    Clarifying what you mean by "bad" would help answerers field this question. However, you can try the service and judge for yourself. If you mean perverts and etc., well they are everywhere on any service you use. See my answer here regarding the differences between MySpace and Y!360:

    http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Apuv....

    Just learn how to protect yourself online and you'll be alright. See http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/360/guidelines/sa... .

    If you want to delete 360, go to http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/edit/changing_use... and click the Account Deletion link. If you read through the text, you will find this will also delete all associated services for that account like Yahoo! Mail. I recommend removing any content that you've added to your 360 before deleting your entire account.

    BUT if you don't want to completely lose your Yahoo ID, then I suggest removing all content and information that you added to Yahoo! 360. Make all your settings (basic info, blog, communication, and every module on your "My Page") set to "Friends" or "Just Me (Private)". The "Just Me (Private)" setting is preferred, but if you don't have that option choose "Friends." Delete all your friends (see http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/360/friends/frien... ). Change the background back to the default version - either called the "custom" or "classic" theme. Then, that's it.

    You can't completely get rid of the 360 functionality without deleting your entire Yahoo account (mail, photos, etc.). You can only make sure no one who you haven't invited can view a feature and make sure that there's nothing there to view.

    NOTE: If a COMPLETELY deleted account doesn't result in a deleted 360 page, contact CUSTOMER CARE by clicking the button at the bottom of this page: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/edit/registration... or use the ABUSE FORM at http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/360/abuse.html?fr... . It's possible that you won't be deleted COMPLETELY from the user registration database until after 90 days.

    The Yahoo360 page once opened, is your profile page and you cannot go back to the old profile page you once had.

    If you want to get rid of it, delete all that you have there and get a new Yahoo ID with a new name. However, with a new name you get a new 360 page anyways.

    Yahoo360 is due to migrate to a new name (no more 360) and with new features in a few weeks.
