Myspace is fine...it's some of the people who post on it that should be banned.\n\nIf you're going to ban myspace, you need to ban livejournal, yahoo 360, xanga, personal websites, message and discussion boards, etc. as well.  Where does it stop?

It hasn't happened to me but I've seen what you are talking about.  These are usually the same people who suggest when someone wants to make a website to use geocities or "just make a myspace."  The second part really annoys me though, because if someone wants a website, MySpace isn't going to do anything to get them what they want.  It's a crowded social networking site that doesn't even always work!  The least that they could do is try actually searching for what the person is looking for themselves before answering with sites that might not have anything or may not be of any help what so ever.

It sucks!!! I had it and I accidently deleted everything on it so I just decided to delete the whole thing. I think it was built for adults but teens took over. Plus 75% of the people on their lie about themselves. I no this because there are so many people in my school that are freshmen that say their like 20 so honestly whats the point? You don't really find out about people anyway and a bunch a people have been raped and stuff because of it. Share your info with your friends and forget about MySpace. It's just a place for teens to waste their time anyway because we have nothing else to do but hang out with friends and talk about people with our pathatic lives (lol)!

It looks like a nice site and owners name is listed when you do a DNS domain name look up so that is another good point. For me I go where the majority of my friend and family are already at. If you want to try it out go for it I just would not cancel my Myspace until I found out it was a site I preferred.

i have a myspace and I use it all the time. It is a place for friends, but you just have to be careful about who you accept as a friend and how much information you put about yourself onto it.

Myspace is no worse or no more dangerous than any chatroom or forum where people can interact. It is not myspace that is bad, there are bad people and there are stupid people. Unfortunately, they sometimes meet on myspace with bad outcomes. But they also meet in coffee shops, grocery stores, and the YMCA. So unless you are stupid, myspace is ok.

Myspace is just another avenue for today's youths to communicate with one another. Yes, it can be a problem, however, it is truly up to you as a parent to monitor what your child may or may not be doing on myspace. \n\nWe have all seen the news reports. It we did not have so many fast a$$ children trying to hook up with every tom dick and harry then myspace wouldn't be receiving all of the hype that it is getting now.

It's not a bad site, nor did it have any intentions of being bad.  Bad people make it bad and ruined it for everyone else.  For your safety, only add REAL friends.  Do not add anyone you don't know.  Also, don't put anything TOO personal out there.  Don't put any nude photos of yourself.  Those are ways to get sexually assaulted.  Just be careful...\n\nGod Bless.

well that kind defeats the whole purpose of myspace does'nt it?  I seriously doubt that this is possible.  If you want a private web site, build one...

I don't think that myspace is the problem. The problem comes in when people use myspace for the wrong reasons. Most people use it to keep in touch with their friends, or to make new friends. People also use it to promote bands and comedy acts, etc. Perhaps what should be done is some sort of screening against sexual predators, as well as screening for underage users. I see lots of youngsters on there who add a few years onto their real age in order to sign up at myspace. Also, parents need to know what their kids are up to online, and kids need to be taught about what to do and not do, and what to say and not say while online. Myspace isn't the only site that predators use. If you watch any Dateline "To Catch A Predator" news reports, you'll see that chatrooms from all over the place are used, even strictly teen chatrooms. I think that if strict screening was done *some* of these crimes could be wiped out.\n\nSo..to sum it all up....it's not the site that is causing the problem. Some of the users are there for the wrong reasons.

Most of the people who hate myspace have children and are worried for thier safety.\nChildren are gullable and too trusting and have the potential of getting hurt by those individuals who are misleading and guiding to those young in nature. If it were a perfect world and everyone just wanted to say "HI" that would be great! But there are predators out there wishing to RAPE our young children! Myspace makes it easy for this to happen.\nThat's why some people HATE myspace.

That means that nobody else cares...\n\nKidding!  MySpace encounters technical problems all the time, just like the rest of us.  :-)

I think MySpace can be a good site.  Please be smart about it though (to avoid unwanted attention) and do not list your personal information such as last name, address, phone number.  If you are under age talk to your parents to help you create a safe profile.
