Hey sparks! Welcome back AGAIN! Glad to SEE you! And very
happy that it was a short time that you've been invisible!
Yes, we missed you and we did our best to get you back! And
we did make sure to include you in all the discussions! I
hope you enjoyed the "deletion party"! Annie was such a
gracious hostess and I know I had a blast dancing with her!
So hopefully now things might calm down a bit! So should we
have a welcoming party or just keep it on the down low?
Anyways it's great to have ya back! Hugs, Opa

As long as I don't start a welcome back party, and my name isn't mentioned, it should be ok. lol
And yes I enjoyed the deletion party very much, but was so frustrated I couldn't participate! I surfed here everyday and kept up to speed with everyone, and I'm so glad now to be back among the posting! LOL Hugs sweets, and I'm glad you danced with Annie. Ain't she grand?!!!!

I noticed that you were stuck at 2999 when i went to listen to Jerry Butler again. Then when i went back to the profile page itself, you were at 3000 with THIS discussion.
I wonder if they got tired of seeing the phrase "paid-to-show"
Well - there she is making an impression
singing
doo wah ditty ditty dum ditty doo ...
Oopsie - did I jump-start a song annoyingly playing in your head?

I knew when I was able to give AngryKitty a best response, even though I couldn't post, that I was just on suspension (for whatever reason!), and judging from the last time I was suspended, I figured today would be the day I was let back in or I'd disappear altogether. Thank the Goddess, I didn't disappear! LOL

Thanks for that BR! I figured it was only a temporary thing since your profile was still up and mylot has that new policy of erasing the profiles of people sent to banned camp.

I was still afraid that my profile would disappear in a heartbeat, so I spent a whole night copying all my discussions and my friends list so if I had to open a new account, I'd know who request for my friends list,(no way I would have remembered everyone! LOL) and what topics to avoid posting about so I wouldn't be reported for repeating myself! LOL

Nice to see you back, Sparks! I am wondering if MyLot gave you any explanation or just tacitly restored you. That is what happened when I had an earlier 'enforced holiday' ('garden leave' is, I believe, one term for it). Of course, I am jumping in to reply before I have read the rest of the discussion [ slapped hand], so you may well have done a debriefing, which I shall read later.
Anyway, welcome back ... and on with the game!

Just this morning the lot informed Annie that they had checked and as they could log into my account, there was never any reason why I couldn't. Well, hells bells, I never said I couldn't log in........I just couldn't post!! But that's an administration for you. Deniability!

Elmo comes from Sesame Street and I think there was a 'Tickle me Elmo' doll ... long story if you never had occasion to watch children's TV.

YAHOOOOOOOOOO! You're back!
About time they listened to all of us. Geesh!
I was't able to keep up all weekend to all the discussions we all posted, cause on the weekends, the hubby is home and we get lots done outside. So, I have been outside most of both days.
I don't even usually post on the weekends hardly at all because of it. But I was trying to squeeze it as much as I could.
I'm tickled PINK!
Or 'tickle me Elmo' if you prefer that you are back!
*big sigh*
@sparkofinsanity (20471)

I really don't like the color Pink, which is why I said Elmo...........plus I figured if my troll was trolling he/she wouldn't associate Elmo with pink stars and therefore nix this discussion too soon. Before it had reached two pages of responses, it was already at the top of the 'hot' list, which as we know is a red flag! LOL
Thanks for all your support and emails to admin Annie. I'm sure you're a big part
of my return! Hugs.

I can't believe it, but I must be a pest and that is probably the ONLY reason, but mylot actually responded to ME, little old ME!
I nearly shat my pants when I saw it in my inbox. In a PM, they asked me to please stop sending complaints to them as they denied having her suspended or banned. So, if they didn't do it, then who did?
I'm still pretty shocked, though, that they actually responded to ME!
I just thought you all would like to know, that there are actually real live people on the other end....they just don't make their presence known.....well until they have met a PEST like me! HA!

I posted a discussion about breaking 3000 posts and it was deleted in like a minute, even though it was the top/hot discussion on June 10th. Next day I was locked out of the site and haven't been able to post until today. Geez, jerz, where have you been!? ROFL

I'm in Cape Cod, actually!! But, I read that discussion and your number was 3001 when I read it and now it's 3002. I didn't respond to it, but I remember reading it thinking you might be taking a chance - yet others are allowed to do it all the time. I even saw your freedom discussion, but didn't realize you were gone since you're not as daily as you used to be. I is sorry!! I is glad you didn't stay gone.

Imagine how I felt and guess what I got 3 more emails today telling me the same thing. I wrote back to them telling them they keep making my heart drop out of my chest when they send me these letters. I gave them my confirmation number and told them to make note of it and if they had any problems with that to let me know.
I called though and everything is okay. I will be there.

Sparks-
Good to seek you around. I saw something about you being kicked off earlier this weekend but several of the threads in question were deleted due to TOS violations. It seems several friends had threads deleted this weekend for that, and I can't figure out what was so "violating" about them. Oh well.
Take Care and Namaste-Anora

I got all the email alerts still, so I saw them too. They went on a deletion party, and posted knowing they'd lose those discussions. They were all just showing solidarity to me because I was suspended after having so many of my own discussions deleted in a row. I'm glad they all enjoyed themselves though! LOL

I've heard a number of people say now that a lot of their posts are removed just before payout..................I find that very disheartening as one of the things I've always liked about this site is the webmaster's honesty in paying. Guess admin is feeling the recession too eh?

Last month I had 4.00 in posts removed the day before pay out so that I didn't qualify. This month I was just paid but I'm still upset over loosing last months. There are always lots of "reasons", yet never once from Mylot directly. I think that it's all arbitrary. I'm glad you are back though, didn't loose too many posts, and didn't have to start over.
