Who are we to judge?

I can understand someone voicing the thought that a discussion might be removed if they have only just answered one similar themselves, or have had their own removed.Beyond that we are just speculating, as it's not our responsibility to monitor the site.

Personally I think that the member insinuating such is because they actually fell that it may be against the guidelines. See sometimes it can be misleading as to whether something is actually against the guidelines. I do not think admin is on reading every word in a sense that it is prompting admin to divert their attention to a specific discussion. By the way any member reporting a discussion does not actually mean it is going to be deleted as a member can mistakenly report a guideline thinking it actually is a violation and as it turns it is not. So it reporting does not actually get it deleted if it is not warranted. On another note there are a great many discussions that deserve immediate deletions and do not not because myLot favor, or non-reporting of it, but simply admins cannot be everywhere every single second. I have seen many discussions that so deserve deleting and never get tended to. This is why the guidelines say we are encouraged to report as admins cannot be everywhere. Wording not verbatim but definitely around those lines. I use to try and help so many members out but informing them that the discussion was may be deleted as it so warranted it, to find that members then get really insulted and well to find that I was spending countless hours posting my response and help in that area and get disgruntled members as well of countless hours of lost efforts. Hope all this helps and not trying to dis way your opinion in any way all the above based on my experience here.

hi zandi early in the morning and I am stll sleepy but you are so right, if a discussion has not been deleted I would not state that itmight be deloted as no respectable admins is going to delete a discussin after it has been up for awhile.They have the ball and yes who are we to judge the discussion. Tf it has stood the test of time enjoy answering or not, thats your decision .Now if it were new and I could see it really broke several rules i might warn the newbie that it could be deleted due to rule violations , then tell her or him to read all the information ,the guidelines, the rules of discussion and the questions and answers. I would suggest that they do this before any posting as that way they would learn not to break rules and to really earn.Also it would help them to have fun here and enjoy being a mylotter. o

When members make comments about posts possibly being deleted they are only guessing because, as you say, the final decision is always up to admin. Even if someone reported said discussion the final verdict would still be up to those in charge. MyLot is a mystery that’s true, just look at the way the earnings are worked out! I still love it and I don’t mind not being in control in fact that’s part of the fun!

Well said zandi... But you know when i say that "this discussion may be deleted" in my started discussion then be sure it will be within 24 hours. Yes, i start when i find something rude or abusive regarding users and start it so that at least a few members can give a look. I never hope to get respond but wish that it is not overlooked. Again i never comment thus way in a discussion where i am not the starter. have a nice day.

Yeah, I agree with you Zandi. I am not against reporting a discussion, but admin need to see the contents of discussion, if s/he cannot then they can choose moderators to decide about discussion. Because any member can any time report any discussion. But one thing which is very disgusting for me, a discussion remained in myLot for one year, people discussed that topic and after one year this type of comment comes, then is it justice to remove that if only one member is reporting it. I think beside moderator there should be some policy for removing discussion like 3 or 4 times report on a certain discussion, then admin admin should read that discussion before taking any decision But one year is not like one day, it remained out there in the market for 365days and how can admin delete it after this much time, why it does not came into sight in this much time by any member Happy Lotting...

If a discussionget going and last for i say a week peers to me they then stay for ever . I think I have some still here from 4 years ago lol ANd never think of one geting deleted I still answer some that do get deleed then scatch my head as to why?

Hi Zandi, I think a lot of us have responded to discussions and mentioned to the person that it violates guidelines and hopefully it won't be removed. It isn't so much to pass judgement but to help the person so they don't continue and maybe pause to read the guidelines. Telling them so doesn't mean that it actually will be removed. It could pass by the radar or possibly we are wrong. I don't think it is usually done with bad intent.

yep im always wondering. ive seen ones that i want to respond to but wont because i think they will be removed. then, ive responded to ones that had no reason i could see thats been removed. and you loose your time and probably no one sees your words of wisdom

Hello my friend zandi458 Ji, Well, in my case I wish to gthink whatever is in my limits, I try to fremain in limits and boundaries as taught by hubby, who is still under reveival. He ha slost all gfaiths in myLot, as tehy did not replyu, why at all he wa sremoved. Simply telling against Guide lines may not satisfy all petrsons. So this way I fully agree with you taht it is an mystry. But I am very mjuch enjoying and can not live without myLot. May God bless You and have a great time.

According to my thoughts, it's just playing inside a castle, where we don't know where we will go similarly, it's just like where our discussions will go. If we are in the correct path, then we are winning the way, if we are choosing the wrong path in the castle, we are gonna get lost, similarly with this mylot !!! I don't know about those " I think this discussion might be deleted" but i have seen those phrase somewhere. But i don't guess it has any adverse effects of a discussion getting deleted !!

True indeed. We are just members. We don't have any deciding rights coz this is Mylot and all things 'admin' are left to the Mylot staff to take care of. We just have to abide by the guidelines and post discussions according to it. Nevertheless, the Mylot experience is truly a fun one in my life.

Yes I agree that you read the guidelines many time and see to it that every discussion you have in cover on that guidelines.. Then suddently you received responses saying "I think this discussion might be removed". Sorry but if you analyze the phrase given he used "I think" and "might be" meaning he has speculation, not sure, pre-empt which for me not consider judging. He was given his opinion, his observation which here in mylot in normal because of such guidelines.. However, if he used the word "sure and definitely" 100% I will telling you that he is judging you.... thanks.. see you around
