Is Myspace fucked or have I been hacked?

Everytime I go on the homepage to login, the "YOU MUST BE LOGGED IN TO DO THAT OMG" semi-window comes up. If I type in my details, it returns to that page. Last time that happened, I'd been hacked (well actually Conor was hacked and then they hacked me), but this time I have a much better antivirus thing on my browser.

Must be you. I just logged my profile off and back on with no problem.
An anti-viral on your computer won't keep it from happening, I'm sorry to say

That shit never happened to me - even when I was hacked - all they did was post shitty spam messages on mates' pages.

Wack...the directions to the show on Sunday were posted on my comments page. Could someone PM/paste me the last comment (in Spanish)?

I'm overlooking the fact that Conor doesn't like poetry, science fiction and cats and adding him as a friend.

That's because I'm a nice fella.
Oh I and I love cats. I just prefer dogs.

It's some internet fad bullshit. Those nerds haven't opened their curtains in 3 weeks, let alone gone on the streets, hence why they wear masks. What a load of alienated bullshit. How about if I called people who make "friends" via Xbox 360 a "cult" and prance around in a Groucho Marx mask? Wankers.

I dont disagree that they are nerds, but I find it funny that someone as painfully hip as you doesnt know the source of this mischief.

Haha...I just spent a week on the road. Internet fads are alienation. This kinda liberal handwringing is a load of old shite really, preaching to the choir about how Scientology's so wrong and like people should just like think for themselves man (ie wear the same mask and conform to a wack nerdy trend). Obviously the main appeal of Scientology isn't the religion, it's all about networking and conspicuous consumption. Only rich bourgeois fucks can afford it in the first place so let them fucking waste their money.

Im just gonna bring this in from the news thread so that I can call you a cunt without being temp-banned. Cunt.

Start a new thead dipshit.

And incidentally, the reason I mentioned being on the road is cos I missed all this shit and only caught the tailend whining of internet dorks like you.

And if I'm such a cunt, why you so desperate to be my mate? Calm down sailor...

Never read that, although I fucking loved Naked Lunch. I got a travelling round Mexico related anecdote about that book...I'll tell it to you over a Myspace message one day when we're internet fwends.

Incidentally, how come you spend so much time online? I mean, I binge from time to time but I would estimate that you spend over half of your waking life connected. Don't you have a girlfriend or mates outside of the anarchist scene? Don't you go clothes shopping periodically, or do you order it all off the Primark site?

At work, obv. Dont you have internet access at work, you do work dont you? On the friends front, luckily yes, my communism was something of a novelty at the party I was at until 6am last night, not a lefty in sight. Dont worry about me alan, I get by.

Right now I'm giving some English classes and I can hardly surf the net during class. You seem to be online late in the afternoon here too, when you'd presumably be at home.

Glad to hear about your party antics, although you can hardly call me a tryhard for my (apparently irritating) habit of dropping references to my personal life on here after that.

Is that Uropean for "destined to be lovers"?

I had the same myspace prob, everyone doesn't have it, but many do. Enough so that I was able to goggle a workaround. Try logging on at this url (and ignore the error messages).

And before anyone (else) asks why a geriatric hillbilly like me is on myspace, it is pure-dee self-promotion.

edit: the problem may stem from gov't surveillance of Third World regions, such as Mexico and Kentucky. Seriously, I am told that funding for all the helicopter flyovers hereabouts is funded from the same program that hassles Columbian growers.
