But I decided to just make all new accounts. cept Fun Piece. I hate that place now.
Like Fun Piece was tolerable before, right?
-
how exactly would you like help?
This just seems like a bit of an outlet more so than a request for help. -
I need:
To move all my friends from my old account to the new one
Take down my old Facebook account.

Depending on which email address you use, you may be able to regain control of your accounts. Most email services offer a password reset option.
-
OK, I was going to provide actual help, but I guess it's not welcomed.
Contact Facebook and provide proof that you are the rightful owner of the account.
Not much else you can do.
edit: Freedom, he said they took over his e-mail account as well.
-
Your help is welcome. Bombing Washington is just spam.
Yes, I know they took over his account, but if he can recover the email as well, then why not.
I've seen articles on news sites about deleting your facebook account, so I'm sure there's information available on the procedure.
-
Yes. Do a Goodle search of the process of deleting your Facebook account. It's out there, easy to find because of all the brouhaha over privacy issues right now. The problem is that there's a lag–-it takes two weeks of never accessing any sort of link what-so-ever to your account for it to take (so, for example, if you joined other sites through Facebook, get a link from outside Facebook before you delete, or you'll undo the delete as soon as you access that site as well) . But if someone else accesses the account using the same password, I think it would just undo the deletion on you and you'd be back to square one again. You need to contact Facebook, pronto.
I did a quick search on Google and found this on Facebook acount deletion: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=16929680703
Here's a site that helps check your Facebook account for privacy issues that you may want to use after you get this straightened out: http://www.reclaimprivacy.org/facebookBut how did they gain control? If you have spyware (although I can't see why someone would bother with spyware for something that doesn't involve money in some way) you would need to get all that removed before attempting any sort of recovery of your accounts.
-
Also, something you may not have thought of:
If you use Amazon/Ebay/Paypal through the specific e-mail account you've lost control of, I suggest you call your credit card companies and either freeze them, or block access to those accounts. -

Asuncion is the city I often claim to hail from. Among the Latin American countries, Paraguay has a pretty bad reputation, and by extension its capital has an even worse one. Paraguay's status in Latin American is comparable to Singapore in the South Chinese Pacific.
Claiming to be from Asuncion is a sort of inside joke on IRC, suggesting the worst posters come from the worst country that can still access the internet. I rarely see other people who I don't know are already in on the joke claim to be from Paraguay…it's like meeting someone from Kazakhstan online who isn't just claiming to be from there because of Borat, so I'm just curious if aegis is familiar with the joke or if he's an actual native.
If the latter…I'm bashing your country to a certain extent, please don't take it personally aegis. I've just read a lot of horrible stuff happens in Paraguay. :/
-
Just so you guys know, douchebags didn't TAKE OVER anything. He gave them the passwords to his accounts.
And Aegis, no one took over your fun piece account. I scrambled your password after you came crying to me for the third time to delete your account. Honestly Aegis I tried to help you out but you just bring it on yourself half the time. and don't give out your passwords to anyone… ever

So then you're saying Paraguay is a wealthy hyper modern trading mecca completely absent in regional problems.
Because that's what Singapore is.
That's pretty much the antithesis of Paraguay.

There's a guy from Pakistan here. It's not as weird as you seem to think.
And Kazakhstan isn't even all that bad. It's better then Paraguay by far. -
@JERK:

… I'm going to go on a limb... Tamagon?

Hall of Shame.
16 flavours of fail.
-
Terek I want to know why you thought Singapore was a third world mess? I mean they have a sketchy democracy, but otherwise?
-
Ahh, Singapore. I love the rapper man with a massive mole on his cheek on every train.
-
When I think Singapore the first thing that comes to mind are the black market industries, child prostitution, pornography and snuff videos. I don't know why, but for some reason Singapore is famous for being dirty. I wasn't really thinking of economics when I drew that comparison, I don't know if there is one in Asia or Africa that's a good analog for South American socio-economics.

Well perhaps you should register a new Hotmail account. They say you should only have one, but everyone ignores that anyway. So …
And is it Facebook rape? Or did someone actually hack your password?
Anyway, as of tonight, Facebook updatd their security & protection stuff.So just setup your new Hotmail, and contact Facebook, saying Hi, my name is ___ and my facebook name is ____
and (perhaps give them your Profile ID, which it says in the Url of your FB profile page) hopefully they'll sort it out for you :) -
Oh Aegis, giving out your password to people you know aren't exactly trustworthy and not thinking twice about it. You're so wacky like that!
But honestly, I don't know what to say. This is incredibly stupid, even for you.

I know I got the accounts-that-they-took-over BY-means-of-me-stupidly giving-my-passwords-to-them.
The damage was minimal and all is well now.
I never asked for your help but thanks for scrambling it.
-

They who? Hot mail?
-
They who? Hot mail?
Yeah I'm pretty sure it says that somewhere in their rules or whatever, but it's not like they do anything.
Loads of people make many account on hotmail anyway, so .. -
Why would you ever give out your password to anyone for anything.. especially someone forum user that you don't know on the internet? I mean, what did you expect was going to happen?
Freedom actually tried to help you, but I think you're beyond help at this point. The problem is inside you and spreading.

You're thinking of Thailand aren't you. Which is still better then most of it's neighbors.
I don't know why, but for some reason Singapore is famous for being dirty.
Singapore is famous for being CLEAN. You can get fines for spitting gum on roads, and leaving public restrooms unflushed. They enforce the death penalty for people who smuggle drugs into the country. They have a zero tolerance for any sort of piracy, there are submarines and shit all around it that would turn any pirates into rubar. Singapore is one of nicest cities in the world point blank. Probably nicer then wherever you live.

Muhahaha, Singarpore is the best country in ASEAN.
I was offered a scholarship to Singapore.
