FB gone a bit bonkers?

[sherrardk]

Has anyone else's FB page gone a bit bonkers and started suggesting loads of people who have mutual friends who 'could' be your friends?

[cazzz1975]

thats okay, I dont think sqad is fond of me anyway ;)

[ummmm]

DT....what has this got to do with FaceBook?

[redcrx]

hi sher, My FB seems to go through phases of no suggestions and then loads in one go. last couple of days have been a busy phase :)

[DTCwordfan]

Christ I give up.

You make a flippant remark and all the pedantics are out in force.

Need I spell it out. Cazz makes a remark that the FB count is 289 and something, I make a flippant remark implying that one person here would be removing their support (and yes I dont even know if Sqad is an FB member and I dont care).

Anyway the balance is now still neutral as Postdog is throwing his vote in!

Goodnight.

I think you'll find it's 'pedants'.........:o)

[DTCwordfan]

lol cazzz, guess you will live with that - his remarks were somewhat off and unhelpful - and I am surprise his maths as to becoming preggers was so limited......

[ummmm]

Before you go DT...any helpful advise for Sherrardk? :-)

[sherrardk]

Thanks ummm - I'm getting used to people going off on one on my questions (got one removed the other day because of the bickering!).

[DTCwordfan]

(i) to sherrard, withdraw from FB it seems to cause nothing but grief, therefore I am not joining

(ii) not seeing much else that is constructive.....says he tongue in cheek

[ummmm]

Yeah I know....pity.

I think how often it happens depends on how many friends you have.

[sherrardk]

Hi DT - I use FB to keep in touch with family and friends at home (dont live a million miles away but don't go back) and to talk to friends locally who also have small children and, therefore, no social life (imagine sad face thing).

Hi ummm - don't have many friends on my list, cant work out how some people have 600+, can't remember the kids' names half the time, would never remember who was who with that many friends!

[ummmm]

I have quite a lot...but...I was brought up in a pub so know loads of people. I also have a massive family and I'm also friends with my kids friends. That's the deal :-)

[DTCwordfan]

I'd keep it to that sherrard and no more - you hear all these stories about weirdos looking in (and the tie-ups to folk here for example), and then HR units of companies looking one up to see if your application ties up with your background/resume........that is unbelievably intrusive.

[craft1948]

Do you have Skype sherrard, then you can chat for nothing face to face....

[DTCwordfan]

now that is a good idea, craft....means having the make up on, sherrard, but it is good - we use skype within the family, es. one in the Channel Islands which fall outside BT's call-all package.

[sherrardk]

Hi Craft - I quite like FB, seeing photos of your friends having nice times, keeping up with family gossip, etc.

[craft1948]

fair doos..............

[ummmm]

I love FB....my aunty is slowly putting up family albums from when my grandparents were young, their wedding, and when their kids were young. All I have to do is tag them and taaadaaaaaaar I have all the old family photos :-)

[sherrardk]

To be honest Craft, it is the only communiction I have with one of my sisters and my brother (family gone a bit to pot since my mother died - she used to be the central information point).

I thought it had always done that. I wish it wouldn't though.
