Title: Robert's REAL Myspace?
Post by: Carnage Visor on June 30, 2007, 17:57:25
I searched myspace and came up with many suspicious myspace pages for Smitty...none of them seemed real, they mostly just said, "I am the singer of The Cure" and had empty backgrounds...I'd think Robert would be a little more professional and maybe have more than 100 friends :roll:
I checked alot of them, and I was almost sure that none were real. Do ny of you know if Robert REALLY has a myspace page and where to find it?

Sure, a bit on the dull side. But does Robert really remind you of a typical MySpace person?

You sure that's the one? Says just 16 friends and a single comment...kind of hard to believe...

That's what I thought! I'd think the real Smith would have more than just 16 friends...and no, Robert doesn't really seem like a Myspace guy...I like how he's kind of quiet and reserved. It makes him more interesting. I just really want to have Smitty on my myspace...

With all the obsession with Myspace, I wouldn't be much surprised if he doesn't have a page at all, but just perhaps a band page with news and such, kept by someone else, which I *think* I've seen at some point... But can't be 100% sure, I'm not on there.

Yeah, it's not like I'll be like: "Hey Robert, bla bla bla" I won't bother him...but I really doubt that any of those are really his...

Is that really Simon Gallup's page? That one is suspicious, too.  :?

Everything is suspicious on Myspace

No, those are really them.  The young blonde girl in the top 8 is Simon's daughter.

How do you explain a single comment and 16 friends?
Title: Re: Robert's REAL Myspace?
Post by: rodney on July 02, 2007, 01:03:24
I read in some interview that the only reason why he set up the account was so that if he wanted to post information people would know it was from him.  He encouraged all of the band members to set them up.  Now if only I could remember where I read that.......

Really, does it make sense that the official Cure MySpace page would have top friends that were people posing as the band members?
Title: Re: Robert's REAL Myspace?
Post by: Aarna on July 02, 2007, 01:21:51
I say it's not a real page...

That's cool.  I think it is, but really, none of us have much proof to go either way.....which may be exactly the way he wants it.   :smth023

YOU SOLD me! I believe that is Simon's profile. It seems they're...pun intended...keeping a low profile.
Simon's daughter, account name ~!Lily!~, looks JUST LIKE HIM! Except a girl version. That is cool, and it's true; why would the official The Cure myspace profile have imitators as the top friends?

I am so excited! I am gonna try and add Simon and Robert.

I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for him to add you back. There's a reason he only has 16 friends and I suspect it has less to do with people not adding him than to the fact that he hasn't even logged in since May..

Robert just does not accept "friends" invitations, and that's why he just have 16 real friends. For many "friends" added (thousands) check out thecure myspace page.

Yes, it's 100% true, Robert, Simon, Jason and Porl all have their own Myspace page.
These pages were first started by Geffen because there were people acting as imposters with fake Myspace pages posing as members of The Cure.
So Geffen made a Myspace page for each member of The Cure, they didn't add any information to the page, they just opened it and made it empty and said if the members of The Cure want to add info and use their page it's their decision, but the main reason Geffen started the page was so there is no confusion about the "real" Cure members Myspace pages.
Geffen said the way to know the "real" members Myspace page is that they will be kept in the Top 4 on Geffen's official The Cure Myspace page :
http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=4118245

It seems Robert and Jason don't look at their pages, Simon used to a little bit but now not much, Porl had about 1000 friends but then he changed his page and made it a "private" page with now only about 100 friends.

Yes, Simon's daughter Lili is on Myspace, so is his son Eden (and also his band Violet Vendetta), also Porl's son Tod is on Myspace too.

Maybe Bob has msn messenger, too! :lol:
Have you got the address? :smth043 ;)

Yeah they removed their pages! I tried to add them but scared them off...oh I wish I could apologize I feel so stupid! Damn, I'm a f*cking idiot, why did I do that? I feel so bad about it.  :cry: Sorry, Robert. Sorry, Simon. I'm retarded.
Oh well, I got Rob Zombie on my friends list and TSOL...that's pretty cool. I guess I should stop requesting famous people I like, because they're going to start hating me!

Who removed their pages? If you're refering to The Cure official and Smith and everyone else in the band...the pages are intact and still running.

Post by: Carnage Visor on July 03, 2007, 02:19:22
Well, Robert and Simon's pages with the 16 friends are gone...and I feel bad about it because I didn't know they didn't like friends requests and I wish I could have respected that.

Post by: Aarna on July 03, 2007, 02:29:29

I checked and now re-checked the page, it's right there, intact
