Also, BadderAdder.com now redirects to OpenAdder.com Seems that the main marketer promoting badder adder, Michelle MacPhearson (who I believe helped develop Badder Adder) is now big on promoting Open Adder, which is an exact clone of Badder Adder. I have tried contacting Michelle and anyone involved with Badder Adder, but to no avail.I feel that, for everyone who purchased Badder Adder, we should be given the option of a refund or be given the full version of Open Adder free (since this obviously took over Badder Adder.) Any thoughts on this??
I also understand that a lot of the commercial myspace sites e.g. from big artists etc that get 100s of friend requests per day use bots like this to automate the adding process.
I know lots of people who have used these tools to good effect - as long as you're not spamming viagra or something and dont go completely over the top you can get away with it.
1. It's more of a spammer tool than Web 2.0 company.
2. It doesn't work. The strategy that is.
Successful guerilla marketing in Myspace is NOT adding friends and sending out bulletins. It simply does not work, and promoting a company that promotes that as a viable method doesn't make sense to me.
Myspace is all about building real relationships. It's actually a heck of a lot of hard work. There is no easy quick fix.
This site may have a nice design, but it's not a feasible strategy for anyone who seriously wants to tap into Myspace.
That's what friends are for...
"
I think MySpace's theme song should be that "Why can't we be friends? Why can't we be friends?"
Word.
As a programmer of similar tools, I can say that without a doubt this is the most dishonorable areas of internet marketing.. absolute pain the ethics.
BUT...........................
badder adder doesn't work anymore.
It wont add more than 30 people without crashing. it wont get by the catch-pa.
Badder adder know this but don't care about this.
I see a lot of affiliates of badder adder complaining of non payment of affiliate commissions.Kill that bicth
Personally I wouldn't give 2 cents for the junk software, but hey let it be people.
It's similar to Ytunnelpro everyone on the net was complaining about it, and why? Because they where jellouse, after all their not getting a cut!
Think about it, the average blogger earns about $50/month from adsense while programs like badder adder make the programmer rich.
All the more reason to be envious!
I loved the program! Got upgrades to v2.3 and then v2.4 and was using it responsibly (not a mega-friend whore by any measure, it just made it very convenient to automate the leaving of comments, sending out targeted friend requests, etc.).
Starting in mid-November 2006, I submitted a support ticket. Got a form-email back that didn't address the problem, but closed the ticket as if the problem had been solved.
Submitted two more support tickets since then, for two different problems. Only automated replies in return and, to date, none of the problems has been fixed.
Meanwhile, the comment feature stopped working completely. Then recently I noticed the bulletin feature stopped working as well.
Through all this, I cannot get a real person to address my concerns; even the automated replies no longer seem to be being sent.
I feel like Michelle has just disappeared from the face of the earth, leaving Badder Adder as an abandoned product. That makes me mad because the original ad that I responded to contained a personal assurance from Michelle herself that she was a real person and was committed to not abandoning her product as some of the other bot-programmers had done. I believed her, and here I am regretting my decision.
DO NOT BUY THIS SOFTWARE
I used it for personal promotion and affiliate promotion but
It just stops working and people don't accept you and
well, just look at myspace.com/badder_adder
the mere's sofware developers myspace, they don't have that many friends ...
this is the funny part
extracted from their sales page:
"Don’t forget that your purchase is protected by my 100% Satisfaction Money Back Guarantee. "
I have asked for a refund over and over and over, and they are just ignoring my request. It's getting close to the 30th day so I won't be able to get any refund by then. They close my tickets ( in the support area) ignoring me!
and when I want to talk to an online representative they send me to the page where I have to submit tickets, for what? to get ignored over and over again...
This is just pure fraud for me and I suggest you tell your friends, let's not help these people get rich scamming us.

badder adder is really a scam if you actually buy it LOL It fucks up all the time, even for the ones who do buy it.
Go here for the crack, update it to the newest version of badder adder and run the crack prog, it'll still work!
www.screennameforum.com/Badder-Adder-20-Cracked...
Alot of cracked software and personal xxx passwords at bangteens.net and shows how to crack your own passwords, also includes loads of cam videos... All in one porn site.
This is why they don't take paypal anymore, doesn't work like it saids. The b*tch saids it'll bypass the image code while adding friends "WRONG" it'll show a profile, yes but how you gonna extract 3,000 ID's and use a dummy account thinking myspace will delete the account, send the requests. Only get maybe 30 adds and 40+ views.....
Phhhh, lies!
Thanks
have submitted 5 tickets to complain, and only got a generic response. I want my money back, but they have no other contact other than the ticket submission page. THIS IS A SCAM!!! I wish i would've done some more research on the company before I bought it. If anyone else knows how or where to get ahold of michelle macphearson or her company, please let me know!!!
the same exact thing happened to me with Badder Adder and they won't give me a refund either, even after my disocver card went after them. did you ever get your refund or get this resolved or find a way to concact the losers who work at revolution tilt/badder adder?
Your help would be MUCH appreciated. thanks!

Never have I seen a program have the ability to store users information in a database that allows for COMPLETE autonomy when targeting a demographic.

This thing has more options...it would take months to learn it all.
You should use them to accept friend request, not for spamming...
myspace friends are not real friends, myspace is not a real place.
but for musicians and bands myspace friends are helping with the music scene. its what its all about.
i'm gonna get loads of bad comments now!!!
Hi there
MySpace has shut us down, unfortunately we cannot sell, distribute or even update Space Station anymore.
If you are having trouble logging in, then you can still continue by pressing any of the STOP buttons and completing the login process by hand.
If you require a refund, I will be more than happy to do that, but I will need the Order Number on your invoice... alternatively, I can give you a free licence of our new software, My Friends Manager. Here's the website that explains what it's all about:
www.myfriendsmanager.com
Check it out!
PS. If anybody out there finds a bot as good as their's,that will send comments, let me know. LoveForYouMeTo@aol.com
My page got banned by myspace. booh.
be careful.
It actually has a lot more than just a bot - you can download videos, synchronize your friends and a lot more.
