HOw many of you have come across spammers on mylot who'll just type anything into discussions that u've posted to make money? I've met quite a few. And the worst thing is... IF too many such messages apear in your discussion... there's a good chance that it'll be deleted because it's too irrelevant. What can be done to stop this? Feel free to express your frustration at such people, or share your experiences and solutions please. Please reply only if you are genuinely interested and not to spam. :(.

I have come accross many spammers since I have joined MyLot and what I do if it isn't to bad I will give a - But if they seem like they didn't even read the discussion and just put a crazy none related respond I have given a ! and reported them. Before the end of the month they are usually deleted so they really don't make the money they think they will MyLot wants us to help report people like that as they can't catch all of them...

Thanks for the info.. I actually though that the ! was for any serious offence like using abusive language of offending one's sensibilities. from now on I'll report such users. Thanks again :)

Yes I come across this from time to time, but then I just leave a - rating if it is out of this world. But if it relates in at least some way then I usually just leave it alone. THANKS!
