If I try to log in to mylot with my old username and password,would I be able to access all my activities ( discussions,responses,comments etc ) on the old version of the site?
A friend of mine says if I do so, it might result in deletion of my present account.
Is he right?
I was on mylot in 2011-2012.

Never mind, I found it. It is locked, but not banned, so you can still visit the profile and view your activity. You just won't be able to log in to it.

@Shivram59 I'll leave it locked, but won't ban it. If I ban it, all your content disappears and it may create continuity issues in the older discussions.

Just the slowness of the site as it formerly was,which is why I didn't used to be on here much.

The Guidelines say:
"Creating multiple accounts - Doing this to deceive or troll other members, talk to yourself, return to myLot after having been banned for Guideline violations, or attempting to defraud the earnings algorithm will result in immediate account termination and forfeiture of any accumulated earnings."
The correct thing to do is to send a PM to @goaskalice asking him to either close or lock your old account(s). When an account is locked, you would no longer be able to log in as that user but all of the activity would still be there; when an account is closed, all of the activity disappears.
Which of these accounts is yours? @ram9523 @else34 Neither of those seem to have been active in 2011-2012.

@rsa101 That's great.I had forgotten my old username and password.That's why I had to join the site with a new username and a new password.

@Aquitaine24 I'm also curiously looking for my discussions that I had started way back in 2011-12.

I do not think the present account would be deleted.Not in my experience anyway.

I am glad you are back at myLot. What kept you busy that you were not here for a long time.
