I have noticed a surge lately of people who are stealing other peoples comments and reposting them in other questions where the answer doesn't even make sense, i have reported all of them that i find and i'm going to devote this question to listing the NAMES of the people who do this. There are two in this one thread i just read, it's disrepectful of the users here and a violation of MyLot. Let's start this. Look out for "RONAKV" and i could be wrong but "VINAYKANT" i think might as well, or else they don't know how to read a question before they post. o_O Post the others here as well.

Yeah I already reported one a few minutes ago! It may have been one of the people you mentioned! Why do people do that! They can just make up some jibberish to start a discussion but instead copy someone else's.....The old mylot didn't have all these people doing that!

I think i have found another, i say that because they posted a comment having to do with a child, but it was a completely different problem than the person posted about. I suspect another cut and paste. "SAMDEEP"

I've seen an increase in people complaining about it and I hope they are reporting the abusers! Plagarism should never be tolerated. I honestly don't know if any of my answers have been copied and pasted by others. I just haven't noticed.
I know I will sometimes copy and paste my own responses to similar questions and make changes as needed but, since it is my own post to start with, that is not plagarism. I would never, ever copy someone elses! If I don't know the answer or choose not to answer, I move on. To me, copying someone else is cheating and is very low...it is so wrong that I would never do it!
Please, report those that do it! I know I will!

Wow! I can't believe it! The next question I opened after posting this had a copy and paste response! The cheater posted it word for word right under the previous answer. I hit the report button and filled in the box. I will watch to see if the duplicate gets removed.

The more people reporting these cheaters the better. It has really been out of control lately. Hopefully if we all work together we can stop it from happening so much.
Another cheaters name is LIZHAO, I posted in this discussion about them http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/359551.aspx.

you may want to add this one too:

i got 2 or 3 posts from this user today. it looks like they checked for new user posts and since i had opened a few new discussions, it's very easy for them to just copy and paste 3 or 4 times after each of my new discussion posts, since they can access thema ll from my home page. they must be doing it this way with everyone. it's the fastest way to find a post that needs posting to's ;)

Daoussis is a CHEATER!
this person is not a cut and paster...he reworded the question to make it a male version of the female version. a woman started the question about her bf and he re worded it to make it about his gf!

Good for you. I have noticed some and have reported them too, but I can't remember their names now. As I come across more I will try to come back to this thread and add their names.

WOW i must be an idiot i had no idea that, that could be done, i guess that is why on some of my discussions that their answer is not even what i asked, or complete gibberish?? So when that happens then someone has copied anothers post and i should report it, is that correct??? Sorry but i really am a computer idiot, i only know 2 things about computers and thats e-mail and Ebay, lol!!!

I thought at first that perhaps the people that were posting gibberish were just complete idiots, but then in a couple threads i recognized the "gibberish" as the exact same post that someone else put in another thread. I've been reporting everyone of them that i come across, i have seen a couple deleted i think. :)

There are a lot of people here who's English is sketchy, that's OK. But if they don't know enough of the language to read and understand the rules, they shouldn't be posting.

yep. people are no longer creative. they love stealing ideas. i had posted a lot of questions before. and got surprised whenever i see my question asked by another mylot member.. just rephrased. but the idea is obviously from me. that's why i lost interest in posting questions. instead, i devote my time answering senseful questions. hehehe.

Well, I have been reporting people as well a lot lately, and marking a - when something just does not make any sense in someone's post. I feel it is not fair to those of us who are trying to Earn the right way on here. Wonder if they are all from the same country, and could it possibly be a group of people who know each other, or the same person with more than one name depending on what Computer he is on?

It is really irritating when you see those copied responses posted into discussions with that don't even relate to each other. people's is worried because they think they'll get paid and maybe they will be paid but overall they are messing around the whole enjoyment in discussions. if anyone can do something about this because only mylot and I'm just wondering why they have kept their eyes shut so far
