It is only a problem because of people.
People are the reason why myspace is "bad" not myspace.
Myspace if just like the rest of the internet, a place for porn and perverts.
Anything on the internet is bad, bad because you can get kidnapped by anyone who wants to find you bad enough.

Yeah it's impossible to tell if the signature is legit, but it would also help to keep kids safe.
I still, don't think myspace is a good place for anyone under 18. Allot of teenagers do stupid things, and myspace could just be another opportunity for them (us) to do something stupid.

If a kid really wanted to go get stamps, they could.
"Hey teacher, in one of my social studies classes we are sending letters to our government, can i have a stamp?"
"There you go, run off and play little girl/boy."
That is just one way to get stamps.
A 16 year old girl wants to get on the site, they get in their car and drive to the post office.
Boom, stamp there.
And 18 years old?
If you are saying that only 17 and younger get kidnapped you are very mistaken.
Yes there is a lot more kids that get kidnapped, thats why they call it kidnapped, but you don't think adults do either?
I think it happens more then you think.
Look at down in Aruba, that one girl that got kidnapped.
There is many ways around that, it is still not as safe as you think it is.
Sorry if i seem mean or anything, but i have a very strong opinion about this.
