Social Science Facebook

[Know what I mean]

Boys, how are we all?

Yeah look I was just *stares blankly* looking at Facebook, right? Pfft anyway, I was looking for some hot pictures and noticed that a person I work with has deleted me as a friend *hitches pants*.

Now this has got me perplexed as I am unsure what I have done to prompt this action, and said ‘person’ still has a large number of mutual friends from our workplace. All I can think of is that she *adjusts transition lenses* has one of those bloody ‘profile trackers’ on her page.

Anyone have any idea? It would be quiet on Facebook BUT for the fact I have another 1,392 of my closest friends on there, knowhatimean?

i had a guy delete me 2 weeks ago then add me again a few days ago and i asked what the go was and he replied "yeah, not sure what happened".

I liked you more when you were a Bulldogs supporter.

 

[Barry Zuckercorn]

Kwim, the impression i get is that this person is a work colleague of yours. As such, I honestly think the best way to go about this is to let it go... UNTIL that is, you both attend a big work function with all your co-workers attending. This will be the best time to confront her about it and the added bonus is that it'll be in front of lots of people. Some shoving coupled with loud, aggressive swearing directly at her should do the trick as you'll put her on the spot

You may not have a job the next day BUT you should get some answers knowhatimean?

Profile trackers are illegal.

 

[nicky]

what is a profile tracker?

I liked you more when you were a Bulldogs supporter.

... and when the posts came with a complimentary picture of a tea cup.

Profile trackers are illegal.

Really? Good thing I didn't install one then

I thought they just didn't work all that well.

 

[Juddy88]

Yeah, do those profile tracker things work or what?

Pretty sure they're a scam. One wanted me to enter my mobile number which seemed odd.

 

[Quinz]

Sounds like a scam- I don't think they work.

According to this site at least.

At the present time, there is only ONE Facebook application which currently offers any sort of profile tracking ability: Trakzor. Trakzor is a a free facebook application that you can add to your profile, by selecting it from the "Browse more Applications" button when in your profile application edit mode.

Based on early user's feedback, this Facebook application does not work that well, although this may not be a fault of the application itself. Trakzor only recognizes the user profiles of other Facebook users who have also signed up for a Trakzor account... and if you haven't done so (which, at this time, is most people!) then you will not be picked up by this profile tracker

So now you have 1392 friends. I've read Dan Brown's books, so I played a little hunch in the style of Robert Langdon. I looked for information relating to the year 1393. This is what I found:

A Ming Dynasty Chinese record states that 720,000 sheets of toilet paper (two by three ft. in size) alone have been produced for the various members of the imperial court at Beijing, while the Imperial Bureau of Supplies also reports that 15,000 sheets of toilet paper alone have been designated for the royal family (made of fine soft yellow tissue and perfumed).

I think the mystery has been solved.

Peace,

She/he probably didn't want to have anything to do with you and your horrible writing style. You write like someone trying to write like a normal person.

I bumped into an old friend the other day

'No offence' he said to me, 'but I had to hide your feed on Facebook. You post the biggest load of crap.'

No offence taken. Though I don't post any of that Farmville crap. Just a load of youtube videos.

 

[JimDocker]

Excuse my ignorance, but if you have hidden somebody's feed. How do you get it back? I tried the other day and could not find how to do it.

 

[bresker]

It's actually quite counter-intuitive - like a lot of facebook

1.) Go to the feed page - news feed/most recent

2.) Go to the bottom of the page where is says 'older posts' in a blue box

3.) To the right of 'older posts' there is a box that says 'edit options'

4.) Click on this. Anyone you have hidden will have an 'x' next to their name. Hit the x and then save.

5.) That's it mofos

 

[JimDocker]

Thanks for that.
Dead easy in the end.

That's good. Because I do an awful lot of stalking.

Why did you hitch your pants when you noticed they deleted you? And why do we give a **** about you adjusting your transition lenses?

Are you trying to be "hip" or something?

[raskolnikov]

One of my nephews deleted all my contacts at Christmas time. I had to send a friend request to all my friends again. I'm pretty sure there's a few I forgot and they're probably wondering what they did to be deleted.

Would kill facebook if they did.

Amen to that.
