This is common when using some phones. It may not appear that you are copying and pasting but, actually, this is what the phone does. The text you write goes into a buffer and when you post it, the phone pastes it into the text box. Copying and pasting is restricted until you have a user rating of 500 to guard against plagiarism. By the time that you reach 500, it is assumed that you know and care enough about the site not to plagiarise! MyLot is, in any case, designed to be used primarily from a computer browser because it is not very easy to make descriptive, good quality posts from a phone.

Your User Rating increases for every discussion you take part in. Your earnings will increase when you make good quality discussions, responses and comments. Read the FAQs under "Earnings and Payment Information" and "User Rating and MyLot Reputation" for all the information on those topics.

Ahh..those old days..lol..I used to get this problem till i reached 500. And this is one heck of an irritating problem. What i used to do was disable the dictionary while typing and type each single letter. I don't know why but it worked most of the times. Other thing that i did was refresh the page before i started typing. As per me, that will create a new temporary session in your browser and then you can type it before the session terminates.

hi welcome to mylot sanahseeb the phone is doing the pasting so you need to get to your computer and use it for your work instead of using your fancy cell phone, The comp uter thought you were pasting but it was your phone that got you in trouble. so stick to your computer after this . [ [

Thanks for your comment.. But the problem is solved now... It was showing error, only when I was posting simultaneously many posts, one by one.. If I jus give 2-5 min gap between the posts, I am not getting that error... thanks. god bless.. :)
