Why does Mylot have a make extra money category?

There is another interesting issue. There are Making Money and Make Extra Money categories. Why are they separate - I don't know...

I think you are not allowed to post links or doing a direct promotion to a site. But you can make it looks like discussion. Make extra money is quite popular category so far. Without this category, mylot will lose many members

I think we are dealing with two different things here - the categories come from the members putting 'things' into their interests example I could create a category 'making whatch ma call its' under things I have done and it would create that - I'm sure there wouldn't be any other members with that same interest but who knows, some people just add anything so if I posted a discussion under that category some people who respond may also add that to their interest. As for the discussions being deleted - I don't know, for the hundreth time I wish when a discussion is deleted admin would post or at least notify the person WHY it was deleted.

catagories or topics are not created by mylot, they are created by members I'd guess that some catagories get checked more often because they are "forbidden" like the "making extra money" might contain links and stuff or "jokes" since jokes aren't allowed.

No but I had the same question when I first joined. I dont understand why some posts gets deleted and others dont. There was even a guy who said referral links can be posted if related to the discussion. I might have to reread the terms of service cause I dont get it. Better yet, maybe I will ask Crash, LOL

That what makes me confuse too, though so far have not encounter deletion of own discussion. But I have 2 responses which was deleted because the root discussion was being deleted. If you have seen other is still working on, I mean not deleted when in fact it is just like your post then it would be unfair. I guess mylot should give us further explanation as to why they delete certain discussions if there exist unfairness. Or maybe, so their will be no complaints, they should delete interest about make extra money.

Maybe it's a conspiracy! They might be setting us up so that the referral discussions can be easier found and deleted... that's what I think. It is odd that they would have the category if we are unable to really utilize it = ) Your best bet is to post the link on your profile page rather than attempting to start a discussion that will likely be deleted anyway.

that is a very good question and you should write to them and ask them.

one of my friend i read lot of her discussion but suddenly next day they delete the discussion, i never see that the post alink of something else, i dont know what to say as your said it is fairness.

Yeah as long as you don't post any links in the post.. it can stay. You can tell people to find the link via your profile though etc. So this is a way to promote with out getting the topic deleted.

Hum, guess I should check things out more often 'cause I didn't realize there was such a category.

I don't know why yours got deleted sweetheart and I am sorry that they did. I remember last year it was explained that many discussion topics are set up by mylot members and that is why they are there - like the fact that they do not consider that jokes are inside of guidelines but there is a jokes section too! Quite confusing huh? xxx

To me there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to which one's get deleted. That is a good question why do they have a make extra money category if you have a 50/50 chance of your discussion being deleted! It would be nice to know what validates a valid discussion!

well maybe its time for you to start a blog in this area and tell us just how we can get to read it and probably you have contravend some rules

Hi stephcjh, I've been MIA for a while and I see that this issue is still an ongoing confusion around mylot. It might be better if mylot will set a few rules on what topics or discussions we must post under "extra money" category. Just the name itself, people will conclude right away that they can post any money making ideas and opportunities that they like to share. I can understand the feeling of having our discussions deleted. Based on what you said, you had strictly adhered to the policy of mylot and yet, it was still deleted. I, for one, would love to hear what mylot admin can say about this matter. I have to admit that I'm straying away from that category since there is a greater chance of having the discussions as well as our responses deleted. Sorry to hear that your discussions was deleted though.

I haven't notices this yet. Now I will make sure to keep my eyes open for it. I also have to take a better look at what myLot says is appropriate for posting and what is not. It's been quite a while since I've looked at the terms of service or anything like that.

I have been wondering a lot about that too. But well, the 'make extra money' category is actually created by us.. not by mylot. If only people can read TOS and not spam their referral links, then we will have less discussions deleted. It's understandable if they are new members. However, sometimes, despite being reminded before, they still do it. =/ There are so many discussions and so little moderators. They probably might have overlook. If you feel injustice, you should report those discussions that have broken TOS. Once reported, they will be deleted soon.

To be honest with you, most discussions I make under the "Make Extra Money" category rarely get deleted. Maybe it's the way you're approaching your discussion? How you word it? I mean, afterall. Mylot said they didn't check all the messages themselves but their system has a certain way of doing things. So, maybe a lot of your discussions come across as some sort of promotion or spam? I'm not entierly sure. Sorry I cant be of much help, but I thought I would give my two cents, :p

i have noticed that because for some time when i get a notification of a posting by you in recent times and i was a little angry cos some of the topics are in my area of interest but once i open it they say its no longer existing.i think the best you can do is to send these postings to your friends here as private messages by so doing we can come out and comment on it what do you think?

That annoys me as well. I wonder what it is that we write that gets it deleted? I have posted quite a few discussions that were deleted. I got mad when they first got deleted because that takes away from my earnings. I guess we just have to deal with it since they write the checks. good luck
