Ok I noticed there are alot of members that use Myspace as a website which Is cool and all but just randomly surfing today I clicked on 5 "view my website" links and they goto a myspace profile thats set to private.

What good is this? Its like saying here is a link to my dead end. Do they expect me to add them to friend list ?  What if I don't have myspace? I wonder if these people even realise they are doing this.

I agree I hate when profiles are set to private. They do it mostly to keep out random friend requests which is fine but in this case if your telling people to view your webpage for networking purposes then it should not be set to private.

Some myspace profiles have dirty little secrets not for public consumption.

I like myspace, you can read about my non-photographer side; like books I read & PC Games I play (I have killed too much time on Battle for Middle Earth II)

My MM page doesn't have a direct link to my Myspace page but my address is listed if you want to see it. Why is mine private? My dad doesn't need to stumble on some of those pics. He knows what I do; he just doesn't want to see it. And he can easily access it through my brother's page if he wanted to.

If my daughter ever do nude modeling, I would like to see those pictures. But I don't have a daughter, so I go around and see nude pictures of other people's daughters.

I have two myspace sites.  One personal and one for networking.  I only list my networking site on MM but you could access the personal one throught the professional one.

How can you network if you're set to private?

I don't have my Myspace linked here at MM. I have my OMP port linked. But I do give my Myspace address. And I also have my Myspace set to private. I'd rather not have it set to private. But having an internet stalker for three years, has kinda' forced me to lock it up. Lol...

I set mine on private due to a fellow and his friends who make up 5000000 profiles and harass my myspace friends... but if I recognize a name on here who adds me to their friends list, then I accept... simple as that... I know I'm annoying!

Recently the same thing has happened to me, people responding to a casting with a myspace page set to private. I just delete their response and keep going, I can't cast what I can't see

I have two pages, one for networking and one for my everyday life. The one for my everyday life isn't set to private, but you must know either my last name or my email address in order to send me a friend request.

Myspace will delete a person's page if they see nudity or profanity being shown. however, someone actually has to report this page in order to have it happen. There are so many myspace pages that show nudity, they won't find them all unless they have a LOT of time on their hands.

i agree it is annoying but at the same time people dont like random people in their buisness or maybe they just dont want just anyone or stranger as a friend?

i put mine on private b/c i dont like other people in my buisness..unless they send me a friend request like i know them or something....

I find myself denying the majority of the friend requests, because a lot of these people are sending the request and not even sending me a message or anything, and I don't just add whoever to my friends list.  But I am happy that I've been reconnected with a few of my old buddies I haven't talked to/seen in a while.  Today I got a friend request from the guy I had a lil' somethin' somethin' going on with back in college.  smile

I had mine set to private cause I get comments from 15 year olds that are sexualy oriented and I am not cool with that, so I pre-screen them, then they can see my pics.
