You will have to elaborate a bit on that. Im not sure what you mean by a MySpace? We have a members photo gallery, and we also have a similar profile section in Members Only.

Ill do it for him.

Basically the idea is:

MySpace is a blog website like that of Bebo etc.

MySpace can be found here
http://www.myspace.com/

Bebo here:
http://www.bebo.com/

It is to my understanding that MySpace uses a similar system to bebo.
Because i dont know anything about MySpace ill say it like Bebo.


In bebo and other blogsites you can create "Bands". These are basicly homepages within Bebo etc where people can become "Homies". (Not a joke)

This page can be basicly used for anything, a group of friends, an actual band etc.

His idea is to make a page like this for Knights Reborn.

I cant see how this could be a positive thing, Blogsites are basicly used like a forum, for friends who dont use msn much.
We already have a forum, a TS, and a server. No need for a myspace thing.
I think its a nice idea for people who want to, to add each other in blog sites, but i think we should keep that more personal.

Things i find negetive about this idea:

1: People might not use MySpace.

2: People might want to keep RL and gaming life seperate.

3: People might not want other people to know where they live, most of these sites contain personal information for your close friends IRL

4: It would be something extra for the council to keep up. And isnt realy worth it.

i know a lot of ppl that use myspace but i dont, meh

i use both, the main difference is that myspace has the ability to allow the user to use html on their page, for example you can input pictures etc. using html'ing etc. etc. I think that the downside of this is that you experience 'difficulties' on other people's spaces (for example i have spent about 10 minutes trying to find the message button on my friends space before... how ridiculous is that)

bebo on the other hand is 'modulated' meaning that you just click the buttons and 'poof'- it happens for you, personally i prefer bebo, myspace confuses meh but i still use myspace regularly.

the bottom line is (as darko already metioned) that some people prefer to (A) keep their real life stuff seperate, and (B) some people also prefer to keep their location a secret.

i think its good as it is, we have a gallery for members and a profile thing in members only. As for an idea's forum- well isnt that what 'Anything Goes' and 'Interesting Stuff' forums are for, or what ever the relevant forum is (e.g. an idea for the server would go in server news prehaps- you get my jist)

I think MySpace is better than Bebo. Too bad too many losers and retards have to go on myspace and mess it all up.
Seriously.
WHATS THE DEAL WITH THE CHAIN BULLETINS!!! WHY WON'T THEY STOP!!?!?! :cry:



EDIT: Not sure if we still have it, but if you get into KR, you can run for HoR. Can't remember what it stands for but you can submit an idea and people will actually listen. :)

Well I have both myspace and bebo, but I only have a myspace account because people often send me links on msn and you have to have an account to view them. I use Bebo primarily because of the secruity aspect. I think you might have been getting confused between MySpace and Bebo Star, this is because as Saunby mentioned, within MySpace you are able to use HTML coding, allowing many script, hacks and vunrabilities to be used within someones MySpace profile. I also run spyware/adware scans daily and after using bebo for over 2 months I can safely say I have not gotten anything that I shouldn't have. With Bebo everything is pretty much defined to the point where you can only put what the Bebo staff want you to put on your page. I don't like Myspace purely because its a minefield for adware and spyware and i'd put money on the fact that over 90% of myspace users have no idea what adware or spyware is- which is the worrying thing.

More on topic, I don't think this is a good idea. Purely because my Bebo page can provide links to my friendship network (for a better word) that of which I would rather keep private, for my personal secruity more then anything. Also I just don't think it would really work. People are able to create topics as well as send each other PM's, so really having a MySpace style blog wouldn't really benefit KR.

The HoR (House of representatives) was gotten rid of about 6 months ago.

Its useless if you have no friends to keep in contact with.

I deleted my myspace a while ago, then made a music one to put all my Solo/Experimental crap on there.
I decided if I'm gonna have a myspace, it might as well have a purpose.
I change my password every week or so so it doesnt get phished.

 #16570  by Tidus
 
no darko its just a waste of times.. id rather just call them instead of messing with myspace typing lols

 #16573  by Grimm
 
myspace sucks. the basic coding got stolen/figured out by most major advertisers so all u get now is spam, useless ads, and bullshit. im close to deleting mine as i dont need it anymore.

i havent tried bebo so idk about it.

 #16575  by Darfin
 
MySpace is just addicting.
(to others)
I don't find it appealing anymore.
I guess Bebos kinda boring compared to MySpace, but Bebo isn't as stupid so GO BEBO!
