    Marketing with myspace is still happening.
    Although no one seems to be able to figure out how to bypass the new CAPTCHA. (Which probabally won't happen for a long time)

    The biggest and most annoying thing on MySpace now is that after EVERY message I send to a user using one of my fake accounts, I must type in the CAPTCHA code. Anyone know why the CAPTCHA code must be typed every single time?

    This situatuon doesn't happen on my personal MySpace account.
    Some how or another MySpace is able to recognize spam accounts from real accounts.

    Good point. Possible. Although my personal account hasn't been effected, and I sign onto it all the time using the same IP that I use when I log into my MySpace accounts used for advertising.

    I've made a brand new account and haven't messaged a single person. When I did, first thing I get is captcha. How cute. MySpace is genious now.

    Then I have no idea.

    Beyond the point, why are you marketing on MySpace anyway?

    age of account, activity you do on it, tons of factors

    i think friend requests you can usually send about 50 before captcha

    If you are getting visitors from different accounts then it is good for marketing.

    *gasps* are you suggesting that myspace members don't want to be spammed! The very idea, sir!

    Seems like myspace is weeding out the fake profiles and getting better at combating spam!

    Newer accounts have the captcha. I think it might be accounts with an ID over 7 million.

    AAAAAH! Now that makes sense. I knew I should've made like a thousand fake accounts in the past. Darn me.

    I have 17k friends on my myspace account. When I send out a mass bulletin to all 17K friends... I get maybe 5 visitors and 40-50 will take me off their friend list.'

    Unless I am marketing wrong, I don't think myspace is a useful tool.

    Note: my friends are all music lovers as my niche is music. Still not good for marketing.

    Haven't sent out bulletins yet, still in the friend adding stage. At least all I have to do is enter captcha codes ;)
