About 2 months ago I attended my niece's funeral whom was killed by an (alleged) drunk driver. This was the first time I visited the majority of my family in 7 years. My sister and nephew started a memorial page for my niece. I was amazed at the kind and wonderful responses they sent to her "group". For nearly the week I visited, there were around 500 posting from her schoolmates, long lost relatives and friends. I was urged by my family to join, but when I tried to join, I found out my e-mail address was "disabled". I tried repeatedly to contact Facebook's Help Desk from my home e-mail address and through work, yet I never received an explanation on why my address is disable when I never had an account with them previously. I am totally unimpressed with their "customer service". I was urged by family to create a new e-mail address and try starting a Facebook page again... it worked and I'm now communicating with my family. My main worry is why was my e-mail address "disabled" in the first place? Is it being used by someone else nefariously? Is someone defaming me without my knowledge? Serious concerns that I need answers to. Since I never received previously a "Sign-up Notification" that should warn me that someone was using my address, I believe there is some serious glitches with Facebook that need to be looked into. Hope I can get some answers. If anyone had a similar experience, I'd like to know.
Hello Everyone. I'm not sure whom this "Irish" is, and I do not see the comment she made that brought most of your responses "off topic", but I appreciate you giving her a tongue lashing. Unfortunately, most of the "on topic" information was not very reassuring. This company, I believe has far outgrown it's capability to acknowledge their IT and customer relations problems, which you can see is starting to effect their Public perception. The privacy screw-ups they have been dealing with lately are their biggest concerns, and I doubt they will do anything about my problems until they really start losing more new members. I'm really happy with what I've built on my page so far, and have 44 friends contacts. If I somehow was "disabled" again, lost all my contacts, would i create a new one and start over. I doubt it. Hopefully there is someone whom can give me a constructive answer to my "disabled" dilemma, so at least I can feel safe that my "disabled e-mail address" is safe. Thank you in advance for your responses.
I agree 100%. What happened to friends calling and saying "hey, what's up today, any plans? People don't communicate anymore and are losing valuable interactive skills. I refuse to put my information up for the world to steal when they hack into the system. Get a life people! Put down the keyboard and live.
Oh, you lucky guy.
I, m a little perturbed go to send a freind request and it not loading letting me. im also having probelm with jthe loading of your pages.

Quit CRYING...
otakumas your banter is so bad? you seriously need to get to bed you shouldnt be up this late assuming your maturity reflects your age?
to add to my last comment id like to say im not one of those people who want to re connect with old friends i would rather get out and live my life meet new people and make new friends. all im sayin is find something more exciting to do with your life instead of sitting on facebook yanno? lifes too short if you ask me, and this isnt aimed at people who use it for the 'correct' purpose such as you. the only reason i posted on this is i needed somewhere to express the feeling and see if anyone agreed?
@OhWowReally, i can see where u are coming from mate, i did not say that people cannot have it and it is totally useless and merely said use it less? and its not easy as just going out and becoming a billionaire, to be perfectly honest i dont want a billion dollars as i think i could live a happy life without being rich? but i am annoyed as so he stole someones idea and that billionaires should work hard for their money and this website isnt worth a billion dollars? do u think it is?
Deco94, let me ask you this. I live in the US and many of my friends live in the UK from when I worked their for years. How do you propose I socialize with them? Some of us can't just go out with all of our friends, or make international phone calls when we just want to say hi.
I do agree that 95% of the things I read on Facebook are pointless and goofy. However, the other 5% is what I am there for. I'm able to talk to people daily that live thousands of miles away. I've also been able to reconnect with childhood friends I would have almost no chance of running into when I "get out." Maybe you should look at the good along with the bad.
P.S., you sound bitter that the dude who made Facebook is a billionaire. If such things are "simple, " why don't you spend less time posting useless complaints like this and more time becoming a billionaire yourself.
Next you post...try using spell check.
Apology? Be grateful.

You may want to check this site out. Its a new social site and they pay you to use it, its FREE and I have never been hacked since they have some cool block features

Its really hard to monitor everything. Facebook is out there to make money and they do it well.
There is another social site with cool blocks, etc and they actually pay its free members back up to 70% of their add revenues. I love it, its free and it has some cool games, and a nice email program and its all free

facebook is awesome. Period. Lots of news about how they're crossing the line with the privacy act. I say, whatever. Want privacy? Ditch your cyberspace world along with your cell phone.
The site is made in a free country, which some may say is too free. People create ###, just b/c they're bored. This kind of stuff happens all the time. Know how many anti-semitic groups there are on Facebook? And how bout Youtube?
if I were U I would just get another yahoo email address and get an account
My sympathies goes out to you and your family. It is very difficult when you have lost a love one. I really do wish some people would be more considerate of others when posting comments. I do not see the rude comment everyone has responded to, nor do I care to look for it.
Rather than being rude, try considering posting helpful thoughts, comments, and knowledgeable information to help others in dealing with their situation rather than just posting useless information. You may have knowledge about a situation someone is going through that they are fully unaware of.
One main reason that you may have a 'banned' or more likely 'deactivated' account is because Facebook did a lot of revamping and updating, and if it took you a looooooooong time to update your profile or even log in, for a lot of the accounts that were not verified originally when they were set up, were deactivated (this is what happened to my old account). Main reason for that being is, because once your account was set up (again a long time ago) and they made all those changes, it would have also thrown out the option to have another verification email sent to you. Because with the new updates, technically speaking, everyone had a new acct. It made it easier to disable that for all accounts over X amount of time. Your account, presumably fell under that catagory.
But on another note, I doubt that Facebook really cares that you can't log in for the simple fact that it's free. You don't pay them and they don't make any monthly income off of you. So you making 1 accounts or 1, 000 accounts is no big deal to them. Which is also why they [I would assume] don't have a very 'serious' or helpful Pr or IT department. They get all their money from advertisements, and in fact, the more accounts you make, the better for them!
Dont worry though, your account isn't being used for any kinky Facebook Message action. or any super kinky Facebook chat macking.
Aye, Brenda, while I agree that we are free to speak as we please, especially over the internet, there are certain things we should abstain from saying, and commenting on how a recently deceased relative is better off dead is way out of line and I'm not talking about according to the ToS guidelines. It's one thing to be a troll, to annoy and disrupt, but it's another to go so far as to not be human enough to recognize a comment like that should never be said to anyone. It's gotten to the point where Irish has crossed that line, where it is no longer her just being a teen idiot, but far worse. I laugh at some of her posts because as much as I hate to admit it, she brings some funny into the boards, but it's not worth THAT much, and any "respect" and tolerance I did have of her, I no longer do.
What a ###.
I am glad that what Irish said was removed before you could see it, it was rude and hurtful.
Oh boy! I hope tomorrow night's episode is "How to act when you lack parental supervision and discipline!" And you can co-host and give a speech titled "Ethics and Morals: Who needs them anyway?" I mean obviously you two are very knowledgeable in those areas.
You know, I just find it amusing that someone who believes that people should "stand up for the little guy's basic human rights of fair and equitable treatment!" would condone such behavior from a 15 year old child. Then again, I'm sure that the people who are posting these complaints, overlook such immaturity and ignorance from the people that have nothing better to do than to curse and belittle them.
You're right Brenda it doesn't say anything in the terms and conditions about "giving helpful advice", however it does state this: You agree to abide by all applicable local, state, national and international laws and regulations and are solely responsible for all acts or omissions that occur under your name or email, including the content of your transmissions through the Service. By way of example, and not as a limitation, you agree not to:
Use the Service in connection with surveys, contests, pyramid schemes, chain letters, junk e-mail, spamming or any duplicative or unsolicited messages (commercial or otherwise).
Defame, abuse, harass, stalk, threaten or otherwise violate the legal rights (such as rights of privacy and publicity) of others.
Publish, distribute or disseminate any inappropriate, profane, defamatory, infringing, obscene, racist, indecent or unlawful material or information.
If I'm not mistaken Irish, you are violating the terms and conditions.
I agree, not that this excuses her behavior, but she is a child(teenager). Then again anyone over the age of 7 would know that posting a comment like this is cruel.
That's exactly what I said! I don't think he would like it very much if he had a family member die and someone made a rude comment like that to him! I agree with you Michael1972!
Irish I know you are a troll but that was a cruel comment, some of your comments are reasonable, however the way you do about disagreeing is well, cruel and rude.
Irish in back, that is a very rude thing to say to someone. This site is for people to complain and I agree that some people take things a little to seriously, but to tell him that "if this is the way you are your niece is better off dead than having to deal with you" is uncalled for. This website is to give helpful advice on things, whether you agree or disagree with the complaint. I'm glad you got banned. You are rude.
Irish - Did you get banned or something? What's with the new s/n?
Also, OP... it could very well just be a glitch. And since you never received a "thanks for signing up" message from Facebook, I would doubt it has anything to do with someone nefariously using your information. Don't stress it.
There are a few reasons why your email address would be disabled, perhaps some other user typed in your email address when joining, or someone with a simular email address joined, broke terms and conditions several times with simular email addrss so all simuler emails would be disabled.
Some game company called, "Warstorm" has their advertising of naked women on fire pop up when I go to listen to my iLike videos! I don't know how to stop this humiliating add from rudely and vulgarly intruding my privacy. I tried to stop it by rejecting them from sending me stuff but it didn't work it still pops up and now my Facebook isn't working properly at all after trying to send a complaint (? ?) It won't let me see my history or my iLike or anything except what's on my first page! It didn't have a place to report them of vulgar pornography. I am ashamed and embarrased because I hope all my friends didn't see the same horrible thing when i sent them a good video for Easter (T T) Can some one stop Warstorm from doing this?
i complained
when they answered me it was to demand i send them personal information to add it to my profile and that they require this
they need to learn what identity theft is and that you do not put personal information out on the internet and mylife farms information to scam with even past their so called privacy settings
probably a facebook moderator that is not able to get a date at the bunny ranch so has nothing better to do
Need to contact Facebook or You Tube? Look below to see how!
Is this what I talked about in the: Facebook Trojan if so let me know Thanks
I was right! Facebook deleted the message I got! But I too a picture of it! because I knew they would just cover it up like the last time! This is wrong!
OMG! I have been on Facebook for about three weeks. Millions of people log on every day. What is up with this "down for site maintenance" crap? They should take lessons from Yahoo or alot of other 24/7 sites and figure out how to keep things running.
I AM TIRED OF BEING ANNOYED BY THIS PERSON WOULD APPRECIATE IT IF YOU COULD PUT S TOP TO IT
I AM BEING ANOYED BY SOMEONE WITH THREATS AND IGNORANT REMARKS ON FACEBOOK AS WELL AS AOL EMAILS. THE NAME IS LCRYBABY1059 I HAVE REPETEDLY TOLD HER TO STOP BUT CONTINUES CAN YOU PUT A STOP TO IT
