I have noticed there were new topics about travel here and there were 6 different names all are new users that have the same topic. I would mention the names, Hannue 27 from Thailand, stradetwal 29 U.S., babussetier 20 vietnam, fycbranch 22 vietnam, positionthing 25 vietnam, reemendaol 31 U.K. I did not wrote the two other names because In my opinion, there were but ONE person.
The title / subject is exactly the same as well as discussion details. Have you noticed them playing around here?

If new members are either cheating (by having multiple accounts) or anything of the sort Mylot will find out and take care of it....Periodically you'll find trolls and cheaters doing their thing but they always get busted in the end one way or another.

you're right! I just replied one of the post a while ago.. On the first post he said that he's a 12 years old male and it it's possible to be a pilot at that age, then another topic that she and his husband just got married and trying to figure out a place for their honeymoon. This is but THE SAME person.. what the hell is she or he talking about? He's annoying...

Admin counts on us to report abuse of the myLot TOS and guidelines. That is why we have the option for marking something !. The person who is reporting them is doing exactly the right thing. I have been here over a year, and from time to time have seen the similar things. They get banned quickly once they are reported.

I kinda noticed the strange travel topics all in a row like that! Hmm. Is travel really all that interesting that some many people talking about it? I am sure mylot has some safe guards for that kind of stuff!
Hey congrats on making it over 500! I was my goal to make it to there over the weekend but I got a littl side tracked. I'll be there soon enough. I hear one is able to do cut/paste at that level. Are there any more benefits?

Haven't noticed them due to the fact I've not been in for over a month. Thanks for bringing this to our attention though... this does need to be addressed and the members should be warned about it.

Julie, you need to ! these people when you notice them and report them to MyLot, instead of a discussion. By mentioning their names you may be going to get this discussion deleted. They are not playing, they are abusing the system. I have not seen them or I would have reported them. Good luck.

I have noticed these new topics too. I was surprised to have seen topics posted under countries of interest. Not that I do not want such topics because I love traveling but I think that whoever is responsible for this is practically spamming the site. I had the same suspicions like you do. I hope that something will be done about this.

I have not encounter that yet, but I think Mylot will notice that because that's one of the DON'T in their guidelines. There should be only one account per person. I hope it's just a coincidence.
