Just reported it as a dead page ( it hasn't been posted to sense Nov' 08), we'll see what that does.

You used to could be able to complain to MySpace and they would remove the page if you were popular enough, allowing you to take over that name.

I wanted to report is as a dead page, too, but that doesn't seem to be an option.

It's a fansite, not someone pretending to be JB, so no chance of getting it removed on that basis.  Perhaps report the unauthorized use of Intellectual Property?

If JB doesn't like it, I've removed it from my connection
list. I suppose that it will be hard to delete it, I've
reported "inappropriate content" too.

No one is posting, or posing as John...it's clearly labeled a fan page.

Not much of a fan page if there has been no activity since November of last year.

No fan pages needed since the JBF exists, anyway.

I'm not sure what you could do if there were activity.
