Today I saw many response by someone who seems spamming, she just responding pointless response, one example is she respond "Wow".. Do you think it worth a lot? Or just a spam? Ive tracked her responses to different discussions and she is totally spamminng disussions! 1 to 2 words.. she also respond "Happy Birthday." just 2 words? oh perfect! How grateful mylot to pay that kind of responses.. If reported her multiple times, and hoping myLot admin will do something regarding on it, she is here to spam and not to respond or discuss sensible things,

I think there are whole posts that are utterly worthless - a lot of them - but what this person is doing is not such a crime. If somebody says it's their birthday what's WRONG with replying 'Happy Birthday'?
Report all you like and if these things don't get removed then you know that what she's doing isn't breaking the rules. Meantime, why not focus on your own interactions and ignore this other person.

There are some who still believe that they earn from their own postings (discussions, responses and comments). The Guidelines prohibit "Discussions, responses or comments that offer little or no value" so, I have no doubt that these one or two word responses are likely to be removed by Admin, if detected or reported.
As things stand, the person who posts such worthless responses loses nothing if they are deleted (because nobody earns anything for their own posts) and nor does the person whose discussion it is (because earnings are not deducted once given).

Yep I just saw it from the guidelines, and I keep on reporting her responses.
"Discussions, responses or comments that offer little or no value - Answers like "I don't know" or "I don't care" help no one and will be removed."
I hope admin will do more from this user because she keeps on doing that..

It depends if they're short responses but relevant to the discussion I'll leave it as that. It could also mean the discussion doesn't have much for the person to respond to maybe? Who knows!
I know I've written short responses not because I wanted to because I don't know what else to write but I want to write because I spent the time reading. Once in a while but I prefer to write more lengthier

I get that from someone a lot. It is always something like don't know, never heard of it, or something similar. I get irritated because it adds nothing to the discussion. I don't report because she seems like a nice person but I wish she had something worthwhile to say.
