Discussions of old members

I agree Jaiho. I for one have experienced it once. My discussion was deleted, because i think the title was in a manner of asking that could be answered by yes or no. Thus, it's a poll and got deleted. Though, i think, Mylot notifies the respondents to that discussion that it was deleted.

jaiho: yes. even experienced members commit mistakes sometimes. there are so many active members. amidst them if a topic is not a siginificant one then no problem. But if the topic is a sensitive or interesting one it may be seen by many members. jaiho--again you have changed avatar. good.you want all the members to be vigilant to recognise you in different photos. good day.

SIMPLYD Yes. whenever a discussion is deleted the member gets a response, of course with the reason being cited. one of my discussion on internet browsers was deleted for the same reason. similarly whenever a response is deleted also we get a notification -- this time stating that the original question was deleted.

deazil thanks for agreeing with my view. Again many members feel it is not required. views differ. True nowadays deletion of discussions is less according to me --it may be because i respond in a few discussions or number of such deletions has come down considerably because members follow the guidelines.

hi ravi a newmember making 100 plus responses in a day, is that not a bi unusal if the person is like most also holding down a job?as in one hundred one line worthless responses they would get deleted and the person might have got banned.quality over quantity has always been mylots aim.

I do not suspect anything. things happen as they are destined to. let us accept what comes. Deletion takes place with or without other members reporting because admins do read our discussions/responses/ comments. Let us treat all members as our friends and if they report it is for good.

This member not appearing gained my attention because the member was very very active -- posting 100+ responses in a day and the member was a new member.

hi diana need shoulder to cry on no really I d o not as I have only myself to blame but after 35 responses I went to comment on the last one and my response just sat there. then I thought will maybe it already went through so checked started and no its no longer there. Ishould never have made it but I triedc to be careful I did not name names but somehow some people decided I was wrong and reported it for flaming or some such thing.I did not see it as flaming but I suppose it could engender flaming. so oldcer now wiser I guess although I feel stupid. I just saw a resp;onse that was unkind and built my discussion on we should all of us never assume things about a fellow user. this one responder really was good at underhanded insulting without making it too obvious. what I should have done was to report the response and not dared to touch a discussion about it as I must have been too brash. I just feel bad for all who resp;onded and lost their earnings. so learn from my errors and move on I g uess.

I am curious who is the new member that you are concerned about ravi. Whoever it was, admin has decided that we are better off without them and once again I am pleased to see that myLot care.When they ban a user it is for the benefit of the site and all of the users too.

Hatley aunty: Please do not worry about it too much. We will earn in future discussions. At the same be happy one your discussions is high rated discussion yesterday. smiling...yes. good.

ravi there are many reasons why accounts are banned, spamming, plagiarising, multiple accounts and trolling being some of them. We will never know, unless those users are our friends and they inform us or we happen to see for ourselves when they are abusing mylot and then see that they are gone.

I am sure it is something like that...I am not aware of vidyapraksh's account, did something happen ? The member I mentioned about must have been before you came here ,more than 3 years ago I suppose , not sure though..

KIRAN Yes. probably spamming may be a violation some of the deleted members were doing. I am not aware of the name you are mentioning. I have heard from Vidhyaprakash about his account. yes, periodically we should go through the friends list and revise it.

I assure you I am not a computer program.

Vidhyaprakash: I am sorry two of your accounts were deleted. You may be right that it is done by the computer based on program made. Then it become objective. Computer will not know A or B or C but go by the instructions given to it. I think your courier company works on Saturdays also? Here in Canada-- they collect the courier letters on saturdays and sundays but send them only on Monday to other destination. They have a system of collecting the post and not saying no on saturday and sunday also.

yes, Saturday is working day for us, but Sunday is compulsory holiday as we need a day to spend with family members

jehean You are from Canada. perhaps you have a lot of time to spare ( Canada is the third largest country in the world in terms of area!).How many discussions of yours were deleted in the recent last two / three months? how many responses were deleted during this period?

Mickie: yes. i now feel we should accept friend request from people who are interested in continuing as member. In this case what had happened is a mystery,

I saw your topic yesterday but didn't get any further than the notifier as I was involved elsewhere at the time. I didn't see how it evolved but I do remember thinking at the time that it was not like your ususal topics and that simething must have upset you to have made a discussion about it. Another lesson learnt I guess and I'm sure you will find more topics that will stay up, just like you usually do

Hatley aunty: Yes., I think I also responded in that discussion not once but a few times. The concerned member also responded. pl do not worry aunty.

I'm sorry Hatley I just wanted to respond on that one because you sounded upset. I don't mind if I resonded and now it is gone

silverfox: It is because of expectations. Some people want to earn very much in one day. Mylot is a place that cannot give money more than what it can. Also it is not right for us to expect it to give more than what it can. So they come stay here for a day or two find they earn in cents while they want in dollars and also they get some other job or other interesting things and they go away. I consider this a pastime for me to spend sharing knowledge, ideas, experiences and also earn some amount.

alberello: thanks for your response. yes, you seem to believe that members should taken responsibility in reading the guidelines and following the same fully. you are right guide lines tell us what a member should do and should not do. For example just now i received a notification a discussion on buying a laptop for $100 was deleted. I am unable to understand the reason-- was it due to repetition or not a relevant one.

Yes. With a view to achieving this one or two discussions have been started recently by our friends -- which state what are the things we should do as member and we should not do as member. Also there is another discussions on what are the changes you want in mylot..... good day

Gracia: welcome to mylot. I am not sure whether you were having mylot account earlier. it is because you have given response with more clarity and understanding. I am not worrying. Once my discussion was deleted and the reason -- contest or poll like discussion was given in the email sent to me. I thought if this is known to others also --they may remember the nature of discussion I started and the reason for deletion.

Oh well, Thanks i was also a newbie but i think i understood the rules very well. Some other new member probably violated the regulations because they did not too time to read the FAQ. Sorry to know about the deletion on one of your discussion. :(

missjahn why should your name be lost? in case you want to close this account then it is ok? i will get to know because when I may not have the name of deleted member in the list of friends. I do not know the reasons. perhaps violation of guide lines may be the reason. hope you are doing well in studies also.

hello there sir ravs if the reason why their account was deleted because committed violation, whew, that violation is so tough to consider that it had to end that way. ahm, my name would be lost, maybe because am gonna delete it, whoa! but i believed that its them who deleted their accounts like that, that is their names were gone in the wind. for whatever reasons too, like you, i am not certain of... yes, thanks i am doing well with my studies and you take care too. God bless
