    HI,

    Only 'friends' that are based in Ireland are appearing on my online list of friends available to chat.

    Is there some sort of bug or issue that it is not allowing my UK or USA friends to be shown on the list? (I know they are online)

    They're ignoring you.
    I suggest that you find some new friends.

    Is your Facebook username the same as your boards one?

    Those Thai birds you accepted as friends have actually been bought off the internet as mail order brides.
    They're probably living in Connemara at the moment but are not allowed to have male friends.

    A lot of them have their nuts & flange taped to their arse.
    Just so you don't try too hard only to be disappointed.

    No.
    I treat Facebook with the same disdain as I treat Twitter.
    Pointless rubbish.

    Its to do with the time differnce..If you have friends in the USA for example they will only get your message 6 hours later..So they just disabled the 'foreign friends chat filter' system

    No, I openly hate them.
    I had high expectations that this would be a Facebook hating thread. I'm bitterly disappointed.
