How To Protest The Facebook Timeline

Just Thought That I Would Share The Following Message Is Being Circulated Around Many Peoples Facebook Walls;

Undo Timeline

Despite being told Timeline is mandatory, we can protest through the ads. Reposting this article by Randy Abrams- "..there is something you can do that will be effective if millions of protesters join in. If you make timelines unattractive to advertisers then Facebook will either listen or disable feedback. Here is how you effectively protest.

When you visit a page go straight to the ads and point to the upper right corner of the ad. This will make a little X appear that you can click on and choose to hide the ad. Next you will be asked why you are hiding the ad. I suggest you choose “other” and type in “Protest Timeline”.

The Hangar – New Buildable Property

The Hangar Is Out And Ready For Parts To Be Begged For.

You Have 14 Days To Get Enough Parts To Get Your Hangar To Level 15. Sounds Impossible Like The Previous Property Was For Too Many Of Us.

So Let The Begging Begin. Ask For Your Parts An Hopefully You Get Enough People To Help You.

Once You Get The Hangar Upgraded Just Once You Can Start Building Items That Are Contained Within. These Items Are Shown Below.

The Last Property Had Ridiculous Requirements That Many Of Us Didn’t Meet Even Though It Allowed You To Gift Welding Torches. This Property Doesn’t Offer That Luxury. Therefore, I Wonder How Pathetically Ridiculous The Requirement For Parts For This Property Will Be. In Addition To The Cost Of RP To Buy Your Parts. Here We Go.

					RP’s Needed To Upgrade Each Level
LEVEL	Hammer Drill	Plaster	Cordless Drill	Total Parts
1	1	1	1	3	6
2	1	2	1	4	8
3	2	3	2	7	14
4	3	4	3	10	20
5	4	6	4	14	28
6	5	8	5	18	36
7	10	11	10	31	62
8	12	15	12	39	78
9	14	19	14	47	94
10	16	23	16	55	110
11	18	27	18	63	126
12	20	31	20	71	142
13	22	35	22	79	158
14	24	39	24	87	174
15	26	43	26	96	192

TOTALS	178	267	178	624	1248

We Would Also Like To Address This Mess Shown Below.

Zynga Only Allows Players To Send 5 Of Any Part And 5 Of Specific Parts Every 8 Hours While Allowing Players To Collect 10 Of Any And 10 Specific Within The Same 8 Hour Period. Zynga Also Allows You To Collect 3 Free From Wall Posts Where Others Have Upgraded Their Property.

We Know That You Want Your Parts. We Do To. But Spamming People With Instant Messages With Links (Especially More Than One) IS NOT COOL. If We Click All 5 Of Those Links Then We Can Not Send Any Parts To Anyone Else. That Is Not Fair To Others In Our Mafia’s.

If You Do Spam Someone With These Links Then Be Prepared To Send Parts Back. Many Times These People Are Just About Getting Their Properties Built But Do Not, And Can Not, Help Everyone They Beg From.

Please Be Respectful And Understand That Many Of Us Are In The Same Boat As You With These Limitations Set Forth By Zynga. Many Of Us Won’t Get The Property Built To Level 15. Many Of Us Are Considering Not Even Participating In These Over-Demanding, Over-Burdening, Buildable Properties. They Are No Longer Fun.
