    Alright XoObies I'm looking for an old friend from a lifetime ago, and all I have is a picture, who thinks they can get me a name and find said person on this great series of tubes we call the net? With only a photo :mad:_@:​
     
  2. I dont have access to facial recognition software and FBI databases, and I think my buddies who do would question why I want to run such a thing and probably wouldnt do it :/


    Also, stalking an old ex GF usually ends in jail time. :p

    any more info you can give us?
     
  6. His name wouldn't happen to be Ben Hayes would it?

    I have been good at finding people or information with the little bit of info given to me. If you want PM the info. Any details how u met where when. uh hints of their name first and last what they were wearing. Literally the tiniest bit of info makes a big difference in finding stuff/people.

    Edit: saw above post nvm haha

    It was an old friend from my childhood, we grew up together for a number of years then we both moved, then I joined the AF. So I got around ;)
     
  15. ...If you know their name, just type it into facebook, then sort. Basically the best your going to get without any tools. Secondary, type old emails into google, it picks up database information sometimes for forums, check dates and see if anything is recent.

    Good luck...I guess.

    P.S. Stalking is a no no

    Hmm not a bad idea, I didn't know about the email thing, but when its a simple name thats very common, and no location, it makes sorting by name freaking impossible lol, but the problem has been solved.
     
  17. Yeah but if they put their hometown on facebook you could look up their name and it will say blahblah from orlando fl or wherever you knew they were from.

    I have been looking for my middle school crush and best friend throughout junior high. We lost touch a few months after we ended up going to different high schools and her family moved 2-300 miles away. Been looking for her ever since. I did all the above ideas,.... let me tell you this one is one of those "the one that got away" type of girls. Either way glad you found your friend :)
