[QUOTE=Tacooo;29352687]I dont want to see the retards that can't spell and post shitty videos and updates every minute.[/QUOTE] dont add them then

I think I made a facebook page to get some rewards on another website.

People are like olololo what are you antisocial ololo when I say that I only have 50 friends. I don't friend people if they aren't real friends or classmates. How the hell could anybody find that dumb?

I have no use for FB and most likely never will.

All my friends and family that I need to communicate with use skype.

I started using facebook more once I started paying for my own gas. Most people I know that fight the FB movement are either A) not old enough to pay for their gas B) live close to most people they know or C) Have no friends.

I use facebook for stalking purposes only.

I can't be bothered to make an account if there's something so important that I absolutely need to know about it then someone will just message over skype about it or something [editline]22nd April 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=XplodingNoggin;29352547]Fun fact: Ville means City, so retards on Facebook are actually playing Citycity.[/QUOTE] [img]http://media.giantbomb.com/uploads/1/19739/692236-f_big_large.jpg[/img] got nothing on this

I don't see how posting stuff on your Facebook is being an attention whore

[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;29358282]I don't see how posting stuff on your Facebook is being an attention whore[/QUOTE]Usually when you post stuff you want people to see, thus attention. Depending on how often you post, that can be considered whoring

I used to have facebook but I closed it because I didn't really need it and I never went on anyway

[QUOTE=oranges283;29358513]I used to have facebook but I closed it because I didn't really need it and I never went on anyway[/QUOTE] As far as I know you can't close facebook. If you log in again, it's right back to normal

I like facebook I met my gf on there by stalking her(i found her on the 'people you might know' list but tbh i didn't know her i added her because she was cute)(I told her after we started going out though, a bit awkward but it was fine) i keep in contact with my friends who don't live here anymore and sometimes we have meet ups that i otherwise wouldn't have known about unless i had a facebook.

I don't really like Facebook, and I don't use it more than once every 3 months or so. It's pretty obnoxious to paint me as someone who needs to 'get over myself' just for that reason. Anyone who jumps to conclusions like that needs to get over themselves. I'm not the one judging people.

Facebook got me my first GF

[QUOTE=johan_sm;29358437]Usually when you post stuff you want people to see, thus attention. Depending on how often you post, that can be considered whoring[/QUOTE] Yes but some of you guys don't seem to think of it as 'sharing' as most people on Facebook do. If I say on my Facebook that I'm going to the Iron Maiden show, I expect my friend who likes Iron Maiden to comment on it; It's not like I want everyone to care about it. I usually see everything my friends posted and pay attention to one or two of them.

I don't use facebook for anything other than talking to friends, the games and applications on there I find incredibly shit. As a tool to talk to friends though it's great, much better than shit like myspace. [editline]22nd April 2011[/editline] the line between being overeager to share stuff and being an attention whore is pretty thin, though it's no worse than he shit that goes on on this forum

I found a really good video about facebook on youtube a few months ago, with a guy who didn't talk but had a bunch of pieces of cardboard with writing on them, which explained why you shouldn't use facebook. I'm not really for or against it; I'm actually pretty apathetic about it.

Reason why I don't use facebook is because I can't be arsed to do anything with it.

Reasons I don't have facebook: 1. Don't need it 2. Don't want it 3. Not motivated for it

I used to have one and go on from time to time but then I realized I never posted status updates and cared little for my friends. I see them enough anyway to know whats going on with them I don't need to see it 24/7. So I stopped going and deleted my account and spent more time with my friends in real life.

I've stayed away from facebook since it automaticly seems to make 9 out of 10 people mentally retarded I'd rather call my friends or talk with them in real life

It seems almost everyone under 17 talks like "aw dawg lts pla sum COD 2nite LAWL iehm soooooooooooooooooooooooo good ey deed lek a 360 noskjopppezzzzz" or something along those lines. Facebook is an alright site if you don't have retarded friends.

I'm planning on deleting my Facebook account when I get to 10th grade anyway (or, god forbid, someone in my school finds out I have one).

[QUOTE=Murkrow;29277047]I have an account just for the sake of preventing identity theft and checking a group that has news related to my interests. Other than that I don't use it because I'm a forever alone twat my other excuse is that i refuse to use it until https is forced on every single page[/QUOTE] But if they do that then school's "Shield" won't be able to block it

I am afraid I will get 'addicted'. I can easily talk to my friends without it. I have nothing against it, just don't want to use it.

[QUOTE=tier56;29366101]I'm planning on deleting my Facebook account when I get to 10th grade anyway (or, god forbid, someone in my school finds out I have one).[/QUOTE] Make one after school though, they can be helpful to keep track of people.

[QUOTE=archangel125;29277298]Facebook's stupid. Why? Because when employers do background checks on you, something as simple as being ASSOCIATED with someone who has a criminal record, on facebook, can bar you from getting the job. Fact. And since I'm trying to become a police officer, I'd rather not have anything to point out so obviously that I have friends who haven't stayed on the straight and narrow.[/QUOTE] Haha a friend of mine got suspended from work because his boss saw his rediculous escapades on facebook. Yeah I know it was wrong, he had no right to suspend my friend for something outside of work and with his own life ... but the fact still stands ... facebook got him suspended from work. I got facebook due to peer pressure ... I never got it in the first place because I knew I would have no use for it. Why? I'm a loner. Just some old friends from highschool and current here and there "friends" I see were the ones peer pressuring me. Sometimes I log on to see what my old friends are up to, how much they hang out and not include me. Oh well.

F[i]orget[/i] you, Facebook is not a NECESSITY in the world we live in today. In fact, life can be much easier without one. See how Facebook helps you in more rural areas where people don't have internet. It doesn't. [editline]23rd April 2011[/editline] (edited for salty language)
