  • Hi Stacey, once Timeline goes live you cannot revert back.
    ALL Facebook members are getting Timeline. There is NO choice to not have it.
    I also notice that all members complaining are still Facebook members. The point being is that Facebook continues to grow everyday without anyone leaving!

  • It's not like some people can just go to there activity log and go through thousands and thousands of "activities", trying to hide them by clicking "hide from timeline". Some people don't have the patience nor the time. O.o Especially for people that have been using facebook a long time, they might have some history in the past that they don't want people to know. Some people may be able to delete their history within a few hours, but for those that have been using facebook for a long time, deleting might take...

  • I agree with everyone who wants the old facebook back, activating that timeline is a bunch of bs, and frankly i hate it!! why is facebook always changing things, we should be able to choose how we want our own profiles, not how they want it, and everytime they change there site our privacy setting get changed too, quit screwing around facebook, it was good when i first joined now this site is gay balls!!!

  • There is no 'Fix' for Timeline, because nothing is broken!
    ALL new members get Timeline, and all current members have either got it already or are about to get it.
    Don't delete your profile, otherwise you also remove access to any Username you have.
    Once an account is deactivated the original username cannot be used again!

  • But you are not answering my question? How would an app made, with a "made up" name have anything to do with our Timeline Profile? How on earth would it recognize our profile and then remove it? And IF you could do that you also need to access your original profile or you could delete your account I would think.

  • No it will not and who told you that just making up an app and calling it Timeline will recognize our profile? You will loose everything... and have to start all over again. I play games and would loose all my farms in Farmville and all my progress in all the other games as well. And I would loose all the data in the current account. Rachel, it would be as if you had never been on FB.

  • Sharon, for posts to show up on your timeline they need to actually type something in the text box before they post, I have no idea why that is, just some bug. I use a bookmark to force my newsfeed to just show game posts but you still have to look down it to find the ones they posted on your wall but if you have alot of status update spam it helps

I have never done anything like this before, so I am asking how do I make a bookmark that will show my newsfeed??? Interesting.. I know how to make a bookmark to save a page from the internet of course, is it along the same lines as this?

  • Just add that link as a bookmark in your browser, then after you login you can click it and your newsfeed just shows game posts, clicking the facebook logo on top left will then return your regular feed with normal status updates and stuff.

  • Hmm, yeah if you have 500 gaming friends that bookmark wouldn't be that useful , sadly I have no idea if it's possible to just make it display posts made only to your profile. Might browse around the FV forums or even send them a email. Zynga really needs to get on Facebook about the posts not showing up.

  • The main thing is as it is forced upon you then walk with your pocket book in hand as far from facebook as you can. They are obviously not game friendly anymore and will definitely be the downfall of zynga and playdom and other gaming companies. MY only reason for being on facebook is the games and if the ability to use them is gone then there is no need for facebook and I just take my 20-40 dollars a month I now spend and run back to big fish games. I hate that because I have really come to enjoy the interaction with others that I found on facebook. Games such as farmville, cafe world, frontierville and mafia wars all demand the ability to request items from friends and this timeline makes that completely impossible. A few of my friends have it. So far I don't but I have already stopped spending money in protest. They will find that getting people to spend money looking around their site will get harder when those over 45 women and retired folks with money to spare and no families to support lose interest in their site. as it goes the new timeline will only appeal to teenagers. I have followed thru the comments and looked up most of those who like it and low and behold all young children, not the ones with their wallets open.
