I hope I am wrong but I am afraid she is really not happy with mylot. She had her account banned one week ago,she then set up a new account and started few discussions,but i found out that they had all been deleted today.I am not sure the reasons,she said she would not come back if she could not get back her old account,but she changed her decisions because of her friends,but I am not sure whether she will continue to post later.
Have you had any friends who have been banned before?
Do you know the reasons behind the bans?
Have you had any discussions deleted by mylot without any violations?? What are those topics about??
I am not complaining but i would like to see whether it really happens all the time in mylot.I hope she will read this discussion and get back her old account as well.

Hello easy. I was very surprised to learn earlier that all her discussions in her second account were completely wiped out. I like to know the bottom line of what's going on here too.
A close friend's account was recently banned too. He was with mylot for nearly 8 months now. Last week, he told me he can't log in at mylot. All his discussions are decent ones and he never violated any rules either.
I was getting more flabbergasted with all this recent happenstance. The least that mylot can do is to alert or warn the member or leave an explanation. I'm not even posting any thread for now. I'm just sorry for "her" and my friend and I hope mylot will reconsider bringing back their account again.

So i think your friend had also tried to send message to mylot admin but had been brushed off.Wasn't he?
I am thinking whether there is a glitch which cause them being removed from the mylot database.
I think we would like to know about the reasons why they are banned so that we will not do the same thing.

It sure has reasons, I think one is because the user had made multiple accounts. We all know that she did is a complete violation, not unless one of those accounts was cancelled. Plus, there's a good chance that she'd get banned if she also had previous violations concerning posts here.
I've had a friend who got banned, it's one of the most controversial member here and I am shocked at all after seeing his profile deleted.

May be you are talking about the same member with the last reply(charms88). So if her first account was cancelled,was she allowed to open another new account? Since mylot did not tell her about the ban,she had assumed she had been banned completely by mylot for the first account.
That is why it is important for mylot to have more communication with the members.

This is what I know, I've seen older members returning here with a different account with username different and the same. I think there's a timeframe here, if one person would like to make a come back, then they should wait for that certain period.
But my guess is, it's gonna be difficult now since they've been making changes every now and then. But let's all they do come back, after all, they make good topics too.

Yeah I knew someone that had their account banned, it was back then when they were suspending people's accounts for photo abuse, although most of the people got their accounts restored, I have not heard of people getting banned more than once, unsure what you could do on here to get that to happen.

sorry, of course her second account ban to. if you banned you have to stay out not start new name. this is why she/he ban a second time.
see they ban you when they dont like what you say or something you post that means they no longer want you here.
it is sad about your friend i hope they ask mylot to come back.

I have had several friends banned and I don't know why. They always added some great material to discussions. I don't get it. I think I have had one topic deleted a long time ago. I can't recall the subject. Several great freinds that were good posters have simply vanished. I don't know why. I think mylot should list those who have been banned and give a reason. At least it might make it easier to keep track of what happens to friends. I certainly hope you don't get banned for some reason. You are one of my few links to the great down under. lol.

Honestly i think everyone may get the chance to be banned,may be you will not see me here some days later and you and me will never know the reasons.
As i know ,mylot had not replied to her at all and she did not even know what she had done wrong for the ban.
May be it is the risk about online earning as well.

I'm sorry to read your friend had her account banned, and had the discussions from her second account deleted. Something isn't right there.
Just recently, there have been a LOT of complaints from members because Mylot wouldn't let them log in to their accounts. At first, I thought it was just a glitch. However, after having read several discussion along the same lines, I'm convinced that it's not.
I do feel that we should have a warning system in place, such as if you violate a term or condition of mylot, they should give you a warning and tell you that if you violate any more within a certain time frame, you'll be banned.
Then if you go for that time and don't violate any more rules, they should lift the warning. Banning without telling people, or letting them know why really isn't right, and it's not fair.

Tell me about it. When I first got banned I went crazy doing everything possible to my compyeter thinking I had problems with my computer as I wasn't notified I'd been banned. It almost came to getting someone in to check my computer out. Thankfully I didn't spend that $50. HAHAHA! A warning system would be nice. Or at least let the member now asap as to the reason(s) they were banned. And to ban a group for an investigation is ridiculous. That's what happened to me.

As i know,her discussions have not violated any discussion guidelines,she did not start any one line discussions or give one line replies,If she was banned ,how about those members who give yes/no replies,aren't they violate the discussion rules as well??
I cannot say anything if she has done something else,that is why mylot should tell her the reason behind the ban.

Hi, Anna you know Mylot won't tell you anything they just delete or Ban, I think it is so unfair, but they is the wayit is, one of my friends got banned and they didn't even tell her. they even told me one time that they would Ban me, they gave me a waring, I think they should give other people warning too! I have a had a few discussion deleted too, with out explaination. Ok, Anna I will chat later. I won't be on here much today, and lately I haven't been or here much the weather is too nice, enjoy your day!

I had been banned for 6 days without an explanation until many of my friends here wrote mylot complaining etc about it. I was given an email with the reasoning for the ban AFTER I had been reinstated with the same account. I have no idea who you or charms is talking about. But this is nuts and I am also one older member that's not pleased with the mylot issues at hand for the past month. I also have thought about dissapearing from here as I am afraid once again to start a discussion and or respond anymore. Thanks for the discussion also.

Yeah it was like I became a CULT figure over that 6 days. YIKES!! But there is a definite need for communication to be better between members and staff. We should know who the moderators are. I am sure they are around listed as regular members just unknown to us or most of us.

She still has not got a reply from them? This is so disappointing. I was just answering Kelly's discussion. If you say all her discussions for her new account were deleted as well, this means they really don't want her to stay at myLot anymore. It is likely they will try to trace her. As long as she makes known who she really is, her account will be banned. The only choice for her is to start afresh with a totally new identity. I am honestly curious what the reason for the ban is. Everyday when I log in to myLot, I wonder if I will suffer the same fate. Easy, do you think you will see me tomorrow? And will I still see you tomorrow?

I think she will never get the reply from mylot.Before i think the ban may be due to the glitch so that her account had been removed from mylot database automatically,but as all her discussions in her second account had been removed as well,we could be sure mylot really did not want her to be here.
I am not sure about the reason,she has never criticized about mylot,what she always started were neither controverial nor abusive,people always liked to reply to her as she was a very nice person.She had tried to give up before but was brought back by her friends,but it seems that mylot had strong determination to clear her account.
Wizard,may be you and me may have a high risk of deletion because we always tried to speak up. Mylot do not really like people to talk about them,especailly if you have said something true but negative things.
It seems that many members have been banned recently,as from this discussion,i can see one more,it also raises my worries about some other friends who have not been active for more than one week or more but used to be here everyday.May be....
I also have the same worry,may be you will not see me tomorrow or vice versa,if you really cannot see me logon for more than a week,may be you can also help me to tell other people so that they will not worry about me.
I am going out soon,i hope i can logon after i come back.

I have not been able to rack my brain as to whom has been banned. I know there are some friends I do not see posting anymore, if their account is banned does it still show up in my friends list? I am concerned it may be one of my friends. I have never had anything deleted nor had any violations. I try to do everything on the up and up. I am sorry for your friend though.

They will still be on your friend list even they are banned.
May be it will be me next time,no one knows.

Oh, I notice one of my fren is not longer active, and i hope she is not the one you are talking about. I heard cases about being BAN by Mylot, no reason given, and they come back with another account name.
I have started a few discussions, none was being deleted so far.

I had some friends who habe been inactive suddenly,but the one i am talking about should have been banned so that she cannot log on to her old account for long time and had to start another account but her discussions were all removed after one week she started the new account.It is sad.

It was really quite unfair the way mylot just cancelled peoples accounts without any warning and without explaining why the did it. I was a victim too. I was myexcellency2 but then one day I just could not log in. I tried contacting mylot and after a few days with no response I actually left but then remebered all the friends i have here so I decided to come back and hopefully re-establish contact with all of you. Thanks for your concern.

Easy888;
Recently I've had four close friends leave and I've been thinking about it myself.. Those four are people who welcomed me when I joined, we grow to know each other via responses and now I learnt a darkness to why they've left.
(Which I didn't really want to know)
I dunno though, I hate losing friends or people I like it kinda sucks but I wish them well :(
Mylot doesn't do enough to keep members happy..

I did have a good friend banned. I do know that that once your banned they will check your isp and if you try using another account it will be baned also. Once your banned your banned.
I have a few suggestions to not get banned. Don't make anyone mad at you. Don't send any emails that might be misread or someone might take wrong. Anything you cant say on mylot don't say anywhere else.. Things can and will be used against you. Emails can hurt you and can get you banned. Just keep being you easy and you will be fine.
I did have one discussion deleted it was a game i wanted to play. Mylot didn't like it so it was deleted. That was the only one.

I am not sure if beautcuttie is the one you are talking about but I haven't seen her on here for almost a week now and I'm wondering whether she has been banned AND what for? I miss her and her discussions and I don't think she violated mylot at all. Sorry if I mentioned her name and I am not suppose to. SOmething seriously is going on here and it sounds like to me there are some very jealous people on here that may be reporting discussions for the hell of it or I don't know, I shouldn't assume but it doesn't make sense to me either way.

She had told me something about it before,i meant some people might have reported to her discussions,but i did not think it was the report that lead to the ban of her account as mylot would have check the validity of the reports.
Anyway,it seems that everyone is at risk now,we cannot do anything but enjoy the time to be here.

I saw the first posting in her second account and thereby understood about denying access to her old account. It was surprising to hear the news. Their could be reasons for mylot to ban her account, but it would be a very nice thing if they could give some reason for the ban. I think she will continue her communications with mylot and manage to regain her original account, which had more than 3500 postings, if I remember correctly. Her disappearence from our discussions is really a gap which is very much felt.
