Talk:Hi5

message: Immediately when I had registererd at http://www.hi5.com
I was asked for my password to my e-mail-address
and I find that very suspect. /G.Eriksson  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.224.114.36 (talk) 01:51, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Asked for my password to other site! 

message: Hi5 has a reputation for being full of old pedos wanting to groom kids for sex. I read in the newspaper that a ten year old girl was anally raped by a middle-aged man she met on the website. I think that the page should include this.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.234.159.97 (talk) 11:37, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Devil's Website 

message: I wanted to discuss this sentence:
"Hi5 seems to be mainly used by people to meet romantic partners from the same or different countries."
It seems like a POV. No reference or citation. I am for removing it, but I am new here, so I don't want to rush in. --Bundu 16:31, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. Go ahead, make whatever changes you like. If you do something that others disagree with, they'll change it back, and hopefully start a discussion. Foobaz·o< 02:46, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Romance POV 

message: I removed the following paragraph since it's potentially libelous:
:There are indications that this social networking site uses spammers to attract new users.  Several users have reported that after opening a new account, hi5 will send invitations to everyone in their email contacts list.  A quick search on Google reveals numerous reports of spam being received in relation to this service. 
This is true!!!!  Hi5 sends invites to email contacts list in a sneaky way!!!! I wish there was a way to blacklist Hi5.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 119.95.156.66 (talk) 06:40, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Spam" section 

message: i see that this article needs citations for the countries of Guyana and the Bahamas.  I read an article not too long ago from a Bahamanian website talking about how hi5 is most prefered there. ill see if i can find it and add it in :)

thread_title:  Citations 

message: I removed this statement:
"By 7th May 2008 the site is down. By 9th May 2008 the site is online."
For one thing, it's not good English; but more important is that it's simply of no consequence. The hi5 site did indeed have a DNS problem in early May but it has since been corrected -- besides which, it's not known whether it was the site itself or key DNS servers on the internet which were the problem. In any event, it's absurd to log every technical glitch of a web site as part of its Wikipedia entry. Jeff Mincey (talk) 21:53, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Miscellaneous 

message: Someone might want to clarify why this article is marked as advertisement because as I read it it didn't look too different from pages for Facebook, Myspace, etc.

thread_title: Marked as advertisement?

message: The "marketshare" section contains a logical mistake. It says that "hi5 is the #1 social network in over 25 nations across Latin America, Europe, Asia and Africa." and that "the site is virtually unheard of in Europe". Only one of the two can be true (or neither of them, I don't know). --J B 12:31, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Marketshare 

message: In Colombia, Facebook is the first social networking, and this is due to the mobilisation against FARC, via Facebook. More than 2 millions colombian are in Facebook, and the site is now the third most visited in Colombia, before Hi5, which is the 6th. Kormin (talk) 11:49, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Need an update  

message: After asking for Gmail login and password, this site automatically sends invitations to all contacts without asking for confirmation; my mother experienced this. Someone should investigate into numerous cases of this kind and write up a section. Michael Grinberg (talk) 15:26, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Emails 

message: Hello:
I included three other social networking services in the article and they were removed due to being 'random'. These services were not random as Hi5 has embarked on partnerships in different ways with all three. Hi5 is mentioned in the other articles as well.
Thank you! A. Ward (talk) 23:20, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

message: The launch date is listed in 2 places as 2014, but this can't be right. 173.106.70.217 (talk) 19:11, 5 February 2014 (UTC)
