There's more than the 500 friends per day rule that can stop you from being able to get new friends, there's also the speed of generating friends that can do it. Source: http://forum.myspace-suite.com/viewtopic.php?t=209 http://forum.myspace-suite.com/viewtopic.php?t=187 is also about the same thing.
thats great info and soo true. the porn spamers people are ruining it for the rest of us that are trying to use Myspace as a valid viral marketing tool for legit sites.
If you are spending $7,000 on advertising, why aren't you just doing it legit and going through myspace?
That specific person is going through MySpace. However, he was just passing on the info to the rest of us. I learned this lesson the hard way yesterday: http://www.tylerbanfield.com/first-lesson-learned-dont-add-friends-too-quickly.html
I have been sending out about 450 requests a day and have heard that after a certain friend id the rules start to change. I would assume that new accounts would have these new permissions placed upon them while as the old accounts are grandfathered in. This is just based on limited info I have gathered while using Myspace bots, so take it lightly.
Interesting, and so is the post above this. I've had my account for a while and not done anything with it, in the last 2 days I've sent out 500 friend requests in about 2 hours or less and i'm not banned.
I think when using software such as MySpace Suite, as long as you use the pause function for at least 30 thirty seconds, you won't encounter any problems (Nintendo, feel free to throw in your two cents on this since you're using the paid version).
What makes people who use MySpace to lure people to their sites to buy porn any worse than people who use it to lure people to their sites to click on Adsense Ads?
I learned a little too late what the 30 seconds wait was for, so I didn't used that yesterday when I started using it on 10 accounts, and made the full blown 500 requests on each account!!! Then this morning I found all 10 of the accounts blocked with making friend requests. Today I made three throw-away accounts that I'll use to test some stuff out with. Right now I'm testing out making 100 requests with each one 30 seconds apart. If it doesn't get the lock out, I'll cut it down to 20 seconds, then 10, then I might try five seconds. I'm a speed freak, always trying to do stuff as fast as possible, so I hate having to do the pause thing!!! On another account I'll test out doing just 100 requests, but with no 30 second pause, though something tells me that'll be locked as at least one person has had accounts locked just from making 100 requests.... And I'll try spending a night making thousands of requests, with no timed pause and see if I only get locked out with making friend requests, aka still be able to do bulletins. http://www.adderrobot.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=291 has suggestions for new accounts.
OK, I got the two 100 friend request tests done. I'll let you all know in a day if the accounts have been blocked or not!! I'll probably do the massive thousands of requests test this weekend...when they're hopefully not working!!! I'll be able to make about 1,500 friend requests an hour...if mySpace doesn't stop them from being made after 500 requests.
Just sent out 500 friend requests for 3 days on the trott. All seems fine to me, I have 1010 pending friend requests and 499 friends.
i dont think my machine could fit in 500 requests in 1 day .. not manually although I hear there is a bot program you can download for free which does this for you
I have a paid version of adderrobot.com I did have mytrainconductor.com but that turned out too be kinda rubbish, so I asked the creator if I could change products, and adderrobot is cheaper so he's making a profit.
Day 1 of test results are in. 100 requests, with one request every 30 seconds. Account is still accepting new friends. 100 requests, with no 30 second pause between each request. Account is still accepting new friends. Today I'll test out 150 requests, with one request every 15 seconds. 150 requests, with no 30 second pause. I'll do this this evening after they've probably gone home!!!
