*#%&@*$ Bebo

How can I contact a HUMAN from the actual Bebo company on that website? I've tried reaching them 3 times now regarding a fake profile and the one automated response I got said my request was dismissed. Also, does Bebo have a parent company?

Bebo the networking site that is used by 11-14 year old girls posing semi nude then report u for looking?


blah dont go on that site lol

Bebo's ultimate parent company is Time Warner, as of 18 months or so ago. AOL has been involved in looking after Bebo too, since it's been merged with Time Warner over that period, but it in turn is owned by Time Warner(100% as of last month).
I've tried contacting Bebo "representatives" in the past myself regarding various problems with that site, and it hasn't happened for me either.

I've found Bebo to be just a total car crash of a social networking site. I personally just wouldn't bother with it. Facebook, MySpace etc. thoroughly whoop it in every department.

Gui, the sites Tagged and Bebo are the in a way the same thing as it uses the same system and the same type of interface. It's full of problems and due to them being a little companies, you're issues aren't going to be solved all that quickly. However, there is usually a Report sign or link on the profile somewhere so just click on that and see if that helps.

I can't imagine he hasn't tried that yet.

Also kudos to Sheepy's reponse

Love Sheepy's response, and thanks guys . I don't plan on using it but when trying to find out about Football Manager 2007 back in late 2007, I found a fake account on Bebo where someone took my info from the game and made one there and used a free translator to Portuguese where they botched it all and say horrible stuff about me and my preferences. I could think of a couple of names of people who'd have done it (for fun too, not hatred) but they'll never confess or take it down.

They had a ton of friends and comments and I've contacted Bebo but was ignored and I saw an article where someone took such thing to court and got it taken down. So I ask because I want to talk to someone who's involved in it where they'll see it's better to take it down than to ignore me.

ROFLMAO @ Vader!!

/rant alert!

Bebo was awesome. It took off here in 2005 (I was on it from pretty much the start) and just about revolutionised everything for young people, and that's not really an exaggeration. It slowly developed and they started copying all the stuff Facebook had to make it better and to be quite honest it was brilliant, about a year ago the mix between Bebo and Facebook was perfect - apart from all the fake people that continuously add you, but hey, some of those were entertaining I guess

Then, for some reason, everyone stopped using Bebo and switched to Facebook. And Bebo died. It's now a ghost town. I still can't understand this. Facebook is grand, but it is nothing compared to what Bebo once was. Facebook is unnecessarily complicated, seems to be ridiculously unstable considering it's such a massive site (regularly crashes both IE and Firefox for me, as well as just plain weird crap happening), doesn't have the features that made Bebo entertaining like blogs, polls, quizzes, and is completely useless for bands, music etc (Bebo was actually a superb site for putting up a band page. I could never understand why bands in general continually persisted with the gigantic ball of time-consuming, head-wrecking shite that was myspace.)

Facebook is just a load of photos of drunk ex-teenagers who join random groups like "The group for people who like to drink milk after eating a packet of Fruit Gums" in a vain attempt to look cool and hip and relevant. Unfortunately, since Bebo died, I have to use it. And if Twitter ends up taking over from Facebook, then I will consign myself to the Stone Age. I couldn't live with myself if I ended up using THAT piece of crap regularly.


/rant over.

I'll agree with the Facebook bit of that rant. I mean when it was the old facebook it was extremely better. You had more people on it and yet you still didn't feel a server load. However, now it's just too slow. And the groups, everyone's done that :p

Even our dear own Chet has his

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO TWITTER!

It's great.

Is this a joke? Im not a big facebook user but even i know theres a stupid amount of quizes you can do / make, and whats the "Wall" if its not a blog. ?

The wall is not a blog in the same way as Bebo had a blog. With Bebo you could write a big long article about whatever, post it to your blog and it stayed there forever, people could read and comment whenever they wanted Posting a blog on The Wall it gets shoved out fairly quickly by comments, your "what you're doing now" comments, photos uploaded etc. Bebo had a different section entirely devoted to comments which made it far easier to read.

Same thing for the quizzes. Post a quiz/poll about anything you want on Bebo, it's there forever, anyone can do it at anytime. Facebook does have these "Top 5" things bit which is probably the best thing going for it. Assuming of course, your computer doesn't start waving the white flag when you try and do one, as it does for mine at work.

I believe work is for work, not for facebook.

I do a lot of installing programs at work. That means a lot of waiting around doing nothing. Why else do you think I'm on here posting inane comments all day?

Sh!ts and giggles?

Facebook is the only one I use, I looked at Bebo but I didn't like the way it was customisable...

I'd go on to friends pages and they'd have say..a football team photo as their background making it almost impossible to read anything on their page and then after a couple of minutes some random RnB song starts singing about having sexual intercourse in a night time drinking venue from a singer who aparently tells people where to sit in Church.

Not saying Facebook's perfect though, it's quite funny reading some peoples status updates, you get some who will say something like "blah blah..has had the worst day ever!" and if you ask them whats wrong they say "oh I can't talk about it on facebook" :|. It used to be quite bad for getting asked to join random groups and applications but I don't really get anything from people now..
