Deleted Facebook Account

[ChiefRocka]

Just deleted my Facebook account that I've had for the better part of the decade.

Final straws were:

-Wife got gas at the local Sonoco and she told me later that day some random dude tried to befriend her on FB. She looked at his profile and he works at the Sonoco station.

-Companies associated with TransUnion/Experian are building credit risk profles based on who your friends are on FB.

-Email from FB yesterday explaining that any/all data submitted on your profile can be used for whatever purpose they desire.

LMAO Dude got skillz

[Mr_Tomahawk]

I deleted mine back in 2003 when anyone with an email account could sign-up.

Been just fine without it...

[QuikSsurfer]

Your info is still out there, bro.

Cool thread though.

[BlackHelicopters]

Deleted? Love your sense of humor.

[DaFace]

The first two bullets can easily be solved with privacy settings, though you're obviously right that you can't do much about FB's privacy policies.

Whatever makes you happy.

Kind of cool that he still wanted to be her FB friend after she farted all over his workplace.

[Red Gorilla]

Probably a good move Rocka.

I don't know what my opinion is without pics of your wife.

That gas station clerk was probably just befriending your wife to warn her of a shady character he saw slip into her back seat while she was filling up.

Don't ever play games on Facebook. I talked to a scammy marketing company a while back, and they proudly told me how they've created some games on Facebook. To play the games you do that "give permission" thing, and they use it to grab all your personal data and sell it.

There are some key elements to that story people are glossing over....

1) Where these companies operate
2) Who they are targeting....
3) And key point to all things....when a lender is in business here in the US they are governed by laws that prevent the type of games that could be played using Social Media

This may work overseas in markets less sophisticated than here in the US but it will never fly here.

[cosmo20002]

That's what you think

[Bearcat]

The first one is pretty creepy, but you can prevent your profile from showing up in search results and limit who can send you messages and friend requests.

You can also block others from seeing who you are friends with.

The 3rd thing is pretty much true for the entire internet, outside of the obvious like banks using your account info to buy stuff... it's generally a good idea to only have stuff in your profile that you would bring up casually to a friendly acquaintance. It's not like facebook is unique in that regard.

Also none of these companies are associated with TransUnion or Experian.

I wouldn't go that far. I've kept in touch with dozens of friends who I probably would have never seen again if it weren't for Facebook. And since we maintain that mild relationship, it doesn't seem awkward to say "Hey, I'm coming to town!" and then meeting up in person.

[the Talking Can]

good move, leaving facebook will prevent men from trying to fuck your wife....

[Omaha]

I don't see these as problems at all.

-Wife got gas at the local Sonoco and she told me later that day some random dude tried to befriend her on FB. She looked at his profile and he works at the Sonoco station.

I get requests from people who I barely know. I just decline them. The dude probably thought your wife was attractive & tried to look her up on fb. She apparently has her security settings set so he couldn't creep on her account so he tried sending out a friend request which she presumably denied. People are creepy, but this probably worked out as it should.

-Companies associated with TransUnion/Experian are building credit risk profles based on who your friends are on FB.

meh. Pay your bills & keep your house in order. You won't have problems with credit. Also, don't hang out with shitbags.

-Email from FB yesterday explaining that any/all data submitted on your profile can be used for whatever purpose they desire.

Don't post incriminating & overly embarrassing stuff on the internet & you won't have any problems.

Did you make you wife close her Facebook account to?

Eh, my friends are the best and I hang with them regularly. I just don't need them on my portable devices. Generational thing I guess.

My nieces (sisters) like to say they've "hacked" each others' Facebook accounts when one of them forgets to sign off and the other posts as them. I kind of want to slap them for it.

[Hammock Parties]

The important thing is that you feel superior to those who still use facebook.

Fair enough. My friends use fb to organize social activities.

Not necessarily.

[DaFace]

Same here. I've got a close-knit group of friends from high school that I still keep in touch with and see regularly. Way back before Facebook was cool, I started a little tiny message board for us to keep in touch, but the software is now WAY outdated, and Facebook does basically everything it does better with a closed group.

Unfortunately, one guy (out of 5 guys and 4 wives) won't join Facebook, so I still have to check this stupid little message board from time to time just to see if he's posted anything.

Just join the damn thing under a pseudonym and don't "friend" anyone other than those in the group. :cuss:

[LoneWolf]

Not necessarily.

Just wasn't clear on the meaning of your statement. I've never had a Facebook account and really have never felt I needed one. I call or text my friends when I need/want to communicate with them. I don't look on others negatively for using Facebook, but it is just not something I need in my life.

[NewChief]

Yeah. Even worse when it's adults saying they're getting hacked by their kids. Seriously? You're barely 40 years old. Computers were around prior to your birth. The internet was accessible when you were in college. You're not 75 years old. Act like you have a fucking clue. You weren't hacked by your kid, dumbass. And it doesn't make it sound like your kid is clever or smart when you claim they "hacked" you. It makes your whole family look stupid.

I work in the networking (computer) industry - so i tend to use terms that others use in the "general population" - i have been accused of using terms no one understands and some people get a little put-off - that is mostly in conversation however. Hence the term "hacked" - but yes - someone used a bot that generates passwords and guessed mine.

yes - true - I got out early and did not see any of these benefits - so you are correct.

Gotcha, just giving you shit... and yeah, one of the speakers at a recent company-wide meeting said "one thing we all have in common is that we can't ever explain to family and friends what we do for a living..." ...which is true, so I know the feeling.

Again, Facebook is what you make of it. I have about 250 friends on there, and probably 150 of those are just on my aquaintences list, so I never see their stuff unless it's 1) a big story (getting married, having a kid, etc.) or 2) I intentionally go look for it.

It doesn't have to be this crazy obnoxious thing unless you let it be, and if you really take control of it, it's a great way of staying in touch.

Yeah I literally took my list down from 350 to 100 yesterday. I used the question, "would I invite this person to my home?" as the qualifier. If the answer was no they didn't make the cut. 250 poor souls are friendless today because of my actions.

You care too much. I have like 900 facebook friends, 700 of which are barely acquaintances and many from college that I met like 1 or 2 times. I don't have enough desire to go through the entire list and pick and choose who is worthy of my virtual friendship, who gives a shit

[mr. tegu]

I have never had one which is strange considering I'm not exactly old. My wife has one though so the only thing I would use it for at this time is for our poker group. So whenever there is an event it shows up for her.

The funny thing is how often employers use that on employees or potential employees. Before I got my job they said they searched for me before hiring me. I never really made the connection that I could have one anyways and they wouldn't have seen it.

yeah, I have never been big on having coworkers on my facebook profile. I have one right now, but I knew him before I was employed at my job and he is a CPer.

I have my profile pretty locked down though. You can't really find me at all if you don't know me. Not saying it is impossible but the average user won't know how to do it.

Seems kind of pointless if you want to see updates from specific people, but to each their own. I got into adding a bunch of people at one point, just to realize how many people just aren't that interesting on there.

Maybe... there are certainly many ways to keep up with people, but being fairly anti social and working 50-60 hours/week, it's nice to have one place to kind of catch up with what's going on with people without texting them all, and also update several people without telling the same story 50 times.

You can absolutely keep people from seeing your page or finding you. And you can turn off search engine indexing so that no one can find you on Google too.

[DaFace]

Damn cool. Thanks for the google search indexing info I just changed that as well.

Cool - that's the big one. If you do that, everyone will just get a "page not found" error even if they have the exact address to your profile.

I suppose I'll mention that I don't THINK you can hide your profile pic and header for people who are logged into Facebook (though they'd have to know your page address to get there if you've got the searching stuff turned off). I believe the rest of your profile stuff has to be hidden on a case by case basis.

Liberal use of the little "View as..." gizmo in the upper-right of your profile under the gear icon is your friend in making sure you get it locked down sufficiently for your liking.

I do not have a personal facebook account.
But my weather station does.

Stories why not:
1. Got an email from facebook saying someone I know wants to connect with me and shows me whom I know on facebook. I know all but one. It ends up being a former student that I had YEARS before that. How did facebook know that? She emailed me a few years after i left the school. 1 email. They tracked it.

2. A student said they friended me on FB. My response was "How?" He insisted it was me, and I insisted I did not have an account. So the class had a quick teachable moment about being safe on the internet. I made him log in and unfriend the person who was not me.

3. Family. We live two miles from each other, you never call unless money is involved or you need something and I don't care if you had a great workout. If you can only communicate over FB and not in person, you have issues.

People that go on and on about being above or not liking Facebook are much worse than any annoying thing posted on FB itself.

They never stop talking about.

[Bearcat]

I do not have a personal facebook account.
But my weather station does.

Stories why not:
1. Got an email from facebook saying someone I know wants to connect with me and shows me whom I know on facebook. I know all but one. It ends up being a former student that I had YEARS before that. How did facebook know that? She emailed me a few years after i left the school. 1 email. They tracked it.


Facebook doesn't track email. She used the feature that lets facebook determine if anyone in her contact lists has a facebook account, and then you can email those who don't in order to tell them to sign up. It's completely voluntary on her part and facebook wouldn't have access otherwise.

I'm not one of those idiots that feels the need to talk for hours and hours on the phone every day, nor do I text constantly. But a cell phone is a useful tool. I have a pay as you go phone which I throw $25 or so in every 3 months. Pretty cheap and suits my needs just fine.

Don't ever play games on Facebook. I talked to a scammy marketing company a while back, and they proudly told me how they've created some games on Facebook. To play the games you do that "give permission" thing, and they use it to grab all your personal data and sell it.

I've heard of that type of stuff. What do they do with this "personal data"? And exactly what personal data are they selling? I don't have my credit card info, bank account number or even my address on my Facebook.

I've got the app on my phone and was actually using it when I went in the hospital. I used it up until the end of my old phone's life and probably would've installed it on the new phone but this htc sensation I have has it built in and will send and receive calls from my cell phone number.

When it works. We've had some issues but it's purely a backup solution that we wouldn't even consider if it were $50 a year. It's priced right for its consistency.

To be honest, I can't speak to the consistency because I use it very infrequently. Like you, it's a backup for my son to reach me when he needs to (in essence it's the first backup) but have never had an issue when it's needed. I agree wholeheartedly that it is priced right where it needs to be. I might be willing to go up to $10 a month but anymore than that it's better, imo, to get a cell for emergency use only.

Fortunately my boy isn't in the spend 4 hours a night talking on the phone phase yet so we'll see when that happens.

Trolling schmolling.

I was thinking about it, and the last time I had sex was this past Christmas.

First off, I had to get drunk to do it, secondly I'm sitting there thinking is this really worth it, thirdly I'm trying to equate the monetary level of involvement as it relates to the dividends produced in said relationship.

I mean, my Christmas is ruined because I'm hungover, secondly I realize that I'm totally out the $45 I spent on her Xmas present as there is no way possible that I'm going to recoup that, and C., I'm not overly thrilled with the pressure of being responsible for someone else's emotional and physical well-being.

Screw that.

Actually, my friends think I'm nuts because I just throw away the numbers I get when we go out to the bars and whatnot. (And seriously, what's with bartenders and their piss poor attitudes when you order an 80/20 water/cranberry with a slice of lime instead of booze? I still pay for the drink and tip them. Fucking enablers.) Actually, once you get the number, it's pretty much over and I've won the game. What's the point of following up when you know it's going to end up costing you money, time and stress just to get to the ultimate conclusion of bad, awkward sex. Really, is that they whole point? A piece of ass? Because I'm pretty okay with myself emotionally so I'm not looking for a "companion" to grow old with so I'm don't have these feeling of abandonment and insecurity issues. Because, you know, it's going to end up the same...you are just going to sit there and wonder what all the trouble and effort is about and what you are really getting out of the deal. Is it really worth all that for a piece of ass that's going to just get wrinkly and grey and sit in your living room watching the same fucked up syndicated television re-run over and over again every last living day of your life until you die? Because you know you aren't going to want to put your shrivled up old wang into that shit anymore no matter how hot she was earlier, so you sit there mentally masturbating to all the pretty young things on her fucking re-runs while asking her when dinner is going to be ready at three in the fucking afternoon.

Trolling schmolling.

I was thinking about it, and the last time I had sex was this past Christmas.

First off, I had to get drunk to do it, secondly I'm sitting there thinking is this really worth it, thirdly I'm trying to equate the monetary level of involvement as it relates to the dividends produced in said relationship.

I mean, my Christmas is ruined because I'm hungover, secondly I realize that I'm totally out the $45 I spent on her Xmas present as there is no way possible that I'm going to recoup that, and C., I'm not overly thrilled with the pressure of being responsible for someone else's emotional and physical well-being.

Screw that.

Actually, my friends think I'm nuts because I just throw away the numbers I get when we go out to the bars and whatnot.

Yeah. You have some relationship issues. That's okay. Not everybody was meant to grow old with a soulmate. Do whatever makes you happy.

Soulmate?

There's 7,000,000,000+ people on this planet. Do you really think that you've found your true soulmate?

Shit. You're true soulmate is probably a 58 year old taxi driver in Bangladesh. You've just never met him.

There is no way possible that you've met your "soulmate."

The fact is, humans settle for just about any piece of ass because they are so terrified of being alone that they'll take any warm body that shows any inkling of attraction to them.

I'll even take this back to the OP. What's the purpose of facebook? Attention. Inclusion. Somebody please make me feel wanted...needed...please...

No, you're right about several things there. The term "soulmate" is probably overused and watered down. I'm on facebook because it's a tool for me. Originally, I used it to stay in touch with my daughters. Now I use it for entertainment and to push my business interests.

I "broke up" with her the day after Christmas because of previously said reasons.

Come to think of it, I also did the same thing back in 2005 when I stopped picking up the phone on February 13 with some girl I dated for about a year.

I didn't have sex after that one for five+ years.

It's just sex. Not a big deal.

Maybe I just don't like Holidays.

Though, I often find myself wanting a date on Halloween. Costume parties are much more fun in coordinated, historical "couple" costumes.

If you are going to dump FaceBook, first unfriend everyone on your list. Then remove any info that you have posted into your settings. Place of birth, schools, jobs, etc. Once you have a bare bones profile, change your name. You're allowed to do that several times. Then you go with A or B. "A" is that you make a boring name and fake up a few details then just never log on again. Just leave it. Don't delete it, just abandon it. No one else will notice it, and it will disappear much more cleanly than a deletion. "B" is that you make a fun or interesting name and turn your page into a fake celebrity. Make up a bunch of ridiculous details and post deep, meaningful quotes followed by drunken foolish party ramblings. Push that for as long as you want then let it flame out on its own. Either way you don't exist anymore.

There is a lot of truth to what you say about the soulmate thing but I don't think sane people actually believe in that concept anymore. Or maybe they do with these 50+% divorce rates these days..

But your whole life premise is based on the idea that the single life is somehow better than living with a partner. I don't knock you because that's your journey, but I can't say I agree.

You dont have to answer these questions and I'm really just curious, but you don't get lonely? What things do you like to do?

Do I get lonely? Not really. Like I said, maybe Halloween would be nice to date on, but in all honesty, I'll have a girlfriend for a little bit and it cures up that "loneliness" shit pretty damn quick, especially when I'm trying to read a good book or listen to my music and they want to watch the tv or ask you to turn it down. And they always want to watch the TV and ask you to turn it down.

I like to fish, hike, garden, read, cook, write poetry, camp, work on my piece of shit novel, volunteer with a couple of different organizations, work a lot and spend time with you wonderful folks. Just normal stuff like everyone else does.

And I'm not completely against relationships or marriage. But I'm not going to get completely bent out of shape about not having a girlfriend right here right now. If it happens, it happens, but I'm not throwing myself at the first person through the door in order to fulfill some psychological need of companionship/want.

I don't know what the hell I'm addicted to now. After the surgery the vast multitude of pharmaceuticals they threw my way (ranging from thyroid, depression, anxiety, and all the way up to a medication that is designed to lower my heart rate despite it being automatically controlled through a pacemaker) to booze, to smokes, to naked pictures of midgets. I'm sure I'm hooked on something.

Ill never understand why ppl are so against drinking. Ppl drink because its fun now and again. Drinking every day...or even 2 times a week? Well thwn it becomes work and like a job. But just giving up drinking at all, because of some higher reason. Makes no sense. I guess im one of those ppl that doesnt understand alcoholism. To me, thats work and is not fun. But 90% of the times I drink I have more fun than I do otherwise. That is why ppl drink in the 1st place.

I just dont understand never drinking ever at all cuz ur scared of it. OR drinking just every single day because that effing sucks.

I dont think not wanting to have sex makes you gay. I want to have sex. The physical urge is there, but I realize and understand that this impulse probably is not a real helpful thing in life. If I could get the same enjoyment out of mowing my lawn id probably prefer that.
