MYSPACE VS. GSB
I know a lot of people like Myspace and don't like people who don't like it.
deal with it.
Okay, you know how you hear about all those stalkings, harassments, kidnappings, and rapes that start with someone friending a young person on Myspace? Well personally, I think that it can be blamed on a lot of things. mostly:
Parents not teaching their children about Internet safety.
Friends not watching out for friends.
Not having enough moderators. Or having moderators that don't really care about their job.
Those are just the ones that I can think of off the top of my head. There are a lot more.
But really you know that there are like 54,831 registered users on GSB? And like billions on Myspace. On GSB, people watch out for their friends. If something happens to one of them, the whole group of friends hurts for them. Myspace on the other hand has to many people for that. There are little groups of people that all know each other and I'm not saying that its not great for friends wanting to talk to each other but really, why would someone put themselves out there and let all those billions of people all over the world oggle them? There are only about 40 people that I have noticed that are online all the time on here. I have about ten of those that I regularly talk to. one of them being a moderator. I'm not going to say that I am friends with her only because she is on the inside but because she really is sweet.
Kurtni is her name and moderatin' is her game.
I feel that if something happened on here, that that person's friends would do all they could to get that person to go away.
We are a tight knit group. we all know each other and we all look out for one another.
If I were being harassed by someone on here, I trust that my friends would come to my aid.
I'm not some naive teen who thinks that the Internet is great and everyone should be my friend, I know that there are dangers out there. And I want to do my part to stop pedophiles and perverts from invading GSB and ruining it for everyone. There are people on here that are twelve and have photos of themselves up on their profiles, I think they should be able to without worrying that there is someone looking at it and wanting to hurt them.
Thats my opinion. Whats yours?
deal with it.

GSB is my b*tch.
But seriously, it's safe here, far as I can tell. Regardless, I'm not gonna give anything out on any website.
Once, I told my mom I was hooking up with this guy Ben from YouTube. She flipped out (naturally) and told me that he could be a pedophile for all I know. So I told her "Mom, I really doubt that the guy who sits next to me in social studies is some 40 year old peddophile." That almost got me grounded.
Anyways, GSB's my b*tch, Myspace is that brown stuff that comes out a bull's ass. What's it called? Oh yeah... BULLsh*t!!!

Thank you all for your opinion!
Pretty Rave Girl, June 2nd, 2008 at 04:27:43pm
I like both.
I agree with RAGE. Dont be stupid and the problem on Myspace is fixed.
Dont get me wrong, I love GSB but myspace is better. Its more advanced.
Yeah you cant trust everyone on myspace but you cant really trust everyone on
GSB either. There have been a sh*t load of fakes on here.
SaveThePain, June 2nd, 2008 at 01:55:29pm
i think GSB is better then Myspace
though i have a myspace i don't use it

on myspace,
you find a lot more variety of people's interests, on here it's all pretty much the same, you go through trends, popular people all that good sh*t, and you get close to people and find out their fake, and then everyone else is like "it's personality that counts", and then you feel hurt and completely stupid.
On myspace you can actually talk to your real friends that refuse to make a GSB because they think it's stupid.
I mean on myspace you only get stalked and sh*t if your a complete idiot. Put your profile to private and only add people if you know them. And seriously, don't be a moron and give out your personals. It's common sense. Again, problem solved- don't be stupid.

I agree. Myspace scares me, personally. It's too big. GSB is much closer knit. We all know each other for the most part.
Not much, honestly.
Secondly: Cheechoo, don't be a moron. What's so great about myspace?
MikeIsMine!!!, June 1st, 2008 at 06:42:12pm
I was wondering when someone was going to make a blog on this!!! I agree, although I don't have a myspace, but have an account here.

myspace kicks gsb's ass
Cheechoo, May 30th, 2008 at 05:28:56pm
solution for myspace- don't be stupid. problem solved :]

I feel safe on GSB because I can relate to most people, and everyone is so nice to each other. Plus, everyone on here is obviously a GD fan, so it gives me something to do that involves GD.
I met one of my friends on here like last week or sometime like that, we talk all the time on msn and I honestly trust her. I know shes not a predator cause weve seen each other on webcams. She makes me laugh so hard, and we talk about GD all the time
GSB rules. I spend like all my time on here
:D
Awesome blog

I think people know what they're getting into on myspace, and they sort of take it for granted. Plus, I've yet to come across any weirdos sending me messages.
I think some parents are overly paranoid of myspace. It's not as bad as news reports make it sound, as long as you know what you're doing.
It's not like this terrible site where all these freaks are at. Just a regular old site for talking to friends and whatnot.
And here, well, I think here is a lot better monitored than myspace anyway. If someone says something a little bit off, they get banned.
so I don't think many weirdos would come around here, or if they did, they'd likely get banned.

On the old GSB people just looked out for people. Well, most of the time.
BREASTS, May 30th, 2008 at 10:30:08am
Yes i totally agree with you. I am always worrying about creepers on the internet. But other than that i like GSB more just cuz i feel people can be more like themselves. well at least i do.
*whatserface*, May 29th, 2008 at 11:37:19pm
