Im on it, but not like an addict :P I do check it everday. But I define an addict as someone who becomes a bulletin post whore lol

totally agree. i skipped myspace and went straight to facebook. from what i've seen of most myspaces, they're really loud and cluttered. facebook provides the info in a clean, organised manner. plus, the apps are cool too.

I think I probably qualify. Don't post bulletins much, but I'm on 32 boards (down from 41). I'm only active on a few these days but I check them several times a day. The profiles being cluttered isn't because of the site, it's what happens when you give unlimited design control to people who don't get web design

i'm sure myspace users are partly to blame for the poor reputation amongst other social networking sites.

but myspace's creators should at least hold some responsibility for providing the unlimited design control in the first place and believing that the public can be trusted to create anything but an eyesore.

But it's their eyesore. Some people may think the same of my sculptures. Does that mean I shouldn't be allowed to do them??

Sep 2, 2007, 7:56 AM
of course not. probably not my wisest choice of words. just my opinion on the differences between the services and my reasoning for choosing facebook.

I think my myspace is fairly tasteful, I don't have a bazillion vids or pix, and the background is an awesome album cover. I resisted myspace for like a year then a bunch of my friends sucked me in. c'est la vie!
I use it mostly for the blog.

if u wanna see it, send me a message, I had too much flooding bullshit so I set mine private.

Facebook is soooooooooo much better.

-- No stupid spam from people who are "soooooo in love" with you that you don't even know lol
-- No unwanted friend requests from people you don't know
-- Better privacy levels.
-- Doesn't FREEZE your computer for a min or so cause someone has so much vids/music on thier page like Myspace does.
-- More people you actually know seem to be on Facebook, if not, they show up a week or so later lol

I perfer Facebook... I had Myspace but deleted after leaving it abandoned for a few months and most of my attention was on Facebook.

If anyone wants to see mine and tell me what a mess I made just let me know......lol Thanks again for the replies!!!! Bisexual.com members ROCK !!!!! :) :2cents: :bigrin: :bipride:

I have to admit, that I'm new to Myspace. But if my experience so far is anything to go by (and it is VERY similar to Tasha's criticisms above), then I think I'd prefer FaceBook.

What's the deal with those Spammers and friend requests... gawd, they drive me nuts!!! :mad:

from what i hear about myspace, there's an ongoing competition to accumulate the highest number of friends amongst your peers, regardless of whether you know them or not. because everyone wants to be popular! :cool:

Ya... with Facebook the only people who ask to be on your friends list is people you actually know!! Same with messages (unless someones private replying to a message of yours that you posted in a group forum you joined.)

Better privacy :)

I was on both sites but I have since deleted my profiles on both sites.

I don't like what they've done to them and how they've changed (I was on facebook in the early days when it was only for college/university students), how they're huge corporate monsters (I know that most websites are and that it takes cash to host a site but people are making serious money off of both sites and Rupert Murdoch owns MySpace), and I don't like how myspace is so poorly coded.

Hey Diamond, I just use it for fun....like leaving silly messages for my friends back in forth but also some of the rockers I like are on there and I can quickly go to their page for updates (such as concerts....band info)and even a few rocks have sent me emails about different comments I have made so that was really neat and it is free so I say why not.....have a great weekend Diamond....stay true to yourself babe!!!!!!!!

USED to like myspace until all of the groups I was subscribed to mysteriously succumbed to the "Invalid Group ID" plague. There's nothing that kills a community faster than none of its members being able to meet anymore.

I killed my account a couple of weeks ago after my about 100th email saying "whoever" wants to add you as a friend. Go to the site and find out who it was and finding out it was just another "friend" ploy. Most of the accounts were deleted before I could even get online to check what happened.

Just starting on Facebook, but not intense.

I remember getting sick of Myspace when I tried to view new messages or tried to update something on my profile and kept getting error messages over and over and over.

Then the scammers and unwanted friend requests. Just got to much.

Facebook is my FAV!!! Im addicted to Facebook... and to date, Ive created 5 other facebook addicts hehe

Plus I LOVE thier groups... true, some are stupid but there are pently of really nice groups on there.

I'm a crackbook, errrrr I mean Facebook devotee. I too prefer the cleanness of the layout than to the busyness of Myspace. Plus (before this thread) I had heard of the not so good things on Myspace that others have mentioned here. I also know more people on Facebook than Myspace.

For the folks getting frustrated with the spam friend requests, you can change your account settings so that people have to know iether your last name or your email address (your choice which) in order to send you one.

I am on myspace and I like it--I may be one who has "too much on my page" but I don't care and most of "my friends" are those I have never met but I am accumulating lots of "friends" who are artists, musicians, etc. I would never have had any kind of access to previously---
