Noob? What are you, seven or something?

and a half.

 

[Obi-Ron]

Whoa, my bad. t:

 

[The Senator]

He said he could sue me and that he was thinking about it, all I did was say, go ahead, tell him.

Okay, considering you did it from home, your principal shouldn't have done anything about it.

However, you also interjected "F4g" into your reply. So you weren't entirely without fault, insult wise. I say that from a ***'s perspective, though, so I'm biased.

 

[Asteroid-Man]

Pray for a Texas-sized asteroid.

This'll only hurt a little *starts making one* good buy americans of tomorrow!

 

[Sun_Down]

I just realized where these kids are from. And if the dozen people I know from Eden Prairie are any indication, these kids were par for the idiot course.

 

[amazingfantasy15]

Were they drinking on school grounds?

And the kid on the lacrosse team said the picture was taken 2 years ago, before he joined the lacrosse team and signed a pledge.

When I was in high school if you were on a sports team and caught smoking or drinking on or off school grounds, you'd be suspended from the team. Of course, this was before the days of Facebook and MySpace, so not as many got caught, but if both these were around then, I'm sure there'd be a lot more suspended athletes. Dumb kids, don't post pics like that on the internet!

 

[Logan's Runt]

Haha, Eden Prairie.

I'm tempted, being that is Hereos...but not sure I really want to sign up for facebook (since I already have myspace(just dont want to have another thing that is similair)...what's this game about? if it's really worth it I might (I friggin LOVE Hereos)

 

[spideyboy_1111]

you take a test, get powers based off it... and then fight other players gaining exp in which u can gain more powers. i think its pretty well thought out..

personally i enjoy facebook more then myspace these days anyway, it focuses less on your page and more about games and communication

 

[Morg]

It's not worth it, have a account there and not going add it to my page

 

[Damien Rage]

hmmm...now I'm in a pickle...I love love love hereos...but I already play CoH/CoV...

I'm sure I'd be a Sylar type (omg Zachary Quinto is so fine) becuase I love to know how things work and why, I desire to be special and I got a streak of evil in me =)

Identity 'at risk' on Facebook

By Spencer Kelly
Presenter, BBC Click

Personal details of Facebook users could potentially be stolen, the BBC technology programme Click has found.

The popular social networking site allows users to add a variety of applications to their profile.
But a malicious program, masquerading as a harmless application, could potentially harvest personal data.
Facebook says users should exercise caution when adding applications. Any programs which violate their terms will be removed, the network said.

Stealing details
Facebook is the darling of the moment, allowing friends to stay in touch, post photos, and share fun little games and quizzes. And it also lets you keep your details private from the rest of the world. Or at least that is the implication.

 

[C.F. Kane]

As long as you don't post your social security number, you should be fine.

 

[Nirvana]

Agreed.

 

[Leto Atrides]

While we could not get all details, what we did get, included his name, hometown, school, interests and photograph, would certainly help us to steal someone's identity.
...
We wrote an evil data mining application called Miner, which, if we wanted, could masquerade as a game, a test, or a joke of the day. It took us less than three hours.

Is this a threat BBC?

 

[ActuallyRobin]

I feel fairly safe, i don't really sign up to many apps at all, plus the 'crucial' personal info i put on my profile is kept to a minimum, and I try to keep the privacy settings so only the people who'm I want to see it, see it.

 

[skorponok]

I knew there was a concrete reason that I denied all of the applications

 

[Morg]

I don't even used my real name on FB so I'm not worried

 

[Captain Planet!]

Are You A Target On Facebook?

No.

 

[Monster]

Haha.

 

[Magneto29]

Keep your profile private. Simple as that.
I always feel creeped out though when I get friend requests from people that I know I have never met, nor have any friend connections to. I always wonder how they even found my profile. The same goes for myspace....

 

[The Geek Vault]

I hate apps!

 

[The Dude]

I love when you don't go on for a week and then you have 137 app requests.
