Regarding Facebook Chat:
Does anyone know why I need to "Turn Off Chat" every time I login to Facebook. It is clearly designed to login automatically, Facebook doesn't respect the user's wishes to remain "offline". It keeps logging in, as if they think my FB web engagement is going to increase for being available to chat. As a result I use FB less. Anybody knows why FB is becoming so unusable?
- vilqqu 13y agoI don't know why that is, but you can get around it by creating an empty list of friends and adding it to the 'Turn on chat for only some friends...' section of the advanced chat settings.
- ladino 13y agolooks like a FB bug: http://www.facebook.com/help/326603310765065 http://www.facebook.com/help/326603310765065
- sidmkp96 13y agoThat means u r signed in from some other place, like your Smartphone, or some IM client like Trillian etc, or u have Facebook Messenger installed on ur phone, due to which u r always online when u sign-in.
- antr 13y agoI thought about this, but I don't have any FB app on my mobile, nor use an IM client (except HipChat for work).
- SimHacker 13y agoProbably just some NSA agent logged into your account.
- sidmkp96 13y agoDid u use a IM Client like IMO by any chance? Because with IMO, even if u remove it (while ur status was online from IMO client), u r still signed into Facebuk. I eventually had to download it again, sign-in, changed my status to offline. And since then, I haven't faced any issue.
