so whenever I get a friend request, I send a form-ish letter back to the person.
#1: http://www.myspace.com/returntothepit it says right there NOT A BAND!
#2: in my form-ish letter:

I got a friend request from you... please, read this whole damn message. especially if you are in a band.

..1 I AM NOT A BAND. if you added me cause you thought I was, I'm not. the MP3s are from bands playing live on my radio show.

so I'm just curious who you are before I accept.
do you post on the RTTP messageboard? (if so, what is your screen name)

Sorry if you get this twice. This is just my way to screen out people that are just myspace whorez.
thanks!

and what do I get in response?

to tell you the truth. I added you because I liked your songs and thought they were catchy. I just like to add all bands that sounds good to me. It's not like i'm going to every band I come across and adding them :P

and

naw, i am not a myspace whore so dont worry about that. I was just lookin around for good music pages, and it just so happens i love the music, so i thought i'd add you and see what you're all about. Sic songs you got up btw.

fucking douchbags.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Im tired

That's why I refer to it as GAYSPACE. Other than band pages, it's all fucking freaks, pedophiles, and smut peddlers.

those people need to go back to school and acquire some reading comprehension skills.

dumb

ahahaha

hahah awesome. fuckin idiot.

If you wanna meet some real "freaks, pedophiles, and smut peddlers" check out Xpeeps.com . It's myspace, but porn based. Sooo skeevy.

I clicked on a xpeeps link this past week. it was all gross porn.

the_reverend said:

Haha. It's like I say...
"You meet the shittiest people on myspace, and the skeeviest people on Xpeeps."

I'll give credit to one guy on Xpeeps. His user name is something like The Worst Pics On Xpeeps. He finds the most stupid pictures of people on there, posts them, then writes a "review/summary" of what he thinks of each one.

I clicked on it and thought "wow, myspace is going to sue them. then was like 'what the fuck is that? it's either 5lbs of roast beef or an abused vjj'"

the_reverend said:

Ahaha!

I can honestly say that I'm one of the most "hip" to webthingers, but I didn't see that place until early this week.. and I haven't been back.

I have an account and just copied everything from my Myspace to it. I'm basically on there because I think some of the pictures put are are hilarious. Expecially some pics people put up. I'm waiting for the day I see something like this >>>>

I put on my robe and wizard hat.

why am I getting yelled at for people's in ability to read?

I send my usual form letter with the first line:
"I'm not a band!"

then I get this for a response:
" I do my own show (though more sporadicly since ive been out of Texas for a while). Kaos959.com.
If your down to send me a demo/cd-r itll get played fo sho. let me know and i'll break off my adress. "

so I respond:
"you didn't even read my message"

then I get 3 responses:
1)"Not that specifacly no. I thought it said im not IN the band. Basicly im out to promote the type of music I like.
I had a similiar profile that got erased on accident so im racing to put it back together.Im so so so so so sos os motherfucking sorry. It sounds like I really hurt your feelings by not reading you precious fucking email. Iguessnow we cant be friends. I dont think ill be able to go to sleep tonight.

Is there any way I can make it up to you??????
Maury

P.S. get the fuck over yourself "
---------------------------------
2)" You one of those annoying faggots whos ruined hardcore/ metal by standing @ taking ten million pictures at the front of the stage like its a fucking postmodern art gathering. Im going to pray a little pray that some stupid kick boxer destroys your equpment. I hope I can catch you at a show when im up at the maryland deathfest so I can do it myself. "
---------------------------------
3)" why the fuck does anyone need 9704 pictures of grief? I love grief but it's not like those guys are doing 5 foot jumps. they don't exactly make for the best photo opportunities, but you stood @ taking pictures of them because you have nothing else to contribute to the scene but that and your lame ass website. "


so my response:
"why yes, I've been ruining it for over 6 years, thanks."

oh, the response
" You probably dont get it. How much people who go to hardcore shows to go nuts (the only real reason to be into this shit) hate people like you. Why are you proud of that? How many bands have you been in. Why don't you try to make a real contribution. Your basicly a glorified PR guy for a genre of music that was supposed to be against that glorified bullshit. I do the same thing to a SMALL degree with my radio show and this stupid profile but I don't make it my lifes work as you apparently have. Like I said i'll see you in Maryland this spring. Better watch your equipment. Ive got a crack habit to support. "

what is wrong with people

"seeing as I'm one of the sponsers of the event and I already paid for my hotel room, I guess I'll have to be there. I'm glad you have figured out my life and everything that I've done wrong with it. time to go out and change my life and all stemming from your in ability to read a message on myspace.
wow, myspace is wonderfully useful.
thank you for the threat.
rev aaron"

also, how much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

exactly what I was thinking.

but he replied and I'm leaving it at this:
"jeez dickweed im not actually gunna break your shit. I just thought your message was obnoxious. Your site is still gay.
plus you live in NH which makes you uber gay.

Have fun being fat and not moshing at the 9 shows you go to each week. "
