Rooster Teeth is to Myspace What Maddox is to Richard Simmons
While MySpace is a largely-popular social website with millions of users, Rooster Teeth wins by "Quality over Quantity" in every conceivable category; including ones that require theoretical physics and/or pseudoscience to exist. But because you're probably skeptical (or never heard of Rooster Teeth), here's a fair, unbiased analysis of why Rooster Teeth stomps colons and Myspace sits in a corner crying.
1. Rooster Teeth's Network Topology Isn't Shitty
I doubt I'll ever actually see their network diagram, but based on the performance I'd have to guess that Myspace's network is held together by gum and paper clips. Rooster Teeth, on the other hand, is able to effectively and efficiently handle over 2,000 users at any given time without server lag or downtime. In fact, Rooster Teeth sometimes loads faster than Google's homepage for me (depending on the page I'm opening, of course). Point for Rooster Teeth.
2. Rooster Teeth is the Pinnacle of Code Optimzation; Myspace, not so much.
Every other page on Myspace reads: "Sorry, an unexpected error has occurred. This error has been forwarded to MySpace's technical group." These errors are so frequent that I'm tempted to hack into their systems and change the message to "Sorry, one of our expected, frequent errors has occurred. This error has been forwarded to MySpace's technical group, where they will shrug it off and ignore it just like every other error report they've ever received." Rooster Teeth? I've never seen an error message on their website and I've had an account for 270 days as of this writing.
3. Content!
When you open http://roosterteeth.com, you get treated to a hilarious web comic, updates relevant to the demographics of the Rooster Teeth community (gamers, mostly), and occasionally an update to one of their many machanima series. By contrast, when you open http://myspace.com, you get inundated with useless videos, unwelcome promotions, and uninteresting bullshit. It goes without saying that Rooster Teeth wins this point by a longshot.
4. Community
The community is the backbone and defining entity of any website; these two are no exception. The Rooster Teeth community is (generally) well-mannered, intelligent, logical, and has a grasp of grammar. Myspace? "wel lyk u dont ned 2 h8 onu s, dawg." "i cut for attentio what is ur problem your just jelis ofm y byou-T." I believe I've made my point.
My Economics teacher believes that "Myspace will be the downfall of society;" I couldn't agree more. If you happen to be a gamer, a nerd, or otherwise not a dumbass, Rooster Teeth is only a URL away.
