i could not find this when i sercn so what do you think of my space do you like it hate it or you think its dangerous and you do it anyway

fawkes_the phoenix I love your Mauraders avatar in your sig, t'is awesome!

As for the topic, I clicked I liked it. Aside from being a social networking site it's good to listen to music and find new artists and stuff like that.

I like it 2 but i also don't like it because there is always the chanch that you are being stalked or some on e got your info also i glad you like my avatar

i have my myspace and i fine no issues with it

there are things wrong with myspace but i think the good is more important than the bad
also without myspace i would be able to get messages from certain things like concerts and ping pong tournaments

so i think its ok

I have a myspace, but I hardly ever use it. I really only use myspace to keep in touch with friends that I don't see very much. There are pros and cons of myspace, just like everything else. With me, it's kind of a love/hate relationship. I don't hate it, but sometimes I don't like it. But, it is good for some things.

i like myspace. they say there are alot of online predators that kill you if you have a myspace but i think that's a bunch of bologna. As long as your not stupid enough to start talking to someone you don't know on myspace then you'll be fine. also just don't put what town you live in. it's that simple and myspace is perfectly fine!

myspace is not dangerous if you are smart about it.

Yeah I agree. I use myspace for friends and music only. Some of my friends going around adding random people coz they seem "cool", but thats when I think it can get dangerous. I never accept requests from people I don't know, nor do I put up my home address (etc.) and thats how you stay safe. I've had my own myspace for over a year now and nothing creepy has ever happened. Its cooler than MSN to chat with friends, so many people I know have one and its cool to hear about private shows and stuff from bands!

I have a myspace but i don't really like it, it annoys me when i'm trying to message my friends but they have so many videos on pictures and it freezes my pc.
I clciked its okay because it is useful to keep in touch with my friends now that i've left school but its annoying with the weirdos that add you and all the stuff people have on their profiles lol

I have one. I don't think it's this horrible thing people make it out to be. I'm not, like, insanely absorbed in it, though, it's okay.

I would delete it if I didn't get to communicate with friends I wouldn't talk to otherwise, or I didn't get the occasional fancy for it.

I have a myspace, if you want to see it, you can get the link in my profile. For the most part, it is just a way to pass around inside jokes with my friends. That and I like the graphic design aspect of it. I like playing with the code to make things I want. Programming is so much fun.

i have a myspace. its not true about the preditors. you can easily make your profile private and have nobody talk to you unless you know them or they know your surname. the people that get abducted had it coming. if they never took racy pictures and posted them, maybe they would have never been abducted. myspace is safe if you want to be safe. anyone could tell you to change your password every two months, but it only matters if you listen.

I have a myspace, and I don't think its bad at all. I'm 15 so I have my webpage on private, and I haven't had any suspicious "ADD ME"'s, and My mom has one to check on me.

I like myspace but I think people aren't thinking when they add people they don't know. I only add people who I know unlike some of my friends and people on the news complain about how dangerous myspace is but it's the person's fault for putting up too much information. I've had no problems whatsoever.

i have a myspace; i like it and i agree with everyone that said that it was good except for the people that add people they don't know..because its their fault that they added the unknown people and.or put too much info about themselves on it..i have my profile on private and i do not have my name or where im living..only i have my picture but the stalkers need names too..so i dont worry about that

I personally love myspace! I love having the ability to personalize it so much and to be able to talk to all of my friends. I have my myspace listed as my homepage in my profile if you want to see it as well.

I think myspace is okay. I have one that I only go on when people message me. I just have one to keep in touch with people that live a long way from me. The music on it is cool and stuff but I also think it's a place for stalkers too. That's why I don't go on it often. Probably once ever few weeks or when I want to update my profile.

I love the idea of having a place to express yourself and connect with friends, but MySpace is dangerous. You have no idea who is out there and what they might want to do to you. My advice for everyone out there is if you want a MySpace, get a MySpace. Just please, do not post photos of yourself on it or anywhere else on the web. Once they're on there, there is no way to get them back. People may copy and paste them somewhere else, so you have no idea where they're going. Just be smart about it, and I think you'll be ok. And we all know not to give our address out, right? Yeah, I thought so.

I agree with the above poster. ^^ I don't have a MySpace, I have a Facebook only because my friend persuaded me too, and according to her it's safer than MySpace and I hope she's right because otherwise I am just doomed for eternity but...that's about it.

myspace is ok. Depending how you use it, it is a cool thing to have. Their are many dangers, as with anywebsite, but as long as you are safe and responsicble and careful, it is perfectly fine.

I do have a MySpace althought to be honest I don't go on it that much. I think it is a good way to meet new freinds but with that of course comes a danger. I think as long as you don't give out any personnal information anyone should be okay.

i have a myspace and like it a lot. its easy to keep in touch with friends. i never add anyone that i have never met before or know. i think that its safe as long as you add people that you know. also, i think that its great b/c i get to catch up w/ people that i haven't talked to in yrs. like i found a friend of mine who moved to austrailia a couple of yrs ago and we started talking. also you should keep your profile on private that way only your friends can see your page.

Speaking as a Myspace obsessed person, I love it!!!!
Way to keep in touch with people I moved away from, friends I haven't seen in ages, and the ability to really tell the world who I am is just amazing!
And all that stuff about it being dangerous, honestly, are the "victims" fault. Responsible Myspace users should know that you shouldn't accept anyone that you don't know to be your friend. The smart thing to do is put your profile to private, and make it so anybody who wants to be your friend has to know your last name or email address.

If anyone you don't know messages you, just simply delete it.
I love myspace. Speaking as a Myspace Addict, you should check it.
Haha. Sorry couldn't resist.
I just love looking at pics of my friends too!

Love Always,
Molly.

I think that Myspace is a useful tool. It can help you keep tabs on people that you may not talk to or see often and it serves as an easy medium to stay in touch with friends and family. I also find Myspace useful in that I can funnel anything and everything I may want somebody to see or know about me into one easy, well-known layout where I can direct new acquantices to, especially those I meet on-line.

It also helps you know if the person you like is "Single" or "In a Relationship"!

Eh. It's got it's pros and cons. It's really useful to keep in touch with friends/relatives who live far away, but normally I just see it becoming some sort of huge competition to see who's got the most 'friends'.

I completely agree!!! Who cares how many friends you've got!
I like myspace, but i think, like most things on the internet, it can be dangerous if you abuse it.

I think it's really over-rated. I don't use it at all. I use msn and facebook but not myspace. I really don't get what the big deal about it is. I don't see it. Maybe that's just me though.

I'm not on Myspace, because I don't want to be, but I think it's okay. I think you have to be carefull, and not blab all your personal information all over the internet, but if you are safe, I think it is a good thing. A lot of my friends have pages, and they can chat and do whatever you do on Myspace, but I know they like it and have fun.

Myspace is alright. I have it and I really can’t get off it haha.
I think it is really good, I was reunited from my old friends I’d not seen in 8 years or so. & you can listen to music, even unsigned artiest.

I don’t think its at all dangerous, I think myspace is much safer than bebo. The only people who get in trouble with myspace are the people who make it dangerous for themselves. Like going to meet with some random person on your own, now come on that just plan stupid. No one ever thinks that someone can just copy and paste their myspace pictures from google or something and portend to be some fake person.

So yeah, myspace is pretty cool

Just an FYI concerning MySpace--be careful what you search for!

This summer I was searching for a person who used to be a friend of mine, but we're no longer friends. In fact, she did whatever she could to make my life miserable! So I was basically searching to find her MySpace so I could keep tabs on her, since there had recently been indications she was up to her old tricks again.

Well, MySpace didn't show me her profile, like I thought they would. They sent her an invitation to be one of my friends! And of course it was too late to take it back. My only recourse was to immediately close my profile.

If you're going to search people out using their email address, be sure it's someone you actually want to have on your friends list!

Wow i started this thread a long time ago haha. i have not had time to come on VTM lately anyway yeah my parents found out i had a myspace and got mad at me and told me to delete it but i didnt i couldnt i had sooo many of my friends on it and i kept in touch with them that way=] i guess this time around ill have to be a little more less suspious hehe sooo yeah i think myspace is a great way for people to keep in touch but there still are those little things that people focus on and make it worse than it is if you take the nesecary pre cautions your safe

All my friends have myspace, I'm not aloud, but I don't really care either. I'd me more safe if I were them, but I guess it's their choice and I don't want to butt in.

i love myspace
it's the one place where i can talk to my friends without actually talking to my friends i send them messages all the time and i know that theres a 98.9% that the people i don't want to see it wont see it
i've had my myspace since like 6th grade and im a freshman now so like 3 or 4 years.when my parents found out how old you had to be they took it away from me and back than i was addicted but thanks to them im not anymore and im old enough for myspace and im not addicted
my point, is that i like myspace it's an awesome website

I am currently not happy with MySpace. I have an account to communicate with my friends but after a friends relative was supposedly kidnapped because of MySpace I decided to cancel my account. Another reason why I wanted to cancel my account is because I don’t have time for it really, so anyway I submitted my account to be cancelled and it came up saying something like ‘Please wait shortly for an e-mail to complete you account cancellation’...well I would like to know how long shortly is as I submitted my cancellation oh about...3/4 weeks ago!

Does anyone know if I’m doing anything wrong?

I think that Myspace is stupid. I don't even know what it is used for. Talking to people? You can do that with a telephone or aol or aim, or yahoo or what ever. I think it's totally unsafe. Something happened at my school last year, I forget what because I don't pay any attention to anything that has to do with it, because of myspace. I'm not allowed to have one and it doesn't bother me at all. I feel a LOT safer not having a myspace.




Potters Princess

I couldn't sign up at first.. I haven't been on MySpace for a long long time.. I didn't know what I wanted for my background, I've already forgotten what I did with it..

Wow Sabrina_Rose_Snape that's horrible news! I think maybe the e-mail might be in your bulk folder. You should check.

Ok see I don't even have an account but I recently have a new found appreciation for myspace. I was looking up bands and stuff on there with my brother's band's account, so I randomly ran into a kid from my old middle school's account. I was really surprised and stuff. See after middle school I moved away and I lost all of my friend's phone numbers and e-mails so now with Myspace I found some of them and I'm like completely stoked! That's why I like Myspace. It's a chance to connect people. The thing is that it's supposed to be used cautiously and I do recommend that kids below 13 don't use it.

-Stefany

I have to agree with Stef on that.

I got a little bit afraid of Myspace because of my mum: she's a forensic doctor and she's always told me stuff like "don't post pictures of yourself on the internet, don't tell any stranger your name, don't give anyone your phone number or address" and so on.

I started Myspace because of my family in the US: it was an easy way for all of us to see each other's pictures. Then I found out my friends had it and then they started making groups, posting news and arranging meetings through it... It became very useful in planning our gatherings and parties.

What I like the most is the blogging thing... It's pretty fun!

I've become very fond of it nowadays: I can see my new friends from VTM through it, and it's really nice!

yeah Myspace is a useful tool, if you know how to use it. i keep my profile on private and no one except my friends can see my pictures. it's a scary thought when you think about it, but like i said, if you know how to use it properly than you should be fine.

and Kaitlyn i definitely get what you're saying about seeing VTM friends. and not only that but i get to see my girlfriend (who's from VTM) on it too

I like myspace and find it fun and useful. I like myspace because like Stef, I can find friends who I don't see anymore and I can look at their pictures and find out how they're going and stuff. I think its really good for that kind of stuff. Its also good for seeing VTM friends like AJ said.

Sometimes I find myspace much easier for getting to know shy people...you can leave them a casual comment randomly and they can reply just with a how are you question. Then once you start getting to know them you can send them longer comments and have long conversations.

Some of my friends are myspace addicts...its quite funny actually. They have to go on myspace everyday and during school hours when they can't go on they constantly talk about how they're going on as soon as they get home. One of my friends...she could be like 10 metres away from you and completely involved in a conversation and you just say the word myspace and she'll start ranting on about how she wishes she was on myspace at that very moment. Its very funny

Having just read through all this, I am reminded that I have not checked my myspace today.
Why do I have it? Because I am a nerd. I like doing the coding and editing of layouts and whatnot. To date, I have designed the code for four other people...just because I needed something to do.

I think Myspace is alright. I think it can be an excellent way to get in touch with people that you haven't talked to in years, like old schoolmates. I moved far away from my hometown, so everyone kept telling me to get a myspace. The reason I didn't? Laziness, pure and simple. I would never be able to keep it up. I have way to much going on and I would probably never get back to them, which defeats the purpose, so there really was no point in getting one.

I love myspace, I love the way it lets you be really creative with your profile, but this can be annoying to view some people's profile's I suppose. It's also really great for music. But none of my friends use it, so there's no point in me going on it because I have no one to talk to
Everyone has moved on to Facebook.

I really like myspace, I'm on it quite often and it is one of my means of communication.. My school is one of the few schools that hasn't started switching to facebook yet. I think some people have both but myspace is still much bigger at my school than facebook.

MySpace is eh...okay.
I've got one, and the only reason I'm keeping it nowadays is to keep in touch with everyone, because after this summer, we might never see each other again and I'm going to miss them so much, it's insane ):
I guess if you don't post your address and phone number, you'll stay safe...I've had mine for about 3 years, and nothing bad has ever happened.

Ugh. I hate myspace. I used to have one a loonnngg time ago...when it wasn't trashy. The only thing I like about myspace is how easy it is to find music.

I would have to say that I do not like myspace. I personally have not had a myspace account, but I know plenty of people who do that have had nothing but trouble from them. I do know some that really like it, I just think that most of myspace has gotten really inappropriate.

MySpace is great! I love it! It's a good way to keep in touch with your friends, family, and also, to make new friends. I met one of my closest friends on MySpace! Although, I don't like when people break rules and everybody has to suffer for it, but I guess that's the same with every site; MySpace isn't dangerous if you're smart about how you're using it.

I really don't care. Ask my best friend and she say her whole life is based on it. I would say I wouldn't even know about it if it weren't for her so I really don't even pay attention to myspace. I guess it's okay though.

I have had a myspace for almost 3 years now. I have had it since the beginning of 8th grade and I'm about to start 11th. Personally I like it alot. I mean its fun. What I like the most is decorating my page I don't like haveing a bunch of stuff on there. I like it but personally I think its sad if people develop social lifes because of myspace. That's sad. I like it to see other pages, I like looking at those. Or talking a little with people that I havent talked to inawhile. I love my cell phone but ehh I dont always use it. And i like using myspace during school time, becuase you can comment and message. i dont know its pretty much fun. but after awhile it gets boring because you have nothing much to do, but i think facebook is BORING. but thats another topic ; let me not get into that (:
