonder why I da discussions that were deleted. may be discussions that we make is not so according to what MyLot specify.
