Just wanted to let all the Fellow Myspace users know that they have be inundated with hackers lately.
I found my account had been hacked and was being used to spam "My Friends" with a Macy's card.
Please take the time to check your account and if you have a bulletin from anyone about the Macy's card delete it and let them know.
(I know I'm not the only one it happened to in the last 24 hours)
I changed my password, and deleted all the bulletins posted by the Fake Me...I then notified everyone that I would not be posting or sending out messages for at least 24 hours, so if they get anything from me before then to just delete it.
Like I said just an FYI....

Another thing to watch out for.... anyone who sends you a movie that apparently has your avatar in it. That's also a hack and should NOT be opened.

i gave up on myspace a long while ago... to many people who were just out for spanker their mokeys and so forth.. anyway the main thing to do is they are are going through accounts and targetting weak passwords...
make sure you use a password of about 10 characters which is a mix of upper and lowercase letters - add in a couple of random numbers within it all (not tagged to the beggining or end) such as Dftr7JnTRdJKhbG07Uyt, this is quite a strong password - I would try to do this t most passwords which protect your online safety. (Barrok has just changed passwords)

That makes me think, once Soolee told me elves like her have a lot of time on thier hands being immortal and all.No she makes me realize how casual the rest of the world must seem [visiting her myspace at her leisure and all].If elves do see the world with such patience,I wonder if they are like involuntary procrastinators...for Instance,you don't see the weeks or days go bay as mortals might.So what if you forget to let the dog out,or feed the cat?I bet elves don't even keep pets because of the way they percieve time...Every one of us has had to get one child or another a new pet...but like 100 or 1000 kittens or puppies!

Thank you Noble one for putting a boot up my a**e. Went to my place in the Realm of Myspace today finally. Glad I did have some cleaning to do. We don't procratinate Just don't hurry unless we are threatened. Then look out.

My most sincere appologies Soolee.
My Satyr-ish humor can often be a bit inappropriate.If I have offended you,I am truly sorry. If this heart felt apology is not enough,just tell me how to make it up to you.

Just wondering if I'm one of the few humans on earth who never used My Space.

You did not offend me dear Noble Knight. Liked your comments. Thanks for looking out after this poor weak Elven lass.

Probably not. It's not what its cracked up to be. I was going to use it to try my hand at creative writing but I'm not good at it plus I got involved in pbem/pbp games and now I'm hooked. Keeps me busy.

Keep me busy to. Until real life rears its ugly head, but real life pay the bills. :?:
