Fantazzztic!

5 Years ago Friendster a social networking site becomes a revolutionary networking portal amongst the netizens of this country. Almost everyone I met has a friendster profile account. Years later friendster turned into a bug infested slash advertisement bombarded social community sites. To the point that you cannot even add your new friend request no matter what you do. Sometimes friendster is even preventing you to register because your cookie in your browser is turned off even if it’s on and so on and so forth. I even heard a virus attacks.

If you are working in a fast faced marketing oriented environment and one of your task is to keep the possible consumers or target users aware about it by creating a fan profile (supported by various social community sites such as facebook, friendster and myspace) then read this.

I really don’t know if they have something against me or at least about the product that I represent but every time I requested a conversion of my “personal profile” (Normal Account Profile) those guys behind the fan profile department keeps on rejecting my conversion with the same reason not once but thrice!

Upon requesting the system will automatically tells you that you need to wait for a maximum of 72 hours before they made a decision about your conversion application. The problem is the 72 hours of worth of waiting is only a fiction just to make you hope.  Yes you need to wait more than the designated time ranging from 5 days to almost a month! If you are unfortunate enough you will receive a message like this “Thanks for your interest in Friendster Fan Profiles. It appears your profile is a personal profile or did not contain enough content (a primary photo, information about yourself or your organization) for us to make a decision. We have not converted your profile into a Fan Profile.” Like I said earlier, I applied for a conversion for three times in different situations; I am a hundred percent sure that I fulfilled every little things that they required for the conversion but in the end I keep on receiving this message.

Is it an auto reply from a lazy customer support? I guess so?  If they visited my profile to be converted or even the fan profile request form they will see all of the requirements they need! A primary photo, a primary photo you mean? If you really did visit my profile you will clearly saw I have a primary photo which is the LOGO of our product.  Aside from that I have at least 37 Photos ranging concept arts, promotional pictures, and actual screen shot of the product? So since when did I lack a primary photo or are this people expecting me to put a picture of a person to promote my product which is “SOFTWARE”. It is this “kind of software” as I selected to your CATEGORY. Did they even check my profile in the first place? Oh boy they said I don’t even have a primary photo! Even my background picture and the video in my profile clearly state the nature of the product I am promoting!

Information about myself, Hell yeah what about those! I even provided a very brief description about the product, the company behind it. Are they expecting me to create a long novel regarding those even if they have a character limit? I even provided the links of my official website, official blogs and even the products social networking link portal! All of the information I supplied is adequate enough.

I keep on wondering why you keep approving that unauthentic profile in short posers while I an authentic promoter/owner of the profile am being rejected. Maybe because of they don’t believe in my identity. Well if that’s the case they are free to drop us an email regarding this thru our official email.

Now they want me to email them for reconsideration and for them to take a second look. Well fine! But how long will I wait? For 5 days? 3 weeks?  Or worst never.

Anyway readers “Pa AdD POoH Ah AnD Pa TesTi NaH RiN PoOoh Ah!”. Better stick to Facebook.
