OK, ever since I put up my profile I've been getting hit on by wierdos. This is the latest pickup line...great....
"wow, i'm not into white girls what so ever, i'm more of a an asian girl kind of guy, but hot damn after seeing you, you really changed my mind about white girls"
I know on friendster you can make your profile private...can you do that on myspace too?
well now that he "changed his mind about white girls" you better start watching your back! LOL! Also I've neen getting these invites to be friends of people or bands or other groups who have, like, 3,000 members! What's up w/ that? I'm so new to all this myspace crap...but I did get in contact w/ an old friend! Yay! We're goin' out for drinks this weekend! :)
No tosh, your most def. hot enough. If I were a creepy, internet lurking, wierdo (as the likes of the above pickup line) I would definately hit on you! ;)
Well Lola, I'm not really into girls, but after looking at your blog...hee-hee
There are definitely a lot of weirdos out there so we all have to be careful. I found a roommate through roommates.com and she told me that a guy emailed her and said that he wasn't looking for a roommate at all and just propositioned her!! He actually said, "I was wondering if you wanna do it sometime?"
I don't know whether to be freaked out or to crack up laughing at the fact that he said "do it".

That's funny Farrah, actually a guy just sent me something a second ago that can be interpreted as kinda creepy...not a blatant as "wanna do it" tho, LOL
"im Brad 22 from coventry i like your pics so im gonna hit u up to see if u hit me back "
Haha, you are going to get a lot of that crap. I just deleted a bunch of "friends" who used to post pretty obscene bulletins. Ive become a friend snob again..... This one guy kept sending me stuff like, "How are you?" and other normal questions, BUT he would send like 10 of them a day & then say stuff like, "No one responds to me...you seem nice" & other bizarre stuff like that.
a girl i work with got a message from someone on myspace asking her if she was interested in breaking into acting, specifically with the local adult film industry...
Oh yeah. You definitely get a lot of weird invites when you are on MySpace. That is why I told you guys to send me a message if you invited me and it wasn't obvious who you are. I got 7 just today, which is actually more than usual. Tosh, they probably aren't sending you any because you are married. The sleazy guys that try to pick up girls on MySpace usually target single girls, I think.
I just erased everyone I didn't know yesterday (excluding stylethread girls, who I feel like I know). I was getting annoyed with the bulletins they posted and I didn't want them bothering my friends either. I have this one girl I would love to erase off of my list, but feel bad. She is a girl who pledged my sorority after I graduated and I met her like once. She must have found me by looking through another one of my sisters' profiles. She posts about 10 stupid bulletins a day, mostly crap like "if you would make out with the person that posted this, repost it and find out who will make out with you" or 10 page long polls or "I'm bored. Is anyone around?"
Every once in a while, a guy who seems normal will send me a message and I will talk to him a couple times on MySpace, but after about 2 messages I lose interest in it and then I feel bad for not responding. So, now I never answer message people send me either. I know I will just have to go through the guilt of leading them on when I will never want to meet them.
You know, ever since I changed my main picture and added you girls, I have been getting about 100 times more "adds" from people. I just signed into my e-mail this morning and had 10 messages saying somebody or other wanted to be added as a friend. I denied them all, but I just thought it was interesting. Haha...maybe they are like "wow, this girl has so many pretty friends. I gotta hang out with her."
hahah! That's funny andrea! I actually got 24 new adds this morning! But that's only because every invitation was duplicated...how annoying! But I just got a hott guy named Anthony from Long Island send me a message...I can already tell that myspace is going to be an addiction in addition to stylethread...when am I going to get my work done! LOL!
Yeah I just opened mine with duplicate adds. Must be something with their servers. I'm mainly deleting them all. Except the marine guy who seemed safe since he's on the other side of the country!
Is there a way to quit having email sent to me every time someone wants to add me or sends me an email over on myspace.com? I woke up this morning with 40 email messages in my yahoo account.
Oy, I spoke too soon yesterday....when I got home last i had 70 freakin' email "adds". How annoying. Lola -- I got that weird..."I'm not usually into white girls" one too (from Tam?). Eww. I went into account setting and removed email notification so and I think that will stopall the emails at least.
Where is the account settings? I need that too. Right now I have everything from myspace.com going straight into the trash can but no email would be even better!
I can't get in myspace from my work computer, but I think I remember it being in the box near where your pic is...there's edit your profile, acct settings, etc.
I just found it. Thanks for letting me know this. I also found a box you can check that will block all bands from requesting you to add them. I quickly checked that option.
Ooh I just did that too! cool! I was getting tons of notifications in my email...stopped that at least! I added a part where I describe my "perfect man" and I'm getting some responses...too funny!
You know what I like though? If you send ana message to someone it says whether it is "sent" "read" or "replied" so you know if the person just read your email and ignored you...
