People who don't let you see their wall on Facebook

If they wanted to hide shit, then why are they on Facebook to begin with? Why do they friend you or accept your request when you friend them if they're that anal about who looks at their profile? Just save yourself the effort and click "decline".

And I'm not talking about spambots or fake profiles. I'm talking about real people/friends.

It's only a small group of people that do this, but I find it silly.

I know most of you don't give two shits about this thread, but for those who have thought about this too before, your thoughts? What do you think when someone makes a blatant attempt to hide most of their profile from you?

i'm off facebook now cause i have no friends, but there are some weird things going on in facebook land.

1) why do people you've never talked to since 6th grade or never talked to period insist on friending you?

2) did all these people really take this many pictures everytime they drank a beer?

3) are some of these trying to make up for their small cock by writing the ridiculous shit in their status field?

If you're not on my friends list, you can't see my wall, photos or anything else relevant. Apart from the fact that i would get 'real' older turkish men creeping on my profile and sending me messages, my ex-boyfriend used to send me these dicey messages about still being in 'love' with me etc. makes sense, no?

They've told me some pretty wild private stuff about themselves before in conversation, but won't let me see their wall.

some people may have family, employers, etc as their friends on facebook and don't want their buddies posting about how many drugs, drinks, and bitches were done the prior night for all to see.

facebook is serious biz niz. Remember the time Slyee had her silent meltdown and de-friended the entire COR.

But seriously, we all need boundaries in our private life, I don't need family members viewing my shirtless photo session on the couch.

To go along with this many people use the same email for resumes and such that they associated with facebook. A quick search will tell a recruiter all they need to know to forward an applicant's resume to the round-brown filing cabinet that sits on the floor next to their desk.

I solved that issue by just creating a professional email address.

But what would you consider more personal: access to all of one's photos, or their wall?

That's entirely subjective based on the content of each.

there are a lot of creepy people that want to find out about your life and what you do ... to a point that it can be used against you.

Precisely.

I have a cousin who moved to the States from Morocco, he turned a complete manwhore and would post outrageous (by his family's standards) photos and status updates. Somehow his father saw it all and shipped him back to Morocco overnight. Now his wall/photos are disabled. What a dumbass.

I'm smart and have a second account specifically for family / family friends.

Idiots. People who don't let you see their wall are idiots.

That just means you fail at Facebook.

Step 1. Create group
Step 2. Put "undesirables" (family members, work colleagues, shlubs etc) in said group.
Step 3. Block group.
Step 4. Brag about STDs

Protip: Make a group with friends and block everyone except said group, and continue bragging about STDs.

And to the gimp who posted this thread, if we think you're a tool, everyone on facebook seems to as well, maybe it's actually true?
