To be honest, I've had one twice. Deleted it the first time due to some issues with... stuff. And a second time because it's getting a bit retarded. Everyone I had on my friends list were people I already knew and had their phone numbers. So I am myspace free for about a month or two now. I hate it and will never go back.

Anyone else hate that god forsaken land of vile pit spawn?

I've avoided myspace because I've read some articles on employers searching for background information on people applying for positions. I want to protect my "home life" from my "work life" so I prefer SG. Since you have to pay-to-play I feel that SG offers me a bit more protection (I know it's not complete) from random people looking me up online.

I also hated Myspace. As previously mentioned, most of the friends that I had on there I was already friends with. And the few people that I did meet from there werent interested in being friends, they just wanted to promote their product, their band or themself.
And does someone REALLY have 45,351 friends??? Come on.

That actually made me laugh out loud to myself!

To answer the original post, yeah myspace is something that I don't ever plan on joining. Good post by the way. I was beginning to think that I was a freak for not having it.

I fucking hate myspace! I was pressured into it by my friends. SO now I have a profile that says nothing about me. It just has a picture of me and a link to SG.
The whole friend thing kinda reminds me of kindergarten when you would give other kids a thumbs up if you were their friend and a thumbs down if not. I kinda feel the same way about the SG friendship thing. Thats why I have so few friends I guess. I'm interested in people who offer me something, I don't want to have to sift through all my friends journal entries to get to the ones I actually care about.

Plus myspace is owed by Rupert Murdoch and that guy's a douche. puke

I have a page now and have connected to a few people I knew in high school that I haven't talked to in years. I like that aspect of it.

I wish all my friends were on sg so they could put up naked pictures of themselves. That would be cool.

I neither love or hate the site but it has some uses.

I actually joined like 3 years ago in order to hook up with bands since I was promoting at the time. Another promoter told me it was a good idea. At that stage in the game you could actually find somebody who wasn't already in your "extended network and all the personalized homepage shit wasn't there" Shit there are people there now with more friends on their list than the total number of members when I joined.

If I remember correctly it was full of SG ads when I joined too.

looked at it, actually filled out info and signed up but never got into it.

all the pages i saw were hard on the eyes, and while you probably could make decent connections there and do nice little things w/it in the beginning, it just looks like a mess now. it's just another promotional tool, and i don't need to wade thru other people's junk and then figure out that they're not that cool anyway. if i did journal-y type things, i'd simply do it here. i wouldn't even care if my friends didn't like or approve of the SG nakedness, i'd just do it here.

i would, however, like to have had started myspace. those f@#!ers are making money.

I've said it before. Myspace is a tool. If you hate it you either don't know how to use it or object to use it and I think most people are suffering the first option skull

plain and simple.. myspace is for people with no lives and who don't have real friends. so they just add random ass folks from around the world to leave comments like "your hot" and "OMG!! ROFL!".

in short that site sucks the asses of obese men and women everywhere.

I was pestered into getting an account. That lasted all of a month. Maybe. IT NEVER WORKS!
And it's just silly. I don't want to talk to a bunch of random people from the internet. I can do that here. I don't need it to keep in touch with my friends, I can do that in real life. And I don't need to spend an hour a day deleting friend requests from lame nobody bands I've never heard of. puke

Myspace just totally creeps me out...you can find people by name and I don't like that. Oh yeah and it's free to any old dumb-shit.

I prefer the anonymity of SG any day!

I hate it. I have my own music. I don't want to listen to yours or your shitty band's. I don't want to try to read green on red text or beige on slightly lighter beige or something like that. I don't want to see pictures of you standing in front of your bathroom mirror with a camera in your hand. I don't like this whole idea of basically rating people's worth by the number of friends they have.

I do, however, like filling out boyfriend applications sarcastically, and if anyone could please find some and link them I would love you. I have an account, I'll send them in and everything.
