robbalvey Posted January 4, 2010 Author Share Posted January 4, 2010 I have my Facebook set to English(Pirate), which explains the pirate language. I can't believe I'm taking advice from someone who has their English set to "Priate!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netdvn Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 ^ Hey! Facebook pirate is totally awesome! Probably the greatest Facebook Easter egg of all time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted March 3, 2010 Author Share Posted March 3, 2010 WTF is wrong with Facebook lately? Seems like every day I'm getting errors or it just simply won't load. This is what Facebook looks like for me right now... WTF FACEBOOK!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbalvey Posted March 3, 2010 Author Share Posted March 3, 2010 ^ It's working fine again now but it seems crap like this is showing up on my screen (with pretty much any browser) more often lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcjaco Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 It was taking twenty minutes last night to leave a comment. I decided to play GTA IV instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Last night was hilarious, my news feed came up with HIDE next to everyone, it wouldn't refresh, I couldn't leave comments without "oops something went wrong' showing up like 8 times first! So far so good today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfc Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 I've found that most Facebook problems can be solved by leaving the site, then coming back, but I've been pretty annoyed with their performance since the "upgrade," too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCFreak Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Funny enough, it seemed like every other action I would try to take before the upgrade would always lead to "an error has occurred." But after the upgrade, I get it about once or twice a week instead of once ever hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meteornotes Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 When Facebook does work lately, seems like I spend most of my time blocking stupid applications... dt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moinab Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Funny enough, it seemed like every other action I would try to take before the upgrade would always lead to "an error has occurred." But after the upgrade, I get it about once or twice a week instead of once ever hour. Same for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NINCUB Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Wow! Robb it totally sucks that you have to waste your time and effort on a thread like this! I am not surprised, but saddened. Not TOO sad, but sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netdvn Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Facebook has always been acting kinda wonky for Firefox users with chat errors, slow application load times, constant errors, etc... Even before the "upgrade". At least for me that is... I've been using a proxy program to access my Facebook from home so Facebook acts funny for me, but if you're using Firefox, I would suggest using a different browser like Chrome, Opera, or even "shudders" IE for your Facebooking.

robbalvey Posted May 28, 2010 Author Share Posted May 28, 2010 (edited) If you are reading this thread for the first time, READ THIS POST FIRST: http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=833458#p833458 Ok, I think it's really time to bump this because recently I've found quite a few people tagging me in photos that I'm either not really in, or not looking at the camera, or just looking terrible (like more terrible than normal!) Please, I beg of all of you who are going through photos and uploading them to Facebook... DON'T TAG SOMEONE IN PHOTOS IF THEY LOOK BAD IN THE PHOTO! No one wants a crappy picture of them plastered on their wall! Edited May 28, 2010 by robbalvey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Benvenuto Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 ^ If you're still having trouble with apps making it to your wall, you can also contact the developers about said problems and I'm sure they'd take care of any concerns or problems you still have. I've done it in the past, and I've gotten myself removed from their databases. Especially phone prank apps, I've had to file legal notices with them on how people abused their apps and have harassed me with them. Just passing this by, if it can help any, Robb.

robbalvey Posted July 13, 2010 Author Share Posted July 13, 2010 I think it's time we give this thread another bump! Especially with TPR trips in full swing now and many of us taking lots of photos it's important to understand good "Facebook Photo Etiquette." I've added a few new items to the front page, so please take a look here: http://themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=833458#p833458 Thank you! --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nowaymang Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 This is quite educational. I just passed the link on to my FB friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six Flags Enthuseast Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 I agree. I tag a lot of people in photos, so I guess these are good tips. I'll pass the link on too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smells_like_team_disney Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 This sure is a lot of information to take in all at once. Thank you, Robb, for starting this thread, and thanks to everyone who have contributed their advice. I never got into the habit of posting many pics on myspace, and I am still very new to facebook. I can honestly say that I have tagged a few people that weren't the main subject matter of a picture, although I don't believe I have tagged anyone in an unflattering pose. However, if you feel the need to untag yourself from one of my pictures, please do. I will not take offense. Like I said before, I'm still very new to facebook and continue to learn the dos and don'ts of posting pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krazekiddd Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 This deserves a severe bump! I have some detagging to do today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted August 29, 2010 Author Share Posted August 29, 2010 Same here. While I appreciate people wanting to feature me in their updates, if I'm just standing around in the back of a photo, please don't tag me. Seriously. Don't tag me. If I want to be tagged in your photos, I'll do it myself. --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Clinksalot Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 ^ I think people figure that if they tag you they are going to get more hits on their facebook page. This is probably true, but if you aren't really in the picture, there is no point in tagging. It's just annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted August 30, 2010 Author Share Posted August 30, 2010 And here are some examples of photos where I have been tagged in lately that I've either left the tag or removed it. Hopefully this will help you with future photo tagging... YES! It's a good photo, I'm looking at the camera, and the people being tagged are the focal points of the picture. Good tagging job! NO!!!! It's a horrible, unflattering photo of me. I'm not looking at the camera. Why would someone even post this let alone tag it? It's horrible. YES! I'm the focal point of the picture, and you can see it's a picture of "me taking a picture of someone taking a picture." It's fine. NO!!! Can you even spot Robb Alvey in this picture? I sure can't. But I guess I am somewhere because I was tagged. Annoying! YES! Again, I'm the focal point of the photo, it's a good picture of someone having fun. Great tagging job! NO!!! Similar photo, but you can't even tell that's me. Why bother tagging this one? YES! It's a picture of me. It's funny. Good work on proper use of tagging etiquette! NO! NO! NO!!!! Seriously, WTF even is this? Silhouette view of the bus? You can't make out ANYONE in this photo! But yet, I was tagged in it. Beyond terrible!!! I apologize if I've offended anyone with this update, but I just find poor use of judgment tagging Facebook photos a HUGE PET PEEVE of mine! If I want to be tagged in your photos, I'll do it myself. Thank you. --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dailey Enterprizes Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Though I haven't been on any TPR trips per say I've been tagged in photos on facebook where it's not even me in the picture! Facebook can suck in so many ways... looking forward to my first TPR trip someday soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chadster Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 YES! It's a picture of me. It's funny. Good work on proper use of tagging etiquette! this photo might also pass if it were tagged as Michael Jackson... jk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
