Questions I ponder by mylot deleting Discussions

Even you start discussion or responding if against the rules and guidelines they will deleted it. So don't be dis-courage instead go on and participate to dicussion but be careful... make it as a challence not to stop and angry. see you around

hi sunshine your french fries was prob ably deleted as a duplicate because I saw several others just like it or it was considered a taking a p oll of users which is also not allowed. no we do not get paid if our disussion is deleted or if our response is on a deleted disuccusion. think of it as the discussion is the trunk of a tree and our responses are leaves so when the tree is cut down in this case deleted, all tghe responses like leaves come down with it and nobody on this tree get p aid.Like I said the software deletes everything with the tree trunk or discussion. read the ru les over carefully and you will see I amright. also if you know the rules you can pretty much stay away from discussions that appear to break a rule.one thing to notice is if the discussion has been posted for a while yet there are

lol, girl I have had so much innocent stuff get deleted. I just don't even take it personally anymore.

Besides the above responses I also wanted to add that there are ties when members themselves report their own discussions. Some may have regrets and or due to slow loading of pages at times discussions get duplicated and unfortunately we are not aware of it being a double posting as perhaps the first one has moved from the new and or recent discussions. That does not happen often but I have experienced this and though maybe it would be helpful to you. Best of luck and happy myLotting.

When I read 'flavoring of french fries', my first thought was: I hope the discussion was not a recipe. Because the very first thing I told myself to remember about the rules was the one regarding jokes and recipes. We're not supposed to post jokes or recipes as discussions. =P If not that, then maybe the others are right. Maybe it was a poll type discussion, or a double post, or that maybe the one who started it reported it and had it removed. I have seen individual responses being removed though, so I definitely know they can do that. If the whole discussion was removed, then most likely they meant for the whole discussion to be removed. Don't think they'll remove a whole discussion if only particular responses need to be deleted. =)

I am interested to see the answers to this. I'm new to mylot and don't know all of how it works. thanks all !
