I know there have been complaints of cut and pasters... and people who make nonsense topics etc etc.. but i stumbled across something rather amusing. I could be wrong, but i seen a copied and pasted answer that didn't make sense so i went to their profile and noticed that they mostly responded to one person's questions over and over so i read through some of those and realized that all the questions he was responding to were also cut and paste nonsense. I went INTO a couple of the questions and almost every reply was a cut and paste paragraph or story of something else. So basically it looks like the person has several or so accounts and tries to up the ratings of their own questions. I don't know if this is going to make sense to anyone =P But i thought i would share anyway.

although i'm thinking that "cicerone" may be the main profile.

You are right; that appears to be exactly what he is doing. Looks like he has been working hard at cheating. I noticed one user left a reply comment letting him know that he has been reported for multiple postings of the same comment. He also seems to like to post jokes on discussions not related to them.

Yes definately report it to Mylot. I have found a couple myself and reported them. I also leave them a comment letting I know that I reported them in hopes others will read it and also report them.
The more we report the cheaters the less there will be. I find it very annoying that so many people feel the need to cheat. Even cheating, I don't think they are getting rich..lol But it ruins it for the rest of us honest people that are just trying to talk about our interests. I think 10% of the discussions lately are all about cheaters. So at least more people are being made aware and the cheaters know we are reporting them.
