only problem is FB will turn over who did it, they will subsequently get busted for wasting police time..

That’d be a tough one to prove in court surely? They’d have to get evidence that the person posting it did it with the intention of misleading the police (which is likely to be a little difficult when all it really is is the police wasting their own time by believing what they read on t’intrawebs).

Might be a little difficult for you if you rang them with a tip off about a rave and they tracked you down – then maybe you’d get it for wasting OB hours, but don’t think any court would convict a case where the OB think you posted it deliberately up on some website you thought they would probably use to send them somewhere else. Even the most up tight judge would laugh that out of their court (and some of the more mental ones would likely do the OB concerned for contempt, or wasting court time or such)…

TBH the more I think about it, the better the idea seems – almost a genuine use for a farcebook. If we ever end up having trouble getting bacon free sites to party I may well consider doing it (only consider though, as actually doing it would be a terribly naughty thing to, and not something I would ever be involved in) :wink:.
