Myspace.com Blows
Seriously, I could type a ten page report and hand it to the federal goverment about why myspace should be shut down.
Why should you NOT use myspace?
Myspace is full of pedophiles. All over the news has there been shit about how kids are being abducted while walking because of giving out a large (sorry, I mean an EXTREME) amount of information on myspace. But this strikes the point, what kid couldn't get abducted walking down the street? Also kids are falling into these "blogs" with a fair amount of bullshit on it, which easily sinks into their minds and corrupts the last few brain cells remaining.
Why don’t I use myspace? My friends come to myspace and post crap all over the comment box with random usernames, and next day waiting at school is a printout, and the teacher takes it from someone’s desk, sends me to the office and everyone linked to my myspace gets screwed.
On my point of being a load of crap, you have these "emo" and "goth" kids who are running around dressed like queers. They all have one thing in common, they have myspace. They are fast to give themselves the label "emo" and "goth" and yet they do not know what it means. Dressing like a fag, Smoking pot and cigarettes, and drinking, cutting, and complaining. This is all more crap that kids pick up from myspace. The "emo" girls dress like whores, and to me it’s not funny at all. The guys dress like fags to get these girls too. I mean their pants are so tight they can’t pop a boner; it’s like a second layer of skin.
Myspace is also slow and inefficient; deleting your myspace could take several days. I recently saw an article on HBH about myspace social engineering, check it out. Also you have AT LEAST four page views each time you visit myspace, which is quite ridiculous. Probably the main reason Myspace is so slow. Myspace is also "h4ck3r z0n3", I mean scriptkiddie zone. You'll find morons all over the site talking about hackers and how bad they are. Be sure not to post your phone number or email address anywhere, because in five minutes your have a hundred random assclowns calling you or spamming your inbox claiming they hacked your b0x.
Kids are also getting in trouble for posting their crimes all over myspace, and I've seen it happen first hand. My friend posted in his "xanga" about how he threw fireworks at some dudes house and almost got shot. Few days later a teacher saw it, and it was linked to several other "Xangas" including mine. No, not myspace, xanga, another pedophile site. Kids are getting themselves screwed by posting (death) threats about teachers, parents, and other kids. They later get suspended from school and sent to a detention center. Myspace is also being used to solve crimes, who would have known?
The myspace staff cares about nothing but money, and myspace was recently bought for 180 million. Safety is not a priority to the staff, and they refuse to take any responsibility. Myspace can take their bullshit and shove it back up their bull ass.

ok the only reaosn i have one–my friend literalyl sat down in my chair and made one on my computer. So i go there every now and then and see if anyone has said anythign to me. End of story. Its not only a moron goth and emo thing–morons. call me a hatemonger, they are.
And i am so Fucking tired of stupid people. I got tired of them already, and im only 14. I give up trying to explain them to people and myself. So now, my only answer is, theyre Fucking retarded. Thats all. I give up.

I agree that cutting is one of the dumbest and immature things anyone can do. and some people dress "emo" to fit in. but we all have our own styles that we like. so i dont think you should be judging and classifying and being stereotypical. and you think being "emo" came from myspace. well your wrong. and before you know every "emo" kid you dont need to be saying this stuff. lots of people call me emo by my looks and that is stereotypical cuz you cant make a huge generalization like that.
yes i know that. (if u are partly talking to me) but i just dont get it–why the fuck would you desire that?? I dont fit in at my school. Im not one of hte popular ones…I dont fucking cut my self, or dress in all black. I just laugh to my self at their ignorance and cant wait till i am older to show them all up. if only i had IP's…
OK, I won't flame though this seems an appropriate time to do so, I'll just calmly make a few points (or what I think are points)
-
I see no point in flaming myspace here, although I do agree with you on some points (such as the pedophiles and people putting out way too much information.)
-
I made a myspace so I could mess around with the CSS on my page and see what all I could do. I was too lazy to make a website.
-
Now as to the 'emo and goth' generalization, I think your wrong. I live in a redneck town, and I'm one of the few people who listen to rock, and because of the way I dress, I'm considered 'emo and goth' but I have never cut myself (except by accident, like when I was stripping wires) and I just laugh at the people who call me goth because the true goth people died out long ago.
Whether or not you are emo, goth, punk, metalhead, or just generally alternative or none of those at all does not really matter! I would have thought the majority of people in here would not really be bothered by what you are (stereotypically of course) because labelling someone an 'emo' and the calling them a 'fag' is just as bad as racism or ageism. I think the society should grow up! I happen to know a feww people who are considered 'emo', they do not cut themselves or stupid shit like that, it's Stereotypical, it's Stupid!
Ok, i dont want to get caught up here, again, in my TERRIBLE wording, and make people think that i am one of those aweful people who critisise EVERYEONE for EVERYTHING, and think that everyone who has a myspace is emo. I dont. I just want to make a final point on what i am trying to say, and agree on, here:
-Yes, a lot of people on myspace are stupid and give out too much info.
-Not all people who have myspaces are "emo/goth"
-Youre not one of hte above terms just because you dress in black, necessarily. Its a thing about attitude/reilgion. Emo, being short for emotional, can actually be a happy person that is just very, well, kinda cooky and crazy and loves to be alive, which is contrary to what we generally associate EMO with. Goth, or gothic, is actualyl derived from the, or a religion. Also medevil, cira 1400-1500 i believe, architecture. The religion mainly being considered a satist derivitive, i also, think.
-yeah, i have a myspace, but i dont even care about it really. My friend, like i said, physically got on my PC and made one for me.
-People who are legitimately gothic or EMO are not fags..where the hell did that come from??? i mean seriously, no one even says that. No one calls those people fags…And for the brits(is that an ehtnic slur? if so ill stop using that.) Fag is a gay/queer however, person. Not a ciggerette. :) You probably knew that though…just hought i would clear up just in case.
Folks, making a stereo type about an entire group or population or culture is, STUPID!!!!! We had really great friends that were middle eastern…Im kinda fat, but do i eat like a pig? no…Im from kentucky, but do i wear a straw hat? HELL NO!!!…Do guys with Jettas really know how to dance? lmao, sry i had to make fun of that commercial.
ok, ill shut up, i think you get my point, and can agree.
well i use myspace and i find it rather useful.
seeing as all my friends have it, its quite easy for organising things, or posting them PM's so they can read it next time they online. If they arent on MSN, post a myspace message and they'll read it as soon as they can, much easier.
also posting bulitins regarding organising events and evneings out, much easier than speaking to 30 people on msn all at once.
i use it for convience, so i surpose i am in the miniority of users who go myspace crazy.
but in regards to the things posted above, it is all to do with the type of users, not myspace itsself. frankly if a kid is retarded enough to post dangerous info then quite frankly he deserves to be abducted. maybe when he is released it will teach him some common sense.
wtf is EMO? :| goth i know… (don't like the style, but everybody has his thing no…?) emo, never heard of… maybe not realy existing over here. it's funny, all those 'you have to fit in some kind of category-shit' who cares…? i wear what i like! and that depends from time to time…hell, why do people wear things not because they like it but because it fits with their group? lol :D i still don't like goth tho :p and punk and metal and skate and disco and alternative and grunge and hardcore-dudes and mocro's and … (/join *we.care)

I dk what the fuck the post above me was about neways…
Okay about emos and goths and shit. yer umm people who are llike that serisouly need to get a life, becuase they can sit there and say ohh im not labled, then turn around and be like yea im totaly goth. yea thats gay!
As far as myspace goes. yea some of it is disturbing like the lile 12 yr old sluts, and the 60 yr old pedifiles, but i use myspace to keep in contact with my friends from another state, and some from other countries.
Soh yea thought i would just put my 2 cents in the convo ^.^ <3
Let me clear up a few points…
- Not everyone who has myspace is emo/goth :p
- Emos did not originate from Myspace
- a majority of kids get this "emo/goth" crap from myspace
- Just because people call you emo doesn't mean you dress like a fag
- Wearing alot of black doesn't make you become "gothic"
- I was getting to the point emo guys try to dress like fags to get emo girls… wtf
- Myspace can be helpfull for planning events, or it can get more kids raped
These are a majority of steriotypes that emos/goths/myspace lives up to, so normally when you would see a post like this, it would be natural to think in that direction.

For me townies are the same as chavs just a bit more upperclass id say… well they can afford a wash perhaps still in my opinon arses.
Im skater/hardcore/Deathmetal kid well in other words im Damien :D
To the original poster in this topic:
I'm glad you picked the username "elitist", because that's the impression I get from you, a complete elitist.
Look, I don't use myspace, I don't 'get' it. Maybe the whole point of the thing has passed me by, or maybe I'm just boring. Anyway, I don't have one, and I doubt I will in the foreseeable future. But, that's not to say that I actually give a crap if you have one.
Look, people ARE going to do things that you think are stupid, pointless or pathetic. But, your opinion isn't going to apply to everyone, and some people will think you are wrong, while others will agree with youlike your whole myspace rant. Just chill out, agree to disagree, and don't think so highly of yourself and don't think that your opinion is correct. That would be being an elitist, and you DON'T want to live up to your name.
OK, in summary:
Elitist_00, you're an arrogant, obnoxious, elitist prick. I suggest you get off your pedestal and just accept that things exist that you don't like.
Of course, that's just my opinion.
if wearing black and listening to industrial makes you a goth then im a goth. however i also listen to tool and eagles of death metal and static-x and greenday and NOFX and the beatles. how can you say that a person is something. admitadly emos are to rock music what skiddies are to hacking but some of them are not too bad.
btw. if your a scene kiddie and a script kiddie does that make you a skiddie skiddie.
if so i think i will be making a parody of the chitty chitty bang bang song. "Skiddie Skiddie bang bang. Skiddie Skiddie bang bang. we hate you"
Kids make it too easy to be considered Emo/Goth… they are fast to label themselves but when you ask them what an "emo" or "goth" is you'll hear alot of studdering and uhh's and um's before they get to your point.
And seriously, if you ask you'll get answers from emos that they are manic depressent and half gothic. Twenty emos jump you telling you they are not goth and bombard you in bullshit.
Goths… same story different definitions… the only single common thing about ALL goths is that they wear black.
