i happen to hav an acount in orkut and apparantly a guy who is a total stranger came to my scrapbook and posted the links to register in mylot with his referral id! i mean he is a total stranger and i havent spoken to him ever! so i told him not to scrap into my scrapbook as i would like to have some privacy and i dont like strangers scrapping me.... his reply was: "u cant say like that,unless it is implemented by orkut. .its not your space,it belongs to orkut. u didnt read the TOC fully before signing up? " there was no way he was backing down and i didnt understand y he was being so mean! he also said "wen u join a social networking site,u expect complete privacy,buddy?" he just didnt want to listen to what i said!and then he sent me lots and lots of scap of his bloody mylot referral link! i am getting so angry!!! i dont want to lower myself to his level people!! this has made me so shaken up... how can i stop him? and y is he like this? this is his profile:http://www.mylot.com/sean1986 and i thought u were not supposed to advertise your links continuosly in sites like orkut!! do i report him? he is still scrapping me full time!!

hi Your problem is a straight forward case of spamming. As the above guy said, just ignore him from the options on his profile. Also mark his profile as bogus and ask all your friends to do so for you. Also let the mylot developrs know that this guy is spamming you. To send your complain just send a Private message to the uer "mylot" (without the quotes). If possible take a screenshot of your scrapbook and send it to mylot. I am sure both orkut and mylot will take action against him. All the best buddy :).

NO its not cowardly, after all you are using your legal rights. If you could get him off orkut and mylot, then I thnkn you will do a lot more damage to him. As you said you dont want to fall to his level, so try the legal option thats at the highest level :). Make it an unfogettable experience for him :).
