Joined Facebook 2 days ago! Added a political page and ...

[doublethink]

And now they want my cell phone # to get back into the account. Not gonna happen, locked out I guess for good, lol. Never did like the privacy issues with that site. Anyway made a couple of 'cover photos' for the page in there from stuff I got off DU, and Huffington post. Feel free to use them if you have a FB account or just wanna pass them around.



and



Here's the page link ...

More stuff on the page I collected to pass around, carry on.

1. Will do!

Thanks for the graphics!

3. No problem. Very welcome. n.t. :)

2. I've never given a phone number or address to

facebook. Just and e-mail address and that doesn't even have to be legit.

5. Scanned around the internet ...

and I guess they don't require it from everybody ... yet ... ??? But I got locked out and they won't reactivate the account without a cell #, ... maybe because my account is so new? Who knows.

4. I never give them my cell phone number on that page. I just skip it and go do

whatever it was I was gonna do. Just check your messages or activity and it will take you away from that page.

6. I remember that notice ...

Yeah I got the thing you're talking about the first night I created the account ... but now this message comes up ...

"Please provide a response for the security check to continue we need you to provide your mobile phone number this quick security check helps keep facebook a community of real people who connect and share using their real identities if you ever lose your password you ll also be able to use your mobile number to access your account" -snip-

And it won't let me 'skip' this now to try and log in. But thanks for the response. Peace.

7. No, that's the one I skip. I log in, the page comes up, and I just go up top and click one of the

icons for messages or activity. Works for me, for some reason.

[doublethink]

9. That's what came up the first night but today it goes here ....

And there are no icons for messages or activity anymore ... no home page link, nada, no way to get to the home page. Just this notice and a little 'help' icon. When I click on the 'help' icon it sends me here ...



Which explains their reasoning somewhat, suspecting I have another FB account or something. Locked out and they need Cell phone, or Government ID to access the account again. When I first joined it sent me an email to confirm identity, which I did, it went through and all seemed well. Guess that wasn't good enough on day 2, lol.

Oh and it's the only FB account I had, so it was the only email account registered to FB. Took me this long to finally decide to join that site being so suspicious of it anyway. Que sara, sera. Peace.

10. Weird! I dunno what that's all about, then.

8. You can bypass that.

Not an FB'r myself but I do have a fake account for various reasons.
