Facebook bullshit

[therandombear]

I don't have facebook, neither do I want it and when I checked messages now this piece of trash appeared on the top of the escapist site.

"We have created a new facebook account for you"

The fuck?

I have no facebook account and got this message too. Has the Escapist created one for me automatically? Escapist please give us more information on this, I personally want nothing to do with that site.

I got this one to, very strange, since I'm already connected. But even if I wasn't, why are they automating it? Seems odd, if you wan't to connect, connect, if you don't wan't to, I damn sure don't want it do be done without my consent.
For shame Escapist.
Here's hoping it was a freakish bug

I hope no one is dumb enough to actually start clicking on this thing. I expect though some will and things will be stolen.

"We have created a new facebook account for you"

The fuck?

Yeah that seriously annoyed me to, but so far as I can tell its not true.

TBH I hate all the social network integration thats going on on this site, especially that meebo thing which comes and goes.

I'm pretty curious about this too, I haven't received this message yet, though I've seen many people in my group that is getting this message. It's almost too weird!

Ya, I saw Irridium's post above linking to the Tech group, as is fitting we shall Blame Kross

And yes..I too hate the meebo and the now intergrated facebook comments under videos and articles.

Just saw it on the homepage and I was like, "What the fuck? They created a Facebook account for me?!" So I decided to delete the account and realized that I couldn't sign in. Must be some tech error or something I dunno.

I don't want a Facebook account nor do I need one.

I'd also like to know what the fuck is going on - I don't have a Facebook account, nor do I want one - and I sure as hell don't want my email being passed off to them without my permission - just what the hell is going on here?

So what happens if I don't want anything to do with Facebook?

You're made a D-Linc and forced to work in the reactor core.

At least thats what I heard.

Did the escapist start using Flowplayer for video content or was that just my fiddling with my browser? Because i returned everything to how it was and Flowplayer is still there, with it's annoying watermark.

edit: it's gone
