Tonight I have seen that mylot for some strange reason took 128 points from Margieanneart! Why on earth would they take away so many points from one of the best members they have? Her discussions are always good and unique! It makes no sense at all to me! I don't know if I will even stay a member if this is how the rules are going to change all the time! I am very upset over this!

The reason that happened, is because MyLot was cleaning and deleting posts. If I was attached to them, my rates went down. Don't be upset, sending you ( )'s.

I knew there had to be a good explanation for it, but I stupidly flew off the handle, I'm sorry sis. I am not upset anymore, just feel bad for jumping on the innocent.

I was just going to ask you if you found out what happened. I had been wondering about it myself. Huggers to you.

That's too bad, that is alot of points. I seem to loose a few points a day and I only make a few posts a day. From everything I have read in the past we loose points when discussions we have responded to are deleted. The positive is that we don't loose the money we have made on those posts.

Yes it is too bad, thanks,she has been having enough problems trying to get better over her foot injury. She is not the type to just sit! You almost have to super glue her to a chair to get her to sit still. I don't know what the problem is. Someone said maybe it was just a mistake? I hope so. Thanks for your response.

DeeBloomers, I have lost a few points today but nothing compared to this amount! Surely there is some kind of reason for this as in a fault along the way and it is a mistake. Hopefully the points will be returned or an explanation given! And a good one at that!

I know, it has to be a mistake. Sorry I lost it last night. I was just so upset. Hopefully it will be straightened out soon.

I hope it gets straightened out too. I just don't think it was fair.

Yes Sandie I am afraid it is true. Yes I know she is. With her foot out of action she has put alot of hours in on mylot. I thought it was a blessing,it was keeping her busy, but she is very upset over this. I hope it is a mistake too. I don't know if I am going to stick around or not. If people only knew how good and kind and honest my sister is, they would be a little upset too. I only got on it to please her, but seems like they change rules every other day? I can't keep up with it. I don't have time to waste if it is going to be like this. If they want to take points away, take them away from some the the gross discussions that I refuse to reply to. Thanks for your response Sandie.

Well I am not sur what is going on here at MyLot. I have only started a few disussions myself & I wasn't paying attention to the points part before. However, I have started 2 discussions tonight and I did not get ANY points for them. I always thought we got points for starting and replying. If this is the case, then I will only reply to posting and no longer start any. If I start to notice I am not getting points for responding, then I am out of here.

I know, I am confused about it too, but I shouldn't have blown up as I did last night. I was just so angry. Margieanne is one of the best members we have and I just couldn't believe what they did and I know that she is just as confused as I am.

I know for some people 140points would be a big deal but judging from what points margie have right now, i dont think she is worrying about it. She's got over 10,000 right there. As long as her earnings won't be affected then I think there's no harm done. If it was 200posts minus 140 all of a sudden, then i think someone needs to explain to them why.

I know your right. I just flew off the handle and that is not like me at all. I don't know why, unless it has been because I knew they were having some problems and have been worrying about Margieanne?

This may be because of : taking part in old discussions. 2. Responding in 1 or 2 lines only. 3. responding in yes or no only 4. Having no quality postings.
