I think I've gone through the whole list, since I've added around 1,000 people on the script. Now the 2 warnings come up asking if want to do the captchas, then the myspace 400 person limit warning, then it just reloads and repeats the warning over and over. After going through the list, I now only have 245 in my mafia. Are there any suggestions to get this script to work better for me? EDIT: Alright, I messed around with a bunch of shit. I opened it deleted the script content and saved it blank, then reinstalled, and a bunch of other shit, I'm not even sure what, now it seems to work. |

So, is there a way to define what number you want to start at or where you left off? When I add people, sometimes I'm getting that warning I mentioned in the previous post, and I can't seem to get that problem to stop again. My guess is that the script thinks I've gone through everyone. Somewhere in there, I also had someone block me before I got to invite them, so when they came up on the list, the script stopped. To get around that, I found their ID in the script and deleted it, but that caused other problems, so I had to reinstall it. it then started up after that person that caused problems, but now I'm just getting that same page reload problem while it's not doing anything. I skipped captchas through a lot of it, so I'm wondering if there's a way to go back through the IDs and do the captchas, or skip around, or reset the script or anything. Somehow, the script says I've added 1900 friends, yet I have only 450 friends and 375 in my mafia. Sorry if that all seems like rambling, but there's my thoughts.
EDIT: I seem to have the reset thing down and the where-I-left-off thing down now. Apparently, the information is stored in the myspace cookie. I can delete the cookie and uninstall the script, reinstall it, then it asks me how many friends I added before, then starts where I left off. Also, it seems if you skip the captchas, it skips most of them and still counts them as added friends in order to keep track of where you left off. I just wish there was an updated list to get better quality adds and save time on invalid IDs and people who don't play anymore. and maybe a way to separate the captcha IDs that got skipped from the friended ones, but that's minor, since I could just go over the list again and anyone I added already would just show up as added. |

No, most people want to know why you are friending them, and will either refuse or ask you if they know you if there's no mention of why you want to friend them. I don't know where you got the number that 70% of the people refuse you for this reason. I doubt that's accurate. maybe 70% refuse you, but for different reasons. We don't know how old this list is, maybe most of these people don't play anymore, or maybe they already have 500 people and don't want any more. Maybe there's 50 other reasons why they refuse. Regardless, plenty of people are on that list, so 70% of 14,000 refused leaves around 4200 people that will accept and join your mob. A limit of 500 useful members shouldn't be a problem to reach. It eventually worked for me, I now have almost 600 "friends" in my mob (the last 100 was residual from previous friend requests). |
