Lapiacery Era (2005-2014)

In a report on Lapiacery newspaper, millions of sex offender have accounts. An old woman stated that the site should be shut down; her profile has a picture of herself takin g asponge bath and "no one wants to be her friend". A younger girl states thar she has ten thousans best friends who are actually stranger who stalk her.

In a later report, over 8 million registered sex offenders own a MyResi in 2008. According to the article, the site is a favorite teen hangout. As a result, many predators have been highlighted on television shows that entrap men who target "hot teen girls."

By 2010, My Resi Online was one of the most visited website of the city, but at the same time, according to a report, it was the worst website for finding roommates and residence friends, as the majority of them only wants "nasty things".

Aside from each person's profiles, there are other stereotypes drawn from MySpace and Facebook such as cyberstalking, people's need for other people to comment on their pictures, attention seeking, and dating website spam disguised as women's comments.

The Authority Era (2014+)

By 2014, My Resi Online has completely fallen out of style in the public's eye. No one uses MyResi anymore, thanks to the introduction of ButtBook, and has become, in their own words, a "ghost residence of the internet" and is being forced to sell its domain name. Not even a one billion dollar investment from the "benevolent" founder of Lapiacery Infrastructure could save the platform.
