Blue Collar Comedian’s Rant Draws Swift Resolution
Comedian Ron White issued the following warning Monday afternoon:
I’m begging you all – please STOP with this Apps crap….
I will NOT “click here” to find out how much you think I’m worth,
I will NOT “click here” to unwrap my human gift,
I will NOT “click here” to find out what job you’ve “hired” me for,
I will NOT “click here” to find out what you scored on the movie quizes,
I will NOT POST ANY OF THESE COMMENTS.
Every day I click the link to click the box to BLOCK these comments from happening, and every damn day they show up again. If there is anyone in the MySpace help room who can help me get this blocked, I’d love to hear from you.
FOR THE REST OF YOU: I WILL BEGIN DELETING YOUR ACCOUNTS FROM MINE IF YOU CONTINUE TO SEND THESE TO ME. MY TIME IS VALUABLE AND I’M GETTING WAY TO MANY OF THESE MESSAGES.
A few hours later, the Blue Collar comedian posted a “thank you” to MySpace members for resolving the issue.
Since my previous bulletin, several thousand of you have stepped up to try and help. I think I may have finally figured out how to block the Apps. On the Apps page (to which there is a link at the top of your MySpace page), there is a box to click to remove the check mark allowing these as comments…. I had done this several times, but it kept checking itself back for some reason. I learned that if you go INTO the app that’s hounding you, there’s a link under ADD THIS APP. Don’t add the app, click the link that says “report this app” and inside that screen is where you find the thing to click “block this app”.
For the three of you out of nearly 70,000 that I pissed off, I’m really not that sorry. If you didn’t already know I’m an asshole, you weren’t paying that close attention anyway. I was just trying to make a point.
The Tater has spoken!
