This is a question Social Networking Gaffes

Freddy Woo writes, "My school bully just friended me on Facebook!" No doubt he pokes him, and then demands his lunch money.

Personally, last month a scantily clad young woman confused me with her fiance, with whom I share a first and last name. I'm still not sure she's noticed, but she's going to be mortified when she does.

What's the biggest mistake you've made using a social networking site?

Knowing your audience
Well this is two stories in one. A feminist, vegetation munching hippy friend of mine asked me to join some hippy forum since the conversations were going stale and she wanted me to pep them up a bit. Being a bit of a smartass I made up a profile that said my hobbies were domestic violence and saluting stuff, and I disliked women's rights and coloured folk. That got me my first slapped wrist.

The second one came when I thought I might start a competition to see who could fit as many cusswords into the opening two sentences of the bible whilst still keeping it legible. I figured since the website was frequented by liberal, free thinking types, it might be a chortle.

That got me slapped wrist number 2, getting comments such as "Dude, not cool. You should love everyone. That's the kind of hatred that makes everything so bad in the world."

Yeah....but...no...but...oh bollocks to you all.

If I last more than a week and a half on b3ta without going off in a strop that'll be a personal best.

You've certainly started at full throttle.
I hope you don't peak too early : )

Well
I'm British, so I'll probably do well right up until the semi finals and then crash out.
