OK CHILDREN! PAY ATTENTION!!! That is the definition of "TESTIMONIAL". Testimonials are NOT pictures/video/audio!!!
You know what I’m talking about…these ones:-

Sure they’re cute but they are NOT testimonials. This is precisely why I don’t write testimonials…although I do enjoy receiving them…something tells me that I’m gonna be very unpopular in the receiving testimonials department after this…oh well, think of the bright side -if I were into writing testimonials, this would be on everyones page (click and zoom in!):
I have just updated my testimonial profile with 15 "non-testimonial" testimonials(NTTs) that I have kept hidden away…They will be there for your viewing discomfort until for no longer than a week before I remove ALL NTTs from my profile. The objective of this post it to urge you all to do the same!

May i also point out that testimonials are not messages that say ‘I miss you. How are you?’ which some people are unaware of. lol (i noticed the excessive usage of exclamation marks and am trying to rid myself of the habit. I shall find an alternative way to express my excitement from now onwards)
Keep on going btw. good job so far heheheh

Do you know how long those testimonials were sitting there waiting for me to approve them? i guess the world of friendster has evolved. lol I can’t stop people from writing me stuff like that but i dont do it myself. heheh. btw i actually wrote to the authorities of frienster a long time ago concerning this matter but no reply or action taken.
