Alan Medic Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 I'm no big user of FB but have found it useful in getting/keeping in touch with mostly extended family who I haven't seen in years.Recently I tagged a very old family photo with a couple of the names of people who are related. It was the first time I tagged anything. Next thing I find others are tagging people in the photo (it was a big group photo)who I hadn't, which I thought was fair enough. Then a couple tagged themselves in it, even though they weren't in the picture. One was a niece and the other a cousin. I found this a bit weird.Is this normal practice on FB if there is such a thing? I quickly found I could change my settings so it couldn't be done without my permission. It still left me a little baffled though. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/26406-facebook-etiquette/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Medic Posted October 27, 2012 Author Share Posted October 27, 2012 Right, thanks. I've probably p***** my niece right off then as I removed her tags.

KalamityKel Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 she should've shared or nicked it of you for her own use then ;-) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/26406-facebook-etiquette/#findComment-587692 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otta Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 She may not know, as she wouldn't get a notification that you'd removed her. However, if she tried to tag herself again, it would tell her she wasn't allowed as she'd been removed.just tag her in it, and then she'll think you're lovely and that you wanted her to be properly included.I put an old black & white photo of my uncle and (now deceased) aunt on their wedding day on there and tagged their kids & grandkids, some of whom live in America. It's just to draw their attention to it.People used to have to request that they be tagged in your photo, but these days can just go ahead and add themselves.

The Minkey Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 And you can also change the settings so if someone tries to tag you in a photo you will be notified for your permission first.
