Ttfjlc Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 Account settings, notifications, email, then select the last option. Should add there doesn't appear to be an option to turn them off completely but the last option of only being notified about account changes etc seems to be the best option for you.

team tractor Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 Yep Delete the evil FB..... Problem solved compared to the infinite problems having FB gives..... It gives no problems if used correctly . Even my parents have it in their 60s to see my kiddies and work wise it's been a god send. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malkiserow Posted March 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 Thanks chaps. I only joined up recently. I must admit I don't really understand how to use it. I've never written anything or done the "likes" etc I just read some of the content on fieldsports groups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

39TDS Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 It gives no problems if used correctly . Even my parents have it in their 60s to see my kiddies and work wise it's been a god send. It does have it's uses but very easy to end up getting involved in the pointless aspects of people's lives you are not even interested in. Took a big step back from it recently but not walked away as my grandson is in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oliver90owner Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 Ahh, twitface, the place where the scoundrels can locate exactly where pictures are taken (from the 'non-encoded' data which accompanies them), where the scoundrels can easily work out members' routines and often when they are away on holiday, where youngsters risk being 'groomed' by lowlife. Etc, etc, etc, etc. Family photograhs can so easily be emailed to a family group of recipients, instead of potentially the whole world, so that is just a weak excuse. Yes, just another supposedly invaluable, or even the only way, to keep in touch with family and friends - and how many thousands have fallen for the gaffe? But everyones choice, I suppose. OK until it all goes wrong for you. All the advantages and none of the down-sides are out there extolling the virtues of it. I wonder why? To make more money out of more mugs, by any chance? Better off being private with emails rather than public on titface, I reckon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
