Does this happen to everybody?
I checked on my profile to find one of the discussion I started because i haven't replied to the responders of that discussion yet. As I searched over and over, it wasn't there. It was an important discussion for me. It contained answers that i needed to know. I was expecting my discussions would always be there where i could find and go back to anytime i need to re read the responders post.

hi you are new bu t did it ever occur to you to read the g uidelines? all the rules of discussions and dos and donts are right there to be read? why not read it , save your discussions by knowing the rules, why do you newcomers refuse to read the guidelines as thats what shows you how to use mylot and have fun and enjoy it,losing a discussion does not sound like fun to me.see if you
knew the donts then you would see why it was deleted and might
not do that again.read the g uidelines as its there to show you how to avoid having things deleted.

@Hartley: Same as, aimhrea. We did read the guidelines. We avoided the doing the 'do nots' but still we have some of our discussions deleted. My topics were not against the rules as far as I'm concerned.
The topics that got deleted on my list was about earning money and about falling in love with a gay person. Is there anything wrong with that?

hello Hartley. i did read them before posting. who said i did not? who said that as a newcomer i refused to read them? that's why i was puzzled why it got deleted cause as far as i know, and as far as going back to read the guidelines for like the third time after seeing the notification, i could not figure out the specifics of why my discussion fell under the violation of the part of the guideline that was mentioned in the notification. and yes loosing it is not only not fun but also disheartening. that's why i emailed them to ask for clarification in the event i missed or misconstrued a detail. thanks.

It is mylot moderators who delete the posts when they feel that it is violating the rules and regulations of mylot TOS. You might have got email as a notification about that. Check you email you will find out why your post is deleted.

You can search the full page that you have started discussions. Means there are so many pages for the discussions that you have started. You should find that....

It has not happened to me yet but some of my responses got deleted because the main discussion was deleted. This happens when the admin thinks that you have violated the rules here in mylot that's why it is important for us to know the site's guidelines by heart. Take some of your time to read these guidelines: http://www.mylot.com/o/guidelines.aspx. I'm not sure if our earnings are affected once our discussions or responses are deleted. Maybe we are not paid with those discussions. To avoid wasting our time creating or replying to discussions that will be deleteddue to violation of rules, let's just read and respect the site's guidelines.

lara of course you are not paid if your discussion is deleted. why would they pay for something that broke the rules? read the rules learn them and follow them then no nmore deletions.

When we start discussions against the rules of Mylot the discussions get deleted. I think you should once again go through the rules here because not only you will loose the money but those who responded too will loose. I think you may have got an email from admin informing you about your discussion getting deleted.

dear Aja you need to read the guidelines if you have not before and the dos and dont's of making discussions as you have had some deleted as you must have broken one of the rules. do read them so you know what to avoid. mylot admins will send you a notification explaining why it was deleted in your email so open it and read it. then remember not to do that one again. I know the feeling but really its up to you to read that information as when you joined muylot admins sent you the links to the information you needed to learn,. that way you will not have those unpleasant findings again.just learn the few rules and you are all set., happy mylotting.

Check your email and you will find notifications from myLot informing you of which activity was deleted.
Then check here to avoid it happening in future:

HI diana, its true that if that discussion is deleted then he has the information on mail but sometimes it does not display in profile page, i mean if he is searching that discussion on profile page, then it may be missing from profile page and existing somewhere else.

Another odd thing that happened to my discussion was that, i couldn't find it in the list of my profile, but when i searched the hot topics, it was there and i was able to reply to some of the people's post there. after that, i never found that discussion again. :(

Hi Aja, if one or more of your discussions are missing from your 'Discussions I've started' section of your profile, then it means that it has been deleted by the admins. Deletion happens when a discussion violates the guidelines.
www.mylot.com/o/guidelines.aspx
If your discussion is deleted, you will receive a notification in your email as to how that discussion violate guidelines.

I also experienced this before when I was new here. It was deleted by the admin because I violated their policy. Check your email. They will send you a notification if they deleted it. Have a nice day ahead!
