(02 Jan 2017, 11:07 am)Andreos1 Seeing that 'illegal raves' are alive and well, with one happening last night in one of the towers on the Newcastle side of the Tyne Bridge.
Police closed it down.

(02 Jan 2017, 6:59 pm)MurdnunoC What's more amusing, if you read the Chronicle's Facebook page, is that very few are condemning the rave itself. It seems half are saying 'Good on them' while the other half are wanting in know where their invite was...

So far, no arrests have been made.

(04 Jan 2017, 9:02 am)Andreos1 One comment in particular made me chuckle. It was from someone who appeared to be against the rave and was extremely concerned with the amount of pigeon sh!t in the towers and the diseases it could cause.

(12 Jan 2017, 1:50 pm)South Tyne Lad Sat here laughing at the Sad Bastard that decided to report me and a fellow enthusiast friend on Facebook for " Fake Names " Hahahahaha......

So to clear things up, I'll explain everything again.

The fact I don't have a public Bus Account with my first and last name on is because for one, I have a Personal Account with them names where people who I don't want to know I have a hobby in transport.
Two , My account isn't a fake name, Aaron is my middle name ( Albeit I rarely use ) , And its going to stay that way.

I only got back into the Facebook side of the hobby last week, And it seems someone doesn't want me on there, But , Unfortunately for whoever done this , You'll have to put up with me.

I'm not scared to criticise anyone, I'm not scared to show someone up either , I'm also not scared to say something to anyone face to face either, Which I'll jump at the chance to do when I find out who it is.

I thought I would post it on here because half of my Bus Account friends are also members of this forum, So it gets the message across quicker.

(12 Jan 2017, 2:29 pm)Jimmi Sounds about right.

I don't why this is but quite often it seems this hobby and Facebook don't mix well together, seems like just about everyday I am witnessing a argument between enthusiasts, usually over nowt, some want ape over being called tramps the other day.

As for the "someone not wanting you there" thing, stay as it will annoy them.

(12 Jan 2017, 2:37 pm)Jamie M I don't touch facebook when it comes to this stuff because the whole social network is notorious for this. I used to be uptight about my interest, but since I've let it go. It's no different from anyone being open about playing computer games or whatever, they're all hobbies.

(12 Jan 2017, 2:44 pm)BusLoverMum I don't use faceache, but I do have an account with a pseudonym, just for gaming and signups. I'm blown if I'm going to maintain a (very thin) veneer of anonymity all over the Internet, then put my life out on that particular website, for everyone to pick apart, warts and all.

(12 Jan 2017, 3:39 pm)South Tyne Lad Out of all the Social Media's I use, I find Facebook the worst, Everyone uses it to basically spread rubbish about others tbh.

(12 Jan 2017, 3:57 pm)Jimmi Spread rubbish and cause bother, someone was threatening to report me to the police for verbal abuse a few weeks back, all I said was how embarrassed I was when he shouted my name to me across the bus I got on.

Probably going to get this threat again now for posting this on here.

(12 Jan 2017, 5:32 pm)Adrian It's not going to resolve the problem of being reported for using a pseudonym, but would an alternative of creating a Facebook page work? 

You can create a photographer page or whatever, similar to what Jimmi has, and then you're abiding by Facebook's (at times ridiculous) terms of service.

(12 Jan 2017, 5:45 pm)Jimmi Here is a cheeky plug for my Facebook page, to give people an idea: https://www.facebook.com/Jimmis-Transport-Photos-1802752500006124/

It's not a bad idea in fairness, you can still receive messages from people if you set it up to do so. One downside though is I am unsure if you would be able to join Facebook Groups or not.

(12 Jan 2017, 8:42 pm)Adrian I'd expect nothing less from you Jimmi!
