FB groups were created later on but in the early days of FB (like 2007-2009ish) it was popular to have “pages” for random things that anyone could create and they’d show up under your “likes.”

I remember there was a page titled “Pretending to text in awkward situations” that had millions of likes. There were also pages created to harass/bully people unfortunately. I remember reporting a page a kid at my HS made called “Emo kids should all d*e.”

So I think it’s entirely possible that someone made a Facebook “page” about Stefani G in college (she was in college when I was in HS) and over time the grapevine started calling it a “group” instead of a “page.”

edit: guess it was more like 2005-2006. I think I joined in 2005 & pages were already a thing

I was in high school from 2005-2009 and I remember these pages clearly too. I remember kids at school making hateful pages like the emo kids should die etc. And I'm 99% sure I followed the 'pretending to text in awkward situations' page myself. I even had a page myself called 'doing things differently when the cat is watching'

But apparently 'pages' didn't exist until 2007... but she was already starting to perform in 2007. Unless it was high school bullies still being assholes 2 years after she graduated... 

HOWEVER... as someone posted above, the page below was created in support of her in 2005, so what's the truth?

Edit: I just realised that this page is a 'group' which must have been the predecessor to 'pages' and was a thing in 2005. So the hate page could possibly have existed in 2005 in her last year of school

Hmm interesting. It’s hard to remember what came when with FB. I was thinking the groups as they exist now were like a circa early 2010s thing but looks like they could have had a version of it earlier.

I just remember the original FB had so few features I was confused about what we were supposed to use it for when I first signed up lol. No feed, no status updates, only people in your school network. You could basically just poke people.

I'm almost certain the rumours about this started way before 2016. Groups were around back at the start of Facebook. I had to tidy a load of mine up after Facebook went public.
