Thumbs down Severe hermit crab abuse

Myspace.com

I'm going to go e-mail PETA about it right now.


People with MySpace can tell Tom that they do NOT appreciate this at all.

Re: Severe hermit crab abuse

Wow. That video made me want to throw up. What despicable, disgusting behaviour on their part. Can't we get the video flagged or something?

Re: Severe hermit crab abuse

Wow. What idiots. Stupid teenage girls. That poor crab probably suffered a heart attack whilst it was being tossed around and flung into a corner. It's not letting me add my comment; the comment box like disappeared. Shame, too, it was a really nice one. I'll try again later, and report them to Myspace.

Re: Severe hermit crab abuse

That is disgusting! How can anyone take a living thing and just throw it around like that? I hope that girl ends up with the authorities on her doorstep with a cruelty charge.

Re: Severe hermit crab abuse

I can't get the video to play, but it sounds like I really don't need to. But did you happen to catch what category they put it in? Comedy and Humor?

I also posted a comment. This is just plain cruel. Yes, they put it under animals, comedy and humor!

Unhappy Re: Severe hermit crab abuse

Wow! That was terrible! I am not a myspace user so I couldn't comment, but all the comments but the last one were correct. I did see your comment about the PETA. Those were some stupid girls!!

Re: Severe hermit crab abuse

I looked for a flag button on there, but there wasn't one. For right now, you have to contact Tom about it (he is on everyone's buddy list on myspace.)

Re: Severe hermit crab abuse

I am not a member so I can't comment on it, I really wish I could. Maybe someone can tell the Tom person for me, it is tottaly disgusting and dispicable they would allow someone to post something like that.

Re: Severe hermit crab abuse

Oh, thank you. I had hermit crabs as a kid. At the time I don't think you could get them here, so when we went on a vaction to Florida we smuggled a few across the border. We had them for a long time, I like them.

Re: Severe hermit crab abuse

I can't seem to comment on it either! However, I did send a complain to customer service. It's in blue at the bottom of the page where it says:
About | FAQ | Terms | Privacy | Safety Tips | Contact MySpace | Report Abuse | Promote! | Advertise | MySpace International .
I'm not sure if that's what that link is for, because at the end (after I sent the message) it said something about stopping child abuse over the internet or some such thing, but at least the problem's been directed towards customer service.

I gave them the link of the video and asked that some action be taken towards the one who posted it, and warned them that the person's Myspace page was reported to PETA.
