myLot's admins review all of the abuse reports. If the discussion, response, or comment reported does violate the guidelines, it will be deleted.
Whether or not a user gets banned for violating the guidelines really depends on the circumstances, from what I've seen. There have been users with 500+ activity ratings who've gotten warnings for plagiarism, while some newbies who have started doing the same thing right off the bat have been banned immediately.
Generally speaking, however, the only users who get banned are those who repeatedly violate the guidelines. Accidentally breaking the rules a time or two is typically not enough to have your account terminated.

You mean is it okey to make a discussion or comment to a discussion against the guidelines? The admin just deleted it after all.

There is nothing at all wrong with commenting on a discussion that violates the guidelines.
If you start a discussion that violates the guidelines, myLot will send you a notification email after they delete it. The notification will tell you what the violation was. You should pay attention to the reason that they give you, and try to avoid starting discussions like that in the future. :)

All our reports sent to admin and he will check it for the reason, if the reason is right and the discussion is a violation he will delete the discussion. Check out the faq and terms of this site and follow it while creating topics. Avoid creating violations in mylot. Too many violation will result in account cancellation.

Reading through your comments on this topic I think you are still confused about some things.
In the Guidelines:
http://www.mylot.com/o/guidelines.aspx
we are all asked to help out admin and report anything which is a violation.
All of the posts, even our own, have the ! button which we can use to report anything, even our own posts (for example when they get posted twice due to a connection error).
Staff here have a badge which says that they are admins while the rest of us are just users but we should all help out so that mylot stays the legitimate site that it has been for so long, free from spammers and plagiarists.

I just checked your blog. The post concerning myLot contains incorrect information and I suggest that you correct it. If you believe all that you have posted there then you will never get decent results here and your referrals will have the wrong idea about how things work too.
- Respond to a discussion- Post a response at least 4 or more lines with quality. Tag your post with the keywords. Each post you earn $.01 for your account.
There is nowhere that myLot tell us to type 4 or nore lines and we do NOT earn 1 cent per post. Indeed there is NO fixed rate for anything here at all!
- Start a discussion of your interest. When someone responded to your discussion you earned
We earn NOTHING at all when others respond or comment on our posts. We ONLY earn for our own acitivity NOT for what others do here!
Users who entice others to join a site through FALSE information are no better than scammers

hi art719inoyguide Just because you report a discussion as abuse does not mean it will be deleted unless admins thinks it needs to be. If you report a discussion for
abuse several times nothing will happen unless you do it over and over and
over.for one thing your name is not given so they will not know anyway who made
the report. I doubt if anyone will do this over and over. Most will be careful to note whether or not it is real abuse.

You mean the admin don't know who are the members reporting that the discussion is abusive? They have to credit the member isn't it. They helped the admin after all. Just my opinion. If the member worth it then why not.

If you report abuse in a discusstion the will look at it and determine if it is or isn't then a warning is giving to both people or just one depending on what is going on and then if it continues both will not be allowed back on mylot again their url's will be blocked. Normally it never reaches to the leave of someone getting kicked out and when a discustion is reported half of the time the post with abuse on it is deleted from the discussion but some times the whole thing will be deleted.

So, it is also the fellow members of Mylot who marked the discussions abuse. I have read some discussion and they responded that it is abuse but some discussion just marked exclamation point just like this!. I just likely respond that the discussions is abusive rather than that just marked it abuse. The one who made a discussion that is abusive not notice by just marking it !.

art719pinoyguide we users do not put the exclamation point there its part of the three rating things plus minus or report. they are put there so we can rate the posts plus or minus or report as abuse. the exclamation point is not put just on some posts but on all so we can report a bad post.WE do not put the exclamations points on there, they are always there and it is not to mark abuse as they are on all posts. wherever did you get such a frightening idea. mylot does not do things like that.The only way the report sign is used is to report what we feel is insulting or flaming, the word abuse does not even enter the picture.so we do not mark anything abuse,those exclamation points are on all the posts just to be used if necessary.You need to really reread the guidelines and theFAQ's as you have a lot of mistaken ideas about mylot and too just because I would report what i felt was a bad post that does not mean that the admins will delete it on mysayso. instead they read or reports then read over the post and they decide whether or not its a bad post.Nobody I repeat just marks som e posts as abusive. whoever told you this is really confused and should read the mylot in formation to get things righted and not go around spreading false information.shy bear I am sorry but your in formation is also not quite correct. WE who report using the exclamation sign are anonymous so mylot admins does not know who sent in the report.If you have ever reported some post you wil notice you never have to give your name at all.the admins has never ever scolded me for making a report as I do not believe they had my name at all. the report is anonymous.
