That, or this is the beginning of what the next few months are going to bring those of us who have loyally followed this hobby prior to the movie coming out. I call shenanigans.

I've already pointed out the auto-add to friends thingie, but that doesn't explain having 30,000 friends..... I call shenanigans too.

I'm not trying to sound like a spoilsport, it just sounds like bullshit that there'd be 30,000 insta-fans in 5 hours to sign up. I've seen this before with some of other insta-MySpace pages in the past but not being a part of other hobbies I couldn't really judge.
I mean seriously ... these people in the top 8?
If I'm wrong, then the movie folks were right in making the decisions that they made with the movie. If they're right, then they did the right things by ignoring what us hard core fans have demanded/requested/suggested. If they're right ... there are tens of thousands of Transformers fans who are very anxious to see this movie who have nothing to do with Botcon or being a part of the fan websites. I don't have a problem with this ... that actually proves my theory that there are tons more fans out there then there are members on the sites.
Ah, my mind is just reeling at the whole 30,000+ members in 5 or 6 hours on the Transformers Movie MySpace page. I am perplexed and would love to hear some more thoughts on this.

Wait, have they released that feature to tie-in with the movie, or is it just coincidence in timing?

(Remember those KB exclusive Universe repaints of Snow Cat and Downshift? I thought my finding them was news, but they'd actually been out a while by the time I found them.)

i got the auto frind thing for transformers, but i got a second one for clicking join the decepticons. theyre both the same page, so people who are "joining" the bots or cons are being added and counted twice, not to mention i see a lot of friends there that are onmes that spammed me when i first got a myspace page. half of said accounts were deleated for being spammers.
