I have it, but I wish I had limited my friend list to just family. I don't go out there very often and usually it is at the request of my mother. She is on there a lot!0

100% NAY! They violate your privacy and sell your personal info without your permission. Also, that site is nothing but drama. I abandoned mine long ago and don't regret it all that much.
Thats hilarious. If you dont WANT something on the internet.. DONT put it on there.
What part of that do people NOT understand?? :noway:
Violating your privacy... :laugh: They didn't come into your home, steal your photographs out of your albums and sneak back off to the internet & paste your pictures all over the web for everyone to see. YOU put them on there. Stop blaming others for violating YOUR privacy.0 -

I've been off Facebook for a little over a year--and I never liked it as much as I did MySpace, either! Too bad everyone evacuated MySpace for Facebook....
There are several things about Facebook I don't like:
--way too much crap in my newsfeed (and way too much trouble trying to streamline it to only show posts from people I cared about--they made so many changes in such a short time I felt I was always having to relearn having to ride a bicycle).
--I have friends of many varying stripes of politics, religions, ethnicities and seeing someone post "God hates (fill in the blank)" right above something for gun rights/gay rights/animal rights/whatever just got too damn overwhelming. I freely admit it. I felt I was being pummeled to death by an overload of info that I was supposed to care about but didn't.
--No privacy. Even after hours of reading through instructions and changing my settings, I never felt confident that my information was only being shared with whom I wanted it to be. And don't get me started on how Facebook is one big marketing target for millions of people. I hate the way I was shoved into a demographic and would have stuff "suggested to me" to add.
I'm with you there, and that's what's driving me away from it. However, I'm learning to use it for "business purposes" as the amount of people you can reach is just too enticing. I'm not a power user in any way, but I'm willing to play the FB-game for my purposes.0 -
I've recently learned to use the block option for ending drama on my wall. It's awesome :laugh:0

I've deleted a ton of people I don't see at all.. I've edited a lot of friends so only 'important' (non daily political") statuses would show.. I don't live near a lot of family so facebook helps I guess.. Also I'm too lazy to take what pictures i do like and put them on an sd card. So yay Facebook...for now.0

Have it, maybe take a quick peak on my phone once a day but use it mostly for setting up stuff like family reunions, get togethers and such. The games and everything else I can do without.0

I am not bashing it. I 100% understand how Facebook can serve as a useful aid to keep in contact with your peeps, but........I don't even have a Facebook and I'm 100% thankful for that for a number of reasons. I'm really curious if there is anyone else out there who is a NON Facebooker.
i don't have facebook but my bf says i treat MFP like facebook :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:0
