What is going on with some of the members here lately?

I have heard about this but haven't seen it so outright yet. I have felt some people had the weirdest discussions lately and they had contradictions. It is sad because it will make members stay more within there friend circle and not branch out more to ones we don't know in case they are being deceptive. I will have to check more profiles for people I don't know more now. I used to see discussion like If you were a ... what would you do? I knew they weren't a ... but just put it out there along with 100 other discussions just like it. I didn't stay friends with that person for sure. Hope it goes away soon. I hardly ever have time to get here anymore and don't want to get the junk, but actually chat with friends. Vicki

Is it possible that some are typos (highly unlikely I know) or maybe its more than one person sharing the account..LOL I dunno..I'm trying to be fair here...go with it its rare LOL... Seriously though the only reason I can think of is either they really need that "penny a post" OR they REALLY need psychological counseling LOL

hi there! i was caught off guard there and started checking myself...lol you see, i may have posted stuff now that i married, but i still post writings from when i was single. sometimes, i indicate that i wrote that piece several years back, but sometimes i don't, so i guess that makes people wonder, huh? but not gender changes, okay. lol anyway, sorry for that. if given the chance again, i wil really indicate when i wrote the piece. thanks and God bless! :-)

Because they are stupid Sweetie We have had them before and they know that if they write about stuff like that People will respond because there are so many good Members here who feel for those People I only respond to Friends discussions now as I was falling for all that to much so I stay away I know there are genuine ones out there but I am sorry I fell for it to often

I imagine some are too unfamiliar with the language to be able to make a coherent discussion that will elicit responses...so they copy and paste discussions from other sources as though they are the author. sadly these are usually emotional or tragic dilemas as they garner the larger replies - but these upset us more when found out because we invested our concerns, compassion and assistance - only to be what we think is laughed at. still we can take heart because someone who might be facing a similar situation as the original discussion portrays can be assisted and comforted by your efforts.

I'm not really sure why people do that..all that the people that I have met on mylot.com and they have all tried to help me with all of the questions I have had...so I don't see why anyone would want to take advantage of any of the people on mylot.com....To answer another question you had i don't know why people put things from different peoples point of view...I think that if you ask a question it should be something that everyone can gain something from!

To some people that penny post is worth a lot I guess. They manage to figure out how to cut and -paste, then plagiarize discussions from other forums, never bothering to keep things consistent. Some that I have met never even blush or honor your responses, until they get reported so much they get banned. Then they probably just come back as someone else.

In all actuality I don't look at others pages too often. Especially ones that aren't on my friends list. I just respond. There's way too many pages to look at each one I respond to. Especially with dial up access. HAHAHAHA!! HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

I don't know why people do things like that. I guess all they care about is the money they are making. I guess they just try to make more by telling lies and acting like other people. At least we do still have some honest people like you and many others here though.

I guess they don't have a real life or experiences that they can share. They can only invent topics.I pity them.

It is taking advantage of mylotters but i can tell you why they do it, this is just my thoughts i could be wrong but i think they just make up stuff just to start a discussion..It does not seem right but i do believe that they do it...I have caught things like that before with certain people..I even had a person tell me once that what they said they just made it up because they felt it would make a good discussion..They sent me a private message..I did not respond because what could i say, i was shocked..That person is no longer on mylot thank goodness...I mean anyone can sit and think up some out landish story, it would be a lie but all they are looking for is something to discuss so they can make money..I feel sorry for those kind because they are only hurting themselves in the long run, and as they make up stuff and lie they are just digging the hole of deception deeper and deeper....

I saw some of these, the first one being that he got his mother-in-law pregnant. I then read some of the responses and saw the responder that busted him. From there I looked at the person's profile and saw these other discussions that are in question. I didn't bother responding to any of them because to me it is a waste of time to do so. It sounds like this person just wants to get people on here riled up with his stories (which are most likely made up). Maybe he gets off on it, who knows?

As much as I hate to have to say it, ctry, I have been "touched" by some people here on myLot lately that made me go away with the feeling that I needed a good bath. I don't know where these creeps are coming from, but they must have an agenda. I think it goes in cycles -they have to try everyone's patience to get a rush. I don't take kindly to rude or ill-mannered people who don't know where to draw the line. I really would prefer these people not even respond to one of my discussions. My feelings have been bruised and that is why I have been staying away -but, no more. I'm tired of these sickos and I refuse to just lay down and take it any longer.

I have to admit that when I first join MyLot my fiance and I use to share my user name. I didn't have a paypal account when I first joined and wasn't sure if I was really interested in staying for long so my fiance said that I could just use his. We have both posted under this name at one time or another. Sorry if it was confusing for anyone. He has since gotten his own user name.

I have to say that i have found that one aswell and i have also just read a discussion where a lady has admitted that she has lied in nearly every discussion that she has wrote, but i say good on her because at least she has been honest and admitted it thou

These must be very sad lonely people who have no life in their world so have to make up a fantasy world. It is a shame that they con others into trying to give an honest response to a non existing problem.

I think those people just try to get as many responses as they can. I dont see much point in lying. Its better to be honest as you can be, or avoid questions you dont want to asnwer rather then make thigns up. Its hard to keep track of lies upon lies!!

I noticed that recently with one mylot person and thought this person was telling a lot of crap so i stopped answering her/his/their discussions and deleted them from my list of friends lol

I guess they are just bored and have nothing else to write about. It's pretty silly if you ask me. I don't understand why someone would pretend something that is not true. I will start paying more attention because I haven't noticed anything weird like that yet. Have a great day.

I think some people just post anything here just to get their numbers up. Some people just don't care what they put here, they just want to make money. I just take it all as a grain of salt, so to speak, and just ignore the ones I have nothing to say to. I really don't care if people are lying or not, as long as I can respond to it. Is that not why we are all here, to make money. Yes, it is nice to just enjoy the site and read a lot of other people's opinions, but really, when it comes down to it, we all joined at some point to make money. So I just let those people alone and I just post where and what I can.
