Surprise to see this in myLot

I was doing my usual routine of responding to discussions on which I have something that I can contribute until I reach the 19th page in the interest "make extra money". I was so surprised to see this being displayed on the page itself "There are no discussions currently for this list."
At first I just thought it could be that my connection failed again so, I refreshed but get the same result then I skip one page and go to page 20 then saw some discussions there. But because of my curiosity and somehow it could just be a technical glitch, I hit page 19 again but still get the same result.
Does this happened to you? I just found it weird that there's a certain page that has no discussion at all?

I precume that once a page is full of discussions it then becomes 'a page'. If all those discussions then get deleted then it becomes an empty page.
Looks like page 19 now confirms the theory I have had since I returned that things have become appalling there if not even one discussion passed the test

hello Ms. D, I was thinking in that direction as well yet it still puzzles me considering that is the case and then when someone made a new discussion, older discussions goes down to the line and it changes the whole page and the succeeding pages, right? In that way page 19 should be filled up if the discussions there are being deleted and if that won't be the case, I was thinking that the last discussion on page 18 will jump to page 20. Now, I just made it more complicated already.

Your theory could be correct because I can now see three on page 19

That's pretty strange. I can't say that anything like that has happened to me before. I wonder what caused it????

This never happened to me but I was thinking that it might have happened because all the discussion on that page somehow violated mylot terms and they deleted them.
One day I saw a discussion and started to answer. When I finished and hit post response it said the discussion no longer exists. There are many people now who come just to post their referral links and one liner discussions.

I do understand your theory and it came into my mind too but what amazes me is the notion that given that it was deleted, should the discussions after those won't go up to the ladder? Considering that new discussions go down far below when there are another recent discussions or new posts on top of it.

I am not really sure but I guess it is something like a glitch as you have suspected. It would really be impossible to have no discussion on such interest considering that it is one of the widely discussed topic here in myLot. So most likely, the reason for such absent discussion wa the glitch.

Yeah, there are glitches all the time. I am constantly losing 20 posts in one fell swoop even though I obey all the rules. So I am not surprised to see glitches in the interests areas. More often than not, myLot is nothing BUT one big glitch!

You are absolutely right. I think I lost the same number of post yesterday or more than that. I was also deducted 0.20 cents today and which is a normal occurrence when my earnings goes up a little bit. I noticed this kind of situation every time I see some unexpected increase in my earnings.

Your experience is certainly highly unusual. Nothing like this happened to me. But vanishing of the discussion when I tried to post some response due to deletion has happened.
Is there no way to know why did it happen?

This could just be a Glitch in the site, or something that has happened because maybe all of the discussions that should be listed on that page were removed due to TOS or something as well. I know there are glitches from time to time in here and not sure what causes them, but since the next page had some discussions on them, maybe this is just a quick oversite as well.

I remember that happened to me before. I think it's the "make extra money" category as well but it was on the 5th page. I was surprised but I didn't think much because I thought it had to be a technical problem!

Haha, yeah I got the same. Probably a glitch :P No worries. It is really funny tho:P All the pages got discussions, while one doesn't.

I thought the same way and it is playing also in my mind why the discussions on a certain page won't move up or down if there are discussions being deleted. Since I noticed that it moves down when new discussion is created. Really pretty weird and the first time I saw it.
