We all will agree more than earnings or anything else we love mylot because this is a honest paltform with honest bunch of people around. When the new version of mylot pcame it feels so happy to see the old friends. But some people are trying to post whatever they want. I just saw someone posting about some kind of home security system. There are other bunch of people who simply post without understanding anything at all. How do you react to these kind of posts?

I saw that as well. There was actualy two spammers in the duration of a few minutes. That makes me sad. Unfortunaley they just don't understand that they are wasting there own time. I reported them and messaged them, But they don't seem to be the turn a new leaf kind of people.

Actually when I saw that I felt so bad. Without understanding anything they are just posting. They are not only wasting their time but making the whole environment filthy.

Some people abuse the rules on purpose, others either have not read or do not understand the rules. In all cases, you should report them first so that Admin can deal with them. His decision is final and very fair. If you think that the person has not read the rules or is not aware of them, then you should try to tell them where they have gone wrong so that they can learn to put it right and not do it again. You should try to be kind and understanding when you do this. Imagine how it would be for you if you were struggling with English (which is usually the case with this kind of person). There is little point in leaving a response on the discussion, since it's likely to be deleted quite quickly if it really is a violation. If possible, try to find one of their earlier posts, especially one where they were given the link to the Guidelines, if possible, and post a friendly warning there.

I have reported those before that I felt were guilty of braking the rules. I figured if the discussions wer in violation, that it is up to the dmins to take care of it. We should always report soimethint that doesn't look right. I think by reporting them, it will help others realize that they will receive the same thing, if they violatee the rules. I might stop the violations, I hope, but then some probably don't care anyway, and will do it just to be doing it.
