Hey folks.  I just recently joined Facebook.  Seems like the "in" thing right now - even though I'm usually not into what is "in" at the moment.  But I thought it would be another way to spread the word about the podcast, forums, web site, etc.  If you are on Facebook, feel free to look me up and add me as a friend.  Just search for Rick Dostie.    :metallica:

Sweet, I just joined facebook a while ago too.  Myspace is just losing interest.  Especially since most of OIT's college students are on facebook.

Nice one Rico. I joined a few weeks ago and I searched for some names that reside here to no avail. I shall now look for you Rico and you can expect my invite soon. Come on guys, join in and let us know what name to search for. For me, you need to look for Timothy Morris. See you there.

Sorry Billybob, but I cannot seem to see your picture, perhaps you could search for me? I am in the Brighton and Hove network and my photo is my ugly mug close up, complete with specs.

It would be really helpful if people posted the name to search for in Facebook and perhaps a description of their photo. Forum names don't seem to give many results. I'd like to add anyone on here who isn't already on my friend list. Tonight I just added The Duffster who told me to search for John McDuffee and he also told me what his photo was.
If you want to add me, look for Timothy Morris and look for the photo with me and my twins.

Nice of you to do this but frankly I just haven't had much time to use Facebook.  Between the site here, forums, podcasts, Twitter, etc. there are just only so many hours in my day.  LOL!  I also sort of prefer interacting with all of you here using the forum anyway.  But I'll try to get over there sometime soon.

I just tired to update the "What are you doing right now" and I had updated my blog so I wrote that and added the web address and I got this back..

Warning: This Message Contains Blocked Content
Some content in this message has been reported as abusive by Facebook users.

One of my "Friends" reported to facebook that the content in my blog was abusive... can you believe that.

And the bad thing is I can't find out who.. that has kind of turned me off of facebook.

EDIT... and if you click on the link to my website below my picture you get this...

The following website has been identified as malicious:
www.geocities.com/dathon1 (http://www.geocities.com/dathon1)

?  How can they do that?  There is nothing offensive on your site.

Post by: Meds on October 31, 2008, 12:16:06 AM
Thats screwed up. have you got in touch with facebook admin. I'm going off facebook, can't stand the new layout and i'm constantly being frozen. Also the amount of spam i keep getting is ridiculous. Also Tim called me a jerk the other day ;) .
Title: Re: Facebook
Post by: Meds on October 31, 2008, 12:20:27 AM
Just checked your link Kenny. That is rubbish your site is fantastic. I'd get in touch with face cretins straight away and ask them if they have viewed your site and if not then then claim they are ruining your name and you will take action against them.
Title: Re: Facebook
Post by: billybob476 on October 31, 2008, 03:56:02 AM
Not sure why they would but they might just be blocking geocities sites in general.
Title: Re: Facebook
Post by: Geekyfanboy on October 31, 2008, 08:36:08 AM
Well the link is working again.. sent a complaint in to facebook admins last night. Asking why my site was blocked.. even if someone complained an admin from facebook is suppose to check it out and confirm the complaint before blocking it.. so I said either you guys didn't check it and just blocked it or facebook admin are homophobic as that is the only reason I can think of for someone complaining about my website.. because I am a gay man.

Well I got an email this morning saying:

We have detected suspicious activity on your Facebook account and have reset your password as a security precaution. It is possible that malicious software was downloaded to your computer or that your password was stolen by a phishing website designed to look like Facebook. Please carefully follow the steps provided:

I have no virus or malicious software on my computer.. I check it everyday and it's clean. I think they were using this as an excuse of their mistake. So now I had to redo my password and everything seems to be back to normal.

This has kind of turned me off facebook...

I've never really been interested in Facebook et al so I don't know how they work, but I had wondered if the homophobic approach might be worth a shot - you never know, it might even be the reason for the problem although no-one will ever admit it.

Glad you've sorted it, regardless - I did have a little browse round your site as a result though, so you've probably gained a few extra visitors through this :)
