Why there are 2 friends missing.
Posted on July 28th, 2007 at 8:13 am in Updates |
For those of you that have been running around thinking that we’re missing two people from the cast’s myspace profiles, stop. Yes, all of most of their profiles list them has having an extra 2 friends that we “can’t” see, however this is a well-known bug with myspace. When a user deletes his/her account, any person that has friended that account, will show that it’s still “added” in the actual count, however it will no longer show up as a valid link in their friends list.
In order for the number to correlate with the actual number of profiles s/he has friended, the user has to edit their friends, and remove their friendship with the deleted profiles.
All that this says to us, is that they originally had two extra profiles, but decided to nix them.

It tells us that one of the deleted friends was probably Tom.
nah, toms on one of them there, forget which, but Rob has a “This Profile Has Been Deleted” on one of his pictures if that help clarify thing some, or complicate, which ever, cause why would they leave that up
Jerry - Like I had explain, if someone deletes his/her own profile before removing all of their friendships, each person that they originally had added will still show +1 person on their list.
The friend has to manually remove the deleted profile in their friends list in order for the number to correlate with the actual number of current profiles.
Removing Tom as a friend just removes Tom as a friend; That won’t cause any bugs in the numbering of friends.
