A "meet" market.

This thread was actually a joke.
<font size="4" face="Arial">I'd have to disagree. My experience thus far has been less than enjoyable...got in touch with a good band or two, as well as a longtime friend (Hi Tom, if you're still coming to this board)...but other than that, I've been messaged offers to view people "gettin' freaky" on webcam...like I wanna see that shit. Meh. I suppose it's a good place to "meet" people for most, but it hasn't done much for me.Quote:

Hawkie, it seems that people are using it for an online hookup service. I know musicians use it for promo, but that seems to be the majority of its function.
Dude...if the online hook-up service bothers you....Get it outta ya mind and just don't pay attention to it. Why make it a huge problem?
I don't bother paying attention to who was with who or who's gonna meet who.
It's my first time in Myspace (I didn't know the web) but I suposse is a good chance to meet people. In any case, in the last times I haven't enough free time to keep in contact with a lot of people at the same time (job and this kind of things [img]tongue.gif[/img] )...
<font size="4" face="Arial">That is what most people use it for, and I don't really care. It was merely a comment on my part.Quote:

Yeah Jay...I'm not gonna lie and say that's not happening...cuz believe me when I first joined...and I'm sure Andii will agree...it was like I Wanna Meet You but that's the nice way to put it. I made RULES on my page for people to read...basically it says...I'm not here to hook up with anyone and anyone sending any pornographic or disrespectful messages is an automatic delete and ignore. My Rules did it's job....HAHAHA....No one bothers me anymore....in otherwords...all the SLUTS let me be.

If you wanna look at it that way - the entire internet is a "meet" market.
Depends on what you're here for. It seems that some people use it to create useless drama.
Nah Jay...Now no one bothers me...Cuz I made my point loud and clear...Even had to do a few F**K OFFs. it's been a year or two with no more shit like that.
Only women are like that? Men care if women are unavailable? Men respect that women are unavailable and do not attempt to hit on someone who is in a relationship??
I'm sorry - there are MEN out there and believe it or not on the internet that SLUTS also.
Agreed Sinn...
Something tells me Jay is still bitter from a pass relationship.
You choose who you have on your list, so if somebody is using it to hook up then good for them I guess it doesnt affect you unless you add them, if you're in a bigish band that could be a good way to reserve the hottest groupie in each town haha
Myspace is just fun, its also FREE, if you don't like it you don't have to keep using it.
Before someone goes off shaking their head and calling me a hypocrite... I have been with men who were unavailable. I wasn't saying that I'm not like that (not that I'm a slut) - all I was trying to say was men are as guilty as women.
And you also have to take into consideration that most people wanting to "hook-up" on the internet do not want to actually hook-up in real life. It's a fantasy thing. So you gotta laugh it off.
Oh and... Marcus and Andii are pretty boys???? In what decade? lol! Just kidding.
What's Myspace? Does it have anything to do with Claws Of Sin? I've never heard of either? Maybe somebody should post a link to these sites!
I was there once for a stint... a good while ago, but i closed the fuggin thing down.
And Sin.... EFF OFF! [img]wink.gif[/img]
<font size="4" face="Arial">Sin, I know there are men who will hit on a "committed" woman, especially if she initiates it. Thing is, men usually will admit to that faster than a woman will admit she will go with "committed" men.Quote:

Carl, I have yet to view clawsofsin. Is anyone sure it actually exists, or is it an hallucination derived from wishful thinking on the part of those who think Wrathchild invented glam?
<font size="4" face="Arial">True, but as I said before, women are more likely to pretend they don't.Quote:

Yes, a lot who meet on line don't actually ever get any closer. That's not to say that they are eliminating that option.
Actually, they are pretty boys. Trust me, I've been on the receiving end of that a few times myself.
<font size="4" face="Arial">Oh no, it really does exist. And in his defense, he doesn't believe Wrathchild invented "Glam", but rather "Glam-Metal". And he really only believes that they coined a term, not a style.Quote:

Sin: Yes, in a very real sense, the whole 'net is that way. Again, it was a joke thread to begin with, but myspace users seem to be more blatant about it than others. I even understand that some "professionals" are using it to solicit business.
Marc: You and Andii were surprised that women would want to get with you? Shit, those women are looking for pretty boys such as yourselves. Dude, you two ought to know by now that women don't care whether a man is in a relationship or not! They would get all huffy if their man was stepping out on them, but that's women's hypocrasies speaking.
Well then, who was it that started a row by saying the 1970s glam bands were lousy and that Wrathchild/et al invented some sort of new genre? There was a long thread about it, and quite a bit of disagreement.
AS for that clawsofsin, I always get an error message of some sort when I try and view that site.
[Thinks:] 'Internet Slut'... what a great name
for a song. [img]graemlins/wonder.gif[/img]
The only thing I really found annoying was that, even
commenting on my (well written, I hoped) blog
entries, ppl were still dizzy and monosyllabic,
or worse still, ignorant of it - 'juz give me
sexy pix, innit, or piss off' etc. etc., bless 'em.
Note: 'Internet Slut''s the name of the song
I'm currently writing with Perfect Disease chap,
Ben, for inclusion on Sourpuss if Raggitz gitz
around to itz.

Do you know how stupid you sound? Well I guess that doesn't matter cuz I know how stupid you sound.
I take it you are "talking" to me.
My dear Sin, sounding stupid and actually being stupid are two entirely different things. Actually I'm neither, but that ought to confuse you a bit.
