If I reject someone's friend request, do they get a mail from Myspace saying "HA! Loser! You have been rejected!" or do they just think I never accepted them?
Some cabaret musician wants to be my friend, and I don't like cabaret music.

every time i get spamy band frndrqsts i send them a message saying "WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU? FRIEND OR SPAMBAND?"
I've not had a reply to date. I'm guessing SPAMBAND.

― teh_kit (g-kit), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 09:22 (seventeen years ago) link

why not ignore it and leave it in your request box?

― nathalie (stevienixed), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 09:23 (seventeen years ago) link

This is more fun.

After I posted that, I went to check my mailbox and someone HAD replied. They said I sound like a bitch, and said they'd like to fuck me like one.

I guess I won't be adding them.

― teh_kit (g-kit), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 09:27 (seventeen years ago) link

Unless I get the sudden urge to be gangbanged by german electrogimps.

― teh_kit (g-kit), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 09:31 (seventeen years ago) link

Sounds like the average tuesday around here. Wednesdays it's the art rockers...

― kv_nol (kv_nol), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 09:42 (seventeen years ago) link

Haha, they even went to the trouble of reading through my whole profile and pulling out the parts that they thought made me sound THE MOST like a bitch, and quoted them in the message. Like, as PROOF that I am indeed a complete bitch.

Amazing.

― teh_kit (g-kit), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 09:45 (seventeen years ago) link

Wow. At least they made an effort. Make them your friends!

― kv_nol (kv_nol), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 09:46 (seventeen years ago) link

That would undermine my anti-spamband stance somewhat.

― teh_kit (g-kit), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 09:48 (seventeen years ago) link

It's not really spam any more! How many exchanges have you had with spammers? These are real people, with feelings!

― kv_nol (kv_nol), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 09:49 (seventeen years ago) link

but they hurted MY feelings.

― teh_kit (g-kit), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 09:50 (seventeen years ago) link

Fair enough, I still stand by the point that it's not spam!

― kv_nol (kv_nol), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 09:51 (seventeen years ago) link

Well, why don't YOU be their friend?

― teh_kit (g-kit), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 10:03 (seventeen years ago) link

They never asked me ;_;

― kv_nol (kv_nol), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 10:08 (seventeen years ago) link

lol

― teh_kit (g-kit), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 10:11 (seventeen years ago) link

Now you hurted MY feelings. That is PROOF that you are indeed a complete bitch.

― kv_nol (kv_nol), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 10:12 (seventeen years ago) link

As if it were ever needed.

― teh_kit (g-kit), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 10:12 (seventeen years ago) link

i finally managed to change the look of my myspace page. hurrah!

― nathalie (stevienixed), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 10:55 (seventeen years ago) link

be my new club night's friend! www.myspace.com/thizzfacelondon

― lexpretend (lexpretend), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 11:10 (seventeen years ago) link

'proto-electro'? like thomas dolby and shit?

― temporary enrique (temporary enrique), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 11:14 (seventeen years ago) link

hi nrq!

― lexpretend (lexpretend), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 11:24 (seventeen years ago) link

Kev, the Kit, this is all fascinating stuff, don't get me wrong. But it does not answer my question.

why not ignore it and leave it in your request box?

Because then it just sits there in my way forever. Plus, once, one of my brother's "friends" asked me to add him, and his avatar sat there in my request box, dancing away like a little cunt. Eventually I was forced to reject him.

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 11:25 (seventeen years ago) link

I don't think it sends a message when you are rejected. I've never got a rejection note and I've been rejected by people - usually friends who didn't realise that it was *my* MySpace and not some lame band trying to schmooze them.

― masonic boom (kate), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 11:29 (seventeen years ago) link

Hooray. I shall cut a swathe through them, then. Get away, stupid Swedish cabaret women!

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 11:31 (seventeen years ago) link

lex is there a venue for thizzface yet?

― resumo impetus (blueski), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 11:36 (seventeen years ago) link

we've only just started emailing venues

― lexpretend (lexpretend), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 11:37 (seventeen years ago) link

I can't answer question bcuz I am fortunate enough to have never been rejected for myspace friendship.

so, where is bnrq myspaec?

btw sandbolloxers, i am at http://www.myspace.com/teh_kit so you can all add me and then send me messages about how you're gonna fuck me like the bitch I so clearly am. and accentmonkeh, maybe I can REJECT you in the name of science?

― teh_kit (g-kit), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 11:39 (seventeen years ago) link

fuck me, i got a big stream of errors when i posted that link

― teh_kit (g-kit), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 11:40 (seventeen years ago) link

how you're gonna fuck me like the bitch

teh_kit is one of those ladies in their undies sending me invites? Oh noes!

Don't reject the accentmonkey! She's alright really...

(xpost)

― kv_nol (kv_nol), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 11:41 (seventeen years ago) link

NAEM OF SCIENCE

― teh_kit (g-kit), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 11:42 (seventeen years ago) link

Odd name for a webcam...

― kv_nol (kv_nol), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 11:42 (seventeen years ago) link

NAEM OF SCIENCE

Sure, that's what they all say...

Okay, do. I'd be curious to see what happens. Also I'd be curious to see if you can then decide to unreject someone, or if they stay rejected forever.

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 11:44 (seventeen years ago) link

i think i might have two (inactive) myspace accounts. i can't remember the first one.

― temporary enrique (temporary enrique), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 11:47 (seventeen years ago) link

permanent rejection would make me feel really guilty

― teh_kit (g-kit), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 11:50 (seventeen years ago) link

ok, you have been officially REJECTED. i feel awful already :(

― teh_kit (g-kit), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 11:51 (seventeen years ago) link

I sent you teh friend request, gkit.

― Norman Phay (Pashmina), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 12:00 (seventeen years ago) link

prepare to be rejected!

― teh_kit (g-kit), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 12:02 (seventeen years ago) link

I would post Myspace but fear teh rejection. That and I never check the thing so would probably end up causing offence!

― kv_nol (kv_nol), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 12:09 (seventeen years ago) link

prepare to be rejected!

silly spammy german band sent me another message, completely BLANK.
OH HEAVENS, they're really hassling me now! I flagged it as spam. Next step: report abuse. Who knew myspace could be FUN??

― teh_kit (g-kit), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 13:13 (seventeen years ago) link

I'd appreciate some invites even from german electro freaks I've only got 6 friends.

Hint.

― ned trifle XIV (ned trifle XIV), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 13:30 (seventeen years ago) link

I'll be sure to pass it on to them!

― teh_kit (g-kit), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 13:33 (seventeen years ago) link

ok, you have been officially REJECTED. i feel awful already :(

It's fine, no really, it's all okay. I just have something in my eye here...

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:03 (seventeen years ago) link

So, did you get a NOTICE OF REJECTION, or not?

― teh_kit (g-kit), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:09 (seventeen years ago) link

What do you care?

Er, no I didn't. So now I can reject with impunity. If that's the correct use of that word.

Thanks, teh_kit.

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:12 (seventeen years ago) link

Trish, did teh_kit disappear out of your Pending Friend Requests list? That's something I've wondered about.

― Nu-Edward III (edward iii), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:41 (seventeen years ago) link

I never checked. I didn't know I had one. I don't mind that so much though, it's only the thought of people getting an actual message to tell them they've been rejected that I was worried about.

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:43 (seventeen years ago) link

plz 2 send me another, so we can 4 realz be friends?

― teh_kit (g-kit), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:49 (seventeen years ago) link

Would you, in the interest of science, take a look? If you go to your Inbox, in the list of links there's one called "Pending Requests".

― Nu-Edward III (edward iii), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:57 (seventeen years ago) link

Yes, they fall off your pending requests when you are rejected.

― masonic boom (kate), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:57 (seventeen years ago) link

D4 P41N!!!1

― teh_kit (g-kit), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 15:10 (seventeen years ago) link

So wait, what happened now? A band got irritated with Kit because they sucked? Fuck 'em.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 15:18 (seventeen years ago) link

Yep, friend pend gone.

I will now send teh Kit another request, in the hopes that Myspace doesn't say "you've been told once".

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 15:20 (seventeen years ago) link

Ned has given me words to live by. If anyone gets irritated with me, it's simply because they suck. Awesome.

― teh_kit (g-kit), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 15:25 (seventeen years ago) link

It's a fantastic philosophy shared by sociopaths everywhere.

― Nu-Edward III (edward iii), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 17:47 (seventeen years ago) link

Not that Ned is a sociopath.

― Nu-Edward III (edward iii), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 17:48 (seventeen years ago) link

Thanks all - now I have 9 friends! I rool.

― ned trifle XIV (ned trifle XIV), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 20:13 (seventeen years ago) link

The girls of p0rn are back in a big way - TEN friend requests in less than two hours, when I magically haven't had any* in weeks.

*any friend requests from girls of p0rn, that is

This guy I hung/hanged out with last night, lamenting on former band members turned screamo dudes: "he's actually a hell of a drummer, but all he does nowadays is post pictures of his fucking sidebangs all over cryspace". CRYSPACE!

― nklshs (nklshs), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 18:27 (seventeen years ago) link

Not that Ned is a sociopath.

*whistles idly*

CRYSPACE!

That's beautiful.
