Abuse of Myspace HTML
I wondered what the heck this was about. Had myself half convinced it was a Firefox issue, then saw the same behavior in IE. Check out this Myspace profile: April. The only thing on there that points anywhere is the “view” on the extra music player.
The whole profile is obscured by an image from toironorfold.com, which is owned by the band Making April, which also has a Myspace profile. Even the domain name points to the myspace profile. They have an amazing number of friends.
I don’t know what the heck the point is, but I don’t like being played.
Whatever their point is, they’re misusing the system.
Yep, I know I sound like a spoil sport…

This is the way they do it.
Example: fanpage myspace band u2, there are a lot of fans. They’ll join.
Emails are shared, after a number of emails, they’ll change the name and spam the joined users of them. Easy and stupid to fall in yo this.

Not quite, Jan.
Myspace doesn’t reveal the e-mail addresses of your friends, and they even remove e-mail addresses in messages. The only way to give your e-mail address to a friend is to write it out without the @.
