Friends from JF on Facebook?
Do you have any friends from JF on Facebook? I would like to have some from here, because I really don't want to look like a freaking loner to the woman I love who's also my friend on Facebook (I currently have 3 friends there).
It would also be interesting to see what you look like in real life. And yes I have my own profiler pics there, so you can judge whether I'm ugly or not... |

i do have few friends from JF on facebook :).I won't post my profile link but if anyone wants to add, sent me a pm xD.Oh n please i hate people who add and don't talk >.<
|
I have heard on the news that members of facebook should be very careful what they post on there plus what photos they post as it could lead to many dangers in the wrong hands because everything is too easily copied and spread everywhere so do be careful what you post and who you befriend.

oh yeah maggots yeah
Maybe i put my own here too , feel free to add me...... http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000083066710

After all, by default, they have the ability to post on your wall, they can tag you in photos, comment on a comment, etc. Their friends will also see what they posted on your wall - even though they've never even heard/met you. Personally, I only befriend people who I've met in person. |

I mean for poop's sake, Jambo, you just gave out personal info to Sitron who's probably just a troll D: |
Quote:
I only friend people I know personally in some way, so I have around 40 friends :P Even then my settings are lock tight and no personal info goes up, and never ever do I tag myself in that stupid 'place' feature it has now. I'd also rather die than give my FB page to a troll like Sitron too XD So I agree with Cyberbemon - if anyone wants to add me then PM me first, because ain't no way I'll add any ol' random XD |

i have a habit of checking my privacy settings every week :D lol..yes one advice i'll give to anyone is using random apps for eg: "how hot are you" ,what will be your wifes name" all that kinda stupid apps..lol, an app can access all your information so don't use that and stay away from random pages..they do the same shit..and why would people put their phone numbers? o_O and keep a separate list for people you know and you don't ! |

Why send out surveys, search bots, etc. when people happily volunteer personal information, tell us where they are, what they're doing, etc. |
I have to agree with SP here and Robin. Our government must know more about us than any CENSUS would ever convey.
Is that why Our govt is so keen to get everyone on LIne? Be careful and do not identify yourselves either. Ps someone here even told us their surname-- so easy to trace from that. |

I think Facebook and social networking sites are mainly just used by businesses and the like to get information about consumers, but personally I find that more alarming than having the government knowing one's information. You're right though that even the smallest piece of information, such as a surname, can be pricless to certain corrupt individuals . . . the sad thing is that in this day and age people don't think twice. The click of a button and we can talk to someone across the world, for those who grew up in a world where they can't even remember a time without computers I think they simply assume that the web is safer than it is, and forget that information placed online often stays there for all eternity in one form or other. |
I would not put anything past the government.

Been there, done that, had about 60.000 friends (was one of the first members), almost none even spoken an international language (like english, french, german or spanish), deleted account after getting stalked by a crazy red haired women.
Just be careful around there, don't "throw" your ID's so easily. From over 600 million people, you can end up meeting one crazy, I know I did. |
I'm not too bothered tbh. I've added loads of random folk, hence, why I've got 200+ people on my friends list. I'm pretty laid back about it & haven't had any trouble as of yet.

i recently joined facebook so i for now have some 70 friends...which is only 1/3 of people who are my friends. on "local" social network i have some ~ 250.
and i do know all of those people. some worse, some better. and i have never been worried about ID thefts etc. i've been "connected" to the internet since i was 9 years old so i already have a keen eye on things that might be troublesome. :cool: P.S stiron xD you ask for your chances to get a girl you don't know in your facebook friends list? you crack me up every time :pinksong: our troll deserves a cookie. someone give it to him :cool: |

Thats not what I would call having a friend. To me a friend is someone I know and am fond of and can have some relationships with--not just have ridiculous amounts of them. Thats bonkers. and yes there definitely are some crazy people out there. can any one explain to me why they want enormous amounts of so called friends added. |
Quote:
I am old but this is something that really defeats me. WHY have so many? |
and why not add them? just because they are not so close?
yes, everyone has like only 3 best friends. still - you won't accomplish anything with only 3 friends in your life. you can pour your heart out to them, but you need rest of the people also. i've sold, bought, invited to parties,been invited, learned, taught and many other things since i have these 250 people who are mix of good friends, best friends and just some acquaintances. it's like a small community that can help each other out when it's needed or simply a place to go to learn about what's going on in peoples lives, world and see some LOLcat pictures. |

I have some people from here on Facebook and I don't mind. It's not like I'll add anyone right away, the ones that made it to my Facebook friends list are people who I've known long enough on this forum and spoken to on msn before so it's all good. |
Quote:
I've put my mobile number & e-mail up. Nobody will e-mail me as my address is confusing, unless your German. hahaha |
Facebook whores: can't live with them, can live without 'em.

true Miss misa but it sure seems strange to me.
One thing I do notice though is that many people can be organised and that in some of these Parties where someone invites all their friends to their own house can cause havoc. it obviously is a way of communicating and getting news spread in a way theat before would have been much harder. protests,revolutions, crowd gathering is an example of this. In a University no doubt you can know many people which is useful for organising also and cheaper than having to advertise in papers etc. Obviously in a school, college or UNi situation where you come into contact with many people many of you will know each other. I remember my gr children on Messenger-- so many saying hi and that was about it-- used to seem odd to me when she saw them every day at school. I am sure it could be a good way for lonely people to communicate also. I used to like the CB radio where you could chat with others but you did really chat-- but also had to be extremely careful of giving personal details because anyone could always be listening to conversations. it too could be dangerous.It was also a lifeline to the many really lonely folk out there. Before the days of the internet. Not everybody can afford a computer of course. There is such a gap between my generation and your own and sometimes it takes a lot of adjusting to what your generation takes for granted-- I like to choose my real friends--maybe there should be a different word for internet acquaintances. Miss Misa it sounds as though you live a very fulfilled and active life so that is great. Maybe thats one of the perks of being a part of university. Many opportunities to meet a great variety of people. I noticed that Nick Clegg refused to apologise for reneging on his promise about students fees when in discussion with some students. I don't actually care how many facebook or internet friends people add-- but it just seems weird to say they are friends in such numbers. What I call a friend is someone who is always there for you in every situation and vice versa. I wonder what the next ten or twenty years will bring forth? I doubt I'll be around to discover that. LOL |
Heh, I also know they weren't "friends", thats just a way to write connected on the net. I was in a dark period in my life and developed a habit of reaching people through that network, and also MySpace.
About a year and a half I "worked" to reach that "target" and can't remember why and for what, it seems meaningless now. Maybe I needed something to help me pass over my pain... I'm not sure. PS:In the beginning, they didn't have any restrictions regarding almost anything, as they wanted as much members to register to reach the floating point ("money wise"). |

I'm also on Twitter, LastFM (Music social network), a number of forums and PlayStation Network.....so I'm very connected. lol I also have my 'Looking for:' bit of my profile on Facebook set to 'Friendship, Dating, A relationship, Networking'. The 'networking' bit in particular, shows you what to add people outside of the area you know. It might come in useful one day. Look at the guy who went halfway around the world for free, using favours from people following him on Twitter |
