I'm not worried.

People go to MySpace to make a profile and mess with their friends profiles. Every once in a while they will post, but their member to posting ratio has got to be horrible. I don't know anybody who uses MySpace forums, but I do know a lot of people who use MySpace profiles.

People do NOT go to forums for cool profile pages. Sure it's an added attraction if it fits your forums "crowd," but it's not something that most people care about. Focus on forum content, not profile content. :-)

I predict MySpace will become the Geocities of the 2000 decade. Only time will tell though. I personally have never liked MySpace and don't really have a use for it. Sooner or later it will be purchased by Yahoo and put next to their Geocities link. :-)
