Well let's see...you could set up your own website, use myspace, in fact, you could do it anywhere you want on the internet! Facebook removes nudity when they find it and you can report posts like anywhere else. Essentially you're annoyed because Facebook is a more popular forum than this one it seems.

Why are you doing a tongue pulling smiley? Are you really so proud of that gobbledegook?

I can see why people here think you're such a Twit.

Sure you could setup your own website, but the one place where everything I mentioned is open to abuse is Facebook.

I never said I don't like it, I use it to keep in touch with old friends and also use some of my local trading groups to sell stuff too, its cheaper and more personal than ebay.

But it is open to abuse more than anywhere else on the whole of the internet, and I think its terribly unregulated, it might be a mammoth job to Police it, but Facebook needs to put more checks in place so that people can't use it for abuse.

Apart from everything I've mentioned in my previous post about the ways it can be abused, the latest trend around my home area, the North West, is to track down peoples dogs, steal them from their properties and then use them in dog fights either as bait or for one of the opponents, There are even several people whose pages I've seen (and these people keep their pages made public, because they like boasting and the attention) That openly boast that one of their interests is dog fighting, badger baiting etc, with videos and photos to back up their interests too.

I know of at least dozen dogs, mostly staffies, that have been pinched from peoples gardens for use in these dog fights and even though these pages have been reported to ebay, maybe 100's of times, the pages are still up and the accounts of these people are still open.

So why do you think that I think Facebook is 99% open to abuse ?

Because its simply easier to do it there than anywhere else.
