Look, we’ll say this one more time, and one more time only: if you’re having a shindig to celebrate the passing of another year, don’t put all the details on Facebook. It’ll only end badly for everyone involved — like it did for this revelling idiot.
The recipe, as always, was exactly the same: douchebag decides to have massive birthday party; douchebag advertises the party to all his douchebag-friends on Facebook and Twitter (and probably Instagram and MySpace and Bebo and Friendster, to be honest); thousands of people turn up to nick douchebag’s booze, and spill out onto all the surrounding streets; police turn up (not because they like a free party, mind), and get pissy at massive crowd of drunken morons; douchebag responsible for the whole thing gets in trouble with the law (in this case, a 12-month community order and a 8-week curfew, for “causing a public nuisance”).
It’s exactly the same, every time. So unless you’re one of these people who wears their ASBO as a badge of honour, DON’T PUT YOUR PARTIES ON FACEBOOK. Got it? Ok. Good. [Telegraph]

Woop! Woop! That's the Sound of 'Haven't Got a Clue'
I’ve seen this film.
By all means advertise it on G+ where you can closely control exactly who can see and be aware of the details!
And the added bonus that nobody uses it, so can’t find the details to crash it
There are plenty of people on here who use it daily
Of my Facebook friends, about a quarter are on there and less than a tenth actually use it.
Isn’t viewing Facebook events limited to the people you invite?
Or is this someone just putting it out publically?
Probably morons not setting their account to private.
I’m more surprised that people haven’t been pranked with masses showing up at their homes for parties they didn’t advertise on Facebook.
Well, it probably has happened just the people who turn up actually have a party and then trash the place. I know I would.
