Facebook observations

he does have 2 pages. he uses both for his business, so not sure why he has 2 pages.

for example -

joe schmoe - hey guys, I just read that Mr Jones died! the pervy teacher who got away with that shit cause it was the 80s is now DEAD! how about that?

I highly doubt the response to that would be fleeing the group. people would then probably talk about Mr Jones.

as opposed to:

bitch - STOP WHAT YOUR DOING AND click on and download my shitty music video NOW!

mass fleeing and silence other than me telling her off

yes, she used “your” rather than “you’re” incorrectly.

Yup, this is the norm especially for gay people because our personal pages are usually full of shirtless party pics.

Yeah, but it’s pretty silly to get out of a group to “protest” one random stupid post. i could maybe understand if the group became her own little place to send out stupid shit. But it was one post.

I don’t use FB much, but do people usually rage quit after one silly post?

nope

I didnt claim rage. I claimed they had zero interest in her trying to make money off them. As i said, even 7 years later had she said something even remotely relevant to anything other than her pathetic attempt to make money people probably would have responded rather than flat out quit

You are just disagreeing with me to be annoying and not because you actually think that though

Not really. I just don’t think people quit because of one “download my video” post.

If these people really saw value in the group, they wouldn’t just drop out. They would contact the moderator and ask him or her to tell this chick to stop posting irrelevant stuff. Or, just ignore it. Seems better than just quitting the group.

Again, my guess it that the people forgot about this group and were remined of it when the woman made her post. Then they quit.

Sure, maybe a “that pervy teacher died” post wouldn’t have garnered resignations,

But I really doubt these people were sending any message to the woman by abandoning the group.

You should DM the people who left and ask them why.

the message they sent by leaving the group was that they have zero interest in her video to look at or download. that seems pretty obvious to me. you think they left and went and downloaded her video?

and AGAIN it wasn’t a “group”. it was a private message. there is also a group associated with it that she also posted her inane garbage in. they probably didn’t see that though. 1 of the 3 is no longer in that group. no idea what prompted him to leave that because you don’t get notification when someone leaves a group, just a DM exchange.

You would need to ask them. Neither you nor I know the answer for sure. We both a putting forth plausible scenarios.

if they had interest in her video, they would have likely commented on it rather than leave the pm immediately. interested people don’t just leave the conversation.

But people don’t leave because they are uninterested in just one post.

you don’t seem to really have a point here. her marketing tactic is a massive failure as it resulted in people leaving the DM. not sure what your point even is anymore other than to argue.

Might help the business to merge the pages

I don’t “friend” coworkers or other actuaries on facebook. I first made that decision when a friend posted a lot of photos of topless drunk guys at parties. And the photos were all visible to friends of friends, and I realized that I didn’t want the department admin to see those on my page. And that I cared more about keeping in touch (on Facebook) with the guy who posted those photos, than with people I saw every day at work anyway.

So I unfriended the few coworkers I had already friended (this was soon after I started using facebook, so I didn’t have a lot of facebook friends, yet) and have basically followed that rule ever since.
