I wouldnt worry about it to much just go with it the mylot team is going to do what they do. But i dont think they would remove an entire post just because someone responded with a link unless the post was requesting a link.

It must be your discussion is considered as violation of guidelines, otherwise the administrators of myLot would only delete the response. If you can confirm there was no problem in your discussion, you can contact with myLot admin to ask for a reason.

this is tottaly unacceptable.. why did not you inform the mylot staff about this.. however i think this can be a mistake.. may be your post include something else which result the ban.,. some of my posts got banned mainly because i posted links... and i have no idea about other stuff we cant post...

mylot won't delete a discussion unless it is a violation of the terms of use, otherwise if it didn't have a violation, then it shouldn't have been deleted. Only the response that has the link in it wouild be deleted and not the whole discussion. Now, if the link is a referral link it would definitely be deleted. I don't post links at all, as that is what my profile is for. I have never had any responses to any of my discussions deleted because of referral links. I am glad of that, but it isn't much anyway. Just a few cents, which I know it does add up, but it does happen. I have had my response deleted because the discussion I had responded to, had a violation. I wouldn't worry about it to much as you can make it up fairly quickly. Good luck to you and happy mylotting.

It is usually only their response that is deleted unless there was some violation with the original discussion
