MySpace & RSS Obituary Wall Remembers the Dead
September 22, 2006 1:42 AM Subscribe
MySpace & Obituary Wall Remembers Hello everyone. Now, before you rip me apart because I'm hosting this page, I want you to know that it does serve a purpose and I don't think there's anything like it out there. My RSS Obituary is a agreement between myself and the owner of MyDeathSpace.com. Even though our sites are not affilated at all, they like where it's going and I thought I would share. If you yank my membership to MetaFilter please consider that I'm sharing something that contributes to the online community.
Anyways, www.MyDeathSpace.com list the most recent deaths of MySpace members. With over 100 million members,a MySpace member dies almost every week, if my stats are correct, thus the need for a page to commemorate the dead. I've created a page http://www.dilby.com/rip.htm to commemorate not only the young MySpace members but also others who have died. If you think about it; if you have a MySpace profile or you live in a big city, YOU have a date with my Obituary website....sorry to say.
You can delete this if you want mods. Thanks for the opportunity.
This post was deleted for the following reason: thanks for the ok on deletion.
There is death everywhere here.

If a front page post be wiped away by the mods, the Internet is the less, as well as if a comment were, as well as if a project of thy friend's or of thine own were: any post's deletion diminishes me, because I am involved in Metafilter, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.Just something for the mods to keep in their minds as their fingers hover over the kill button.

tellurian, you guys are always trying to jump on someone. If I was trying to make money you'd see a shit load of ads on my site. Obviously you don't. I haven't made a dime from my site. Your reference link it just to try and smear me. Tell me where you see ads or any place to make money. Do you see products on my site, NO, ads, NO. So all that shit in the reference link above is bull.
I expected this. Why is this community so hostile towards people when they post stuff. I admitted I was hosting it, it's not like I'm trying to hide something.

You've done this before and you're doing it again? Oh my god.
Normally, I'd just snark about hanging being too good for you or something, but I won't, because I think in this case I might actually mean it.

Seriously, dude. This is what projects is for. Self-linking isn't allowed; if you're doing something you think is worth seeing, put it on projects. If it IS worth seeing, someone ELSE will see it and post about it here. Trust your own work, eh?

Well, the hostility is because self linking is banned. If you have a project that you think metafilter would enjoy, then why not hit the button that fairly clearly says 'projects'. You see, then others look at it and decide if it truly is the best of the web and if so there's another handy button that lets your fellow mefites post it to the front page. It's almost like there's a system that's been thought out. So, what about your link makes you different from every other poster on this page?
Also: if you're not trying to make a dime then why do you say " Advertisements: Rates: email foxknews(at)gmail.com"? Furthermore, this is a badly written post. You not only self link, but you spell out the URL later in the post.

Your site could be the greatest internet since sliced internet, and we would still condemn because you are violating the rules you agreed to AND because there is a welcome recourse for you surrounded by the same community.
That's all there is to it. No other way to slice this, your internet.

hey sawthesign, come on - be honest at least. Really, to promote this page of yours there were so many better and if so inclined to break the guidelines, discrete ways to get your linkies to the front page.
What you are doing right now is trolling for attention and still trying to drive some traffic to your site (with or without advertising).

You lost five bucks to make a point you can't make here because here, self-linking is against the rules, and here, that's nearly the only rule there is. And you broke it because, what, you think it's not the way it should be? You think there ought to be exceptions if they're valuable community services? Whatever your reason, you broke the rule, the only rule, knowingly, and you're gonna get banned, because those are the rules. If you think you're making a point with your post, you'd better make it fast, because this is delete-city tomorrow morning. Actually, probably in an hour or two.

Well anyways, nice discussion guys but I really have to go. I'm sleepy. Say what you want. Tell me to leave, wish me to be banished, I don't give a F#CK. It was fun. Also, blame your mods... if the community didn't want this thread on here, it should have been removed a long time ago. In addition, I'm not wanting anyone to bend the rules for me. If I broke it, then I did but it's not like you can put me on trial in an International court and sentence me. I was sharing something and for the sake of this argument, it was worth it to me. The ones who called me immature are the same ones who made immature comments so I think we all cancel each other out. In addition, I have made not one penny from my website so the smear tactics that I'm trying to make money is false. There were no ads on my site and I'm not selling any products. Lastly, if I wanted traffic I wouldn't have come to Metafilter. There are a lot of other places to get residual traffic and it's free.

Blame our mods for what? Sleeping? There are only two of them, and one is a volunteer. Are they supposed to do 12 hour shifts every day to clean up your shit? And, if so, doesn't it make more sense to blame you for shitting in the first place?

You haven't been here very long, have you? People comment the most about things they hate. It's not an issue of "supposedly". The 100+ comments is actually evidence against you (in the international court of law where Matt decides all this stuff).

sawthesign, in more than one of your comments here, you've written: "Blame your mods" It's a clear indication that there's a key point you've missed here: they're your mods, too. This is a community that you are a member of. You joined Metafilter. But with your willfull ignoring of the one and only steadfast rule, NO SELF-LINKING, you've made it clear that you had no interest in being a part of an online community. It's obvious that your intention here was self-promotion, nothing more. But, anyway, they won't be your mods much longer... As the Munchkins sang in Wizard of Oz:
"You'll be hiss - you'll be hiss - you'll be history!"

Aka Trae McNeely.
Introducing another MillionDollar website and it's not by Alex Tew; this site has a tradition feel with an innovative edge. Trae McNeely, Information Studies Junior, at the University of Oklahoma has created one of the numerous clone sites hoping to profit off pixel advertising, but his style and use of technology has set his MillionDollarNokia website a part from the others. His site is designed to make over $1 million dollars by selling billboard space and pixels for $1 each. Trae has invented a new form of advertising; Tele-ProductplacementAdvertising using his camera on his new Nokia 6682....
Trey McNeely's passion for technology began when his grandmother bought him a computer for Christmas. With the surge of the Internet, Trae taught himself HTML and began using Microsoft Office FrontPage to create a news Web site called The Dilby News Monitor. Revenue from the site helps pay for Trae's tuition at the University of Oklahoma, where he is majoring in management information systems. Trae also used Microsoft technology to apply for scholarships that are helping fund his college education.Nah, sawthesign, you're not into making money, just being a prick.

But where do you belong
Under the pale moon
For so many years Ive wondered
Who you are
How can a person like you bring me joy
Under the pale moon
Where I see a lot of stars
Is enough enough
I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes
I saw the sign
Life is demanding without understanding
I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes
I saw the sign
No ones gonna drag you up
To get into the light where you belong
But where do you belong
I saw the sign and it opened up my mind
And I am happy now
Living without you
Ive left you all alone
I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes
I saw the sign
No ones gonna drag you up
To get into the light where you belong
I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes
I saw the sign

I got a new life
You would hardly recognize me
Im so glad
How can a person like me care for you
Why do I bother
When youre not the one for me
Is enough enough
I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes
I saw the sign
Life is demanding without understanding
I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes
I saw the sign
No ones gonna drag you up
To get into the light where you belong

Okay, now I have the song in my head. I was avoiding it until you posted it, CC. ARGG!!
Of course, I'm the guy in high school last year who in trig, would sing "I saw the sine, and it opened up my eyes" every time someone mentioned sine just to annoy the teacher.

I'm guessing that around 80% or so of the people participating in this thread right now are enjoying it. You want to ban us all, or just the people who used the fave feature instead of their own browser's bookmarks, or co.mments.com, or del.icio.us, or the like?
Are you calculating that on a per person basis or a per account basis? The reason I am asking is that I am at least 5 of them. Including yours.

When I was a girl scout, we had an annual lip synch contest.
Please to be picturing 8 13-year-old girls choreographing a complex, Twyla Tharp-ish dance to I Saw The Sign. Yes, it was that amazing.
