If you read the rules of the site ... it's pretty cut and dry that posting links to other pay sites, adverts or anything of the like is against the rules.
http://www.mylot.com/o/guidelines.aspx
Please do not:
• Post any links promoting other affiliate programs
• Request donations, post charity requests, petitions for signatures, chain letters or letters relating to pyramid schemes, advertising or solicitations for funds, or mass mailings.
And another that pertains to people who join the site just to spam the boards with their referral links:
• Make multiple posts on the same subject for the purpose of getting attention paid to your issue.
Do you ever stop and post things on peoples threads if they are in violation of the TOS (terms of service)?
Do you ever report people who are doing nothing more than spamming the same advert?
Even though I know that most of the time the treads will get deleted and my post count will go down, I;d rather lose some posts than have people take advantage of the system and the users.

Unfortunately, it seems like there are a lot of people on myLot who really don't pay attention to the rules. I generally just ignore the posts where people are trying to get referrals, rather than read them. If I do stumble across one, however, I will at least downrate it, if not report it.
I think the better way to go about getting referrals through myLot is when people are asking for other money making sites, give them suggestions, and offer to give them a referral link via private message if they are interested in the site you suggest.

Hello freak369
Yes I am aware of this rule and never post referral links kind of things on mylot. I never reply to the people's post who used to talk about other sites to join with referral links inside their post .. I found their post as most boring post on mylot and instantly close the post .. without reading it in full .. Even there are some members who used to message me with their referral links to join other sites and all I do is simply ignore their mails and give them no reply. I really don't wish to join any other site except mylot .. and I have got everything in mylot .. so why should I go in for any other site ?? I stick to the rules of mylot and hope I will never violate any single rule because I don't want to be out of mylot.
