A Friendster Quandry

Back in the good old days before MySpace had become the ever-expanding blob... err, social network girding the internet, I was a loyal user of Friendster, and because they didn't have groups, musicians or other things to connect fans, I sort of fudged things and made a fakester for a certain musical act who shall remain nameless(because profiles have a tendency to disappear when they are publicly acknowledged). I made it clear that I wasn't the group in question, and I quickly gathered the requisite 500 "friends" for them, and all was well.

Fast Forward about 30 months, and I notice this group now has an official profile at MySpace run by their long-time manager (who is very friendly to fans of the group and very accessible on their official forums and at other venues around cyberspace).

I really like this band, and on some level, I sort of want to turn over that account to their long-time manager so that it is in more "official" hands, but I don't know if I should, because I am not really hurting them or their exposure levels.

What do you think I should do with this account?
