@BenBrent - i agree… if it is just a babbling kind of messages then it is really annoying. such as saying something really important in the head line but then in the message you say “Post Update!! Plz comment! <3″ Ugh…
I apologize for leaving this comment, I usually don’t do this but I have something important to say. I support Hannibal crossing the Alps. Thank you.
lol. they are annoying, but i think you are a riot.
Yes I do. Especially when they’re making it sound like my savior requires me to stand up for him online via mass message. I know God’s mysterious ways can but probably don’t include mass messaging. Unlike the contents of your mass message, I highly disagree that my savior is going to deny me entrance into His kingdom because I didn’t forward it or repost it to my FB, yadda, yadda. In my life and in my comments on websites I show that I am an advocate for my savior. Can you say the same?
Just disgusting. LOL
They really don’t bother me much.
…..says the man who just sent us one. I love your irony. but yes, they do get on my nerves I never respond or do whatever they ask.
Thanks. I’m glad that you’re thorough with your blogging, Mister Theologian.
Dude you just sent one out. >_<
It depends on the mass message. I think in the case of, say, a nuclear holocaust… I would appreciate a mass message heads up. “Hey, world’s gonna end.” In most other instances… who the hell am I kidding I never get mass messages. Sounds like a “good thing,” from the Martha Stewart quote factory.
It’s you. If you don’t send out copies of this comment to 25 of your subscribers, all of your children will be eaten by wolves.
What’s more annoying is the contents of those mass messages are nonsense… very nonsense.
care factor – 0
Yeah they are, which is why I reported you for spam and removed you from my friends list.
They’re particularly annoying if they’re about Jesus.
“The Bible is a book that has been read more, and examined less, than any book that ever existed.” – Thomas Paine “A man’s ethical behavior should be based effectually on sympathy, education, and social ties and needs; no religious basis is necessary. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death.” – Albert Einstein
“Question with boldness even the existence of a god; because, if there be one, he must more approve the homage of reason, than that of blindfolded fear.” – Thomas Jefferson
“It is a farce to call any being virtuous whose virtues do not result from the exercise of its own reason.” – Mary Wollstonecraft “To argue with a man who has renounced his reason is like giving medicine to the dead.” – Thomas Paine
I HATE THEM!
Whatever be the purpose, it has been established on Xanga that mass messages are annoying.
You are EVIL!!! Luckily, I was able to find the one message I needed to read among all the others.
I think I already answered you in a private message after getting a mass message from you. To me, they’re not so much annoying as a cheap cop-out. If you have a great message, be willing to stand for it and believe in it yourself if you have to, not coerce a whole bunch of people to align with you. Words are cheap, and mass messages only add to the cheapness. I prefer to show who I am by my actions and what I personally believe, not borrowed chatter written by some lonely, bored person drumming up support for his/her own ego trip.
Thanks for the example daniel san. I thought i smelt failure. Lol.
is that something they send out from some sort of “Orthodox” church ?
Well, you’ve almost inspired me, as a result of your latest stunt, to start unfriending some of the 300 odd “friends” I supposedly had. And oh by the way I meant it as 300-odd not 300 odd but both are apt, I supposed.
I’m still considering same.
I’ve been getting slammed with Jesus mass messages. I think I detect another drama conspiracy!
Rob_Of_The_Sky has convinced me. Satin is indeed Lord. A life changed, and all because of mass messages. Thank you, mass messaging, for saving me. <3
I rofl’d.
Mass messages enrich my Xanga life.
Mass messages? Annoying!? Surely you jest! I find them to be almost as awesome as telemarketers during dinner and the sound of fingernails scraping a chalkboard.
@bronze_for_gold - I noticed that ,too. He’s always contraversal.
No. I don’t get that many. Most are pointless though.
yes, consider them spam so I “thank you” for sending me one.
I don’t even know how to mm here, and don’t wanna know.
then why did you send one yesterday?
i never read them because they mostly always start in “i never send out mass messages BUT”. and yours was a dead giveaway because i know you would never send me a personal message from you to me about Jesus.
I never read any of them. It’s irritating that it happens, and everyday I get about 10 messages that start with, “I normally don’t mass message” or “this is the only time I will mass message.” Whenever someone sends that my respect drops for them about 5 points- at least if you’re a mass messenger own up to your douchebaggery and don’t try to play it off like you’re not one of them when you totally are.
Meh. To be honest, I don’t really read them. I glance at it, see that it’s nothing of importance, and then delete it. If you want to get my attention, don’t send me a mass message, because I almost automatically delete them.
Seriously, if everyone hates them so much, then why does Xanga even have it as an option?
So are we now supposed to call you TheoSpam instead of TheoDan?
My feelings on mass mailing
Are akin to phone solicitation
The folk they’re regaling
Respond with aggravation.
UNSUBXCRIBD.
srsly
Grrr! Yea, thanks Dan!
@motivateme2011 - He needed to in order to write this post. Lol
Depends.
They don’t bother me. I just delete them.
Didn’t you just send one out?!
And yes I find them highly annoying. Particularly the ones like what you sent out saying I’ll go to hell if I don’t send it to everyone. They’re so lame and if you ask me, pretty unChristian.
yess
I am more disturbed by people’s comments in here then in the Jesus message. Messing with people’s head is fun when you can get away with it. If you were on the receiving end of having your head tampered with, you wouldn’t find it amusing. If you are ever hurt in a hospitable bed about to die, you will say “oh lord please forgive me for being a jerk on xanga,” and then when you recuperate, you will do it all over again.
Incredibly.
Annoying… I thought I just got one from you?
tres annoying
I believe if annoying it is because used abusively. I think people who act like jack asses and create controversy/drama can be even more annoying.
you are on the same path as Charlie Sheen. Straight down hill.
Didn’t you just send me one today?
ha! i see what you did there.
I do not mind getting them, they are easy enough to delete but I do not like to send them too often.
It’s just you.
There is a delete button and it only requires the simplest flick of a finger to activate.
I find the responses amusing. I owe you a debt of gratitude for keeping me occupied on this otherwise boring Saturday. I especially like how seriously pissed off some people got. You make it look so easy!
Next time do the whole Mass., in Latin! make it a real Mass message! Get it? Mass message? Get it? Nevermind.
I do find mass messages annoying, but only when they come from the same person, repeatedly, over and over and over… promoting their next Big Post! Not once in a blue moon from you.
I am utterly amazed at how vulnerable people can be to loosing all emotional control over something as simple as an advertisement for a simple thought. I read it, ignored it and deleted it, but then, all the people who really hated it brought it back up. Like picking at a scab. A boo boo never heals if you keep picking at it… (Ha. I said boo b)
Speaking of advertisments. I went to the movie theater yasterday to see a movie with my wife and sat through 8 fricken minutes of advertisements. THE same stupid ones I see on TV! Now that was annoying!
Am I annoying you with my long comment? Probably not, I doubt you read them all anyway.
Welp, I’ll be seeing ya around…
Not only anoying — it’s WRONG to expect others to send out your religious beliefs under threat. That is what dictators do, and it is a part of why there is such rebellion in the middle east these days. Nobody should be expected to adopt the beliefs of others under threat of any kind!
Yes, but why did you sent one?
hahahaha
Mass messages are so impersonal. They are like sending one letter by snail mail to your friends and family and just changing the names on the top. They need to be personalized and for each individual rather than everyone. The type of people that send these don’t care about how one person feels or respects their personality.
Among those people trying to lose 20 lbs or more of weight, there is a lot of confusion about daidaihua .But, Pfizer was unable to create an economical substitute so they backed out of their marketing deal. The first scientific studies of this plant started in the mid-1960′s, but the secret to this plant was not discovered until nearly 30 years later.
If you prefer, Replica Vacheron Constantin you can download the same way, so cheap Christmas gift is a great idea for anyone who loves watches.Although these watches are simple replicas of the original brand models are so identical that even experts sometimes can not distinguish.
Yes….I do!! And funny, I got a mass message from you today!! Hmmmm…………..
Well played.
I hate the ones that tell me rec and read “there next post”
Seriously? If i am your friend it will SHOW UP IN MY UNI FEED if i dont want to read it i dont have to. the people that do this are not popular xangians.
I get them all the time. I don’t care…I just delete them if they’re annoying. I don’t bother flipping out about it like a lot of people do.
@SoapAndShampoo - You like Satin? Strange…I’ve always preferred silk…
Would you desire to produce your exclusive cheap Pandora ? Or a condition that could lead to prolonged and painful erections, such as a tumor of the bone marrow, sickle cell anemia, or leukemia; or you are taking any other medicine containing nitrates your blood pressure could suddenly drop to an unsafe level and can risk your life.

What’s a mass message?
@VeritatisAmans - my response exactly.
Annoying indeed.
annoying. thanks to you i just got my 3rd one. >.<
Depends on what kind of message it is.
lmao
Oh snap.
That does it. Your mass message is the polar opposite of the message you convey in your posts. Bye bye Dan.
Kett and I are now being bombarded by a ton of them. Fantastic.
it depends on the message, if it’s spammy, it’s annoying, but if it comes from the heart, than I appreciate the message even if it is a mass message.
@airbornerose - Same here. It’s annoyinggggggg >.<
@BenBrent - i agree… if it is just a babbling kind of messages then it is really annoying. such as saying something really important in the head line but then in the message you say “Post Update!! Plz comment! <3″ Ugh…
I apologize for leaving this comment, I usually don’t do this but I have something important to say. I support Hannibal crossing the Alps. Thank you.
haha, how about the replies to mass messages?
too bad there aren’t mass comments! =P
@Rob_of_the_Sky - FEED THE ELEPHANTS NOW!!
I just think it’s funny, how serious people are.
Yes. I consider them spams.
lol. they are annoying, but i think you are a riot.
Yes I do. Especially when they’re making it sound like my savior requires me to stand up for him online via mass message. I know God’s mysterious ways can but probably don’t include mass messaging.

Annoying
They scare me so I send them anyway.
@boilingicicle - argue with with you ! lol
if they mass message 3 times, I delete them.
Practice what you preach
It’s you. If you don’t send out copies of this comment to 25 of your subscribers, all of your children will be eaten by wolves.

@sweetboxc00kie - he is funny , isn’t he?
@VeritatisAmans - I see your facepalm and raise you a *headdesk*
I loooove them! Just like you!
@Dreckonskyr - I noticed that,too
yes, consider them spam so I “thank you” for sending me one.

@Thoughts_of_Motherhood - AGRREEDDDD!
…didn’t you just mass message a bunch of people?
@BlindSight22 - Agreed
Would you desire to produce your exclusive cheap Pandora ? Or a condition that could lead to prolonged and painful erections, such as a tumor of the bone marrow, sickle cell anemia, or leukemia; or you are taking any other medicine containing nitrates your blood pressure could suddenly drop to an unsafe level and can risk your life.
It’s you, it’s all you
