Beware of spammers on MyLot

I really don't understand why they are getting away with going against the MyLot rules and why their discussions are not being deleted. The newcomers must not read the guidelines that members are not allowed to put links in their questions or ask for referrals unless the links are in the responses. I don't want to be the mylot police and get into that because I can't spend time telling each and every one what they're not supposed to do. I mean, who am I to tell anyone what to do. It seems like it would take forever, so I just hope they find out about abiding by the rules somehow. As far as friends, I'll be a friend to whoever asks me, but I'm not gonna fall for the referral link trick. LOL

Hello VKXY62..... Report them......posting links to sites that are competing with mylot are against mylots policies. One reason for asking someone to add you to their friends list is to connect with people with similar interests, such as stamp collecting or photography. Even so, I would check their profile and discussions before deciding. Tom

Yes, I will add my 2 cents to yours and say that I have gotten similar friend requests. I too, reject them. I wonder how they even get my user name as they usually have not responded to any threads which I have or even threads I started.

Although I've never experienced this, I can see what you mean. I'm very happy with my 30 odd friends, and have no intention af becoming a friend of someone with too many already. Everyone should ask tha question you pose before acepting a new friend.
