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.

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

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.

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

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

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.

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

That would undermine my anti-spamband stance somewhat.

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

but they hurted MY feelings.

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

Well, why don’t YOU be their friend?

They never asked me ;_;

lol

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

As if it were ever needed.

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

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

‘proto-electro’? like thomas dolby and shit?

hi nrq!

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.

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.

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

lex is there a venue for thizzface yet?

we’ve only just started emailing venues

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?

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

NAEM OF SCIENCE

Odd name for a webcam...

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.

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

permanent rejection would make me feel really guilty

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

I sent you teh friend request, gkit.

prepare to be rejected!

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

prepare to be rejected!

wai 2b teh bithc, teh kit?

purely 4 teh lolz :(

:) xoxox

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??

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

I’ll be sure to pass it on to them!

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...

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

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.

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

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.

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

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”.

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

D4 P41N!!!1

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

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”.

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

It’s a fantastic philosophy shared by sociopaths everywhere.

Not that Ned is a sociopath.

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

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!

Not that Ned is a sociopath.

*whistles idly*

CRYSPACE!

That’s beautiful.
