Does "that no one wants" apply to all of those things, or just the ringtones?
taste is only something if it is yours.

Unfortunately, it usually doesn't apply to the first two.

This also happened to Al before right? :(

Some thailand guy is trying to phish my e-mail password in completely pathetic attempts too, considering the fact that I don't understand thai.

I hate phishers. Die phishers.

you know, there's this button you can click when you get those phishing messages... it says "spam" and there's one next to it that says "abuse". Just open the message and click on either of those, and myspace will (eventually) delete that user.

Eventually as in 1 or 2 years later.

Trust me.

Hey, it isn't that bad. Generally when I stop by my page and check out the people who have asked to be added as friends, by the time I get there, the profiles have been deleted because they were sleazy no good spammers.

But people who steal things from others websites or deviantart account usually get banned 1 or 2 years later, so I assumed that it would take the same for phishing.

Same here ... gets pretty annoying <_<

I haven't been phished yet and I've had mine for almost a year ... well, at least I haven't been that I know of, LOL. Glad Ruben got his fixed up.

I haven't been phished yet, but that doesn't mean they haven't tried. I check out peoples profiles before I add them, and if they're spammers I report them and don't add them. But then, if I don't have a pretty good idea who a person is, I don't normally add them anyway.
