Noe-a-days, people are bugged with forwarding all those crap-scraps like 'HEY ITS DIANA FROM DIRECTOR OF ORKUT AND WE HAVE ONLY 57 NAME.......blah **** blah ****' and the other one about some student who is asking for some donation.

That powerscarp thing is really playing a havoc in these. People mindlessly forward it to everyone in their friends list.





Another thing is that when people scrap you with messages like 'Hi dear, how are you, I am fine, keep in touch, bye' using powerscrap, i,.e, they scrap everybody the same, it is so impersonal that I deleted such friends from my friends list. I am on orkut to network with my friends, not to collect and delete their forwarded garbage .

Yes.I too hate this spam.What to say most of the people on orkut find it true.Most of my friends ask me orkut is closing send this & that.
All crap.Also now the media player scrap is becoming popular.When will the people learn??*gigasmilies.googlepages.com/bsod.gif

orkut is rapidly declinign in the feel gud factor...the earlier doughnut probs are being replaced by user created menace ...being left unchecked by admins..they should provide some option to block all 3rd party scraps and other things...so tat users can selectively set if they want to receive such scraps or not...ewven images and videos....they must provide option to disable...
