If sometimes the bills don’t add up, you’re right – here’s why
It can happen that sometimes the total number of friends you have in Facebook it does not correspond to reality. If you have more than one question, know that you may be right. An impression that is reflected when a new user asks for friendship and going to spy on mutual friends you see that there are fewer than those indicated in the notification. But even if count one by one friends you have on your list (even if it will take a while) you will often notice that the the number does not match with the total number of contacts reported by the site.
The reason is that the social the network includes in the total number of friends also deactivated accounts (not deleted). Up Facebook in fact, it is possible to temporarily deactivate your account without wanting to cancel it for various reasons (long distance from the computer, simple “pause to reflect“, etc …). A useful feature used by those who are far from Facebook and would like to go back without it register from scratch but simply by entering your credentials and reactivating the account. But it usually happens that it is the Facebook team itself that deactivates some users for infractions of the regulations, also in this case Facebook deactivates and does not delete profiles.
So Facebook also takes into account these accounts in the number of your friends and does it for a very specific reason. In this way you can decide to delete the friendship with an account with which we do not interact and that we discover is deactivated or not used. If Facebook did not take these users into account (by removing them directly from our list) we would no longer have the possibility of interact with themexcept asking for friendship again. If you want give it a try You can scroll through the list of your friends and search (for example) for those who have not set up a profile picture. Clicking onIf the account is disabled, you will get a warning message like the one in next photo!
