Facebook beinga booger today?
on: August 26, 2010, 07:29:36 PM
Can't seem to post diddly squat or save anything in Facebook totday.

Can read stuff, log in, can enter information - but won't post or save anything. Can't even type on my own posts, or my wall now. Maybe they got hacked? lol

Have logged in and out half a dozen times, seen one post by someone in the past 8 hours. Dern if I can reply.

>.>  While we have some excellent people who work on things when problems act up, don't forget the forum was down for a day or two this past week.

As for FB, I keep on pruning back information that I have on it; I wish I could just delete my profile altogether, but that's the only way I can keep in touch with some friends. :/

Sorry Saz, do you require a refund?  :D

Everyone gets bugs every now and then.  We have far less than most though.
I'm back!!

N-no... no refund required, Lord Benner, Holder of The Big Red Button, sir!  :D

*points to his mentioning of excellent people*  While MT.O does have problems from time to time, it's because of everyone who works behind the scenes, that keeps this place going as well as it does. :tu:

Found the problem; had added a few parameters to block all those annoying dating ads. Seems FB set it to where if you block their ads you also break using FB.  :doh:

I have an online email account set up just for forum use, and it's on the FB account. Due to FB's infamous method of stealing contact information of your friend, their friends, and so on I do limit to what is there. Also disabled Microsoft's little stealth update of the Social Connector. And FB can KMA when it comes to wanting my credit card or mobile phone number - it's not going to be happening.  :mn:

Eeep, got windy there. Anyhow, was nerd error.  :bnghd:

dunno, a day or so ago the entire facebook login system was broken

The difficult we do immediately, the impossible takes a little longer.

 Begin :rant:

Facebook threw me a curve today. Right after posting a reply I get logged out. Every time since then when I go to login it claims I need to verify my account with a mobile phone. Okay, have a mobile phone, but FB doesn't know this - and it's unpublished - so why the heck does FB think they need to know?

Anyhow, can't sent text messages and FB wants exactly that. Can't send, can't get past that to log in, wtf can one do other than make yet another FB account?

Ever try to contact them _______? Good luck!

Can't login to my main account to delete it either, grr. Really makes me mad, had a couple of gear reviews to add to a blog I was doing, now that's all messed up. No biggy, not out anything. Just annoyed by their so-called verification tactics that are nothing more than privacy invasion tactics.
Wth does FB need to know my mobile number for anyhow, I don't use my phone for that. Can receive text messages for free, but not paying $55/mo to send messages. And no way in ____ if FB getting a credit card number, that's a serious red flag warning there!

End :rant:

If FB does that too me, I think I'll be kissing it good bye.

Singed up for Google Voice, entered the 5 digit number, put in "f", says message was not received. Guess it has some phone number it thinks is mine, I dunno.

Can't edit a thing past that stupid pop-up.

Had this FB account for about a month before it pulled this on me. Guess I reply too much on the Leathermanusa FB page.

Gah!  :cry:

Mad at FB again. Second account on a college email is stuck in the "verify your account via text messaging" again. Heck, just made it two days ago! Have maybe made five posts and now stuck at that and didn't even list as having a mobile phone.
  Must been when I tried to hook up through a networking feature. Even the college isn't networked into FB. Off to make another account I guess...
