Out of my knowledge that in participating forums like this,requires a unique content.I thought online forums are sharing of ideas,stories youve read,quotes that you love heard from somewhere and giving advice and explanations what youve read or given by someone that adds value you to you.But now I undetstand,it is in the rule.
Participating in forums is like you are writing your own book,writing personalized dramas and articles ,uniue call in actions and conclusions.Understanding and realizing that I done something is wrong is good.But is more better if someone here tells me that is prohibited one,before deleting my posts.Im sorry for dissapointments and thankyou for lessons.What more pretty to do this time is to write a posts which unique.So I will start doing it now.

When you signed up, you checked a box saying that you had read, understood and agreed to the Terms of Use. If you merely checked the box and didn't actually read them, then that is your concern! Many people, of course, are eager to get started and don't read the Terms before signing up but at least some of them look for "Help" (in the menu under your username) and read the Guidelines and Earnings Program FAQs as soon as they have joined.
In fact, a member did point out that the item you posted was plagiarised but perhaps you didn't see the response before the post was deleted. In your second post you said that you are a 'freelance writer'. Anyone who calls themself a writer should know that plagiarism (posting something which someone else has written and passing it off as if it were their own) is theft and totally unacceptable ANYWHERE!
MyLot does allow the sharing of something which you have found elsewhere AS LONG AS :
(a) the passage is relevant to the discussion and illustrates it
(b) MOST of the discussion is your own, original work
(c) the passage quoted is clearly marked as such (by surrounding it with quotation marks, italicising or by some other means), is no longer than a paragraph or two (as permitted by Copyright law) and is clearly attributed to the author or site where it was originally published.
If you want to refer to a longer passage or article, you may quote a small part of it (as above) but you should copy and paste the URL of the article into your discussion. myLot will format any URL quoted and post it as a link at the bottom of your discussion. Only the first URL will be formatted as a link, so it is wise to only post one and to put it at the end of your discussion.
As an example, I am posting a link to the Guidelines (which you should read):
This is where you will find out what kinds of behavior are accepted and unaccepted on myLot. When in doubt, remember the Golden Rule!
