Anyone who puts herself on Facebook or MySpace is insane.

No offense, but that way lies ID Fraud and perhaps other problems.

Private sites -- sure, that is a great use of the Internet. 

But to public put your personal and family's images to the entire world can only be bad.

You people are nuts.

Facebook allows me to hide my account and/or profile from being searched for by outsiders, at least that's how I have it set up.  I don't just let anyone see my profile or become my friend.   The only time I add people to my friends list is when they are people I actually know and I am aware of their requests. When I don't have people looking for me (and I'm not aware of anyone wanting to be friends) that's when I alter my account to not be visible to those other than the people who are my friends.

Isn't it a homo site?

The only real reason I brought back a Facebook account was to be more social with a certain student organization and keep them up to date on things, considering I AM a chairwoman.  They can't have an anti-social leader now can they?  :tongue:  

Besides, anyone who wants to steal my name would be a moron given its rarity. 

Edit: Plus, its a lot cheaper to advertise meetings on the site than to print out and put up FLYERS.

But my IQ tests all went up by 50.

I'm glad stupid isn't contracted by a message board. You're 10K + posts would surely have infected many.

You people are nuts.

On edit: I guess yours is semi private.

But to link your Internet persona to your RL name is still nuts.

I keep a separation from Freedumb2003 and my RL name and info.  There are 3 people on the Internet who know the link. 


My name is exceedingly rare.  In fact, I'm the only person I know named me.  Put my name into Google and not a lot shows up.  Not much more than anyone can get from a phone book.

That which is posted may be hacked or revealed.

You mail and wallet/purse can be stolen.  People still have those things, however, and it would be much, much easier to steal someone's identity with those things than from Facebook.

You have never been so wrong in your life.  A person needs to come into physical contact with you to steal your mail or purse. Millions of people can spend as much time as they want at their leisure or 24X7 to steal your Facebook identity.


I've had my identity stolen once in my life.  Some guy got a hold of my driver's license a few years ago when my mail wasn't forwarded to me after I moved.  I've never had anyone do anything with any information I've put online.

Anecdotes doth not proper precautions make. 

Do you lock your doors at night?  Even if you have never been burglarized?

Do you lock your car even if it has never been stolen?

Your small ID stealing should have been a sign to you.

Post NOTHING online about your RL information.  EVER.

Because you have already been smacked by probabilities (your situation happens a lot but, for example, has never happened to me).

Facebook should be called ID-crack-book.  See my post upthread about hackers.

I wish someone would steal my idenity.

I also have a Facebook page, but only joined to keep in touch a little better with a friend that was no longer happy with MySpace.

I have not locked my doors for years.

I would welcome the company, sometimes it's boring living alone.

You all realize that if you have pages on MySpace or Facebook, that people like me read them and laugh at you?

Guess you won't be my friend on either one, huh?  I'm a geek, I have both. lol  :)   :loser:

Sure I'll be your friend.
I'll still laugh at your pages though.

Thought that was the point!  I've got some funny stuff floating around :)   :p

I'm still waiting for the "high heels and mini skirt" photo you promised me.

Would you settle for "flip flops" and "jeans" instead?  LOL  :)  I'm not a 1980's "background whore in a rock video", you know  ;)   :-)

If I Google my name....I pop up first.

Because I sell real estate.... my company has a web site, the local Board of Realty does, and I belong to a couple of real estate organizations, Realtor.com....there I am. Picture, addresses, etc.

Not much choice in the matter.  :(

Facebook is a lot more private by default than myspace. I'm sending my link out to some of you that ive know longer. But don't mention the name crockspot in any postings please. I try to keep my real name completely disassociated from my handle. I don't need to be burying any moonbats in my back yard.
