Title: FACEBOOK.
Post by: RCMerchant on July 20, 2012, 11:02:20 PM
I quit my facebook a long time ago.
It wont let me unlist.
Its like the nazi party.
And when I wanna get on it-it dont work-takes hours to loud up.
If everyone one would just drop f**king facebook it would be a better world.

I had a similar problem when I quit Facebook in 2009. I was told not to go near Facebook for some weeks. If I did my account wouldn't expire, or something like that. So I steered clear from Facebook for a couple of months. My account was terminated after that.

Alan and I finally successfully quit Facebook.....I think they don't want people to quit to keep their member numbers high. But we found it pointless.

I don't think not logging into Facebook for a really long time automatically deletes the account because I'm still facebook friends with a friend of mine who passed away a few years back. I think you have to do something with your settings.

never opened a facebook account, never will. e-mail does me fine. occasionally I will click a link that requires a 'facebook login' to access the content, but apart from that I don't feel like I've missed out.

last week a friend came to see me and wanted to show me photos from his round the world trip so I reluctantly let him log into his facebook account on my computer. I'm no conspiracy nut, but I'm still suspicious that facebook might now have details about me/my computer simply from that one login, even though it was my friend's account.

I mainly use it to keep in touch with old friends mainly through their groups, some I met on other message boards a long time back. Other than that, it's mostly just other people's drama.

One thing I hate about Facebook is that like buttons are everywhere on the internet. Even porn sites have them! (or so I've Heard). and with most people having family as Facebook friends that sure is gonna make a whole lot of awkward.

I have a FB page and like RC, I tried to cancel it but no go.

It's really only there so people who knew or know me can get in contact and friend me if they want to.

I'm Trevor Moses there: look for a pic of a guy with his one hand up Kermit's bum  :buggedout: and his arm around a lovely lady (my special sister, in case anyone's wondering)  :teddyr:.

I'm so sick of all those Facebook and Twitter buttons on every page on the net. 

I think what I hate most about Facebook is all these people with 100+ friends - as if anybody actually "cares" about that many people.  It's just so fake and shallow.

I have 87, which includes people off here, some family and around 25 people I regular see in town. I think the people with 500-5000 friends are much worse Jack.

While I have some old friends and family and extended family on FB, the ones I find I interact with most are people from here and from other sites I've visited for years before I was a regular here. To me, it's cool to now be able to talk to Happy on there from time to time as well as any of the other regulars from here.

I was just a victim of downsizing by a DVD/Blu-ray producer specialized in releasing Cult movies I was friends with on Facebook. He was kind enough to let people know about downsizing, as he is going to use FB for family only, and business partners.
Still feels kind of awkward, especially after my friends request was rejected by a director of a favorite B-Zombie flick of mine.
This won't encourage me in leaving FB though  :wink:

Claws...who was the director you mentioned?

I have to say, I have had several conversations on the 'Book with members from the film Redneck Zombies.

Movie: Dance of the Dead (2008). Love that flick. Too bad the director doesn't love his fans  :wink:

I have never really had any problems with Facebook. I use it to talk
to friends and friends of people I know. I don't waste a lot oftime
there playing games, though.

I discovered last week what a nasty place FB can be: my high school's FB site was posing questions about the teachers we had and with few exceptions, my teachers hated me, the feeling was mutual and I said so. Whoa: the messages I got - talk about a flame war!  :buggedout:

There's some utterly cool pages on Facebook that I would not have known about without it.  One particularly cool one about defunct places in Portland's history.  And I sometimes throw out some artwork for the hell of it.  I enjoy FB.

The only reason I have a Facebook account is because my oldest kid does. Part of being my kid is being cyber-stalked by your dad.

For the most part I can't stand it. Its a new way for people to share spam. I hate seeing reposts (or whatever they are called), and I really don't care to know that your going to a coffee shop, or what websites you like. I'm really thinking Bout unfriending everyone except my kid.

Yup.  :cheers:  Some nifty stuff out there that I would not have encountered otherwise.  It's fun.  Besides, it's my coffee time with Bug and he'd never understand if I stopped indulging.   :wink:

I got hammered yesterday for comments I made about our national cricket team losing yet again at the World Cup: I cannot believe that (a) my comments were unjustified and (b) so-called friends of mine would try to silence me.

If I vanish off FB, you all know where to find me. Right here. :smile:

You can make them 'disappear' you know.  Which means you don't have to go.  But I do understand how you feel.   :bluesad:

I am staying on for a while longer: I apologized (with a hint of sarcasm) that I was sorry for my outburst at how our useless cricket team had failed yet again (after the tournaments in 1992, 1996, 1999, 2003, 2007, 2011 and now) and it seems I have been forgiven. It is shocking that I never reflected on anything except the team's abject failure and yet I was called horrible names and told to get off people's walls.

That is why I love this place so much: the peeps here are family.  :smile:
