Guess who is now on Facebook...

Unread post by MQT1223 »

ME! :D My old man doesn't know so don't tell! :twisted: Give the page some time to develop. Just thought I would tell you guys first.

Might need some help with things at first so if anyone has any tips for me let me know!

Is their anyway to get rid of my personal page so I can just keep my Youtube channel page? I really would prefer to do that or somehow combine the pages. I don't want to manage two pages.

Privacy settings. Keep your YouTube page for the stuff you want everybody to see. Set your personal page for the people you trust with your personal information (like your full name). There are some things you just don't want everybody knowing...

I'm trying to figure this thing out. I don't want a personal page. I tried searching for my Youtube page on Google and nothing popped up. I'm gonna try creating a new one.

You have to keep your personal page, unless you signed up as a celebrity or business. But, you can easily lock it down to basically nobody using privacy settings

Are you sure? The link goes to 'page not found'.

Try using FB's help pages. They might be more useful than you'd think in your situation.

Yeah, unlike much if Google, Facebook actually does a good job with their help section

Board text filter? So...spelling out PM returns MQT, or just for one user?

"Pere Marquette 1223", spaces removed, is automatically turned into "MQT1223". Doesn't matter who writes it, it happens.

I wish that I could at least have a "P" in front of that... that way the "Pere" in "Pere Marquette" makes more sense instead of me sounding like a spinoff of MQT3001.

Face it. You failed. You are the second "MQT3001". A few have even suggested that you have surpassed me even when I was at my worst.

Mucho time remains on the dunce stool. Just be glad you didn't live through the early 1900s when that was actually a thing.

Well at least make me a "PMQT3001" then so I can have some dignity... I'm sitting next to you on that stool too. I bet if you ask some your not exactly off of it. :twisted: I friend requested you on Facebook BTW...

Omg Zack... thanks for the link thing... :evil: I guess just look for me on Facebook or if Zack decided to accept my friend request look for me there... No wonder the link won't work...

"I don't want to become the next 'MQT3001'" he says.

surpasses MQT3001, he does


@Justin: that is just okay, and actually a preference. In order to achieve the rank of MQT3001, you must post way too much containing way to little.
