Yea, I suspected this long ago, so I clicked to delete but archived the confirmation email so that I would have it should I want to fully delete it.

In the OFF chance they might refuse to acknowledge my dissent.

I have made it a point to never get a MySpace account. It has always been clear from the onset that this site is unreadable and useless. Luckily it did not take long for useful professional sites to come along like Facebook and LinkedIn. Thanks for the funny article on what I have been “missing”.

I deleted mine long before ”delete your myspace page” day. I thought I was the only one who could take a stand against the childish drama and dysfunctional behavior it aids in normalizing. For everyone who tries to defend myspace or facebook:

1.) Why DO you need to keep in contact with everyone from your past? People didn’t in the decades before myspace and they somehow survived and were more than happy.

2.) Do you really think you have that many friends? Do you really need X number of friends to virtual chat with and comment all day with in order to validate yourself?

3.) Just because there are 40 zillion users on the damn site doesn’t mean there aren’t 40 zillion users who don’t have a personality disorder.

4.) Chill out ladies and gentlemen. Live your f’ing life! You will get a lot more out of it your life getting off of the computer and remembering who you are and being happy with the friends who you do keep in contact with. It’s a beautiful life and a beautiful world and it was long before myspace and will be long after myspace.

Usually when you do a search (you can do this without logging in) on an email address, if they are NOT a member, you get “no results found”. If they ARE a member, a box pops up with some of their info, that you can then click.

Now, do an email search of a known deletee, and this comes up:

“Search results for xxxxxxx@xxxxx.xxx”

But with no information whatsoever (no clickability) – the email used to create the myspace account APPEARS to remain active, giving the impression that the person is still a member.

From one social network to another….

If yallz were to claim myspace sucks… (I saw Simon Owens is in Facebook. And I do admit that the birthday reminder is annoying.) then what makes facebook rocks? To receive application requests everyday from Facebook, isn’t it just as annoying chore>? Just curious.

Is anti-”something” some sort of emerging pop trend culture now on this virtual world? Someone kindly fill me please.

Cancelled today (sorry I was moving to another country and so it was hard to cancel on the 30th). Yay to all the belated cancelations!!!! Remember, it’s never too late to run run run run screaming from endless bombardments by advertisers who are making a buck off of you keeping in touch with your friends. You are betta than that sistas & bruthas!!!! Suck it, Myspace!
