I am so upset with what cheating members are doing! I was just about to reply to an interesting topic (Pyramids, Yogic Hopping and though) when I googled the quote "Yogic Hopping" to see what exactly it is. I immediately saw a link to the following webpage, which had the SAME EXACT discussion that a myLot cheater posted! Infact, the quote was on a message board forum posted back in April 2006. The myLot cheater posted this just 49 minutes ago.
Read the EXACT post on the original website:

Why in the world would this user do that... then seeing how many posts he has that are "science/history" related. They may all be fake! :(
Cheaters are just ruining this for us good, legit, and honest members.

Don't get yourself upset mssmith, there are a lot of genuine people in here and the cheaters will be found out soon enough hopefully!

I hope they get rid of them. That user had over 400 posts.

This is happening quite a lot, and I have seen several posts that have been copied word for word from Wikipedia.
This is not only disappointing for the honest members who are receiving pointless and false responses, but could pose a problem for Mylot on the grounds of copyright or plagiarism.
Fortunately, a lot of effort is being put in by Mylot to stop this kind of thing and hopefully it will soon disappear.

I wish there was more we could do to get rid of the bad ones out of the bunch.
