[QUOTE=Steak;23521213]I'm glad this world is degrading to social networking sites to be social instead of actually going outside and hanging out with friends in person.[/QUOTE] Actually i find facebook usefull for, y'know, actually sorting out where we're going to meet up and shit.
[QUOTE=James*;23544394]facebook is good but facebook chat is total shite yet everyone uses it over other messengers[/QUOTE] It's just like every IM except it's in a browser
[QUOTE=Steak;23521213]I'm glad this world is degrading to social networking sites to be social instead of actually going outside and hanging out with friends in person.[/QUOTE] as opposed to socialising on WoW
[QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;23544367]prove it[/QUOTE] I'm...I'm sorry, I'm getting too personal with this argument, it's your choice, but FB isn't a website for losers or anything like that. [editline]11:28AM[/editline] [QUOTE=James*;23544442]as opposed to socialising on WoW[/QUOTE] Better than nothing I guess
[QUOTE=Tetracycline;23544378]What's the point in even arguing with you, you won't get a FB (because you don't have any friends) for one reason or another [editline]11:26AM[/editline] The majority of people I have as friends are legit, the majority of people MOST PEOPLE have as friends are legit. Proof? Go make a facebook, and if you can, make friends.[/QUOTE] Fine. I'll tell you the real reason I don't like Facebook, yes? It's because it has diluted the meaning of friendship.
[QUOTE=Tetracycline;23544425]It's just like every IM except it's in a browser[/QUOTE] Yeh but it's crappy, it always bugs and is slow etc.
[QUOTE=James*;23544454]Yeh but it's crappy, it always bugs and is slow etc.[/QUOTE] Yeah, personally I wish the chat would stop being like that. Whenever someone sends me a message, my browser lags for a sec, and also chats sometimes disappear. Otherwise, I think it's fine. [editline]11:30AM[/editline] [QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;23544453]Fine. I'll tell you the real reason I don't like Facebook, yes? It's because it has diluted the meaning of friendship.[/QUOTE] How so?
[QUOTE=Tetracycline;23544443]but FB isn't a website for losers or anything like that.[/QUOTE] if you spend hours playing farmville on it then you are a loser by no means am I saying that all people on facebook are, but you can't deny that there are many, many social rejects on there looking for companionship that they can't find outside of their basement. [editline]07:30PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Tetracycline;23544467]How so?[/QUOTE] 10 RL friends > 1,000,000 FB friends.

Also, all my friends...don't play farmville anymore.

[QUOTE=MachiniOs;23544404]Actually i find facebook usefull for, y'know, actually sorting out where we're going to meet up and shit.[/QUOTE] use IRC much more private and configurable
[QUOTE=James*;23544511]How many people actually go on Facebook with the intention of meeting new people I only have people on mine who I met 'irl'[/QUOTE] Actually, it's pretty useful for meeting new people too.
[QUOTE=Tetracycline;23544503]Also, all my friends...don't play farmville anymore.[/QUOTE] they have seen the light [editline]07:32PM[/editline] [QUOTE=James*;23544511]How many people actually go on Facebook with the intention of meeting new people I only have people on mine who I met 'irl'[/QUOTE] you'd be surprised
The creator of Facebook is a 26 year old billionaire, lucky son of a bitch.
It's a lot more convenient than the generic "meeting them in class" or something like that
Gratz facebook
oh and I almost forgot [QUOTE=Tetracycline;23539690]Ooo, rebel[/QUOTE] ad hominem
Using all those silly terms is getting boring
[QUOTE=James*;23544394]facebook is good but facebook chat is total shite yet everyone uses it over other messengers[/QUOTE] convenience probably
[QUOTE=toxicpiano;23544663]convenience probably[/QUOTE] Definitely
yeh true but you think a site with 500 million members could build a better IM
[QUOTE=James*;23544803]yeh true but you think a site with 500 million members could build a better IM[/QUOTE] I like to think it has something to do with the massive bandwidth, but I guess not
Didn't Facebook hit 400 million users like last month? Damn.
That's like 6% of the world.. Fucking Facebook... Even my fucking GRANDPARENTS use it.
[QUOTE=Tetracycline;23544607]Using all those silly terms is getting boring[/QUOTE] you don't even know what they mean do you
[QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;23561642]you don't even know what they mean do you[/QUOTE] Now you're going to tell me that I'm an idiot for not looking up obscure terms that no one uses except for people on the internet? Anyway, I do know
