MySpace Bungles its Anti-Spam Efforts
I've made a habit of hating on MySpace and that other social network that shall not be named in this post. Yesterday, MySpace upped the ante on its suckiness by making it that much harder for me to reply to emails there. I received a message. I pressed reply, and this is what I got:
What does that even say? I failed the image verification three times.Is this really the problem, people replying to their friends with SPAM? So, a friend writes me a message about collaborating on some comedy project, and I use that opportunity to be like, "Hey, Baron Vaughn, you want some Vi0gra and Cial1s!??!"

wait a sec... you're a spambot? I was reading a blog post and suddenly I'm reading my junk mail folder. I need soem of that verification code stuff on my eyes, infact, that should be the international way in which we communicate in general.
hahaa... bahwahahahaaa.... mySpace verifications on everything*!
*except espresso, that needs no verification
see the thing is i want some cialis but i only trust reccomendation from my friends. they def fucked up, at least the MS one has a randomizer to get another image and also an audio thing to hear the letters being spoken by a computer voice, which is actually harder to understand than the image.
ps did you see baron vaughn in that movie trailer?
i left myspace couple of years back. just could not keep up with the spam and legal marijana sellers
