Quick question for you old-timers on myLot

Well, I've been since February and I still have all my old discussions. So I guess that doesn't make me an old timer, but I'm not new either. I'd like to know if some one has been here longer than a year about their discussions.

That is a really good question. I just looked thru and it does seem that my discussions are still there from my start. Hope that helps

As far as I know, all of my discussions are on here. I have pages and pages of discussions that I have started on here. I know it would take me a while to go thru them all. I know I did just bring again some of the older ones to the front of my discussions page hoping to get New responses to some of them again as well. I know I keep notebooks full of some of the stuff I have written so that I have copies of them. Putting them to a CD is something I have recently considered as well. There are some stuff on here I would hate to loose as well.

I've been here for almost 8 months and I still have all my created discussions. However, I still back up my writings by creating word docs. In the early days when I first started here, you could copy and paste before you reached 500, so I normally created my discussions on word, checked grammar and spelling, and then pasted here. But when mylot took that feature away because too many members were scamming and cheating with plagiarism, it made it that much harder to back up copies on word. I still typed them up on word first and saved a copy. It comes in handy to do this because at times Mylot will have a glitch and your discussion or response won't show up, and this saves you from having to remember what your wrote and start from scratch. I don't believe we lose our posts when we get to a certain amount.

Yes they are all there from the day i started. Takes alot of digging to go back that far though. What i do now is I put "mssnow" in the tag and that way I can put that tag in along with a tag that tells what the discussion is all about. Its much easier to find later that way.

Hi,gardengrrl! Well,I'm not sure that whether I can find my first post response.But if I check the "discussions I've respond to",I think I will find it.LoL

Hello Gardengrrl, Great question! Have you asked the MyLot staff? If you do p.m. them, and get an answer, I'd love to know what their plan is about this. Thanks!

No I dont and I have not really had any inclination to keep any of them.

I still have alot of my old discussions. I think I have only lost one or two of them at most. i don't think there is a time period that they stay up. I think Mylot only deletes discussions if there are referral links or spam in them. I would like to delete some old ones myself though.

Hi Gardengrrl, All the discussions that I've started since Feb. are still here and I'm still getting responses to some of them. Its kinda weird to see 4 month old discussions pop up all of the sudden. But it happens, You just have to search for them a bit. Take care, Terry

i scanned all the pages in my 'discussions i've started' and i saw my first discussion still intact. i think mylot does not delete any of our discussions here unless of course they were deleted with valid reasons by mylot staff or you have personally requested them to delete some of your discussions which i learned from someone here that it can be done.

hi,quick question for u old times on my lot. thanjs.
