    One node on there was (ironically) called Edge Mordarior. He had an incredible
    almost 800 friends... clearly most of them didn't have any sort of profound
    personal connection to him. He friended anybody who applied, no questions
    asked. I wouldn't want to *be* him, because that makes Friendster useless to
    him personally... but it's great to be one of his Friends because then you
    have a huge network to search for your interests/location/etc.

    Unfortunately, he and the #1 friendster (>1000 friends) got removed for some
    reason. Reason, do you know him? Any idea why he's MIA?
