Since we reached the maximum number of friends, We decided to create a new profile but this time on Facebook. No limits, less bugs and very light. You can visit our profile at http://profile.to/feuguards/ and become a fan of our page. Thanks

Hello guys, since we reached the maximum number of friends (3000), friend requests are will be hold temporarily. We are applying this profile to fan profile. Thanks and have a nice day.

Hello guys, I changed the account’s email from Yahoo! to Gmail. The new email now is guardsatwork@gmail.com. The reason for this migration was the multiple forwarding feature of Gmail that the Yahoo doesn’t have. Thanks schoolmates!

Regards,
Moderator

Okay… This is the moderator of this account speaking. We all know that this account was created to give our comments or I can say complaints to some guards in Far Eastern University and in East Asia College as well. By the way guys, I’m now part of the university’s alumni and because of that, this account will be updated sometimes, I guess.

Anyway, what I want to say is that, I need your help. If you have some stolen pictures of guards in the university, mind if I ask you to contribute that to this account. Just submit it to the "Submit your photos here" album and I will accept it for sure. Also, a little favor if you can add this account in your featured friends. :-)  Thanks and good luck to you guys.

By the way, please take care while shooting some guards. They’re hunting me.

Before anything else, many students
, faculties, security officers and administrators
don’t know what are the right of taking pictures.

1. Anyone in a public place can take pictures of anything they want. Public places include parks, sidewalks, malls, etc. Malls? Yeah. Even though it’s technically private property, being open to the public makes it public space.
2. If you are on public property, you can take pictures of private property. If a building, for example, is visible from the sidewalk, it’s fair game.
3. If you are on private property and are asked not to take pictures, you are obligated to honor that request. This includes posted signs.
4. Sensitive government buildings (military bases, nuclear facilities) can prohibit photography if it is deemed a threat to national security.
5. People can be photographed if they are in public (without their consent) unless they have secluded themselves and can expect a reasonable degree of privacy. Kids swimming in a fountain? Okay. Somebody entering their PIN at the ATM? Not okay.
6. The following can almost always be photographed from public places, despite popular opinion:
   • accident & fire scenes, criminal activities
   • bridges & other infrastructure, transportation facilities (i.e. airports)
   • industrial facilities, Superfund sites
   • public utilities, residential & commercial buildings
   • children, celebrities, law enforcement officers
   • UFOs, the Loch Ness Monster, Chuck Norris
7. Although “security” is often given as the reason somebody doesn’t want you to take photos, it’s rarely valid. Taking a photo of a publicly visible subject does not constitute terrorism, nor does it infringe on a company’s trade secrets.
8. If you are challenged, you do not have to explain why you are taking pictures, nor to you have to disclose your identity (except in some cases when questioned by a law enforcement officer.)
9. Private parties have very limited rights to detain you against your will, and can be subject to legal action if they harass you.
10. If someone tries to confiscate your camera and/or film, you don’t have to give it to them. If they take it by force or threaten you, they can be liable for things like theft and coercion. Even law enforcement officers need a court order.

What to do if you’re confronted?

• Be respectful and polite. Use good judgement and don’t escalate the situation.
• If the person becomes combative or difficult, think about calling the police.
• Threats, detention, and taking your camera are all grounds for
  legal or civil actions on your part. Be sure to get the person’s name,
  employer, and what legal grounds they claim for their actions.
• If you don’t want to involve the authorities, go above the person’s
  head to their supervisor or their company’s public relations department.
• Call your local TV and radio stations and see if they want to do a story about your civil liberties.
• Put the story on the web yourself if need be.

Hello students, I just want to thank you all for the support
specially those students who hate us. Since there will be no person who
will manage our profile now, we decided to make our profile become a
fan profile here in Friendster. We need to create a blog as one of the
requirements for the application for the fan profile. I just want to
ask for your little support, just make us on the list of your featured
friends. In that way, we can have many friends both in FEU and East
Asia College.

Also, support us by submitting your stolen pictures of guards in FEU
campus. Our profile now will update monthly. Thank you for your
support. Love you all! By the way congratulations to the graduates of
FEU - East Asia College last May 10, 2008. I will miss you all.
