Did MyLot Delete My Post?

Woah! I posted something earlier about Mylotting while enjoying my snack but why is it that I couldn't find it any longer? It's not that it magically disappeared right? I just don't understand why. Please enlighten me. My post was never offensive so I just don't get why it was gone. Why MyLot? I followed the rules here. This is so confusing.

Sorry, I have not read it and I cannot help, but you should better write a PM to @GoAskAlice to ask the reason than to complain here, this discussion being also at risk to be deleted soon.

@Bluedoll I wonder what is happening to you since a few weeks? Since you deleted your avatar you do not seem to be the same.

@topffer I wasn't complaining or anything, I was asking because I'm new here and I read the rules and guidelines before I started writing and participating discussions and just like what I said, there's nothing offensive about what I wrote and some mylotters saw and responded to what I wrote as well. They saw it.

@Bluedoll This is more like a puzzle post. Lol I'm not a "complaining" person so I was only looking for some answers. Want to know if others experienced this too.

It probably came under the heading of "Discussions, responses or comments that offer little or no value". Was there even anything to discuss?

@Ladera You cannot take 'what everyone is posting' as a guide! Although Admin sees many of the posts here, he cannot see all of them and it's quite possible that some very similar ones might remain for a while, at least. It's important to remember that MyLot is a discussion site and if a post is not likely to generate intelligent discussion, it is always at risk of being removed (whether or not it has some responses, by the way).

That post was pretty same as what everybody's posting here so that's why I was curious why it's gone.

it wasn't a one line post was it? those get deleted sometimes. oh...and sometimes if people do not see the post to be of any added value...like there is nothing in the post to be discussed or commented on...they report it. Might be one of these if nothing else fits.

Hi @ms1864 , Reporting doesn't mean that post will get deleted. It's just a way to draw moderator's attention. If moderator think, post is valid, then post will be live even if it received 10000 reports. Hi @ladera - This might help.
This is where you will find out what kinds of behavior are accepted and unaccepted on myLot. When in doubt, remember the Golden Rule!

No it wasn't definitely. I don't know because there were mylotters who responded to that post and I am pretty sure that post was the same as what the others are posting so that's why I am very confused.

I have experienced this today and I don't even know why. I am also searching for an answer.

Maybe they randomly delete things I don't know.
