The ONLY Offical SHH! Myspace Thread--Don't Make More!

[Dew k. Mosi]

I totally agree with you, Walter, that's why I removed the link.

All right, I will reopen this, but if it starts becoming a name calling flame fest or people catch feelings I will close it again

[WalterKovacs]

How do you guys feel about it? Who's side do you take and why; where do you think the limit is?

[Colossal Spoons]

How do you guys feel about it? Who's side do you take and why; where do you think the limit is?

I don't think it's nearly as bad as you do obviously. My little brother and I mess with each other like that(not quite to that extent because none of us would ever cry and scream) all the time. Sure it's mean but I saw no malice.

[SapphirePrima]

How do you guys feel about it? Who's side do you take and why; where do you think the limit is?
I personally feel that the boy shouldn't be that attached to myspace and his language is very inapproiate for his age.

And yes it is real mean for his brother and his friends to post this on the interenet of everyone to see.

[Dew k. Mosi]

Sure it's mean but I saw no malice.

You saw no malice in tormenting a child until he was screaming in hysteria, while they laughed and mocked him to make him even more hysterical? Were they doing it in benevolence? Were they trying to help him?

[Colossal Spoons]

I don't think it was done in an attempt to help the little brother though; nobody's buyin that. It was for entertainment and it did just that.

You saw no malice in tormenting a child until he was screaming in hysteria, while they laughed and mocked him to make him even more hysterical? Were they doing it in benevolence? Were they trying to help him?

His hysterics is a whole other problem. I've seen kids worse than that. They get worked up over such petty things. Sucks. That was hardly "torment". They were ribbing him and he flipped out. Maybe he should learn to control his emotions :o

[WalterKovacs]

I don't think it's nearly as bad as you do obviously. My little brother and I mess with each other like that(not quite to that extent because none of us would ever cry and scream) all the time. Sure it's mean but I saw no malice.
Yeah, but you and your brother probably have some connection right? I mean, its got to be at least a small part joking around?

[Dew k. Mosi]

so it is entertaining to drive an obviously troubled kid to that point?

[WalterKovacs]

Obviously, dude has some issues fitting in, so myspace is his primary route of being able to connect to communicate with people. And even if it isnt very important to him, He has issues outside of myspace.

[Colossal Spoons]

Yeah, but you and your brother probably have some connection right? I mean, its got to be at least a small part joking around?

Yeah, we laugh about it later. Not trying to drive my brother insane now lol. Who knows what happened after the camera stopped rolling.

so it is entertaining to drive an obviously troubled kid to that point?

I found it especially entertaining b/c I watched it w/ my little brother who's obsessed with Myspace too. I took something diff from it than the average person watching :up:

[thedeadite]

Driving a young kid into a screaming fit of insanity all for a laugh is never a good thing. The limit was reached as soon as the older kids walked in with the camera. That's my opinion atleast.

[Colossal Spoons]

Obviously, dude has some issues fitting in, so myspace is his primary route of being able to connect to communicate with people. And even if it isnt very important to him, He has issues outside of myspace.

See, we don't know anything about those people. That kid had 250+ Myspace friends so he should have a few in real life. It could all have been staged; did you see the pic at the end(you said you couldn't watch the whole thing). Go back and check out the VERY end lol.

[WalterKovacs]

Yeah, we laugh about it later. Not trying to drive my brother insane now lol. Who knows what happened after the camera stopped rolling.
Sexy :up:


I found it especially entertaining b/c I watched it w/ my little brother who's obsessed with Myspace too. I took something diff from it than the average person watching :up:
Yeah, but lots of kids around that age are really into myspace.

[SapphirePrima]

Driving a young kid into a screaming fit of insanity all for a laugh is never a good thing. The limit was reached as soon as the older kids walked in with the camera. That's my opinion atleast.
I grew with my older cousins doing things similar like that to me and my younger cousins all the time. And all of us turned out okay. Except one but his problem may be genetic. Kids will be kids. The only real wrong part in this to me is posting it on the internet. The older brother is adverstising we need a visit from the social worker in my oppinion.

[AndThePickles]

I don't like children, so I can't say I felt bad for the kid when watching it...if anything, I thought he needed a good spanking for acting that way and cursing like that.

However, my FIRST thought was that the whole thing was staged.

[Colossal Spoons]

Yeah, but lots of kids around that age are really into myspace.

See, now THAT I find disturbing. My little bro gets home from school and doesn't even take his tie off before he's Myspacin' it up. I'm tempted to hide the keyboard one of these days.

[Super Kal]

I guess I should be happy that I haven't seen it

[Colossal Spoons]

I guess I should be happy that I haven't seen it

Not really. It's not a bunch of people kicking puppies or anything. Just sibling teasing that looked 4000x worse b/c the one being picked on is unstable and has a crazy shriek.

[vindrow]

Damn, guess I didn't get to the thread quick enough:word:

[Rocker22]

I missed it to. Don't really matter.

[WalterKovacs]

Damn, guess I didn't get to the thread quick enough:word:
Right?

[Spider-Man Luvr28]

See, now THAT I find disturbing. My little bro gets home from school and doesn't even take his tie off before he's Myspacin' it up. I'm tempted to hide the keyboard one of these days.

Sad.:o :csad:

[Colossal Spoons]

Sad.:o :csad:

Indeed. What I don't get is how my brother(who is ridiculously popular in school) can still have so much to talk about on Myspace not 20 mins after seeing 80% of his online-friends at school lol

[Cunning Stunts]

Since the video was taken down, I went hunting for it. If this is the correct video (two older kids filming a documentary, who walk in on their wailing younger sibling?), the little kid's voice is obviously dubbed over from a movie recording or something. You can hear how his voice seems to pick up background noise when his voice gets high pitched, and certain phrases get cut off very abruptly.

[Spider-Man Luvr28]

Indeed. What I don't get is how my brother(who is ridiculously popular in school) can still have so much to talk about on Myspace not 20 mins after seeing 80% of his online-friends at school lol

Lmfao. He probably talks about his adventures from school to home.:o

[SapphirePrima]

And video tape his freak out.:o

[Colossal Spoons]

Lmfao. He probably talks about his adventures from school to home.:o

"Dude, there were tress on the way home."

"No way!"

And video tape his freak out.:o

Done deal :D

[bullets]

I think the parents are going to flip when they find out the older brother put it on youtube. The boy must have been coerced into thinking this would be funny and they probably agreed to stop teasing him.

[Spider-Man Luvr28]

"Dude, there were tress on the way home."

"No way!"



Lmao. Read my mind exactly.:cwink: :o

[AndThePickles]

I'm friends with both of Spoons' sibs on myspace, both of their pages are pretty hilarious :o

[Colossal Spoons]

Yeah, seriously

[WalterKovacs]

I think the parents are going to flip when they find out the older brother put it on youtube. The boy must have been coerced into thinking this would be funny and they probably agreed to stop teasing him.
Im not convinced its more than one parent, or more than one good one.

[Showtime]

"What does MySpace mean to you, Nick?"

"EVERYTHING, *****!"

Oh, my.

You're setting a bad example. You power abuser!

[bullets]

That could be the case. I think the parents are just never home and they throw money at the kids to keep em busy.

[bullets]

I love how he said "this might get you ten more friends on myspace" I lol'ed

[Colossal Spoons]

I love how he said "this might get you ten more friends on myspace" I lol'ed

Haha, me too

[JP]

Er, I actually fear for his families life after watching that. . .

[bullets]

I posted a video on youtube with a couple of friends , Alot of people tried to contact us , it was creepy.

[Joker]

Someone want to link me to the original video that got taken down, via PM?

[SpideyVille]

just search 'kid addicted to myspace'

[DarknessOfDeath]

I didn't watch the whole thing cause I didn't want to get a lousy headache - damn kid was so annoying.

[SpideyVille]

yea i saw the first minute, then skimmed through parts of it... all that damn screaming was annoying

[Colossal Spoons]

Aw, turn down the volume then. It's totally worth it.

[Spider-Man Luvr28]

Just saw the video. Wtf is wrong with that kid? Does he get even more psychotic when the site crashes?:o

[Ice-man]

"What does MySpace mean to you, Nick?"

"EVERYTHING, *****!"

Oh, my.


Cause of suicide..... broken internet connection.


if only he could have loged on myspace, he would still be here today..... tragic.

[Joker]

"I cant wait to show you this when you're a senior in high school, and myspace doesnt even exist anymore...what are you gonna do when myspace isnt around anymore?"

LOL

[bullets]

After myspace there will be something else. There is this thing called wee world more geared towards kids and pedophiles , I f'n hate it. My girlfriends daughter loves the site.

[Joker]

I preffer facebook if only for the fact that there are 90% less porn bots constantly sending me messages...but I dont really use either one...

[bullets]

facebook is ok but i get endless quiz applications . My myspace is forever ruined by all the damn fake add me b*tches

[Damien Rage]

ok where is this video? In a sick way I wanna see it but I don't see a link or anything =\

[WalterKovacs]

"myspace kid flips out"

[Symbiotic]

Has anyone considered it might've been an act?

[Colossal Spoons]

Yup

[QueerMike]

Not really. It's not a bunch of people kicking puppies or anything. Just sibling teasing that looked 4000x worse b/c the one being picked on is unstable and has a crazy shriek.

THEY really did nothing wrong. The kid just can't hang.

[Colossal Spoons]

The runt of the litter has to get eaten or left behind :o

Or, you know......stop being the runt lol

[The Kid]

Is this supposed to be different from ordinary family life? If so, fail.

[QueerMike]

The runt of the litter has to get eaten or left behind :o

Or, you know......stop being the runt lol

Impossible. The runt will always be the runt, mentally, which makes him/her EXTREMELY naive and HIGHLY
succeptable to stupidity most of us can't even see.

Glad I'm a firstie!:grin:

[Colossal Spoons]

Firsties FTW :D

[QueerMike]

Firsties FTW :D

No we don't.:csad:

[Colossal Spoons]

Yeah, rarely. We get heaps of responsibility though. And that's somehow supposed to be a good thing :huh:

[AndThePickles]

Yeah, rarely. We get heaps of responsibility though. And that's somehow supposed to be a good thing :huh:

Heaps of responsibility, and then we get to watch the younger sibling get to do the same **** as you at a MUCH younger age than you were allowed to :down Yay being the guinea pig.

[Mr Sparkle]

I think that kid has issues that don't have anything to do with MySpace. :dry:


Oh, and his older brother was also a dick for torturing him needlessly instead of getting him the medication he obviously needs.

best Irony of it all?
the thing is that they want to highlight how much the kid is addicted to myspace and how fake it is, and hey "do you feel accomplished?" for the friends he has on myspace.

and then, he posts the video of himself and his 2 other friends torturing the kid on freaking youtube!!!!

ahahahahaha! and the girl is trying to be cool and pretend she's not kinda repulsed telling the kid "hey later when you look at this video you're going to feel ridiculous for liking myspace" ahahaha I'm sure she'll feel a special pride from torturing a kid to teach him a very special lesson.

ahahahahahahahahaha! they POSTED IT ON YOUTUBE!!!!! the irony!!!!

[QueerMike]

Yeah, rarely. We get heaps of responsibility though. And that's somehow supposed to be a good thing :huh:

You won't understand your powers until you step WAY OUTSIDE the box and then get back in.:hehe:

[Damien Rage]

"myspace kid flips out"

thanks man.

WOW!!! I so did not know what to think before watching this.

At first I was like "oh how nice the jerk older brother and his friends tormenting the little kid"
Then the screeching started (and didn't end).

As a youth I was harrased and tormented but OMFG I wanted to punch that kid in the head repeatedly!!!

I hate kids that screech. They need to be slapped till they stfu =)

A cruel prank that went too far basically.

Obviously the prank was going to cause some emotional distress. They had to know that, its most likely thats what they were going for.

[amazingfantasy15]

Hope this woman is found guilty and spends a long time in prison.

[S.A.A.D.]

It's funny...my g/f agrees with Wilhelm 100%, and made an argument that mirrored his almost word-for-word.

"People like that shouldn't live to procreate. Obviously she agreed. :up:"

That is just sick,very sick.:o

[Savage]

Dumb girl. A-hole defendants.

See, I'd agree with the dumb girl part if she was this normal healthy 24 year old woman but this is a 14 year old girl with issues and it really just makes you come off cold hearted for saying what is the equivalence of "Good riddance".

[amazingfantasy15]

See, I'd agree with the dumb girl part if she was this normal healthy 24 year old woman but this is a 14 year old girl with issues and it really just makes you come off cold hearted for saying what is the equivalence of "Good riddance".

Also it was an adult that knew this girl's insecurities and problems and used that knowledge to first gain her trust, then hurt her.

[Zero_Vault]

*****, needs to rot in jail.

[SiTy]

I'm amazed at the people here ridiculing an emotionally disturbed 14 year old girl. These are the same people who think someone with depression is "sad and should just stop whining". This is what happens when you combine a serious lack of empathy with, at best, a narrow and simplistic understanding of the issues.

[knowsbleed]

Get off your high horse. It was myspace... she overreacted and it cost her her life.

[SiTy]

That's what I'm talking about. People who have no ****ing clue what they are talking about spouting oversimplified mean spirited crap.

[Superhobo]

So, it wasn't Myspace and she didn't overreact? Zuh?

[knowsbleed]

That's what I'm talking about. People who have no ****ing clue what they are talking about spouting oversimplified mean spirited crap.

And there's you on the other side spouting over sensitive-I-know-what-you're-going-through crap. You're not that person... I'm not that person. But a stupid decision is a stupid decision. And if you can relate to the decision of hanging yourself over some myspace drama... then I hope the people close to you won't be too sad to see you leave.

[SiTy]

Suicide isn't an "overreaction", it's obviously the result of deeper problems. The comment was a ridiculous and obvious oversimplification. What gets to me is people making these judgments with no knowledge of not only the girls life, but psychology or neurophysiology.
It's an argument made from a point of total ignorance, and willful ignorance is irritating.

[SiTy]

And there's you on the other side spouting over sensitive-I-know-what-you're-going-through crap. You're not that person... I'm not that person. But a stupid decision is a stupid decision. And if you can relate to the decision of hanging yourself over some myspace drama... then I hope the people close to you won't be too sad to see you leave.
See: lame, simplistic, and ignorant. It's a child's argument, nothing more than an uniformed opinion.
Clinical depression is an actual defect in the way the brain processing things. The processes are complicated but it involves a deficiency in neurotransmitters such as serotonin. ADD can lead to serious depression.
One problem with depression is that the illness itself can cause the sufferer not to seek help, and without a proper support structure can lead to serious problems (like suicide)
It's ridiculous that just because the effects of a disorder are psychological, understanding and treatment of it is automatically "sensitive-I-know-what-you're-going-through crap"

[Captain Planet!]

Myspace is for teh loserz.

[Darthphere]

OMG! I can't believe you said that!

Wow. You really would not be saying that if you actually had someone close to you commit suicide.

Sheltered, narrow minded people.

[hpwiz89]

Myspace is for teh loserz.

Totally agree

[knowsbleed]

Wow. You really would not be saying that if you actually had someone close to you commit suicide.

Because you know what I've been through in my life. Oh, that's right... you don't.
Sheltered, narrow minded people. What a perfect way to describe yourself. :up:

[Savage]

Because you know what I've been through in my life. Oh, that's right... you don't.
What a perfect way to describe yourself. :up:

Yourself. What an odd name to have Mr. Knowsbleed. Your parents Hungarian?

Your words clearly show you to be a sheltered and narrowminded individual with no concept of what the word suicide even means farless for the impact. You know nothing about suicide and the effects it has on people and if you did then that's even worse because you just sound like selfish scumbag. If you actually knew someone close to you who committed suicide you would not be doing this tough guy "oh they're a dumbass" ******** and that's just that. This is a subject that hits very close to home for me and people like you make me ****ing sick.

I'm not even going to justify this with effort on my part. Catch feelings somewhere else youngster... I have no time for the emo people of this world.

*next*

[Savage]

Sounds like you CAN'T even justify it with a good response to me. You can't say **** because you've never had the unfortunate experience of it. Emo is crying over your cd not coming in on time. Emo is cutting yourself because the girl you like doesn't like you. When a 14 year old kid with ****ing mental problems kills herself over peer problems, something I'm sure all of us have experienced at one point or another, it's a ****ing serious issue. If this was your cousin or niece or daughter hell yeah you'd be sympathetic but as long as it's some stranger far away from you you can sit behind your screen in your sheltered home where everything's perfect and hunky dory and laugh because it makes no sense to you and you don't have enough activity going on up there to even comprehend this.

**** this. I feel sorry for you, being so sheltered.

[knowsbleed]

I'm soooo sheltered. Thanks for your empathy... I really do need as much as I can get. I've been such a "selfish scumbag" my entire life that it took your post, JUST NOW, for me to realize it. I'm going to turn my life around just because of your post Savage. Thanks for helping me. I owe you my life. If you take worshippers... let me sign up because I'm a born again believer in the ways of the unselfish.

tee hee.






ps... don't feel sorry for me. you don't know me enough to do that. And I've already said I'm not going to justify your ignorance of ME with a history of my dealings with suicide. So please move on... kthanxbai.

[Savage]

Hey, whatever, man. Your own words betrayed your personality as it is. I don't need to know your history to know the type of person you are and what kind of history brings out that kind of person. You sound very ignorant when it comes to the subject matter and you cannot deny that (unless you go back and edit all your posts but I'm sure plenty of people have read em by now). I feel sorry for you and people like you because, well, when a real issue like this hits you someday you're going to be a wreck. That's when the laughter will stop. I'm not asking you to feel bad for this girl or anything but surely your parents or guardians have taught you something about respect.

Poor girl's dead and people still can't take her seriously enough to stop. If you're older than me (21 by the way) then that's all the more reason for me to feel sorry for you. If you're younger than hopefully you have enough time to grow up.

[Savage]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I got that. You want to come in a thread, make your ignorant jokes and walk out. Alright. Whatever makes you feel cool with your little internet clique and gets your self esteem boosted. "Myspace is gay, mtv is retarded, people that commit suicide are dumb, and as long as it doesn't affect me it's fair game." Gotcha.

[knowsbleed]

No, I just don't appreciate someone who speaks to me like they know me or what I've been through in my life. But you seem to be the type of person who likes to make assumptions of people, people on a message board mind you, and run with it like you're some expert in ANYTHING. You're 21... you don't know jack **** about the world. Yet you can come in here on your high horse and say you feel sorry for ME? Throw that BS into a different toilet... this thread's full.

[Savage]

Oh don't give me that BS now after you've already made fun of a girl for killing herself. At this point no matter how much older you are than me you don't get the right to talk down to me because your maturity level is clearly at an all time low. I don't need to ****in' know you. I know what I've seen of you and I clearly don't like it. Maybe you feed the homeless on the ****in' weekends for all I know but that is highly unlikely when you're here making fun of dead 14 year old kids.

I'm judging you based on your very own words. That's trusting you actually meant them and was not being ironic. If you're any older than 21, hell, if you're any older than 16 then it is quite shocking to tell you the truth because your lack of sympathy tells the tale of someone with very little experience with such issues. And if you have experienced these things then, like I said before, that would just be even worse because that makes you one cold hearted bastard in my book. Either way, your words make you sound like a jerk in my book and that's what I'm judging you on. The here and now. Not your history. Not knowing you personally but knowing what you put out here on the internet.

Forget it though. Life has a way of having people learn from these things eventually.

[knowsbleed]

I'm a jerk and I've hurt your feelings. I'm sorry.

Oh... no I'm not. You're obviously an oversensitized person who takes the internet WAAAY too seriously. Calm down before you bust a zit. Now let me speak slowly for you.

You
Don't
Know
Me

You're judging of me is not wanted... not needed... unecessary... off topic... and pretty much unwelcome. This THREAD is not about you judging me.

This thread is about a teenage girl whose parents let her go onto myspace, maybe or maybe not knowing that she might be a little oversensitive and not socially adept... and let her have at it. Did she have mental issues that required that she needed mental therapy? Maybe... but you, I and the rest of the world do not know that. So you're just assuming she was depressed, or was mentally ill, or whatever you feel like feeling because obviously you're good at feeling... feel me? But maybe... just MAYBE, she didn't. Maybe she just made a brash decision because she got her feelings hurt and decided to end it all without any thought of the repercussions.

I dunno, maybe its too outlandish of a thought... "what zany reasoning, I can't fathom someone killing themselves with no real reason to do it". People make stupid decisions all the time... suicide is not an exception. I'm not saying ALL suicides are brash, last minute stupid decisions. But I DO think that this case happens to be one.

See... I'm on topic. Follow suit? kthanxbai.

[Savage]

Hey, I'm staying on topic and like I said, this isn't about knowing you but knowing what you did, or in this case, said. Stupid is as stupid does and this case you said something that's narrow-minded which in turn made you sound like a narrow-minded person. Therefor the only conclusion I could draw was that you are in fact narrow minded to even think such a thing and sheltered to not see the meaning behind it. I may not know you but you are certainly not giving me anything to judge except the bad.

I'm not taking the internet too seriously. That statement does not even make any sense. :huh: I'm talking to you man to man about this. The internet is just the method of doing this. I'd have this same argument with you if I heard you say this on the street.

Just forget it though because clearly we have different views and experiences on the subject of suicide. People like you just piss me off is all because you can't see beyond five feet in front of you.

[knowsbleed]

I'm glad I pissed you off. You just gave me a sense of accomplishment. :huh:

Talk about not seeing five feet in front of you. You're the one making assumptions about me. You're the one saying I was making fun of a dead girl (which I never did btw... making stuff up now eh?).

This could have been a civil conversation but you decided to attack me from the get go with rude comments about me when I was speaking purely about the thread subject. I have no problem sharing personal history on the internet, which could have happened here had you not attacked me in the beginning. And you did change the subject from the topic at hand... to how you feel about "people like me". You got me weeping buddy.

And how about you try using "narrow-minded" one more time. Because I don't think you've typed your quota today. :down

[Savage]

You'd prefer I call you something else beside what I think you really are? I'm not using the word narrow-minded as an interchangeable insult here so why should I stop using it?

And the way I see it I was being rude to a rude person. Someone acts like a fool I'll call them out on it. Simple as that.

And hey if pissing people off is what gets you off then that's your thing, man. Just forget about it and go about your business. You'll get your's.

EDIT: Anyway, dropping the subject. I knew going into this that from your personality type alone I'd be talking to a brick wall. The only time you'll understand is when you actually do have someone close to you commit such an act. No-one's changing anybody's minds about the subject today so **** it. I'm hitting the sack. Have a good one.

[knowsbleed]

I'll get mine huh? Thanks for wishing ill upon a random stranger on the internet.

I HAVE had someone VERY close to me commit suicide. It destroyed me, her family, our friends and I wasn't the same for quite a while. I wouldn't speak so vehemently on a subject that I had zero experience on. But here's the thing... SHE was mentally unstable... I don't give a damn what any doctor said at the time... it wasn't a stupid internet drama as in this case. So do this... shut up about things you know NOTHING about... like my experience on the matter.

And if name calling is the way for you to get ahead in an argument then that speaks volumes about how you're going to succeed in life.

As much as people may think I'm an ass... I'm speaking on the subject at hand. You've turned this into a personal insult session where you've decided to play holier than thou to someone who didn't really feel like getting into their past, didn't really feel the need to get into their past... but now felt the need to justify it because YOU say I have never dealt with suicide. Your assumptions are that of a "narrow-minded" person. And in the last few posts you keep repeating that I'm going to "get mine", "get what's coming to me" from life... so I guess more people around me are going to die because YOU feel I have no justification behind my reasoning. Sweet dreams you ignorant hypocrite.

[knowsbleed]

EDIT: Anyway, dropping the subject. I knew going into this that from your personality type alone I'd be talking to a brick wall.

Also... I like how you know my entire personality from the few posts we've exchanged in this thread. You sure have me down there Sherlock. Talk about having sheltered, narrow-minded, simple thinking. :down

To the people who "can't feel sorry for this moron"
I want you to think about what a childs mind is like.
This was not someone in there 20's or beyond who didn't value their life, this wasn't somone looking for attention and this wasn't a moron.
this was a little girl, whos brain was still in development, and adults are supposed to provide guidance to ensure children are properly raised.
But when the adults toy with a childs emotions for sheer fun, to the point where she kills herself, then it's not something to take lightly.

Upon reading through all these replys to this, I've realized how cold and heartless some of you are. Especially those of you who took the time to read the article about it. Reguardless if it was on the internet, on the telephone, in real life, a 13 year old girl DIED. Have you no compassion? Call me a bleeding heart but I don't care how she got bullied, where, when, who did it, if it caused her heartache, enough so to take her life, then I have the deepest remorse for her and her family. Some of you are so horrible in the way you posted. Saying that "Oh, its just myspace!" Well what if it hadn't been myspace. What if someone staged it to happen in REAL LIFE. Would you feel bad then? What if it was someone close to you?! I know it wasn't, but what if it was. Look at it that way.
Seriously, some of you disgust me.

1st thing you pointed out was when I said what if it hadn't happend on myspace. You said it was irrelevant. I say, it was a hypothetical question.

Then you proceeded on with saying a lot of what I said was irrelevant. I wasn't sure which part you meant and most of what I said was my opinion I.E. where "It's my opinion" came in.

[Darthphere]

I just find it hilarious that people have A) Been pulling out the it's never happened to you so you'll never understand! card and B) The whole "You people disgust me with your lack of sympathy!" card. Yes, us the ones that haven't killed themselves over some dude telling you to kill yourself over myspace.

I tell people to kill themselves over XboxLive all the time, I'm responsible for 136 deaths apparently.

I will give them this. E-Bullying would be different over myspace than on the Hype. People actually go on Myspace to make friends and even find their 2nd wife or husband sadly. So there's more emotional attachment involved.

[knowsbleed]

Its only an issue when it so happens to turn out that people have a difference of opinion on the matter.

OMG... I forgot...

that's the situation every time.

You're still going on about this? Now I get the feeling of accomplishment. :woot:

Okay so explain to me how I'm sheltered and narrow-minded now.

[Savage]

I'll get mine huh? Thanks for wishing ill upon a random stranger on the internet.

I HAVE had someone VERY close to me commit suicide. It destroyed me, her family, our friends and I wasn't the same for quite a while. I wouldn't speak so vehemently on a subject that I had zero experience on. But here's the thing... SHE was mentally unstable... I don't give a damn what any doctor said at the time... it wasn't a stupid internet drama as in this case. So do this... shut up about things you know NOTHING about... like my experience on the matter.

And if name calling is the way for you to get ahead in an argument then that speaks volumes about how you're going to succeed in life.

As much as people may think I'm an ass... I'm speaking on the subject at hand. You've turned this into a personal insult session where you've decided to play holier than thou to someone who didn't really feel like getting into their past, didn't really feel the need to get into their past... but now felt the need to justify it because YOU say I have never dealt with suicide. Your assumptions are that of a "narrow-minded" person. And in the last few posts you keep repeating that I'm going to "get mine", "get what's coming to me" from life... so I guess more people around me are going to die because YOU feel I have no justification behind my reasoning. Sweet dreams you ignorant hypocrite.

Hey, sorry about your loss but if you say things that make you sound ignorant I'm not going to think you're NOT ignorant. Get me?

Now I will admit that I was wrong to insult you, now that I've actually got a good night's rest, but that doesn't make what you said any less mean spirited (on the subject of a suicide no less). In fact it's only worse that you have had experience with the matter before so you KNOW full well what this family has gone through and is probably still going through and yet here you are.

And there's you on the other side spouting over sensitive-I-know-what-you're-going-through crap. You're not that person... I'm not that person. But a stupid decision is a stupid decision. And if you can relate to the decision of hanging yourself over some myspace drama... then I hope the people close to you won't be too sad to see you leave.

Now tell me how that isn't something ignorant and insulting to say.

[Savage]

Irrelevant, because it was Myspace.

A lot of what if's there that again are, irrelevant.

See, here's what I don't get, why is the fact that it's myspace even a factor? The point is she was talking to someone who she thought was her friend and to put it lightly, that person betrayed her. Now if this was a well developed girl in her 20s then sure it would be pretty ridiculous to kill herself over such a trivial matter. When you're a 14 year old girl and every problem is an "omg! my world is gonna end!" problem then something like this will wreck you. Not that all 14 year old girls kill themselves over things like this. We'd be extinct.

I just don't see how people are not seeing the difference here. Oh well. Can't ask someone to feel something that they don't want to.

Because people are betrayed and back stabbed everyday in real life, to their faces, person to person not over some computer and you don't see them killing themselves, hell, I've been betrayed a million times. The only reason we're even talking about this is because of the Myspace factor, if not this would be some other suicide no one gives a **** about. You're telling me that everytime some 13 year old girl gets "betrayed" they should kill themselves and I should feel sorry for her? Hell no. If anything maybe her parents should have invoked in her some modicum of self respect and self worth.

Most times I'd agree with this, except for the fact that the betrayer was a woman who knew this kid. Knew how to gain her trust and build her up, with the sole intent of then knocking her down, she knew the girl had mental problems. Those are the things about the case the disgust me, a grown woman picking on and picking apart this girl like that. MySpace is the reason we're talking about this, you're right, becausee MySpace allowed this mother the ability to commit the crime.

Son Allegedly Attacks Mom After MySpace Cut Off
HAYDEN, Idaho (AP) ― An 18-year-old Hayden, Idaho, man was arrested late last week after allegedly stabbing his mother when she forbid him to use the Internet social networking site MySpace. The teen was charged in 1st District Court with aggravated assault after his mother said he cut her wrist.

The mother said she confronted her 6-foot 2-inch tall, 320-pound son, after which he became aggravated and packed his belongings to leave their home.

Police said he pulled out a black and silver knife from his pocket as she tried to take his cellular telephone charger from him and cut her on the left wrist.

The teen then rode his bicycle to a location nearby, where he was later detained by police without further incident.

He was released from Kootenai County Jail on Monday.

I'm up late...sent a Myspace comment to a friend and got hate mail in return. Turns out that "everyone" has their cell phones set to ring like an alarm whenever they get a comment, email, friend request etc on Myspace.

This sounds like the dumbest idea possible.

Do any of you have this set up...and do you ever get frustrated waking up 10 times every night because a woman in lingerie advertising her sexy chat room/dating site wanted to friend you?

[Aesop Rocks]

Facebook does this too. Hell, anything you want emailed to you does this.

Not just phones, my iTouch, when I had it gave me an alert every time I got a tweet, facebook notification or, email.

Not shutting down, but as I discovered and have done so not that long ago (within the last hour) you can now sync...your myspace account to your facebook account. However, as far as I could tell, if you post something on facebook, it won't show up on myspace, as myspace hasn't gotten that part up yet.

:o and if you delete your myspace while it's synced up to facebook will either of these happen? A) Myspace account deleted. :5 seconds ago from myspace or B) Delete myspace account and since it's synced up, it takes your facebook account with it.

How did facebook get more popular than myspace in the first place?

[SPider-T0rch]

How did facebook get more popular than myspace in the first place?
By targeting young adults rather than tweens like Myspace. Of course, Facebook is now becoming like Myspace by letting minors be able to make their own pages, thus adding some lameness to its name

Myspace has too many fake accounts... at least from what I experienced. Facebook manages to avoid that somehow. I think.

[Aesop Rocks]

No thank you, Myspace. I don't want a single got darn reason to even think of your URL.

Seriously stopped using Myspace like 3 years ago, as a member. But I do still use it for their music.

Facebook is slowly absorbing myspace. Soon we will be calling it Myfacebook!:shock

I think someone did that on his talkshow...

[Superhero Hype!]

MySpace is ranked 30th of all sites online worldwide, which is quite a change from years before, but I doubt it's going anywhere anytime soon.

I wonder where SHH ranks...<pauses for Mirko to answer> :)

Facebook doesn't really have the music networking that Myspace has/had, which is unfortunate. That's the only reason why Myspace is/was good.

MySpace just got loaded up with too much crap for me. And they layout on most pages was god awful messy and just hard to read. Facebook condensed everything nicely where you could easily access friends and groups and such without having them plastered on your main page. Of course, they (facebook) have started to screw all that up recently.

Facebook is beating MySpace simply because while MySpace is best if you want to access new music & artists, Facebook is great for connecting with long, lost friends, chatting with your family & friends, and even keeping tab on your favorite topics and subjects. With FB membership rising by the day, it makes other sites like MySpace obsolete. Thanks to FB, I'm able to keep in contact with my HS and college friends, and check out the latest news from my own circle of friends and family. I don't really need anything else besides it.

Agreed. That's Facebook's negative to me being a guitarist in a series of bands.

MySpace is very band/artist friendly. Be it music, comedy, etc. The big downfall with MySpace now is that no one uses it, haha!

Facebook has options for bands and music but it's just a pain in the ass and it's actually more difficult getting people to follow you or "be your fan".

On MySpace we have like 150 to 200 people who loyally follow us but on FaceBook we only have like 10 people. It's just odd.

Though this has been coming for quite a while now. I haven't even checked my personal MySpace account in almost a year. I'm on it at least once a week for my bands. :o

Myspace has been going downhill for quite some time now. The only reason is still somewhat relevent is because of the music.

In a not so distant future: MyTwitterBook.

By targeting young adults rather than tweens like Myspace. Of course, Facebook is now becoming like Myspace by letting minors be able to make their own pages, thus adding some lameness to its name

This.

I also think that they should not allow minors on Facebook just to have a more adult friendly site(and I don't mean porn and whatnot). I'm talking about getting rid of a lot of the underage whores.

I use Facebook to keep in touch with friends and family that live far away that I don't get to see often if at all. It's annoying though how many morons post song lyrics. At first I was always asking "what's wrong?" or "huh??" but now I just ignore it and realize how stupid they are.

Wake up people, posting song lyrics as your comment is incredibly dumb. Especially when I ask them why they do that and they reply with "well I couldn't think of anything else to say"...THEN DON'T TYPE ANYTHING! It's stuff like that that makes Facebook almost as dumb and idiotic as Myspace.

Facebook really dropped the ball when they started to let minors be able to create their own pages. Now many friend requests are from high school kids that claim that they've seen me once or twice when they were in 8th grade or freshman year. Guys, I DON'T REMEMBER YOU! you kinda hit puberty between the time I last saw you and now. :whatever:

Facebook has a movie coming out.

Facebook has a movie coming out with Spider-Man in it.

Facebook has a movie coming out with Spider-Man and Justin Timberlake.

Facebook has a movie coming out with Spider-Man, Justin Timberlake, and Zombieland in it.

Facebook > Myspace

MySpace is basically the equivalent of that one mall in the city that's known as the tore up one. You got one good mall and one ghetto mall.

[katie_girl09]

And in a couple of years, something will come around to replace Facebook.

[THE MR. TERRIFIC]

Yup!

[Harls]

Poor Myspace.
