    No they wont go down because most software I have seen is "for educational purposes only".

    Anyways you are limited to 500 requests per day, but I mean I HAVE like 1,500+ friend requests that I have to accept every day lol.

    Can someone tell me what might be blatantly obvious to everyone else... how does adding friends to your MySpace profit turn into traffic for your site?

    Surely this is against MySpace's terms?

    It is why myspace exhist.. Bands, organizations, racing teams, community projects, even movies all broadcast information to there "users" friends over myspace. It's an Opt-In service, if they accept you as a friend.

    It is against MySpace TOS to mass email, message, and comment. In their TOS they mention that doing so subjects you to $50 fine per Offense (ie message). How they hold you to that is unknown. They'll just terminate your account. I have a few accounts I use just for advertising, a couple even for adult sites. Not one has been terminated.

    I have an account I marketed in a similar way. To promote my poker site, I had a hot girl pose in a shirt with the website URL on it. Used her face and account as a promotional tool to get people to sign up. It worked great until they passed the bill against gambling sites and I decided to sell it an focus on other things. I'll do the similar tactic in future sites, advertising on MySpace is way too easy.

    IMO, MySpace has been growing too fast to worry much about 'terms'.
    Also, I can't stand all their flashing banners, but I guess people get used to it.

    Just post in your myspace blog and send a bulletin. Even if no users read your blog, bulletin, the searchengines do.

    Adder Robot is the only way to go for me.... I bought it and used it for a couple weeks, and before I knew it I was up to 4k friends.

    I think 500 is kind of a myth. It really depends on personal circumstances. I know someone who got flagged after sending 160 requests in one day. Gotta play it safe. Especially now after the crash, they're twice as vigilant.

    A good trick is to find popular profiles with a lot of friends that still allow html comments. Some profiles get 5000+ views a day and they'll see those adverts. Before myspace had AllowScriptAccess = "Never" enabled for Flash, I'd embed swf's with popups on a 10-20 second delay. Cant do that anymore tho.

    You could also get a 2nd account, and do exactly the same only this time use a slightly overweight, middle aged man in a bikini to see if humour sells better than sex.

    Sounds stupid but it could work :D

    Hahaha

    I have never done a direct comparison like that, but in general, it seems like a good looking girl attracts twice the attention of something humorous.

    Is that really worth much? What does a bulletin post to 4000 'friends' bring in for ad revenue?
