FU FaceBook

[H. Stone 1st MRB]

So it turns out the Iphone 5 Facebook App, Likes to sync your Contacts. This I thought was a great Idea, have friends numbers if i lose them all over again.

What I just fund out is that when it synced up, Not only did it do the contacts I wanted, but everyone I know, Ok not so bad.

However then the app basically spams everyone you know, then everyone they know with friend requests.

Uh oh Facebook you fucker! I don't want everyone being my friend.

So then I get this nasty Email Via Facebook, from the Facebook Headquarters-

You have been trying to friend people who are:

1. Not you friend

2. Not close with

3. Have no mutual Friends

Mr. ******* we are informing you that this is a form of harassment, and if you continue your account will be blocked from Facebook.

I promptly replied,

I did not friend or send out any friend request, at all. Your App, the Iphone 5 one seems to have done that for me, and I was just going to contact you that you need to fix this.

Reply:

We are aware of the problem, just be sure you do not friend people who do not know you.

My Reply:

I did not and your accusations to me are a form of harassment.

Returned reply:

We are sorry for any problems this may have caused you, please remove the APP from your phone, and if you re-apply it set contacts off, until we can find a fix.

My Reply.

Wait are you telling me what to do now, because you guys broke something and do not know how to handle public relations?

Truthfully I am really annoyed,

1. Did not offer a solution

2. continue to accuse me of sending illegitimate friend requests

3. when I gave you example of what was happening, you simply told me to delete something when it is something I use daily.

4. Have still not handled anything for my situation.

I actually found a help desk phone number and called them. I explained to that person what was said to me, what had happened to my phone, and the outcome. She said that she had never heard of anything like that, but anything was possible, she then canceled all pending friend requests and sent me that list of people who were on it. I had 3 out of 175 that I knew, the rest were all friends of friends. I Id'ed those three and sent the list back to her explaining that those were the only people I knew fro the list, she then said my account was opened from another device.

Though all of that still does not give Facebook the right to treat people accusatory or not, without asking the first question have you logged out of all your devices. Or have an auto log out like every other fucking company does for being idle more then 5 mins.

Next order of business. Contact facebook and let them know they were harassing a 2 year old. He just wanted some friends!

hahahahaha!! I did NOT expect that ending!!

[McClendon 1st MRB]

while syncing facebook through your phone can be good, syncing the contacts is a bad idea because just assumes "oh you want the information from EVERYONE on your friends list? even that one annoying/stalker girlfriend that you got rid of? no problem man! let me just notify them of that for you!"
