    ok - on facebook earlier. And i did my top fans for the laugh. And my ex is my top viewer. Ok - hes not my friend on fb and my prof is private - is this true? Or is my fb gathering random people. I deleted him a year ago. Sorry but i just have to ask. I havent thought about him in ages, but now i feel like bawling..
    Grr i hate feelings..:eek:

    No it is not accurate at all, that happened to my sister before.

    Completely random people were picked and it was in no way true!

    Yes, to second what the previous poster said, the names are chosen randomly, this list is in no way accurate.

    Facebook should really do away with those sort of things. Causes too much aggro. Just 5 years ago this sort of online relationship management thing barely existed, crazy thinking about how it affects people now.

    People developing facebook apps do not have access to information like who viewed your profile so its not possible to create an app that gives you your top views, top followers etc.

    (most of those apps seem to base it on who has posted on your wall, or commented/liked your posts)

    Most of those FB apps work on the basis of whose interacted with your profile most. So if you were going out with him then at the time he was probably liking/commenting/tagging a lot of on your page, as I would do now on my gfs page now, probably more than her friends do.

    These apps count up these interactions regardless of date and tell you "your biggest fan". They're not random, but they relate in no way to who "views your page", just who interacts most, and that was probably your ex on the basis that he interacted with you a lot when you were going out.

    Don't worry about it.
