Problem with Facebook not saving privacy settings

I'm trying to adjust my privacy settings in Facebook. If I save the settings, go to another page, then go back to edit my privacy settings, the settings revert back to the default settings ... not the settings I saved. I've tested this in IE8, FF 3.5 and Chrome.

Any one else having problems with your privacy settings? Have you tested your privacy settings to make sure that the settings are working properly?

Kind of scary that the settings won't stay saved.

Thing with Facebook is sometimes it just doesn't work, go back in a few hours and it does. Bloody finicky website it is.

Have you checked your privacy settings to see if your settings stay?

I've a lot of trouble with the time stamps. I posted something yesterday at 0900hr for example and it told me today at 1000hrs that I posted it today at 1800hrs?? Seriously? That time zone doesn't even exist.

I've had trouble with the privacy settings in teh past. Apparently my profile and all said contact details were on public display and NOT on private for only my chums to see - it was a friend of mine who found me on FB and let me know.

Eventually it just sorted itself out.
Something memorable here.

FB tinkers with things quite a bit. This could be the problem.
Not a sheeple.
Think for yourself, don't let the magic TV box and social media do the thinking for you.
Question EVERYTHING!!
Just because you have a youtube review channel doesn't make you special.
I look forward to attending a Botcon soon only to settle matters with several idiots in person (yes this is a threat).

I would just stay off them at work. Breaking your work's firewall could be unethical and possibly illegal. You could go through a proxy site but if you're caught on the site you'll most likely be written up or even fired for breaking company protocol.

How do you switch your facebook to English? I somehow set my facebook to Japanese or some different language and I can't read anything, unless it's people photo comments, or facebook chatting with me. How do I switch it back to English?
